Cybertruck vs Lightning

[MilliM]

I have owned both the Lightning and the CT. I find myself missing my Lightning now and then. It was slightly more comfortable spacious inside. I switched to the CT for a few simple reasons.

• Adjustable ride height
• Sentry mode, 360° dash cam
• Ding/dent resistant panels
• Supercharger access(this one has been nullified since)
• I didn't want to lose my spot after 4 years of waiting
• It just looked cool.

That said I feel the Lightning offers way more value for the money and I miss a lot of its practical features that the CT lacks. If I could merge both into 1 truck I would be so happy.

Features I miss:

• Opening sunroof
• Opening rear window
• Better visibility
• Collapsible/lockable rear seat storage
• HUGE frunk with outlets
• Step to get into the bed
• More cupholders
• Instrument panel.
• Stalks and buttons.

TLDR; I love my CT, but its not perfect. If you are looking to save money go with the Lightning, its a really great practical vehicle. If you are looking for the most fun and neatest toy on the planet, get the CT.

As a former Lightning owner you nailed how I feel too. My family likes the CT, but as a road tripper they loved the feel of the Lightning. That said, the Supercharger network going from OC to Idaho was so much better than EA and EVGo on our OC to Vail trip).
