    Things That Make You Say Hmm

    Copy Cat... Oh, Ram, late to the party, I see. Or is this not real?

    What is this part?

    So there I was, looking for something I dropped when right beneath the front of the drivers seat, I found the pictured little beauty. I couldn't figure out where it came from... Confounding. I'm also about to replace an aero thing (in front of the right rear tire). I'm sure I can find a post...

    FSD 14 Poll and reports... eventually

    Thought I'd start a poll... more of a guessing game... When will the first member here get FSD v14? Should be about 6 weeks from the announcement on August 10th. Just thought this could be a little fun. So, keep it light... keep it fun... Can't wait to see the new version! I'm hoping for...

    Why, oh why didn't Tesla fix this industry problem?

    I'd like to implore Tesla to fix this industry oversight! Why they didn't fix it already, I don't know. There I was getting ready to leave for work when I got it. The dreaded "something's wrong" notification. It's the washer fluid. It's low. Whew. Nothing bad. When I get home, I grab one...

    Quick Storm. "Lost" Power. Cybertruck to the rescue!

    Quick storm rolled through on Friday. Our grid power went out but Fluffy took over within a second or two. The outage lasted for almost 5 hours for us. Some people in our area lost power for almost 2 days. Anyway, I'm thankful that the weather was nice because Fluffy doesn't run the HVAC at...

    Changes to Cybertruck on Tesla Site: High strength, Class IV steel tow bar ?

    I just noticed that Tesla now shows the Cybertruck as having a High strength, Class IV steel tow bar. Has that always been the case?

    They see me turning...

    Hey, everybody. I have a question to which I've been unable to find a reliable answer. How much do the rear tires turn and is that going to be increased (again?)? If I recall correctly, the first ones didn't have rear steer. Then, Tesla made some with like a 3.5 degree turn. Finally, Tesla...

    Is this camera night view normal?

    Night view of my rear camera feed. The Twist: The roads are dry, it was not raining, and there was no fog.

    I learned that there are two lumbar supports in the driver's seat. I didn't realize the switch was a four way switch...

    The Most Amazing Story of the Year involving Tesla

    I'm going to propose that this is the most amazing story of the year. I'll post 2 pictures. See if you can figure out WHY this is the most amazing story of the year. Did you see it? I may have found the first ever article involving a Tesla where they never say "Tesla"!

    Getting the Tasks done when ordering

    Ordered my Beast on 29 May. Grey Decor and AT tires. But, that doesn't matter. Doing the finance task, my plan is to trade in my Maverick, pay a big chunk, and maybe get a loan for the last bit. I went in and selected $60,000 down payment. Fine. Then, I selected trade-in. $28,000 for my...

    Background worthy pictures!

    This could be a fun way to pass the time, my fellow line sitters, fans, configurers, VIN waiters, delivery day waiters, and lucky son of a bitches with your Cybertrucks already! Let's see those great photos that someone could use for a computer or phone background. Preference in this order: 1...

    Unorthodox thinking

    BLUF (that's Bottom Line Up Front): Just read it. I mean, it should only take about 2 minutes to read. You'll doom scroll longer than that anyway. Besides, I'm entertaining. My wife says so. Sometimes she's so entertained, her eyes roll back. Plus, I typed this post slow because I know...

    Website Changes?

    Okay, from this page, I click on "Manage" over there under my Cybertruck and get this: The last time I got this error, they changed the page to read something like "You'll be able to configure your Cybertruck when the time comes" or some such thing. Do any of you also get the 403 Error...

    Mirror, Mirrors, on Cybertruck

    Reposted this to a new Thread because I buried it in another thread where it didn't really fit. TLDR: Mirror rotates so a mirror that faces upward normally becomes a small "legal" mirror and the whole assembly has a wing-like cross-section and much less drag. Regarding Mirrors: Elon doesn't...

    Things they don't tell you about owning an EV.

    Repository for advice, tips, jokes, etc. Gassing up my truck, I always spray some gas on my hands as a good sanitization practice. Burns the eyes a little but, you can't be too safe. My wife can't do this with her Tesla. I'm dreading charging my cybertruck because I'll have to carry cans...

    With Overseas reservations being refunded, how will that affect your place in line?

    ***** Apparently, this is not the case. It appears that while orders have been stopped, Tesla has not cancelled any and probably won't. Sorry for passing on bad info. ***** II haven't verified it yet, but it looks like Tesla is cancelling and refunding overseas reservations. That should move...
