    What Are You Hauling in your Cybertruck? 🦾 đź‘·‍♂️

    This 2025 fridge wouldn't fit in a dorm, I suspect. I found it for sale in a house I was helping to clear out, and bought it to take to a good friend who has been needing one.

    Teslaunch Door Sealing Kit Install Instructions, plus before and after decibel readings (you might be surprised...)

    Before I invest in any kit intended to reduce wind noise by filling/covering openings or discontinuities in the exterior body shell I’ll do a relatively fast and inexpensive test using thin adhesive tape to cover them all. I’ll use a sound meter to get sound level measurements before making...

    Vault Build Completed - Too Much?

    While I was looking at this post I thought about how the Cybertruck has drawn together such a widely diverse set of people into this forum. We as a group represent a wide slice through the population of those who are willing and able to own a Cybertruck, from people who use it on their...

    2025.8.6 Update downloading now

    I first noticed the rear lights flashing when I walk up to the truck weeks ago and my software version is still 2025.8.4. The flash is very brief. It doesn't bother me, it's like the truck recognizing my arrival...

    Bed Textile Mat for Cybertruck launches in Tesla Shop

    It looks like a bed mat you’d find in a Bentley, if Bentley built a pickup. Beautiful, but only until the first time it was used to haul something dirty/abrasive/greasy/heavy. I would use it like I use a nice suit or tux: to look sharp, not to do dirty work. I might own two mats, the one I...

    3 weeks into ownership - rust spots or gunk?

    Class action…. Here’s my action for RobWashington’s class. I push the “Ignore” button on their profile. Voila!

    Rust in the centers of all four wheels.

    You are correct, Ty! I only painted mine (just the part of the hub exposed by the wheel, with absolutely no prep work) because I hadn't put hubcaps or wheel covers on my truck yet and didn't like the way the rust looked. I already had the paint and it took about 15 seconds per wheel...

    Rust in the centers of all four wheels.

    No, other than a quick wipe with a damp paper towel to check for dirt. You can spray Rustoleum directly over light surface rust. But if that light rust bothers you, you can use this instead. The color doesn't match quite as well but it's supposed to chemically "transform" the rust. I...

    Interior B Pillar starting to peel

    If/when mine is starting to wear, I'll put a bit of gaff tape on that spot to keep it from getting more damage. I only see two engineering improvements for that wear point. 1. Change the material to one that that is tougher and more wear resistant. The downside of this one is that the...

    Rust in the centers of all four wheels.

    Here's the solution to our "1st World" problem OP. It's pretty easy to operate yourself, or, you can hire someone to point the business end at the issue and press the spray button. https://a.co/d/0ONj51A Here's the result.

    Cyberbeast drag races the quickest Tesla models available [Carwow]

    I know the tires are the reason the speed is limited by the software. The question I have is, if that limiter was turned off, how what would become the new limiting factor? You may be ultimately right; the tires may fail first (dramatically halting any further spread increases!), but perhaps...

    Cyberbeast drag races the quickest Tesla models available [Carwow]

    Has anyone calculated just how fast the CT could go if not speed limited? What is the limiting factor? Motor maximum RPM? Aero drag vs power? Aerodynamic instability?? Tires self-destructing???

    FSD 13.2.7 in the Cybertruck - There are still some annoying bugs

    I've definitely found dangerous mapping errors. One near my home involves left turn lanes at the intersection of a one-way access road for a tollway and a cross street, where the left turn lanes and signage was changed in the last couple of months. Google maps hasn't been updated to reflect...

    2024.45.32.15 (FSD v13.2.7) Update Installed

    I think you were addressing variation in users’ experiences and/or satisfaction. If so, there is a large variation in drivers themselves: their driving style, temperament, patience, aggression, and on and on. No self-driving system can drive just like most of us would, because we are too...

    2024.45.32.15 (FSD v13.2.7) Update Installed

    I took two FSD round trips in the DFW area today, one (45 miles) from the northern suburbs to Love Field on 32.10 and one (10 miles) on city streets to my daughter’s house on 32.15 that was just installed. Aside from a (cleaning, I assume) windshield wipe at the start of the second trip I saw...

    Tesla pushing Model X customers to Cybertruck?

    I "speculate" that someone who doesn't own a Tesla vehicle, but does own a significant investment in Tesla stock, is more likely to talk and speculate on Tesla's business strategy than a person (like me) who owns a Tesla vehicle, but no Tesla stock. From the American Heritage Dictionary...

    Tesla pushing Model X customers to Cybertruck?

    I'm not a professional news writer, obviously, but as I read the OP, as was impressed by how clearly and concisely it was written. Clear is good; clear and concise is a challenge. As Pascal said, loosely translated from French, "I have made this letter longer than usual because I have not...

    Light Harmonics upgraded speakers (Subwoofer/Woofer/Midrange/Tweeter) for Cybertruck

    I’m a musician. I’ve played in loud live Rock, R&B and Pop bands for over 50 years. I want my music to sound like it sounds live on-stage, or like it does played back in a pro recording studio. I’m completely satisfied with the carefully engineered sound system in my truck and won’t be...
