  1. Stainless steel thickness not 3mm but UP TO 1.8mm thick. Still stop bullets from .45-cal Tommy gun and Special Forces 9mm MP5 machine pistol

    I certainly believe you’re correct, but as it’s their video with their captioned verbiage, some clarification would seem to be prudent. (I’m wondering if ā€œNot all variantsā€ was intended as a CYA declaration regarding projectiles and velocities. Would make more sense.)
  2. Since it’s Steer By Wire it could Crab Walk — right?

    Well crap, now legal has to start over.lol
  3. Since it’s Steer By Wire it could Crab Walk — right?

    Maybe? Possible it’s a TM issue, and legal is working through the upcoming announcement of ā€œCyber ShimmyTMā€
  4. OFFICIAL 2024 Cybertruck Pricing, Specs, Mileage/Range, Dimensions, Weight, Info

    It put a burr under my saddle for a couple minutes too.lol I told myself to just write it off as them not meaning it that way. It never even occurred to them.
  5. Let's design the $49k Cybertruck

    Had a Wrangler. Drove it till the wheels nearly fell off. With the exception of the electronic sway bar disconnect that crapped out right away (I replaced it with a very cheap and reliable manual one with little effort), it required very little maintenance at all. Was tempted to get a...
  6. Let's design the $49k Cybertruck

    My ā€˜pretend’ list would be similar, but I’d: Keep the 35’s and ground clearance Offer hex wheels as an upgrade option to get rid of impractical (for my use) plastic hubcaps. Delete: steer by wire, rear wheel steering, power frunk, power tailgate, glass roof, rear screen, half the stereo...
  7. Stainless steel thickness not 3mm but UP TO 1.8mm thick. Still stop bullets from .45-cal Tommy gun and Special Forces 9mm MP5 machine pistol

    I’m pretty sure I heard Elon say it, but didn’t find a direct quote in a very cursory search. Here’s a short story about it: https://www.sae.org/news/2020/06/tesla-cybertruck-stainless-steel
  8. Cybertruck Engineering Innovations - Great Summary

    Respectfully: It was $49,900 not $59,900, and that amounts to an increase of slightly over 60%…. Not 33%
  9. How best to wire in 12VDC accessories, Like Ham Radio.

    That would be what I’d lean towards trying first. With the way components talk to each other and/or may be monitored in canbus, I’d be afraid to tap into anything that wasn’t specifically provided for tapping. It might seem to work at first, then introduce gremlins down the road.?
  10. Glass windows on Cybertruck strength tested with 2" ice ball @ 70mph (with passengers inside)

    Maybe Glock it open…. I reckon??? Don’t know how many rounds it’d take (or if even feasible depending on how it behaves as a laminate). If any early adopters are near me and want to test it, I could use different calibers, barrel lengths, and loadings on your windows.? (Realistically, you...
  11. Poll: What aspect of CT Are you Unhappy With

    https://shop.tesla.com/product/cybertruck-air-compressor-ultra-_-tire-repair-kit (Must be some really fancy plugs in that kit.lol)
  12. DISREGARD!!! Could Tesla adjust the "EST" prices favorably when the configurations open?

    ?ā€ā™‚ļø Maybe. I dunno. I’m holding on to my order just in case it favorably changes by the time I ever get contacted. If it stays the same though, I’ll eject.
  13. Poll: What aspect of CT Are you Unhappy With

    Dual Motor ā€œorderā€ price (for delivery in late ā€˜21) was listed as $49,900 49,900 x .6 = 29,940 (for 60%) 49,900 + 29,940 = $79,840 Current list price for the ā€œAWDā€ (no longer called ā€œDual Motorā€) is $79,990. So the increase was very slightly over 60%.

    Ditto. I was really wanting a dual CT, but if the price is really 60% higher when/if I ever get contacted to complete the order— ? No Way ? I understand money printing and inflation, but 60% in 4 years?!?!? ?
  15. Cybertruck tonneau bed cover water tight / leak test (w/ employee in closed vault) šŸ’¦

    Excellent! A highly efficient alternative to gas. The lack of a tailpipe and hose will be offset by autogenous CO2 production.?
