I would agree that there aren't enough pull-thru SC stations currently, and for awhile some will need to unhook their trailer to charge. But there's no chance this will impede the CT's production progress.

There's even a term for that: "Elon Time". Tesla slows for nothing and no one. How did Franz put it..."If you're not sure, then you're sure, keep moving" lol
Deliveries this year are going to be small. Something like 0.1% of miles driven by trucks are done with trailers many of those miles close to home. This might be a problem for a few people, but not widespread.

Maybe those squares are 10 inches... 12 inched maks it too long... 10 inches maybe.

1 inch variance > <

That would make it about 5% shorter

19 feet is just under the length of an F150 Supercrew 5 foot 5 inch bed truck. The Lightning is 232 inches.

So it's exactly right.

In one side, the CyberTruck goes. Out the other side of the wall comes the KoolAid Man. "Oh yeaaaaaaah!"

Looking at the thumbnail for this thread, I kinda like chopped up CT (the right image). I am sure their engineers could make the chopped up tail slide out for when you need it.

Maybe I am not getting this but are we to believe that the truck stops so fast it does not crash into the wall?
That was exactly what I thought when I saw the video too.

We never see the impact. We see it approach the wall, and we see people reacting. So, maybe they've just witnessed how well it goes from 60 to zero and stops literally inches from the wall.

Can't tell if you're joking

Neither can I. The media says the video was an April Fool's Day prank, which is why it never actually crashes.

I just wonder if they had a second motive, and that the ending wasn't edited. Perhaps it never actually hit the wall.

Fair.

I don't think there was a second motive besides joking and probably actually crashing the truck.
