The less I drive, the more small battery doesn't bother my Range anxiety. But if I love my small battery EV, I want to drive it. Especially, for roadtrips, I don’t want to suck chargers out and back the whole distance. SO battery SWAP where you add battery or change a small for a large...

Collapsible trailers will return en vogue. France BESCO was a notable one that collapsed down flat. Great to store away and it carried 600#. Folding trailers carry more # but need more starage space. Adapt-X might be the win for Cybertruck and EM’s namesake. It certainly would tow folded in...

Never forget in EUR the Diesel pump handle has the GREEN boot - Gas is BLACK! You’re good to go!

“Thou dost throne too much” No body drops a $100 RN Cybertruck for any “other” BEV than a Tesla. Four reasons: BEV demand exceeds supply Tesla Charger Network exceeds all, better, more and faster Cybertruck is store of value Cybertrucks are medium of exchange Gas prices alone drive all...

Battery news reports battery makers see BEV mfgrs building different vehicles than LiON. Top of the list is RANGE – Consumer’s #1 purchase anxiety. Next LiON CHARGING time, availability and demand are critical already. Lastly, CHEMISTRY, raw ingredients, which LiON battery makers are currently...

Neither…first vehicle since the 52 1/2’ Corvette to have integrity of design and narrative. Corvette Russian design/Cybertruck South African. Americans can’t see the forest that is their mass consumerism.

Anti-mass transit historically skews toward the people who have no use for mass transit. The great divide came back to bite them in the election! Well played…

Tesla drive units == differential assembly to which electric motors attach OEM ICE vernacular drive unit = trans axel with transmission integral. Tesla eliminated transmission shifting altogether by retaining gear-driven that it can change power transfer.

Interesting that “drive unit” is unexplored, uncharacterized and yet Cybertruck’s fundamental power transfer mechanism nicely encapsulated in a “drive unit” pill ya’all supposed to swallow. We understand CT single, dual and tri-motor. Quad’s not revealed, shown or described in anyway as to...

Living on the beach, the biggest problem is that cars mildew and mold. Anti-microbial interior treatment, at car scale, is by far the greatest concern rather than rusting S.S. Tesla vegan materials may be immune to molds and mildew, but otherwise will require rotating ownership yearly on the...

I berthed and sailed boats on the GSL(8-9%NaCl) in Salt Lake City for years. None, read zero, S.S. corrosivity. Welds? Couple dodgy ones let-in and brittle broke. Aluminum rusts away. I know that much. seeing mast deterioration. So Tesla engineers will need to include in their margin of safety...

Slight caveat - two loadbars? They form a connection, a three point hitch. This is superior to the single ball pivot hitch with N degrees freedom. Dynamic adjustable suspension per Tesla‘s info is shock-driven variable valving dynamically weight sensitive so that Cybertruck never drags ass. In...

Tesla SEMI already plowed that field. Cybertruck is Tesla final answer for pickup. See that space between those two? That’s not daylight. Weathermen use the term when it looks like clear blue sky. They call it - sucker hole. That’s pretty apropos for wind resistance increased by velocity...

Only structure that takes into consideration Colorado River flood plane, affords operational advantages and maximizes the property. Hope you nailed it!

Aspirationally, EM moved the goalposts which grated against all the enthusiasm behind the OG Armageddon machine’s Nov2019 launch. CyberGucci with pretty 4 wheel Quad motors was a setback. It setback the simple, efficient electro-mechanical differential Cybertruck powertrain schema...

<quote>Acceleration 0-60 mph with 80k Ib == 20 sec </quote> Burning through tires there Bubb!

Stop holding your breath. At least, Q2 2023 and later… Elon switch’o<>change’o to Quad Cybertruck for SOP requires that variant be alpha/beta tested through NTSB, new Quad software integrations and pre-production verification and validation before developing final supply chain vendor contracts...

This pictures a 1 ton duelly. Tesla doesn’t make that variant. Hitching a Cybertruck to that trailer isn’t a test of the motors. Brakes are another story on an F-150 scale Cybertruck. Tesla would be foolish to build a 1 ton duelly. Its a gateway drug for beginners and Cheap Charlies’. The...

Cyberman, even tho a FORDman, I respect his estimate. Here’s why. Given not one but three GigaFurnaces burning $M USD, Cyberman scenario pisses off no one but “Frank“ in Accounting. And Elon’s thinks throwing Frank under the Cybertruck makes a point with WallSt. bean counters. Given 1M orders...

@Zabhawkin point wrt hauling ass(! @HaulingAss) with trailer loaded- out like a bat outta hell struck Bullseye. It was dead center on-target market segment for the wealth-y haulers with the cashflow to afford the lifestyle – striping off over the horizon Friday back in the saddle Monday. They...
