‘FF’ in hexadecimal is ‘255’

Yep, and if YT started counting subscribers at "0", then I would be subscriber #255! Apples to Apples!

I dont know for sure but I'm gonna say yes

We’ve had this discussion before a while back. The tonneau cover rolls down into there. I don’t think the rear window comes down, too, but it absolutely should.

No. The vault cover rolls down into it.

No. The vault cover rolls down into it.

And that makes it impossible for glass to roll down too?

that’s the thing

I don’t think there is much of any added utility for camping

First, I don’t think many are going to be willing to sleep in this vault. It’s 6’1” only at the bed floor, with bulkhead sloping forward. Anyone near 6’ going to fit comfortably only diagonally,~solo. And, vault closed, it’s going to be like a coffin. Not saying no one would, but it’ll be unattractive space for most.

Second, the window rolling down does almost nothing to improve the space. It was always a niece dream to think that rolling down that rear window could materially condition heat/cool the vault. Take one ride in a truck without rear seat vents and that’ll prove out.

I could go on and elaborate, but ultimately many of the ideas floating around would meet a reality that - if nothing else, Tesla would be very unlikely to *advertise* as a meaningful use-case.

And for those still insisting on these use cases, there’ll be aftermarket solutions to address these things. Replacement rear windows with sliders and attachable vent fans, pop-ups, etc.

None of this is to say there’s be zero utility. Instead that there would be low utility, and people dying to do it will have other options than Tesla building it into every unit to come off the assembly line.

I think Elon has suggested that 2-3 years after CT is up and running, Tesla is considering a van based on the CT architecture. A van could serve as a work utility vehicle as well as a camper. If this is actually true, it could be a reason for leaving all these extras off the CT because they know most customers looking for this kind of usage would prefer a van over a truck anyway.

The rolling bed cover pretty much ensures that there will be no passthrough and no rear window that goes down.

There are too many safety issues that rolling cover creates

The same safety issues that having roll down windows do?

Or power doors or gates?

I'm pretty sure the body in black pictures show us the bulkhead will be designed to be static, so no midgate. Even though I want there to be one.

I just don't see any of these other reasons for or against to be definitive.

Hmmmmm????? That really really looks like a Pass-through

OMG... it does look that way... but Im still telling myself "nope, not happening"

Everybody is talking midgate, glass opening, but nobody on these 7 pages has commented on the large cutout in the bed , bed liner?
Is that another runk / rear trunk? Or access to the battery pack.

Please explain since there is no mention to it.
