Rode this for over an hour yesterday, with a half hour ride on the Livewire One in-between the Del Mar rides (for comparison). It is a bit tall seat height, but its really comfortable and fast/easy to maneuver. Silent compared to the Livewire One. Speed/Acceleration comparison between the...
More importantly.. lets analyze the attire to compare the interior photo to this one. Both wearing skinny pants. One blue, one tan. Both wafer thin. One wearing blue vans, the other wearing black shoes with leather laces. Could be the same! But I bet all the engineers and forward facing...
The massive dash has been apparent since the first real view after the reveal day. But what is still unknown and which I am really curious about every time I see that incredibly massive dashboard... how far under that dashboard does the frunk go?! I hope it goes all the way! That would equate...
Sure the triangle window helps, but real world experience is that the pillars are big enough to block your vision and cause you to miss things in your sight line you should absolutely be able to see. Countless times I've missed noticing people behind the pillar even though I could see part of...
Those pillars are thicc!
I thought the pillars on my ridgeline were sightline restricting. When turning in my ridgeline i have to literally lean over back and forth to make sure im not going to run someone over. These take it to the next level. Thank god there are cameras everywhere and...
Air bags. Also a second one above the window. Take a look at any modern car pillars and you will see smaller plastic covers for air bags in the same spots.
There was more ribbing in my post than actual ire. ;) The added dig was more commenting on others criticisms of the article. Your points I was more directing the teslarati feedback towards. Some of the other criticisms were nitpicking to death details that really don't mean much.
I reposted...
The source is way more "journalism" than most of the articles reposted here from teslarati, elektrec, etc. who literally do exactly what you say. They post our discussions on here word for word as their articles.
Everyone hates on the FUD from MSM, and now you finally get a MSM source giving...
The opposite of FUD from a mainstream industry source:

Tesla's Cybertruck is finally coming. It's going to rattle rivals and transform the EV market as we know it.
Cybertruck is set to be "the Hummer of the 2020s."
The...
You can't make it $1k non refundable without confirmed and locked specs and a total price that is locked in at time of$1k deposit. Otherwise you are fooling yourself as a company that you are getting any more than a handful of rich guys who money of no object for. Cause you are just robbing...
I did not expect anything more than nothing. But the existence of this thread suggests many others did.
I will say the truck looks really refined and production ready (at least on the outside) now.
That makes me happy.
Sometimes a pen should just remain a pen. Shovels do not need to be redesigned. Those things are butt ugly. Franz needs to tone down his need to design everything in "giga" style.
Because the person without a basic understanding of off-road conditions that was allowed to drive a multi-million dollar Cybertruck offroad is the person in charge who no one wants to say no to.
That's actually what I'm looking forward to. A typical car forum where most discussions are about useful hacks, mods and cool accessories. Instead of the constant debates on how this thing should be optimized for highly specific niche uses. Cause then everyone will actually be using it and...
Cost. That's it. Significantly more than a minor increase over announced prices and I'll be looking at a model y, or another brands options.
None of the features or specs are a deal breaker for me. I love the looks, even as it gets uglier!
At it's ugliest, is still way cooler looking than my...
You know I noticed the same reflection after I posted the comment you reference and started thinking similarly to the points you just made. But that one photo seems to contradict countless videos we've all watched.. so who knows. I sure don't.
I've also never seen it in person so I'm just...
This is literally the first argument in favor of wrapping a cybertruck that I can agree with. I stand corrected on people's desires to wrap.
Never thought about it before, but yeah the CT skin could be really damn annoying to oncoming traffic in the blazing sun, in the same way that led...
