Thank you for the explanation, Crissa. I'm just not used to discussing my opinions as fact. If I would ever do that, I would be called out and asked to cite my sources. I guess that is some of the problems we have run into in the world today, where so many lies were sewn as truth, and this...

A great addition, glad Elon saw the value per cost/effort. Functionality like 4 wheel steering are great, computer controlled; I just hope there is a lock-out above a certain mph, set by you, defaulted at a conservative mph. You certainly don't need to accidentally crab crawl suddenly at...

That is EXACTLY what I am saying, that it could be done in many ways. Know, I have not said Tesla sucks and will let us die in their new Cybertruck. What I said was, "How small of a hit will it take to total my vehicle?". How did you fail to see that? Is that my failing logic? Please don't...

I understand that monocrystalline PV cells are fine without a direct hit from the sun, in fact it even does well in partial overcast; and polycrystalline requires a direct hit from clear sun or the effectiveness of the charge will suffer. Let's hope it's the monocrystalline PV cells they use...

I'm thinking it could have a good use in The Boring Company... maybe it work as a rhoomba for them ?

Right, but even Munro has seen the final Cybertruck. Nobody but the design and Elon, likely. And, who knows how much has changed - finer details, structure, shrinkage?, additions, changes to allow for certain options allowed, etc. So, the only way anyone should say, "This is how it's built"...

The crash absorbing structures are fine, but this is not a Cybertruck. So, even if this was whatever model is most closely related to the CT, this is still not a picture of the CT underbody. So, it's not hard fact that the CT will have any of this, though maybe some. I'm also not saying it...

See, I don't get it. This is not necessarily fact. This all makes sense to Crissa, or whomever came up with it; but, unless it comes from Elon or direct from design plans, it's a big maybe. And, last I checked, maybe isn't fact. See how this is wielded like a truth baton. It's not even...

I guess I'm resurrecting the all but dead. But, this is some real input. I actually think, that if you put it to the people, what do they want a super fast, capable Cybertruck with 4 motors, one at each wheel; or 1,000 mile range - most would choose the 1,000 mile range. simple

I'm just laying low and taking it slow. Not going to stress out about this or that, like I see some around here doing. I worked in the fire department for a number of years, and one thing you learn there is that you will get something when you get it. That simple. And, that is how I'm...

Sounds to me like China is stuck making crap, even if it's someone else's. Just saying. They generally hack and make crap, because they know stupid Americans buy based on reviews and cost. So, they fake a bunch of reviews and sell it for cheaper by a couple dollars. They aren't used to, for...

Fail in my book. When deployed, it looks as if the rear door on that side cannot be accessed. Well, in that configuration, it might make most sense to put the fridge in the rear seat. Not sure if that system can be put on that "T" rail backwards, to possibly allow use of the rear door. No...

Absolutely, the battery pack is of huge concern from many angles. However, my primary concern with this thread is how much of an impact is going to total this tough as nails truck. Many of us are buying this as a final vehicle in our lives. Is that even feasible? If it has designed failure...

I don't believe Elon sees ICE vehicles truly as competition; but, more as obstacles in the way of a necessarily EV future. It's simply a matter of perspective. peace

I could see the front end being shortened, without losing any or much of the frunk. And, some passenger compartment can be lost without suffering greatly. Just under 7". Easily hidden mostly in the first area, then a little in the latter. peace

I think we are trying too hard to keep thinking of the Cybertruck "in a box". It's the most radically designed production vehicle to date, completely out of the box in it's conceptualization, and beyond what anyone thought - yet, we still keep trying to make it wreck just like every other car...

That is my point here, sir. The entire frame is exposed and therefore at risk. I want to know if it's, "the toughest truck out there", or, "creased to fold and act as crumple zones". It cannot be all things, lest we cease to work within the confines of physics. So, which is it? I have a...

This has been for quite some time. Now, maybe they ran out, and Elon is hedging his chip bet on his Tequila. Interesting

Actually not, if you read the threads. The info contained here is more about the exoskeleton, which the M3 has not. So, not helpful in the least. That information is pertinent to the Model 3 and did it fall down an embankment or off a cliff, with no friction other than the car itself, through...

I truly understand your points. I am hopeful, but also cautious. I really would like to see Telsa, and primarily Elon, bring forth updated information, and full information regarding everything he can. regarding the Cybertruck But, I also know he's not going to want to put out info that leads...
