I leave my Model Y at the airport all the time. No sentry. Hardly loses anything. I wonder how long it could sit until the battery was 0? The longest I left was maybe 2.5 weeks and it had tons left. Seems like it would last at least a few months maybe?

As far as leaving the Cybertruck, I personally wouldn't do it. Not until they become common. Too much interest still and also haters.
Good point about the haters. Hadn’t thought about that.

The Cybertruck is my only vehicle. The nearest Major Airport is 150 miles (240 kilometers) away, and I don't have any friends....

I will need to leave my Cybertruck at the Airport for a month at a time!
I know to turn Sentry Mode and Cabin Overheat Protection OFF.
But I wonder how much Phantom Drain she'll suffer?

We're your friends! But we're not taking you to the airport lol

If the truck goes to sleep, drain should be minimal (like 1% per day or less). Open your Tesla app, it should show "Asleep for X hours", which is a good indicator. Early firmware would not sleep, and it will wake up if you interact with it from the app.

Find a location where you can plug it into 120V 15A. There are probably a LOT more EV friendly parking areas that you think.

I have to leave my Cybertruck in Pittsburgh for a month while I travel.
Normally this is not an issue as the truck sleeps with Cabin Overheat and Sentry Mode off.
But now with all these idiots thinking they’ll “get Elon” by vandalizing Teslas.
Should I be worried?
