So yesterday was really windy in the Bay area. I noticed when parked at a traffic light, I could feel the wind moving the truck side to side, so seems most of the aerodynamics comes from front to back (as you would expect).

One other thing I noticed, in highest height setting, I think you are maxed out at 25 mph. Also, when you are on the highway you are locked into low ride height.

I try to avoid driving sideways whenever possible :LOL:

So I did an experiment last night to see how my cars lost battery percentage overnight. All 3 cars (CT, 2018 3 and 2023 Y) had sentry mode on and were not plugged in. My 2018 3 was in my garage and CT and Y were in the driveway. Looks like my weather last night got to a low of 43 degrees Fahrenheit. And as you can see from these screenshots, the CT and Y lost 4% battery overnight, so at least they are performing the same as other Tesla's. My 3 in the garage lost 3%. My garage door is insulated and I do have drywall on the walls (no insulation on the outer walls though).

when you picked it up from Dublin did they make a big deal out of it? like a show, smoke? etc.

It was roped off outside and they have certain team members that focus on the CT. I wouldn't call it making a big deal out of it but they treated me well.

You need to do the Easter egg thing to get the fifth icon 😁

What is that? Do you mean breaking the window on the screen?

My two powerwalls lost 1% over that same period of time.
my two powerwalls over night once in a while lose 1 percent. That's only 27kw but 4 percent of 123kw? it's like running a microwave all night. My house would be dead in the morning at that rate. It's just surprising. Guess I'll have to plan on running an extension cord to my neighbors house. Ha!
