* Storage compartments in the dash reachable from the driver's side! Not for guns haha but paperwork, files, stuff, laptop.

* simple (and cheap!) fold out tent thing for long trips, camping.

* I want to be able to power my tiny house with the CT.

* Solar panels.

I think this is THE package to have. Pls Elon make it happen.

Love all the really creative, inventive and surprisingly functional requests submitted.

Auxiliary batterypack!

Dedicating a battery built-in to a towed trailer does not pencil. Powerwalls can pencil in more ways than one, financially. Use Powerwalls as mobile electrons or mobile PP/Gen set.

Range anxiety be damned! Xtend range with additional battery packs to CT‘s structural pack. Powerwalls stacked vertical SXS arranged front to rear in bed of CT.

Towing with the hitch can run full-stacked front to rear. Fifth wheel applications half-stacked+flat-stacked under/behind 5th wheel.

Removable; ‘cuz cyber electrons move to permanent wall use. Powerwall P’nP recepticle design exercise and CT integration components by Tesla.

The following wishlist was first compiled by @TyPope. This post is now a "wiki post" and can be edited by all members, so add your wishlist items to the list!

It's a "comprehensive wish list" of things people would like to see in the Cybertruck that hasn't already been confirmed. These are things that are NOT already confirmed by Tesla.

Cybertruck Wishlist [add yours below]:
  1. Trailer brake controls
  2. 2" receiver on front and back built into the body. With access to the pin through a door in the rear of the bed and front trunk to put the locking pin in. This would make the attachments ie. trailer hitch, wench nearly theft proof.
  3. Solar wing. Gun safe. Accessible from outside.
  4. Cyber Trailer with battery to extend Cybertruck towing range.
  5. Solar Roof in addition to Solar Vault cover. The Solar Vault would add about 15 miles per day (per Elon). If adding a solar roof would add another 10 miles, it could take care of my 20 mile round-trip commute for most of the year!
  6. Solid roof for mounting Solar Roof.
  7. Heated AND cooled seats (all 6)
  8. Kneel-down for getting in/out of the Cybertruck
  9. Insulated frunk cooler (we know it has a frunk... let's make a cooler out of it!)
  10. Inclinometer
  11. Trail camera
  12. Tire inflation system
  13. Ability to pick one tire off the ground to make changing it easier. (independently controllable air shocks would do it.
  14. Free Supercharging (Hey, a guy can dream, can't he?)
  15. "Knight Rider" light across the front during charging.
  16. Autonomous trailer connection... Similar to Summon. You get it close to the tongue of the trailer, step out, and hit "Connect to Trailer" or something. It kneels down to get the ball under the trailer hitch, backs up appropriately, and then lifts up so that you can confirm a good connection, swing the tongue jack away, chain the trailer, and connect it electrically (including the Tesla trailer Camera which connects to the CT and lets you see behind the trailer like GM is showing in its commercials now.
  17. Electro-chromatic glass for privacy and to help keep it cool when not occupied!
  18. Seating options to have 2 captains seats in the front instead of a middle seat replaced by a middle console.
  19. Access to pedestrian speaker. Enable music to be played outside.
  20. A HUD. Yes!
  21. A better dash
  22. rear wall can fold flat into the cabin, level with the bed.
  23. Since the truck comes with a compressor. Make the rear seats airbags so they can be deflated for more room.
  24. rear seat bottoms can flop forward to create a large flat surface perfect for a mattress
  25. Four-Wheel Steering or at least a great turning radius
  26. Drain plug in the rear storage compartment in the vault to use as an ice chest if needed.
  27. Air Horn, since onboard compressor.
  28. V2G (vehicle to grid please)
  29. Controls for the vault cover inside the bed so when using it for sleeping you can open up easily
  30. Four hundred plus miles for Dual motor AWD, HUD, and better dash.
  31. [Add yours to the list by clicking "Edit" button below]
  32. rear bed ready from factory for a Flush fit cyber hitch.com & may be offered as a factory option.
  33. Matrix LED/laser auto highlights
  34. No cabin carpet or easily removed carpet with drain plugs so cabin can be washed out when (not if) it gets dirty.
  35. Small screens in the back of the left / Right seats. So passengers could watch movies, play games, surf the web, use misc apps. without bothering the driver (Maybe they should be forced to use Headphones to not disturb the driver) as well as their own climate controls and heated seat settings.
  36. A Starlink (SpaceX internet service) antenna. Roving high speed internet everywhere!
  37. Quad-motor for additional towing capacity, quicker 0-60, and allow all wheels to operate independently to perform tank turns.
  38. Rocket thruster (similar to roadster but more important in a truck) to become un-stuck in mud or snow plus quicker 0-60.
  39. 120 plug in the front and rear storage boxes to plug a cooler in.
  40. Heavy-duty hook at the front of the box to attach a come-along or winch to for bringing things up the ramp.
  41. Sleeper chairs for front seats. Maybe also back seats.
  42. Animated overhead view of truck or truck and trailer while backing up
  43. 5.5 Footbed options
  44. Cab lights
  45. High amp 12V terminal in cab with audio connections for expandable audio system

Intelligent brake and tail lights. Lights would get brighter and start flashing at approaching traffic.

Going through all the effort to install solar on the tonneau cover they should definitely give an option for solar glass on the roof. We install solar glass on building exteriors so it should work on the roof

There needs to be access from the cab to the bed of the truck. Ideally fold down back panel for a mattress or better sleeping arrangement or at least a roll down back window like the Toyota’s to give access to the vault from in the cab while out in the snow etc.

In the images it looks like there is a long black skirt under the side doors. If that doesn’t pop out or fold down to be a step/running board I will be very disappointed. I am sure aftermarket ones will come out very quickly but it seems like a slick move for Tesla to include it standard like the higher end ICE trucks do

They should install ferrous plate steel in key locations under the stainless shell to mount magnetic towing lights etc. if needed

Smaller tie down/strap storage or other small storage cubbies in the vault walls. No one likes to organize their tie downs after use but if you throw them in the cab or in the toolbox they get intertwined with everything. Yes, there are ways to organize these, but having small compartments specifically for these would be amazing

Even if it doesn’t have side mirrors. They definitely should have attachments in that location for aftermarket or optional mirrors. Some trailers are wide and relying on cameras only does not seem very safe.

A passthrough so I can sleep in the vault but have access to the cab to watch movie on screen .
I am admittedly going to be very sad if there is no pass through. I have little kids and they would go crazy to camp in the truck and the pass through is a must.
