  1. Cybertruck + Film Crane Truck / Crew in Iceland! 🎬

    Appears the CT attracted an UAP in the last few frames...
  2. Cybertruck wrapped like an ICE F-150 🧐 Frunk Open Look (No Tub Installed)

    It appears that Tesla is advertising that a wrapped CT can be anything the customer wants, just provide a .jpg. Will this be a Tesla option or will any shop be able to print/cut the sections of PPF as shown? A business would prefer a custom wrap with their logo/info.
  3. Cybertruck BIW body-in-white frames with front/rear castings 🤩 [7/11/23]

    The path of forces starts where the tires contact the ground and up into the wheel castings where the suspension mounts. Loads into the bed rest directly on the castings. From the side the frame looks like a simple truss. The SS skin (panels) on the sails appears to attach to bosses that have...
  4. Motortrend Piece on CT issues

    What is the speed of mechanical steering? At some latency a driver will perceive a loss of steering. Much like the servo needs of Optimus precision requires fast encoders and a dedicated control loop so human input, much slower, would not notice a lag.
  5. Leaked interior Cybertruck photo!

    It would be a great feature for families and us grandfolks to have a Tesla child car seat that could snap into the back half of the center console.
  6. Leaked interior Cybertruck photo!

    I need a camera like that to make my body slimmer!
  7. More Cybertruck Castings Pile Up at GFTX!? (06.02.23)

    The rear castings are multi piece. Folks, welcome to the same casting used in the cyber van. The attached castings would be different.
  8. Poll: How often do you use your frunk? (Or see yourself using it)

    SwampNut lives in the hot part of AZ (like me). Even in the shade, which is rare in the desert, the interior spaces get brutally hot.
  9. Poll: How often do you use your frunk? (Or see yourself using it)

    ditto... also a tire repair kit because there isn't a spare. Here in AZ I carry extra bottled water but the lifting pucks emit a nasty rubber smell that seemed to permeate the water so the frunk water is not suitable for the dogs or my wife...just me.
  10. Poll: How often do you use your frunk? (Or see yourself using it)

    Ah, one of my childhood tasks! Dad would give the cabin cruiser enough speed and I would pull the drain plug. Bilge water and fumes, great memories on the great south bay. At least I got to pilot the boat for a few minutes.
  11. .

    when teaching my kids and a few other people to drive I always mentioned that the challenge to driving isn't mastery of the machine but understanding the minds (or mindlessness) of diverse drivers. It will just be a matter of weeks after level 5 deployment until there are tiktoks showing jerks...
  12. How long will you wait for your Cybertruck?

    True, My purchase of a CT was always dependent on TSLA success. I still have a few years until Tesla contacts me.
  13. Tesla Q1 2023 Earnings Report; Cybertruck Status Maintains "Tooling" Status, Pilot Production Line Photos Shown! 📸

    "because the 3mm thick flat stainless panels are designed specifically to carry a significant portion of the load by making the unibody more rigid, as evidenced by the number and thickness of the attachment points" That is the point I am making. The attachments points are few. For the trim...
  14. Tesla Q1 2023 Earnings Report; Cybertruck Status Maintains "Tooling" Status, Pilot Production Line Photos Shown! 📸

    The photo labeled "G I G A F A C T O R Y T E X A S — T O O L I N G F O R C Y B E R T R U C K P R O D U C T I O N L I N E" is not the production line for cybertruck. It is a gigapress (9k ton?). The other photos are a pilot line in CA.
  15. Tesla Q1 2023 Earnings Report; Cybertruck Status Maintains "Tooling" Status, Pilot Production Line Photos Shown! 📸

    It appears to be a welded aluminum tank with a valve manifold and perhaps two push to connect fittings. No, unless they fill it with 70 MPa (10 kpsi) H2 like a fools cell.
  16. Tesla Q1 2023 Earnings Report; Cybertruck Status Maintains "Tooling" Status, Pilot Production Line Photos Shown! 📸

    The sub frame (cab) appears to be painted and likely high strength steel. This would explain the need for hiring a BIW (body in white) engineer. The doors and windows attach to this subframe as well as the front and rear castings. However, there is no significant SS panels attached to the...
  17. Tesla Q1 2023 Earnings Report; Cybertruck Status Maintains "Tooling" Status, Pilot Production Line Photos Shown! 📸

    I Think 3mm (11ga) panels will be used. The SS on the A pillars look as if they will snap onto the subframe. The fender and bed/sail panels will be bolted on to the castings. The SS panels would need welded PEM studs or nuts to attach to the mounting bosses on the castings. There was...
