Round Steering Wheel hope? Seen in Cybertruck prototype video

[uscbucsfan]

Steer by wire, solar tonneau, 4 motors, Plaid version, facial recognition on the doors, etc.

Who knows what it will actually have or won't have. Elon says a lot of stuff, but much of it never comes to fruition.

I have some hopes there will be a higher and lower end version.

Edit: Although, if I recall correctly, Elon never promised steer-by-wire...only said it would be ideal or hopeful or something similar.

IMO, I think we are going to be pleasantly surprised once the config tool is released. I think we are going to have plenty of options to choose from. That coupled with the "secret accessories team" is going to allow us to configure our CT how we want.

I prefer the yoke.

But my biggest disappointment is that those robots did not complete their dance number.

I am bummed that one didn’t jump in the CT and go for a joy ride. I mean come on. Is the AI robot apocalypse happening or not.

I’m sure it’ll be a option….

... after a while, if Model S is anything to go by.

i like the cluster behind the wheel

I still want the gauges Cluster, I hope this will be in there. It will be a major disappointment if they drop it.

I think Tesla learned from putting the yoke into the Model S......the majority of people want a roundi(ish) steering wheel.

If someone wants a yoke, maybe down the road Tesla can offer it as a $750 option.

It would be kinda silly to ask someone to pay $750 extra to leave part of the steering wheel off.

Personally, I want a yoke, because I want the extra visibility, and I've never had a problem learning to drive vehicles that had different controls.

The yoke is $250 more on the MS/X and there is a take rate according to TMC.

The $750 is to buy a yoke or round wheel after you have delivery.

I was responding to your comment that maybe Tesla can offer it as a $750 option. If they offer two types of steering wheels, the pricing will almost certainly follow the other models which charge $250 more for a yoke. I'll check that box to get a yoke because, as a human, I know how adaptable humans are (but only those who think they are adaptable). People who think they are not adaptable will have trouble adapting.

Same, love my Yoke.

I often drive one handed (mostly straight roads) with my left hand at 12:00 or my right hand at 6:00. I think the yoke steering wheel wouldn't give me the leverage to properly control the steering. Other than that I like the yoke, but don't think my driving style supports it. Yeah yeah, when FSD is out of beta "later this year" it won't be as relevant, but until then the round wheel might be more practical.

We've discussed many times that the supplemental safety restraint system assumes your hands are at nine and three... if your hand is at twelve, you're covering the airbag and your arm will be broken and thrown into your face if they activate. And they're designed to activate when needed, not when you're ready.

They also recommend not hooking your thumbs into the wheel except when necessary, so your hands can be pushed away from the steering wheel without incurring injury.
