  1. Aged Stainless steel looks awesome.

    I saw a wrapped landrover the other day - the model was about five years old - wrap looked horrible, cumulative damage and scuffs. after three weeks I’m loving the natural SS finish - no rust evident.
  2. Cybertruck Generates Happiness

    Yes, mine is the only Cybertruck in New Orleans, so it gets a lot of attention, but I have never seen a vehicle that generates as many smiles and happy faces. Thumbs up, air bump, the joy on seeing this vehicle is infectious. Crosses racial lines, sex lines and age lines.
  3. Cleaning - this is going to be an adventure

    Got up this morning prepared for the task of cleaning a weeks worth of fingerprints and grime. Also prepared to put a coat of Protectaclear. Power sprayer - put on a layer of Dawn suds. Scrubbed with microfiber towel. Power washed off. Generally big improvement but noticed there were stains...
  4. Got flipped the bird on the road

    I’ve been driving mine in New Orleans for three days. I’ve never seen a vehicle bring more smiles to people’s faces.
  5. Applying Protectaclear

    Instructions indicate you can use many solvents - but no 1 is xylene - banned in CA and pretty nasty stuff. Denatured alcohol is on the list but in my experience often has a chemical residue. What is the solvent of choice?
  6. My CT starts shivering around 76miles/hour. how is yours?

    Took delivery today; I drove sedately up to 80, no shiver. My son punched it to 105, steady as a rock. However I think it’s weird there are no aural proximity warning to objects close to sides or rear. Spent 20 minutes looking for software switch to turn that on. Can’t find it, but can’t...
  7. Took Delivery March 26; Great Experience

    Took delivery of AWD this morning, great experience, thanks to entire staff of Brandon MS! Truck was clean and well presented; red bow and smoke as it drove out the door. Good introduction and run through. Paperwork done in two minutes. The drove 220 miles home and arrived with 26% battery. Of...
  8. Took our Cybertruck to car wash (photos) + update on ProtectaClear. No fingerprints for weeks now

    Manual advises not to take to a car wash but says if you do it should only be a “touchless” carwash.
  9. Gloss Red Cybertruck by T Sportline - on 24" wheels, Nitto Recon Grappler tires, cowl lights w/ Morimoto 4Banger LED Pods

    Can you take a wrapped vehicle through a car wash? Just read not recommended in manual to take a CT through the car wash.
  10. Gloss Red Cybertruck by T Sportline - on 24" wheels, Nitto Recon Grappler tires, cowl lights w/ Morimoto 4Banger LED Pods

    Which is, in a way, and indictment of the design. SS was touted as a wonder material, but the reality is, high maintenance, subject to bizarre appearance if you are too vigorous cleaning and splotchy. nonetheless I’ll keep mine stainless for a month and then see. I’m notorious for dirty cars.
  11. Totaled Crashed Cybertruck in Tampa

    And if the Nissan got a ticket it’s open season on his insurer.
  12. Totaled Crashed Cybertruck in Tampa

    Count the panels damaged; I think they got every panel on the right side, and both bumpers.
  13. Tuesday Mar 26 is The Day!

    Just had a phone call from the delivery center wanting to verify that I will actually be there at the appointed time for delivery. Said they had an event planned. She sounds really excited! I assured them that I was just as excited. Now that I think of it this is the first vehicle I will have...
  14. Cybertruck alignment after delivery?

    Just read the alignment service manual. Definitely something only a Tesla shop should do. Can’t imagine Joe’s Alignment shop reading through these very Tesla instructions. Also would hate to be the first Cybertruck a Tesla shop had worked on. First stop I will make will be to our Tesla service...
  15. Cybertruck alignment after delivery?

    Curious about this; since it’s entirely steer by wire toe in would be a software align; camber might be adjustable but probably not in a traditional manner. Best left to a Tesla shop.
