    Got Me A Montana VIN. Post yours.

    That is the highest VIN I’ve seen and that is great news! Production couldn’t be very strong with VINs around 1400. Production must be ramping up. Good job Montanna!

    Just got the email to order the Foundation Sseries Cybertruck!

    I'm of the opinion you should order it now or the wait for a regular CT could be a couple of years. I did not want to wait any longer. The Tesla OTA updates are pretty amazing to keep your Tesla up to date as they age. Apparently, they are amazing trucks and suspect you will not be...

    Don't worry about lower ranges your first few charging cycles! Estimated range will increase

    It runs about 85% actual to battery on my M3. I’ve seen CT numbers around 65%. And really, do u mind, I’m just running a science experiment. LOL

    Don't worry about lower ranges your first few charging cycles! Estimated range will increase

    How does the actual miles driven on the odometer compare to the change in battery miles? For example, after a charge to 250 miles, you drive 100 miles by the odometer, how many battery miles do you have left? I've seen where driving 100 actual miles can consume 150 battery miles.

    10 day review after 900 miles in my Cybertruck

    I lived in Washington State for 32 years. I-5, as all the interstate highways, are funded federally, not stately. I've been to Tucson several times and the roads are horrible. Several years ago, they had a special ballot/proposition to increase the taxes to repair the roads in Tucson. It...

    10 day review after 900 miles in my Cybertruck

    That report is BS, my two cents....

    parking into parking spots with cars in spots on both sides - anybody master this yet?

    And when practicing without cars nearby, go a little faster than normal. I knew a guy could park a truck really well and he always just zipped into the spot. Maybe that is the trick? What could go wrong?

    Cybertruck production rate ~80 units daily (currently as of 2/24/24)

    Wow, that is strange you didn't get the order offer on 12/8. And you have two Teslas already? WTF? Wonder how many others are in a similar situation. For every CT Owners club member with a low reservation #, there are 5 other people with low reservation #. (Or something like that)

    Cybertruck production rate ~80 units daily (currently as of 2/24/24)

    “Currently” 80 CT/day is great, but the delivered VIN # don’t go much above 2,000. One week (6 days production) at 80/day would be 480 vehicles. 480 vehicles would be 25% of total production in one week. This does not even include the pre-production VINs. I’m sure production is ramping up...

    parking into parking spots with cars in spots on both sides - anybody master this yet?

    It is a bit of an art. I’m not an artist. I typically park my 150 out further where there are several open spots together. I thought the RW steering would make this process of parking a lot easier.

    Noticed sanding swirls & scratches on my newly delivered Cybertruck

    You guys talk about using BKF to clean your truck like it is easy. If it is anything like hand waxing used to be, that is way too much and boring work for me. Since I’ve got a bunch of miles on my arms and body, I have no interest in hand polishing a brand new vehicle because it was messed up...

    Edmunds: Cybertruck range test achieves 334 miles! Exceeding estimated range 👍

    This is pretty funny/sad write-up by Edmonds. "Our Edmunds EV Range Test is the most accurate independent range test to date” and highlight the article with CT falls short in range test. How do they miss the Tesla EPA range for the truck they are testing is only 318 miles? Clearly these guys...

    Cybertruck OWNERS List & Stats [Add Yours]! ✍🏻

    I think this just shows my assumptions are not correct. If you use 2280/83=23 CT/day since 12/1. Maybe production is that low on average. I think only Tesla knows. Again. as long as we get our CT sooner than later it doesn’t matter much.

    100+ Cybertrucks spotted at Giga Texas for first time ever! (2/21/24)

    If they painted them different colors, it would be easier to count them and see day to day changes!

    1000 Miles in the Midwest: Road Trip Data

    My M3 runs about 85 actual miles for every 100 battery miles. When I check your actual miles vs battery miles, you are in the low 60% range. I had heard Tesla used a different "factor" when calculating the EPA mileage, which would impact actual miles and battery miles. The M3 actual miles is...

    Great information about PowerShare installation companies, pricing & configurations

    If I can get the Powerwall to feed off my solar without new microinverters, I want to get a Powerwall with the 3V gateway. We lose power too often just for maintenance and then SCE says we could be without power for days if there is a fire risk when the wind blows. I could be off the grid with...

    Great information about PowerShare installation companies, pricing & configurations

    I feel your pain and don't like it one bit, but I think it is called: "Bleeding Edge". Just keep smiling!

    Cybertruck OWNERS List & Stats [Add Yours]! ✍🏻

    The VINs and production numbers are not adding up. It seems like we should be reporting much higher VINs after 83 days of production (assuming 12/1 start). VIN 1700 is about the highest I've seen here. I've assumed the first 400 VINs were pre-12/1 for testing. (1700-400)/83 days = 16 CT/day...
