    Suicide charging port a massive problem?

    That is what I was thinking. Keep a roll of Gorilla Tape or similar onboard, and slap on a piece or 2 before offroading. It is only a matter of peeling it off before recharging, and putting on a new piece only if more offroading will follow. Wet surfaces? I will also keep a roll of those...

    Solving the Big Truck, Small Garage Problem

    Most walls, including in garages, consists of drywall over 2x4's 16" on-center. Unless you beef up the wall, any wall climber will become a wall crusher.

    Solving the Big Truck, Small Garage Problem

    Or replace the garage door with a garage door-size version of this: A literal drive thru box window! :D

    First song / music you'll blast after delivery on day 1 of Cybertruck ownership?

    The first song I'll play will probably be the Double Dare theme song. What I play might depend on the weather or the time of year. Hot, sunny, windows down? Anything by the band Bride! Stryper is also a contender. During the Christmas season? Select tracks from A Christmas Album by Amy Grant (my...

    The Laughable & Ugly Wiper

    That will require some seriously strong magnets. When dealing with average everyday raindrops, I do not see any issues. Snow could cause problems, especially when starting up with a blanket of snow and ice in the morning. There is also the risk of theft. Magnets strong enough to overcome all...

    Reuters: Tesla delays production of Cybertruck to early 2023

    Read the title and started thinking, if this all happened a dozen years ago, many folks by now will probably be asking "Will the CT's computer come preloaded with Duke Nukem Forever?". because it sure seems like it. I agree with Dusty and his optimism.

    Cyber Truck vs. Sasquatch

    Probably by using the same superpower that warns him not to appear before anyone equipped with anything better than a potatocam.

    CT's computer and cosmic rays?

    I've watched this video yesterday: And today, I was wondering, has any car's computer had a hiccup due to cosmic rays? Any reports of Tesla's cars getting bit-flipped? Would the CT's SS exterior make it any less likely? Seems not much, given that some rays already pass through the atmosphere...

    All wheel steering - how does it work?

    This video explains it well: Edit: Turns out Crissa beat me by 15 minutes. I had to watch the video first, to make sure it actually applies to the topic at hand.

    Can Tesla cars be charged at a non-Tesla charger?

    Exactly what it says on the tin. I tried finding the answer with a search engine, but all I found was stuff about charging non-Tesla cars at Tesla Superchargers. If this has already been answered, please post the URL to that thread, or merge this one.

    Cybertruck is a ROBOT

    Despite that being a seemingly common movie trope, that is a complete disqualification when testing biometric security systems. "Will not work with severed thumbs", or anything like it, will have to be a selling point, just to discourage crooks who might think of it.

    Will RWS be standard or optional?

    It is possible. It would include a truckload of complexity, both in hardware and in software. The main source of the complexity will be that each wheel will have to turn to a different angle, so that all the wheels will trace out concentric circles. If an autobody expert and a computer nerd put...

    My CT would have....

    The more I think about it, the more I am having my doubts. You are probably right, anionic1. Something I have noticed in the pictures, and no one else seemed to have mentioned, are what appears to be tie-down points in the side walls, near the corners. With those, there is little need for T-slots.

    My CT would have....

    I understand there is little evidence of T-slots. Hence, my hypothesis. I do not see forklifts being a problem. Every CT owner will just have to tell any forklift operators to watch what they are doing. The door to the underbed compartment would be a greater concern. I would never think the bed...

    My CT would have....

    T-slots are probably one of those things that is not on the prototype, but will be included standard in production. The ends of the slots will probably have ramps to facilitate removal of debris. Like in the sketch below: This would also help with the insertion of fasteners.

    Tesla shows angular glass patent

    Or just cook 'em extra crispy. Then will just bounce off without having any chance of making the windshield look like my splavatar (splat avatar).

    Petrol-based Cybertruck.v. Soy-based please

    Someone needs to add something rodent-repelling to the insulation ingredients. Bitrex comes to mind, don't know if that would work.
