I'm not quite convinced that's the case, I think the original statement may have been misinterpreted. I read it as them looking futuristic, as the Cybertruck is, not that they have a design that is Cybertruck like/inspired.

That's the black composite bed wall, the steel bulkhead is behind it with the tonneau cover between the two. You can also see black tape covering some parts, including the armrest hole that can be seen from the interior shot.

Not really. Had they made a 'normal' truck the timeline wouldn't have been all that different.

Yes

The meme is the convoluted explanation, not that it isn't true. Cybergus mentioning FSD having to backtrack from where it is to where it knows it isn't (point of GPS loss) reminded me of it.

What doesn't make sense is having two different caps, it should be one single cap at $80k. By restricting anything other than trucks/SUV's to $50k you are effectively disincentivizing the purchase of more efficient vehicles.

Looks like it's there:

Likely a nod to 4680 but the code usually has no relation to cell diameter, for example BT00 on the Model Y 4680 or BT42 for the Panasonic 2170 Model Y LR. That's the track for the vault cover.

It's a meme, guess it flew over everyone's head *badum tss* https://knowyourmeme.com/memes/the-missile-knows-where-it-is

Love all these subtle 'digs'. The F-150/Tundra wraps, the RC engineering proto labeling for those critiquing them as if they are production trucks and now the bike in the bed aimed at Rivian :ROFLMAO: https://www.rivianownersforum.com/threads/rivian-adds-r1t-tailgate-bike-pad-to-gear-shop.6169/

FSD knows where it is at all times. It knows this because it knows where it isn't. By subtracting where it is from where it isn't, or where it isn't from where it is, it obtains a difference, or deviation. The navigation system uses deviations to generate corrective commands to drive from a...

Sounds like the author has a sub micron problem of his own

The graph is representative, just not quantifiable. Whether the difference shown is meaningful is a different matter. I only brought this up because of the often repeated claim that the tabless 4680 charges faster, relative to a 2170. You're missing the point. You can't say it's negligible...

Same tire as in these photos I believe? Possibly smaller than 35"?

I'll try with images since words aren't working:

That's not correct, the dashed line does not represent the 2170 cell. The dashed and solid lines only represent "1 tab" and "tabless", they're not specific to any single cell diameter, that is determined by the value on the x axis. What the graph indicates is that a 4680 cell with a single tab...

That's the point, nearly flat, but there is a slight increase relative 2170 cells. How big that slight increase is in terms of time we cannot quantify given the y axis is not labeled. It enables fast charging not faster charging.

It's a bit of a misconception, the tabless design does reduce internal resistance but it is negated by the increase in cell diameter. This graph from battery day actually shows a slight supercharge time increase, although it's hard to quantify given the y axis is not labeled.

I never stated you can have more CT's than you have cells, I just explained in the post you quoted that CT ramp outpacing 4680 ramp means that cells are the limiting factor. CT output has to match limited cell production, hence dual motor instead of tri motor allows them to increase that output...
