Cybertruck w/ Bike Tailgate Pad Carries 4 Bicycles in Bed (5th Possible?) 🚲

[Sasmania]

Hopefully Tesla has plans to make a tailgate pad. Rivian did a good implementation https://rivian.com/gear-shop/p/rivian-tailgate-pad

Wait.. but why?

CyberTruck don't need no stinkin pad.

The best pad is no pad...

If it can take a bullet, it can take a bike tire.

OOOHHHHH it's to protect the BIKE. Now I get it.....

The X's aero envelope would be completely different, these bikes aren't completely out of it unlike those on an X. -Crissa

Can you explain the underlined part more?

Can you?

Because I think bikes mostly inside of the vault will have a different aerodynamic hit than bikes sticking off the end of a faberge egg.

The airflow is now dropping down into the bed of the CT vs when the sloped tonneau was there (ie. ala. my graphic).

I got the impression you had some ideas and thought the CT with bikes 1/2 in an open bed would be an estimated ?% better than breaking up airflow over the back of the TMX.

I said it would be different. Because it's definitely not a parachute.
