Chevy Rivian

WeChat is onto something. T-mobile == Tesla-mobile? T-phones? T-bird .v. Twitter, or T-chat. TX-mobile, phones, tweet and msg… BUT Apple and the ecosystem underneath iDevices remains not to mention apps/developers and the NeXT dilemma. NeXT proved technology platforms need only have two...

THINK Cybertruck == T-mobile antenna = VMN(VirtualMeshNetwork) the truck can TX at higher watt than a 1 watt cellphone. Tesla off takes % on Voice, Data and Msg then kicksback % to the Cybertruck ala VPP. Cybertruck owners solar charge for a week and make moula to pay it off. T-mobile plugs...

Thank @JBee for the heavy lift. Now can we imagine the possibilities beyond the SAT? SAT+cellphone == innovation opportunities. Beyond Dick Tracy watch messages to Mars that is…

Watch the Rivian again. Notice the weight rollup. As the weight comes on, tires dig deeper, rear end squats and the front wheels begin to lift. That’s the 4° angle matching the sled weight that they consider perfect. Watch the FORD pull. Notice the weight rollup. As the weight comes on, tires...

3.5L moved that sled bringing tension onto the hitch. That’s suspect – a tell. It doesn’t slow the truck neither as it rolls up. Just moving a sled from dead-stop is beyond the limits of a stock torque converter in an automatic transmission. I found out 600hp doesn’t help neither. Rivian...

Perfect pull angle on a tractor sled is 4°, which leaves the front wheels off the ground 4-8”.

This is legit amazeballs! I’ve drag raced. Won. Turned around and put that balanced and blueprinted race engine in a new Chev 4x4 hooked up to a tractor pull sled. Chev couldn’t compete with the pull Rivian just laid down.

that’s presumptuous. Cybertruck undercarriage, running gear and electronic brains have been gutted in favor of Quad. Quad motors independent torque vectoring, regen and braking on all four corners is a total re-gear. Contoller mapping four independent motors, regen and AI workload factors...

Buckle-in the ride for the next 18mos. is going to be like this…

R1T .v. F-150L is comparing a 15/16’s to fullsize truck. The smaller pickup has attracted a following. Thanks for posting the dims. Wondered just how small the Rivian was inside.

Not a Delorean… It could be a Tucker, L-29 Chord, Chrysler AirFlow, FORD Mustang, Corvette or just a 57’ Chev Hardtop. Take your pick. There’s a little bit of each in Cybertruck and a bunch more that it contributes to the pantheon of automotive history to join its ranks someday. Tucker...

That’s an olde used car idiom, used to help sales people over selling a dud to a perfectly unsuspecting public

That’s my bad writing. I hold EM’s pricing at reveal more important than anything FORD. Credibility is “goodwill”. I tried to honor the goodwill FORD built over four decades with its loyalty that is its insurmountable moat. Elon erodes Tesla credibility tweet at a time and snipes at measly $99...

Tesla lives and dies by cyber, despite name-plating, haven’t impressed with the cyber half yet. If cyber falls flat the Cybertruck will as well. By 2026, A.I. is the narrative and Tesla is literally on that bleeding edge with TeslaVISION and FSD. NHTSB nixes FSD Tesla have no cyber game.

tl;dr Cool Wednesday tidbit! An example how bright is the future of TeslaVISION and Full Self Driving, To wit: Raw Nerf Definitely, research optimization in computational photography that’s the stuff of geeks. Tesla could supercharge FSD training with Raw Nerf on DOJO in low light scenes...

tl;dr Both posts you made tell ”how” FORD has been the #1 pickup truck over decades - four in a row. F150L is an informed, innovative conservative plaid pants design that reflects its buyers needs and wants. That knowledge, experience and loyalty to the design is the FORD defensive moat. The...

I understood that the pricing offer was an inducement for my patience to wait years to take actual delivery of a Cybertruck. If it is not legal to be induced as a member in a class of reservations that number 1M+, then you have described a cartoon that Tesla performed “Live”. My bad.

Cybertruck will be the stiffest the competition will ever see. Tesla have its work cutout attenuating joust, jolt, vibration and shock transfer into the passenger compartment. Its one nuisance I’ve accepted as an early Cybertruck adopter. Gen2,3, etc…will get quieter, softer and exoskeleton just...
