    Lug Nut Caps

    The lug nut caps that fit other Teslas will fit Cybertruck because the lug nuts are exactly the same. And no, they do not have to fit tight. They slide on and off easily and suction holds them on. They won't fly off no matter how fast you go.

    Change angle of wheels individually through the ODB port?

    If you want to control each of the 4 wheels independently, you can't. The steering rack in the front and back keep the two wheels on each end at a fixed angle.

    Real story on corrosion?

    The rail dust is not "preventing" the CT surface from doing what it was designed for. It's just sitting on top of the surface. I get rail dust on my regular, painted car every year and have to detail it to get it off the clear coat every spring.

    Rust Spots/Corrosion is the Norm

    Exactly, this rust spot accumulation from debris in the environment happens to all cars, even ones with actual paint. That's why they make detailing products like Iron-X and Iron Out that you spray on your car, let it sit for a little, and it turns purple. Then you have to rinse it out. Can...

    CT stuck on snowy driveway

    "This causes lots of speed in some conditions, like driving in deep snow." Meant to say that the traction control causes a loss of speed when going through deep snow, and can work against you by losing momentum. "The other Teslas have a "Slip Start" mice that you have to turn on to allow a bit...

    CT stuck on snowy driveway

    Anything can get stuck no matter if all 4 of their tires can spin. Keep in mind that the locking differentials are not activated yet in the software. Also, for anybody that hasn't owned a Tesla, the traction control is good but can sometimes work against you. Traction control that Tesla uses...

    Daisy chain charging?

    I don't believe the Cybertruck currently supports Power Share while charging itself. It seems to use the same conversion hardware. Perhaps with a future update, but it would have to be at reduced input and output rates.

    Disapointed With 15mph Reverse Speed Limit

    The older Model S and X used mechanical oiling, but that is no longer the case. Starting with Model 3, Tesla started using an electronic oil pump and oil filter. Model Y and newer Model S/X have the same electronic oil pump. Cybertruck should have the same. Either the 15 MPH limit carried...

    NO TAX CREDIT! Tesla Cybertruck 2024

    Looks like that is due to the Foundation Series add-ons bringing the MSRP for dual motor AWD to over the $80,000 limit. Tesla's website shows that it will likely qualify sometime this year, likely when they start allowing base Cybertruck dual motor AWD to be configured.

    Torque wrench and socket specs for changing a tire/wheel on the Cybertruck?

    According to TSportline's video on the Cybertruck they are working on, and on which they tried out 3 different wheels on, the lug nuts are exactly the same as other Teslas and torque specs are the same.

    Cybertruck engineers bend upper control arm in testing

    No, the common problem with Model 3 front upper control arms was that the ball joint wasn't sealed well enough from water intrusion and eventually the grease inside would wash out and mix with water. That would cause creaking noises when going over bumps. Eventually Tesla sealed around the...

    Do you think Tesla should honor original reservation price?

    No, the unveil prices were not promised. That was what Tesla expected the prices to be when they started making and selling the Cybertruck. If you know anything about Tesla history with all of their vehicles, you know that they unveil them years before they actually make them and things change...

    WADE MODE will let Cybertruck drive through water by raising ride height and pressurizing battery 🤿 💦

    Battery packs are not completely sealed off. They have vent ports to relieve pressure from temperature fluctuations and in case of thermal runaway. The ports have valves that are supposed to close off there's any moisture, but they are not perfect. Think of this battery pressurization kind of...

    BEAST MODE Cybertruck gets 845HP !! + Front locking differential / diff!

    It will have a diff anywhere that there's a motor. You might mean that the dual motor has a locking diff on both front and back. That's true based on the comment by Drew Baglino The tri motor does not have nor need locking diffs in the rear because the two motors work independently through...

    Will Cybertruck be your first truck ever?

    The only truck I've owned was a 1994 Dodge Dakota Sport. It had a manual transmission and 4x4, with a single cab. I loved it because I like small pickups. My dad has had a few Ford Rangers and currently has a Chevy S10. I don't really like full-sized pickups because I don't need the giant...

    It’s truly incredible in person guys

    I can tell that the picture was taken at a lower angle, so not an accurate view of the Cybertruck height compared to the person. But I was just curious on his take of the Cybertruck height.

    Jay Leno Drives Tesla Semi!

    Yeah, this leads me to believe the Tesla Semi could be around 24k lbs. Enclosed cargo trailers usually weigh around 15k lbs. Don't know how much a flatbed trailer weighs, but if around the same then 24k + 24k + 15k = 63k lbs total. I believe usual diesel trucks weigh around 20k lbs.
