    Design the official Cybertruck Owners Club BAW T Shirt

    It should just say, "BAW'ler". Those who get it will get it. Those who don't, won't.

    Rumors of Tesla wanting to replace Elon Musk [LOCKED DUE TO POLITICS AND TWITTER TALK]

    Consider also the source of the video. That channel's credibility has taken a nose dive as of late in my opinion. Enough so that I unsubscribed a few weeks ago.

    Will You Wrap Your Cybertruck?

    Glare off the SS at this altitude is likely to be retina scorching. So yeah, probably a wrap just to cut the glossiness.

    How old are you?

    Poll needs a new option: "Old enough to know better, young enough to do it anyway"

    Yoke vs. steering wheel

    I haven't driven the Lexus, so I cannot say from firsthand experience. I did watch the EE video, though, and yes the distinction between the Lexus and the Tesla implementation is night and day. Okay, I'll bite. Your conflation of glass cockpits with sidestick controllers is a little bit...

    What's a deal-breaker for you?

    There are definitely features I will be disappointed not to have if they fail to be included. V2L in at least 240V/30A, for example. The ramp. For my use case the midgate would definitely be a huge plus. That and the Ultium replaceable / upgradable battery modules are the only pluses in the...

    How will you take your dog?

    I had had my first dog less than a week when an idiot came across four lanes right in front of me to try to take an exit. Me and another car in the adjacent lane, who had a dog loose in the car, both had to go full panic stop to avoid the idiot. I had my dog in a chest harness linked to...

    Poll: How often do you use your frunk? (Or see yourself using it)

    Define "use".... There are items in the trunk constantly, but they are accessed a couple of times a month only. Great storage place for emergency supplies, cheap items that could get crushed in a crash, etc. I won't store anything valuable in there, considering how easy it is to pop the trunk...

    You're driving down the road and see a Cybertruck - what do you do?

    Smudge my glasses real fast, so that the real life sighting looks sufficiently potato-cam-ish to match what I'm used to?

    Are they going to name the frunk?

    I find that to be general-lee awesome.

    Are they going to name the frunk?

    Cybertruck + bOOT = COOT When it breaks, you have to find a Coot'er to fix it.

    Cybertruck release date?

    4-20 Notice I didn't specify of what year. My second guess is 12-31-23

    How can this work? (Rube Goldberg charging setup!)

    I suspect the J1772 to NEMA 14-50 has a built in resistor to mimic a car signaling "ready to charge" on the control pilot to ground circuit. That convinces the first EVSE to close it's contactors and energize as far as the 14-50 receptacle. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SAE_J1772 Therefore, be...

    Cybertruck Cold Weather Package??

    Didn't know about that feature of the X. It's only the X that has it so far? Wonder what the rated force it can apply and/or thickness of clear hard ice it can break is.

    Cybercatch22: Demand vs Delay

    That thread went toxically and heavily against it's OP because the OP started with a flawed premise: That Tesla could / should / would use restrictions on buyers to try to capture more revenue. If, and this is a huge if, Tesla actually cared to bother to grab a small percentage extra profit at...

    Cybertruck Cold Weather Package??

    Heated seats, steering, and wiper park position were standard on the new 2023 model Y I picked up a month ago. Worked great going over I70 in a moderate storm, haven't really been out in one of our really bad ones yet. For the Cybertruck, I'm way more worried about doors freezing shut...

    3D Printing

    This is neither legally nor morally a justification for exceeding the rights and privileges of holding a trademark, which in my opinion Honda very clearly did with that takedown request. I'm not a lawyer, but a very concerned citizen about the long term direction patents, IP, copyright, and...

    3D Printing

    I've tried TinkerCAD, FreeCAD, OpenSCAD, but I think I have settled onto OnShape as my go to. The learning curve is definitely not flat, but getting over the initial difficulties with even knowing what you have selected is worth it. You can make some very good models very quickly once you get...
