Those Midwest winter frozen bugs simply do not leave a smear.

A stainless exterior is not "improved" by miracle claims of various "coatings." It is not "better" to clad it, although it may look better. The stainless steel is quite happy meeting the weather and the conditions of the world. For polishing and removing scratches, the first rule is materials...

After the Great Texas IceApocalypse, I installed a 22 kw Generac natural gas powered backup. Been very happy with it. There is about a 10 second power drop before the backup generator kicks in. If the option had existed to power the home with the PowerShare and the CT, that would have been my...

I'm half joking here, but to have a 6th seat, that screen would need to get itself out of the way in the couple milliseconds an airbag deployed. Not impossible but not trivial either.

That's not the preferred way, in an emergency, to get out of a seatbelt.

There can be no seat that faces The Big Tesla Screen.

You know you want it. You know you need it. The house should be guarded by a Cyberbeast at night.

After much thought I have came up with a clear, rationale group of reasons why I should go ahead and order sight unseen without a test drive whichever Cybertruck they are making right now. A LOT of deliberation went into this and I appreciate all the comments in this forum on all sides of the...

Wait ... She's out on the dance floor, gyrating, and looking my way, smiling eagerly....I should wait years something better might come along? How to say "No way!" in twelve languages? ChatGPT Certainly! Here's how to say "No way!" in twelve different languages: Spanish: ¡De ninguna manera...

Seeing something like this on the road You Know For A Fact that aliens have landed and the world will never be the same.

Don't worry. You'd pass right past it and not see it.

Same boat here, except expecting my The Email any day. I bought a Model 3 a year ago so as to become educatified about the Tesla stuff, before making the big jump into Cybertruckery. But now I really like the Model 3! What to do, what to do...

That is incredible. By comparison mine will be wrapped, without any cost, totally free - with Texas mud.

No, they do not. Better to follow the Occam's razor auxiliary principle: "Simplify the problem, but only to the extent required to accurately represent it." For example, let's consider "mission profile," typical use case. Let's ignore "things will be way better in the future." A guy has a...

Okay but look, we can't be discussing patently ridiculous things. I believe discussing towing with 78 miles of towing range is in that category. Just conclude "this is a truck we don't tow with" and move on. As more data is gathered this will happen regardless. Maybe the evidence will come out...

Okay. Sorry, I didn't get that from your narrative. Comment. My gas powered 8.1 liter 2003 3/4 ton Avalanche goes from 11mpg down to 6mpg pulling a trailer with a full size car, and that is truly awful, say compared to a diesel truck. But that 6mpg is STILL 6x32 = 192 miles on the road.

I wouldn't agree with what you call "background principle" one bit, and then can't agree with conclusions based on it. Like I said, it's largely the eddies and swirls that creates drag. Maybe this is not intuitive. Think of a hand placed out in the wind at 60 mph. if there was zero turbulence...

I have knowledge of aerodynamics and over 3000 hours as a pilot. I would caution attempting to apply aero arguments to cars and trucks. First of all all modern vehicles are extensively tested both in wind tunnel and CFD simulations. And the results are not intuitive. It's largely the swirls...

Want to take a guess and the dings and dents in my Raptor 2020 ALUMINUM truck bed if you tried that?

I admit to being concerned about there being a crowd of gawkers every time I stop the Cybertruck. This is a function of being the first to get one. Yes it is problematic. But what of the opposite end of the spectrum? You wait a couple years and get your beloved CT. After driving off from the...
