Yet another justification for installing the Miltek sound synthesizer. I'll have a sound file of a feminine voice cooing "Yoo-hoo, handsome..." and then I'll just follow ever other man in the parking lot to my truck. ;)

Not to put too fine a point on it but, the responsibility to account for where you've left your, shoes, bike, keys, wallet, phone, on and on and on, should be a skillset fully realized before you venture out upon the highways. So parking the slightly smaller than a naval warship and the ability to recall the approximate "pier" to return to should be a cinch. Plus as an added bonus, your government has mandated that a unique placard to be affixed to the ass of every vehicle to ensure not only you find your truck and drive it, no one else will either. Worst case, should remembering 7 randomized letters and digits be too much, a quick visit to a bicycle shop should provide access to a miniature plate with your first name to add the piece of mind you need. /s

My Highlander is a complete belly button car. Last fall I was in a parking lot and I opened the back hatch and started loading stuff inside before I realized it wasn't my car. Which was followed by the awkward moment of me pulling stuff out of a stranger's car. Mine was parked next to it.

I want you all to put crazy wraps on your CTs.

I can see this happening after a few years of production when hundreds of thousands of CT’s are in the hands of new owners. With all of the trucks leaving the assembly plant with bare stainless steel body panels all of the non-wrapped Cybertrucks are going to look identical:)

Just use your vehicle SUMMON feature and the right CT will come pick you up. Or by then they will have a wrist watch which leads you to your CT.

Haha. Funny thought, but I'm pretty sure everyone will be summoning them. and I plan to make a big low rez led screen on the sides

Reminds me of an old wierd friend who would attach a couple helium(he actually used hydrogen) baloons to his car when he went to large parking lots.

I believe there would be some options, decorations, emblems difference for personal expression. ( I will have a few myself)


If you still can't determine which is yours, either check the VIN/LICENSE plate number, or use your app to flash your lights or honk your horn.. lol

But seriously, with 100M parking lots in the US, I think we’re a LONG ways off from having this problem. You might see two in a single lot in a couple years, and that shouldn’t be a problem.

The real near term problem is getting to the vehicle through the crowd of people checking it out (and hopefully not hitting it with hammers or throwing ball bearings at it.)

Meh...Iconic design doesn't have an identity issue. A famous racecar driver when asked " which color looks better on the BMW2002?" replied " any".

SO break a leg with your <FAV> color

Think they'll have it working by then?

Or by then they will have a wrist watch which leads you to your CT.
It may not currently work well enough that you would dare use it in a full parking lot but it does show the relative position of the car and your smart phone on the phone's display and, I suppose, on your Apple watch.
