Ajax definitely looks like a finger-eater. In an emergency situation I don't also want to be digging for a glove, so I'm either going to pass on it or say "life over limb" and take a chance that you'd be my ER doc to stitch up my digits post-escape. LOL.
I'm intrigued by the BRB, too.
Looks cool and the demo video suggests it can break the glass, but then what? The video cut (no pun intended) from the glass breakage to the seat belt cutting . . . completely skipping the glass cutting that seems necessary to get from break to escape. Am I missing something?
AWD is undoubtedly great and has all the amazing engineering that we have in our Beasts. However, if you've got a need for speed (specifically acceleration) and don't mind the extra spend, it's 100% worth it. I sometimes still get tunnel vision and mild nausea on some full charge accelerations...
Moved from '17 Raptor (loved the look, hated the drive) to '21 TRX (loved everything except single digit mpg) to Cyberbeast, and each change was a material upgrade, including in terms of speed, quality and joy to drive.
I still miss the throaty roar of my TRX, but don't miss ducking...
The videos appended to the tool's webpage are for other tools, but I found a demo here: .
Looks quite capable, with a heavy emphasis on laminated glass rescues.
Thanks for the share.
They're sold out too, so I've signed up for notification from them as well.
Not doubting your conclusion, but what is your certainty based upon? I have no basis to assess, so asking for educational purposes. It certainly looks wicked enough to do the trick.
Looks like they're sold out, but Jay (seems like owner based on my conversation with him) said they're expecting a restock in the next week or two. Very nice, helpful guy. Sounds like he's spoken to a few CT owners already . . . likely based on this post.
If you're able to get him access to...
They tend to be responsive via the message function in Tesla app.
I had another pair sheered off last month. Sh#t design proven up once again. Waiting for next recall or other appointment to address. Approximately $60 parts and labor for each pair I’ve had to replace.
In my case it's more of a "sometimes" than a "usually," but otherwise I agree. I already feel like I'm going too slow at 85, so an unjustified further dilution just makes it more enjoyable to take over and "jet" myself where I'm going.
I have the same experience and frustration with FSD seemingly unjustifiably ignoring my speed wishes, unfortunately capped at 85 mph. I'm always in "Hurry" mode (until it resets itself from time to time) and there are no weather, road, traffic or visibility-related reasons that it shouldn't...
I had all windows, including the roof and front, tinted and while it's definitely still warm when we get in after being parked in full TX sun, it's nowhere close to what it would be absent the tinting. Front tint took awhile to get used to since it creates a bit of a star effect and some tail...
I always discuss desired purchases involving 4 zeroes or more, so this $120K purchase was no different. Although not value-added in your scenario, her response when my # was called early last year was “you work hard for your money and deserve it, so go for it.” Same response for Raptor and TRX...
That's not what Tesla says, what most owners' experience shows, or what ChatGPT reports (see below, FYI only), but I'm happy for you! (y)
Mine is relatively quiet, but, as noted in my OP, gets louder with speed and, more impactfully, under certain wind conditions.

I've already been through the cant rail replacement/re-wrapping exercise once because my driver's side rail was bent just enough that the driver's side front window wasn't sealing fully and was causing excess freeway-speed wind noise. Tesla replace and was going to rewrap it for free, but my...
Did you guys accidentally choose UK instead of the US in the self-driving mode selection window? ;)
Kidding aside, glad everyone was paying attention and self-corrected safely.
I think the oft reflexive, blanket demonization of journalists and journalism is no less devoid of critical thinking than some people's reflexive demonization of all things Tesla and, specifically, Cybertruck.
Focused, fact-based skepticism and/or criticism, however, is, in my view, justified...
