Owner: tonneau bed cover is pretty water resistant and my consumption is 468 Wh/mi so far

Sometimes you just want to know where it falls, so you can deal with it smarter, later.

Excellent, thank you!

I'm thinking of replacing that rear window with a lexan window that I can have a hole cut in, and then connect round flex ductwork from the rear HVAC port ...

While I don't know if it would be a good idea to replace the rear window with something that flexible, instead of all the ducting, just put an electric fan into the window. No ducting required, fresh air, works even when you are driving. reverse flow to bring in additional outside air while on the road, without opening a window.

It has been raining for 2 days in socal, and I opened the bed cover multiple times in the rain just to show people the truck. I noticed that the bed is very water resistant and way better than my F150 with the retrax. I took the picture this morning, most of the water marks are from kids step on the bed last night. The water usually leaks from both sides, but I found the leakage is very minimal.

I think I would invest in 2 sets of the Cyberbins to keep things dry and tidy .Looks like many current Cybertruck owners agreed; they are all out of stock and has been for awhile?

Why would they not wipe that first?

They were trying to see how much of it went through the cover system and onto the ground and how much went into the vault.
Spoiler, ALL of it went into the vault
Rain might not pile up as much and obviously rain is not easy to wipe off, hence the question.

it was a test

True. A very predictable test. Like opening the driver's door without clearing away the snow first.

Is there a roll-top tonneau cover that doesn't do that if you don't brush the snow off first? Nope.

YouTubers do the stupid things so we don't have to.

I just came back from big bear lake. The temperature there today was around 36f with some rain and snow. Tesla trip does not tell me the average speed, but I was driving around 80mph on the freeway both directions and around 30-40 going up to the mountain and 10-20 coming down (a lot of traffics).
Also when I was packing for the kids I found that for small load, you don’t actually need a truck bed divider because the under bed storage cover has very strong hydraulic rods that keep the cover open and the bed cover close perfectly when the under bed storage cover is open. Things will not rolling around if they can fit in there.
The storage compartments on 4 doors are big as well. They fit my 40oz hydro flask without any problem.

saw the fresh snow on the Eagle cam!

Did the under bed compartment stay dry?

Enhance picture attached. What I want to say is ignore all the FUDs and click baits. The truck’s range is good enough for daily commute and road trips, especially with Tesla superchargers. IMHO a 250 miles EPA rated Tesla is better than 450 miles lucid for road trip just because of the Tesla supercharging network. I know Tesla is opening up the superchargers for other OEMs but I think they will only open non-congested sites. Only Tesla can have “full” access to all the superchargers. If people tows a lot that’s when extended battery is needed.
