No, the common problem with Model 3 front upper control arms was that the ball joint wasn't sealed well enough from water intrusion and eventually the grease inside would wash out and mix with water. That would cause creaking noises when going over bumps. Eventually Tesla sealed around the...

No, the unveil prices were not promised. That was what Tesla expected the prices to be when they started making and selling the Cybertruck. If you know anything about Tesla history with all of their vehicles, you know that they unveil them years before they actually make them and things change...

Battery packs are not completely sealed off. They have vent ports to relieve pressure from temperature fluctuations and in case of thermal runaway. The ports have valves that are supposed to close off there's any moisture, but they are not perfect. Think of this battery pressurization kind of...

It will have a diff anywhere that there's a motor. You might mean that the dual motor has a locking diff on both front and back. That's true based on the comment by Drew Baglino The tri motor does not have nor need locking diffs in the rear because the two motors work independently through...

2018 Tesla Model 3 LR RWD Currently have 138,572 miles on it. I love my car.

The only truck I've owned was a 1994 Dodge Dakota Sport. It had a manual transmission and 4x4, with a single cab. I loved it because I like small pickups. My dad has had a few Ford Rangers and currently has a Chevy S10. I don't really like full-sized pickups because I don't need the giant...

I can tell that the picture was taken at a lower angle, so not an accurate view of the Cybertruck height compared to the person. But I was just curious on his take of the Cybertruck height.

How tall are you?

Yeah, this leads me to believe the Tesla Semi could be around 24k lbs. Enclosed cargo trailers usually weigh around 15k lbs. Don't know how much a flatbed trailer weighs, but if around the same then 24k + 24k + 15k = 63k lbs total. I believe usual diesel trucks weigh around 20k lbs.

In one of the last lines of the video, Jay says "We gotta get a Winnebago version of this". Dan gamely says "Alright, we're on it". Probably just having some fun, but once the Semi goes on sale to the general public I'm sure someone will turn one into an RV. It won't be Tesla, though.

I also highly recommend watching Upgrade. And no, I don't think it makes sense for Tesla to make or sell a phone.

Correct, there are buttons on the steering wheel to turn on the left and right turn signals. FSD and EAP (and Navigate on Autopilot on either of them) can automatically use turn signals and change lanes for you. Plain Autopilot will not use turn signals nor change lanes for you.

The Teslas that can do Steam games have pretty much what amounts to an XBOX Series S or similar (IIRC) added in under the dashboard to handle that. That is all that component is used for. I don't need nor want that in my Cybertruck because I don't play games and I don't want unnecessary...

I'm on vacation in Corpus Christi, Texas right now and drove from northeastern Nebraska in my Model 3. The charging was quick and easy because I used the navigation and the car planned all the charging stops and charging durations along the way. The planning was right on for this 19 hour...

I, on the other hand, don't need or want the ability to play games on my Cybertruck because I don't play any games. I would rather the truck costs a little less and have less things to break. Perhaps it could be an option or only included in the highest trim level.

I also doubt that Tesla will add handles to make entry easier. Hopefully the adjustable air suspension will help. Perhaps a portable handle like these that hook into the door latch loop helps? https://www.automasterly.com/best-car-door-assist-handles/

Can you log into your Tesla account and change your address to whatever it is now? That should be the only thing you need to change.

EV only, or "electrified"? I noticed a Ford Maverick in the video, and that is only available as a hybrid (Unless it was converted :D ).

All Long Range Dual Motor Model Y (and Model 3) have the option to add Acceleration Boost.

The Performance trims of Tesla vehicles have the metal pedal covers. Many aftermarket covers to put on non-Performance.
