  1. Cybertruck engineer: things we learned with Cybertruck in Baja and will bring via OTA

    Surprised no one mentioned the super cool cyber seats they were using with the harnesses. I wonder if they're just one offs for baja or upgraded seats for a future model. 🤔
  2. Tri-Motor Powertrain Issue?

    I think more people are opting for the AWD because of the price. The only real difference is the 0-60. Which is about 1.2 seconds ...is that worth 20k more? For me no because my MYP is about the same and that's already very quick. With the locking diffs you don't really need two motors on the...
  3. Cybertruck "should have" and "nice to have" lists

    Can Tesla get its cars to hold 250kw while charging longer than 2 mins.... Taper after 10 mins would be amazing!
  4. New Cybertruck crash test clip posted by Tesla (@Cybertruck) -- 12/12/23

    Gross weight accounts for vehicle plus passengers and cargo, so not an apple to apples comparison. We should look at a comparison of the Lightning vs CT instead.
  5. Munro: Tesla Cybertruck Technical Specs DEEP DIVE with 5 Tesla Executives

    Yeah I agree...I'm sure Sandy has a lot of experience but at the end of the day these engineers are way out of his league as it relates to how and why they do things. At the end of the day he tears down cars to try to understand the why certain things are done. From all the tear down most legacy...
  6. Munro: Tesla Cybertruck Technical Specs DEEP DIVE with 5 Tesla Executives

    I wonder if they played with the idea when Elon said they will have a quad motor. Basically would the dual rear motor could also bolt to the front motor mounts giving a quad motor setup. If I was Elon I would have 1 custom Cybertruck with a quad motor setup because I can lol 😎
  7. Munro: Tesla Cybertruck Technical Specs DEEP DIVE with 5 Tesla Executives

    This is a great video for those of you who were wondering why the truck is so expensive. Lots of custom parts inorder for them to make the best truck possible. Also tells me that Elon being the sales person he is, definitely under priced the truck in 2019 to create buzz. If you can afford the...
  8. Sandy Munro Cybertruck Engineering Analysis (Video)

    A dumbed down version is imagining each door, window, light, power seat switch is assigned a IP address. Instead of having a control module for each one of these systems, you can have one big control module sending a signal through one wire loom to each specific IP to control these functions...
  9. Cheaper future version?

    From past models I know they will bake at least 30% gross profit margin into the truck at the beginning. Once they start pumping them out faster than demand, they will slowly start pulling back on profit margin to drive demand. I dont think a reduction will happen until 2025. They could just...
  10. Franz takes delivery of Cybertruck VIN #002 🙌

    Pretty sure they don't deliver them in an exact order.
  11. Why two motor types in CyberBeast?

    This is pretty much the best answer.. the engineer I spoke with said that to get the best efficiency having induction in the rear was the best scenario with also being cheaper to manufacturer. I wonder if the semi will eventually do this vs having the clutch system they currently have. On the...
  12. Convince me to get the Cyberbeast...

    Keep in mind based on the given specs on the website.. beast is 2.6 0-60 with rollout subtracted…so it prob more like 3 seconds 0-60. dual is prob a real 4.1 0-60 …is 20k worth 1 second 0-60…which tbh you would never do launches to 60 because it’s just no where to do it unless a on ramp to...
  13. Frunk Power and Roof Power controls spotted in app!

    For connections that are not exposed to the elements…nothing beats a screw down for simplicity and is universal.
  14. OFFICIAL 2024 Cybertruck Pricing, Specs, Mileage/Range, Dimensions, Weight, Info

    it’s obvious you both are missing the point of the pricing increase. Inflation is just one broader factor. Here are some other factors that play a bigger role to pricing: - Elon priced the truck too low to begin with - Cost to manufacture the truck increased ie. * new custom tools to bend...
  15. Solar cover?

    I think people have choices and there are plenty of options out there for everyone’s particular use case. People are only really concerned about the price. I don’t think there is a perfect vehicle/truck no matter what. You can’t make everyone happy…I thought I wanted 500 miles back in 2019…but...
  16. Elon Musk and Sandy Munro talk Cybertruck.. Again

    Seems as though he think they will plan to sell less than 40k units in 2024. If they sell about 90k model s/x a year. An amount that won’t move the needle much is prob half of s/x production I’m thinking as they ramp. when I spoke with the Tesla engineer I guess he said the pack for single...
  17. Frunk Power and Roof Power controls spotted in app!

    I would hope the connection in the frunk is a screw type connection for accessories for winch/lights/outlets
  18. Solar cover?

    I believe b4 EV was mainstream like the current model y. In 2019 the only knock against an ev was total range. So for Elon to say we can have an ev with 500 miles of range in the hottest automotive market was a great ploy. It worked obviously, but as the data came through from the almost 2...
  19. Snow packed headlights - Jason Cammisa

    Although they are thin and led, they still generate heat and will melt most ice that accumulates...if it's snowing that hard you shouldn't be driving faster than 40 mph anyways. They did mention having the brightest drl too.
  20. Cyberbeast vs Cybertruck AWD Comparison

    Curious it also says the pack is 150kw..so does that mean they said 123kw of usable? Maybe possible for a software unlock to allow for more range in AWD and Trim motor trim...around 50-65 additional miles is possible if 150kw is true.
