Confirmed Cybertruck specs: 5% smaller, 6x4 bed size, 5 seats, frunk, no pass through & more... (info from Tesla employee at Investor Day)

Tracks/Rails and pass-thru (gaps) are not inherently incompatible.

There are many bridges with pass-thru space between the bridge rails/sides and the ties/slats/planks. There are a lot of railroad bridges like this.

Just make sure to NOT occupy the passthru opening at same time the rail/track is also trying to occupy the same space.

Swinging and Swaying on the Hussaini Bridge ** Has more empty space than slats
The Hussaini Bridge in Pakistan's Gojal region is either a spectacular thrill, or a terrifying no-no. Unless you're a local - then it's probably just the way to work.

12 Most Terrifying Bridges You Don't Want To Cross
Some people have always been frightened of bridges. Gephyrophobia sufferers often try to avoid crossing bridges altogether, driving miles out of their way to avoid them. Of course, quite a few bridges can be rough experiences for those with acrophobia, as well. With some bridges, however, terror seems to be the only sensible response. Here, we look at 12 bridges that would turn anyone’s legs to jelly. Read on, but don’t look down.

*** the following bridges in video have significant openings between ties/slats/planks or use glass for slats/planks.

01:40 Royal Gorge Bridge, USA * occasionally they allow cars to drive across despite the gaps
03:42 Puente de Ojuela, Mexico
05:37 Coiling Dragan Path, China
07:48 Kuandinsky Bridge, Russia
06:26 Q'eswachaka bridge, Peru
09:20 Hongyagu Bridge, China
10:40 Hussaini Hanging Bridge, Pakistan ** more empty space than slats
11:39 IYA Kazurabashi Bridge, Japan

@markbloomfield (2020) A couple months ago I ran a cross country race that ended on the far side of #11, the Royal Gorge Bridge. The last quarter mile was across the bridge, and I can confirm the whole thing shakes when people are on it, and it has lots of gaps an inch or two wide. There were several people who would have placed high in the race but refused to cross it. It definitely was one of the most memorable race finishes.

@user-rm2uv4jc2m @user-rm2uv4jc2m (2021) I’ve been to the royal gorge and you can literally see through the gaps in the wooden planks and it’s very scary!!

@TotallyLA @TotallyLA (2021) I've crossed the Royal Gorge bridge. I could see through the slats to the ground and it swayed badly. I was almost too afraid to cross it again to get back.

Unfortunately, some people traumatized their dogs by making them walk on see-through glass bridge.
Only one dog willingly walked across (was this dog stupid or blind!!!)
The bridge owners do have a way to get revenge on some dog owners.

This glass bridge will give you nightmares

The question isn't one of compatibility, but one of complexity. The vault has to pass that gap, open or not, or both.

Tesla Mexico is on nearly twice the land as Austin.

I thought Austin would be the pinnacle of Tesla world, and lessor giga's would spawn across the world. Not so.

We can write a long list... It is going to be mind blowing.

For example... if it is bigger that Austin... it will grow to only 10,000 employees ?

And 10,000 Robots... ?

Autonomous trucks carting goods? Autonomous taxi's autonomously driving to their work space?

I'm seeing Tesla taking an enormous jump on their competitors. Checkmate, game over.

18 months.

That’s a pretty interesting insight. GigaAustin Cybertruck production just for domestic market, GigaMexico producing international cybertruck… sooooo….. Australian deliveries 2025?

Christmas Day 2024! (Xmas Wishes)
Just in time for the Summer of '25
CYBERTRUCK touches down like a Cyclone!

From what I understand, ~12 months until start of production. That’s the goal Zhu set anyhow.

Tom Zhu believes it will be built in record time knocking out Shanghai which broke ground in January and was built by October, so about the 9.5 month mark.
Faster, Stronger, BIGGER! imo

a few years back, hourly wages in Mexico in dollar terms were 40 per cent lower than in China. Haven’t seen brought-down figures recent, but can’t see a macro reason for things to have reversed

And I’ll be admittedly displaying some biases, but: MX has a young and growing labour force (in contrast), and our brethren to the near south can do the business on some building.

not all good facts for the people of Mexico, but if you’re a car company…

They are still permitting in Mexico. I think he said they’d break ground in 3 months and production starts 9 months after that.

au moins une bonne nouvelle ! reste maintenant le poids ! j'espère moins de 3500 kgs !!

Hopefully. Elon was saying they were targeting somewhere near 2400 kgs. That's the weight of a Ford F150.

I've decided to believe they're launching both mid and full size together

I'm basing this on my gut source

 

[Suskis]

That vault cover going to be Cybertruck's Achilles Heel, similar to the gullwing doors on the X. The tolerances will be too tight and as the truck flexes hard or endures stress over time that cover will bind. I've been driving full-size trucks since '95 and always had camper shells.

This will be like nothing you have ever driven. Flex and stress should not be an option as CT is 3mm stainless steel

There is always "some" flex. But the CT will be somewhat akin to driving an I-beam down the road. Between the skin, the castings, and the battery pack you basically have a large U-channel, and you are in sitting in the middle of it.

If you are worried about fitting 4x8 sheets of plywood into the vault, don’t worry too much, iPhone measure app says 4x8 sheets are actually only 3’9”
