    Car designer Frank Stephenson's view on the Cybertruck

    Who really cares all that much what such a functional and durable vehicles looks like? The CT isn't for everyone, only those that appreciate true engineering genius.

    Cybertruck after warranty

    I've managed to keep my Ford Ranger running for well over 200k, for the past 23 years, so I'm expecting my CT will be around for a long time after the warranty is up. I think we can also expect a big following, along with an extensive after-market presence to maintain and service the very hard...

    CT vulnerabilities to persistent climate extremes

    Hi Dave, That's an amazing amount of environmental damage considering the age, and only the last five years ungaraged. My 23 year old Ford has some cracks in the plastic control covers for the cruise control on the steering wheel, but that's all, and it's never been garaged. I'm thinking the...

    Cybertruck depreciation concern

    I think you can count of some of that sort of thing happening with the CT, but that is kind of expected with a first run vehicle. I'm sure better cheaper versions will arrive in the next couple of years...I'm thinking the original tri-motors will remain pretty awesome like the early model S.

    Can we expect the Cybertruck in 2021 -- What's your opinion?

    Realistically, I'd expect there to be a lot of time needed to ramp up such new and odd construction. Q-2 of 2022 would be my guess for actual consumer vehicles in any real numbers to be delivered.

    Let's be honest - who disliked and/or was repulsed by the Cybertruck when they first saw it?

    For about 30 seconds I was shocked, then saw why the thing is shaped like that, and I really don't give a crap about how a work vehicle looks. The C.T. will last, and have tremendous value.

    Velociraptor VS CyberTruck

    In the next five or six years the resale value of any ICE vehicle is going to PLUMMET. No FSD? Sorry, it will be like trying to sell an old style TV. Junkyards won't even want them in fifteen years.

    This may be Cybertruck's 2B stainless steel. Updated Scratch and Sniff* test.

    Maybe there will be finish operations, sort of like car washes, but using sandpaper to create or restore the finish you've selected.

    Driving the Cybertruck

    I adjust my driving to the situation. If there are vehicles behind me I use the regenerative braking more aggressively, and coast up to red lights and traffic if I'm on my own. In the past three years I've only used the service brakes on a few dozen occasions where hard braking was required...

    Conducting testing on 300 series stainless steel - temperature and bullet test

    I'd be surprised if anything like normal wear and tear, door dings, hail and such, would come close to denting 3mm stainless. Bet one of those Space X fabrication guys could give us some insight or hints about what it's like to work with, repairability wise.

    Tesla Analyst Estimates 'Staggering' 650K Cybertruck Preorders

    Totally agree, but you're still talking somewhere around 400,000 sales.

    Rear passthrough possible

    For sure. It would add a lot of weight to get that strength back from other areas of the vehicle.

    Tri motor Cybertruck better V2G *investment* value than dual?

    Mile of range per dollar is already better on the tri-motor, so the V2G potential is icing on the cake for me.

    Future parking lot dilemma. Which Cybertruck is mine?

    Mine will be the one with the broken glass decals on the driver side windows.
