Thank you very much for the response. It was very helpful.

What I am wondering about the Urander unit. Would it have been possible to have the roof panels on the topside of the crossbars and would that not be better for aerodynamics? Those crossbars as they are now, do they not make for turbulence? I am considering a purchase of this cap but the...

I’ve only driven Tesla’s since 2012. My Model S typically got 20k on a set. My Model 3 about 30k. Amazingly, I just replaced the original Michelins on my Model Y Performance at 56k, there was still decent tread for maybe 5k more!! I’m a somewhat aggressive driver as well. Go figure!

Actually the Model S guy was earlier as the road only went as far as Tuk at that time. The only way then to drive to Inuvik was on the Ice road.

I’ve done that trip easily a dozen times from so cal. Back before Cybertrucks. Usually in whatever pickup I had, once in. Chevy Monte Carlo that I was driving from LA to Anchorage for a fellow. I’ve had only one flat that required a spare. The kinds of flats you get on a road like these can’t...

Maybe the difference was a child was badly hurt and the other vehicle owners were suing him. I’d rather not take the chance myself.

Your biggest problem isn’t the police. An illegal tint will cancel your insurance if you are in an accident. I have a friend who was in an accident that wasn’t even his fault. People were hurt, his insurance did not pay on the grounds that they contracted in faith that the vehicle was legal with...

I have done the White Rim Trail twice. One time clockwise and the other counterclockwise. It’s absolutely gorgeous! Technically, it’s very easy to do. Both times I used 4wd only at one point short point. I had my Dodge 2500. There’s zero reason that a Cybertruck won’t be able to do it other...

On the vehicle’s screen, go to “locks” on the setting screen, switch off “close windows on lock”. Alternatively, you can open the windows how you want them, open drivers door, tap the “lock” icon on top of screen menu, get out and walk away. Vehicle will lock but windows remain how you left...

My favorite areas on these trips has been northern BC, Yukon (especially Dawson City) and NWT (especially the Dempster). Alaska can seem over crowded after the Yukon and NWT. Good things that Alaska has going for it is Eagle which is where I was married on the banks of the Yukon River, and...

It’ll be a great trip. I’ve done the same many times over the last 30 years. Sadly in gas trucks or sedans. I suggest you try and squeeze in the side trip over to Stewart/Hyder, it’s gorgeous and worth the hour or two. Also, my highlight has always been from Dawson City up to Inuvik. This is...

I agree with you, as a retired professional auto mechanic those two bolts scare the crap out of me. Thankfully there are dowels to help mate the pieces but some high grade nuts at the back end of the bolts rather than just threaded billet scares the crap out of me. Those bolts backing out at...

I have had my Cybertruck since January 2024. I think it's a great truck especially on the dirt roads that I travel often. Sadly though, with Elon's antics, I am afraid nobody will buy these at any discount price. I drove by the Upland Tesla store, they must have had 50 sitting there. Even my...

I’m at 359 after 11 months and 9,000 miles.

Turn off the "Immersive Sound". The effect immersive sound makes is that you feel you are in a larger space, but the timing of the music becomes confused. What makes music, music, is timing. Your brain will work hard to make sense of the music when immersive sound is turned on, this makes for...

My Cybertruck was #800, I received it way back in January 2024. There were zero defects. I have been driving only Teslas since 2012. My Cybertruck was the most flawless build of all.

Both VW and Rivian are in financial near doom. I have no idea where VW will find $5 billion. They are already $200 billion in debt and have publicly stated “the house is on fire”.

I had Geico. Switched over all my cars, which are all Teslas, to Tesla insurance and saved a bunch of money.

The backstory is no secret. Sam explains it regularly amongst his videos, so I’m sure Sam is fine if I explain it to you. Basically Shanna, who in her late 30’s , came down with colon cancer. They have been getting her treated in Australia and Thailand. Sam has been stellar at keeping the...

Yes, they have been through a lot. The reason they came is Sam really wants to go to San Francisco and see a 49ers game plus especially for Shanna, two things on her bucket list are Disneyland and Universal Studios. My heart goes out to this brave family. I went through the same 10 years ago...
