Uhh... shouldn't this have been before they started producing/selling them?
That's the advantage of Tesla. They don't have to optimize everything before the vehicle ships. The Cybertruck will get better over time, just by updating software.
Odds are that they are working to optimize some of the towing algorithms.

Hmmm not testing with aero covers, probably really knew to leave them off.

That's not how Tesla rolls.

Now look at your username and tell me you wanted them to hold off release until they had fine-tuned every parameter to perfection. Tesla releases when the hardware is proven and fine tunes the software as they sell them. We get leading edge vehicles sooner and they continue to get better over time.

What's not to like? My Model 3 Performance was the same way.

You, say that, but go back and look at the posts on this website for the past few years and tell that to the hundreds of POSTERS that literally said, "I don't care, here take my money, NOW!"

I do get it; a work of Art is always in progress (until it is not). The CT is as much almost as much a software product as it is a hardware product you are buying .... ;)
It will never be static, until it ceases production.

FWIW, I occasionally design and build houses, for myself or family. I have learned that ONE has to build, live in (for at least a year), change, modify, update and then repeat the same house design at least 3X to get it right!!

The CT is 90% there, but technology advances, changing demands, changing "tastes", hell even fashion trends require updates.

Saying all that and KNOWING by the time ANY of us get our Tesla CT that it is already outdated.... TESLA, please email me.... I am happy to jump into the pool, NOW. :cool:

Guess I’m out of the loop as to why these spy shots show “endurance” testing.

It’s… just got a normal weighted trailer behind it.

Seems the “endurance testing” concept comes just from this xweet’s conjecture? Or is there some … endurance-specific facilities here?

And if so, what’s an endurance facility?
