And even more startling: The line level audio signals are being sent to the speakers via the "CAN Buss", along with all the other digital signals! This means that each speaker will have its own amp. I hope there's no latency issues between speakers.
You are correct; it wouldn't make a difference for audiobooks, podcasts, and YT videos. In fact, for those a subwoofer wouldn't even be needed. But for music, that's where it can be a big difference. It just seemed odd for such a high quality vehicle to have ported subs.
With all due respect, I've been involved in audio for over 50 years, I've built both ported and sealed subwoofers, I know their sound characteristics; I don't have to reserve judgement until I hear them. I will modify the enclosures (seal the port), change out the speakers for ones meant to go...
They look like ported subwoofers. Very disappointing. A high quality sound system would have sealed subwoofers. They make it easier to hear the subtle differences between those super low notes, whereas a ported subwoofer is very boomy... the kind of vehicle you can hear/feel a half mile away. If...
After all this attention and scrutiny, I still don't know if the window between the cab and bed opens to let HVAC air through. And no one yet has tried to see if a magnet sticks to the CT's steel (some stainless steels are magnetic and some are not).
There are actually lots of wireless "backup" cameras for those towing an RV. If it's a very long RV, the camera will come with a "repeater" module that's mounted in the front of the RV, and it help send along the signal to the monitor that sits on the dash. Not sure what signal protocol it uses...
Rod, when not towing, the CT's rear-facing camera video would be seen on the rear view "mirror". But when towing a trailer, the image from the truck's rear-facing camera would be onscured by the trailer. So with a Tesla wireless "backup" camera placed on the rear of the trailer, the CT could...
I was talking about adding a Tesla camera behind the trailer so the Cybertruck can sense it and route its video output to the rear view "mirror" instead of the usual video output from the CT's rear camera. This would help the driver of the CT to see what's behind the trailer.
Since you can't see out of the rear window with the Tonneau cover closed, it makes sense to have a rear-view screen instead of a rear-view mirror. And then when towing, Tesla can offer a Cybertruck accessory: a wireless camera that gets placed on the rear of whatever you're towing, and when the...
All production Teslas have some kind of badging on the rear of the vehicle; either the Tesla "T" logo, or, as with the new Model 3, "T E S L A" spelled out. All CTs I've seen to date have had nothing on the rear. Do you think they will have something when they go into production? Personally, I'd...
I wonder if the CT will have some sort of Backup Trailer Assist feature like the gasoline Ford F-150. It could be a "summon" type feature that lets you get out and drive the CT in reverse when towing a trailer that you want to back in to a driveway or camping site, and it's done with the Tesla...
Nope, not a joke. There are millions of people in the U.S. who know nothing about Tesla. I want as many people as possible going to the Tesla website to see all the vehicles they have for sale. And having the website's URL on the back of the CT will get some people going there. And some of them...
True, but this helps with demand. Consider all the millions of people in the U.S. who know nothing of Tesla. Then they see a Cybertruck! And they see "TESLA.COM"' on the back. Some will likely go there to see stuff about the CT, and will see all the other vehicles Tesla makes, and this can help...
Yeh, and I'm surprised as to why. I want to help accelerate the transition to sustainable transportation, and turning more people in the direction of Tesla should help with that. And putting their website in plain site on the back of the CT helps accomplish this. But there are evidently some...
I've looked at the pre-order Agreement when I placed my pre-order, and nowhere does it state anything about a timeline for completing the order once contacted. My question is: When Tesla is ready to fill my CT order, do I have a specific amount of time to do so before I lose my place in line, or...
