If you could request three factory add-ons, what would they be?

1- colored steel or at least awesome wraps from the factory
2- seats that recline fully and turn into a comfortable bed for when the Cybertruck can drive itself to the pre-programmed destination :sleep:
3- tinted windows and glass roof (at the push of a button like Mercedes)
bonus option: airless tires to go with the indestructible body and armored glass

The toggle on/off tint is actually a really nice feature that I had not thought of. We all enjoy dark tint during the day, but it does get annoying at night at times.

  1. Built-in Starlink satellite internet connection
  2. Built-in flamethrowers
  3. Built-in clean vapor cloud emitter to cover diesel trucks that try to roll coal onto other Tesla’s with a clean, eco-friendly fog that will water the flowers when it condenses. Extra points if it can also be formulated with turmeric or hibiscus to create bright colors like aerial acrobatic jets!

1) Mid-gate as flexible as possible
2) Mounting for snowplows / winch
3) Having compressed air is already planned / Have the capacity to run most air tools not just air tires slowly (the lowest bar)
4) Have the park height a setting. Eliminates the need for running boards that deploy. Some people aren't going to want it to squat when they park. Some people will need it to get in and out.
5) AC 120v Power in the cabin too.
6) heated and cooled seats.
7) storage everywhere it makes sense. Lockable cabin storage. pin on the center screen to open. That should be an option for the glove box already on all vehicles.
8) Drains with rubber stoppers in all external storage.
9) cabin floor storage if possible with drains. Rams have this.
10) accessory controls on the center screen with plugs for things like plows, winches, lights, etc.
11) Firewall wiring ports through most interior panels, with rubber rings and plugs.
12) auto level for camping. Make the truck cabin completely level when parked on uneven ground.
13) Fifth wheel gooseneck kit / compatible. Might not be possible with the sails.
14) In addition to the rear charging port. A front port. For nose in charging at existing supercharger locations while towing a trailer. Won't work for all locations, but for some it would be fine. Put it in the frunk for aesthetic reasons.

Full factory tow package - should include the brake controller, hitch receiver, back up assist, etc
Solar panels anywhere they can go and outlets in front, back and bed
Cab to bed access but not just a limited pass through, seats fold down or swing to each side

Adding a fourth - center front mid seat/console/nothing option and those swivel seats sound nice

1. Boat mode.
2. Submarine mode.
3. Flame thowers.

OK back to reality.

1. Winch front/back
2. Trailer harness that allows for extra FSD cameras, battery, solar panels, and matched air suspension on trailer.
3. No air tires and/or convenient spare tire location.

I'm hoping that the midgate fold down happens too.

If you had a direct line to Elon Musk, what would you ask he add to the options list? List three
1.) Range extending battery pack to bolt/strap in the vault maybe even in a trailer. Compatible with BMS and cooling/heating. These could be rented out at Tesla Service center or on a shared lease network.
2.) Basic read only dash layout. No controls just most frequently used info. (Might already be the standard)
3.) Long range dual motor version. This should be #1.

1) Front winch with optional rear

2) make it amphibious so you can attach a propeller to the driveshaft (Hell, you’re making it airtight eventually for mars right)

3) some sort of hail proof windows and roof. It would suck to be bulletproof and then be taken out by large hail

There's no driveshaft in an EV.

It'll resist most hail. But of course, just like there's bigger faster bullets, there's bigger harder hail...

If we’re being pedantic the Cybertruck would have two half shafts. But realistically a prop or impeller would either get its own motor or possibly a power take off from the gear box.

I do wonder which option would be lighter? Two bumper mounted propellors would probably be simpler but would the extra power available from rear motor be necessary?

The other thing that would make this a slightly better amphibious vehicle is the flat bottom of the vehicle and with a little adjustment to the bump stops the air suspension could pull the wheels up out of the way.

I really love the idea of Cybertruck being amphibious, my dream of living on a harbour sheltered island are way more exciting with that possibility.
