Ok my bad, it counts towards on-duty time which reduces total time per week (70 hours), but can be in the 30 min break time period.
Uhh... have you.... uhh... charging time isn't fueling time?Break is required, but fueling time cannot overlap with break time. When you are fueling you are considered working and its not a break.
I assume charging will fall under the same DOT rule.
I would think a different rule applies here. Charging is pretty passive.Uhh... have you.... uhh... charging time isn't fueling time?
I hope they can start a charge and go take their break.

Starting to make me think of the holidays..Well, we should be on Cybertruck #2 today.
To me the big dream would be 500 mile range at 14000lbs towing (21000 GCWR imo) with a bull nose 8x26 box trailer.If we are going to dream, dream BIG!
Why are the tri-motor specs a big dream? Or is it a dream to have these specs for a dual trim, which would definitely be a big dream.To me the big dream would be 500 mile range at 14000lbs towing (21000 GCWR imo) with a bull nose 8x26 box trailer.
You will need a Semi for that.To me the big dream would be 500 mile range at 14000lbs towing (21000 GCWR imo) with a bull nose 8x26 box trailer.
...Because the rated range won't be towing. It's not a tractor-trailer. You'll need more batteries.Why are the tri-motor specs a big dream? Or is it a dream to have these specs for a dual trim, which would definitely be a big dream.
most govt regulations come from somebody at sometime not being too bright.... or something killing or hurting a lot of people....therefore it isn't govt stupidity but people stupidity.Do most government regulations?
Agree except most times it comes from a lot of somebodies at many times not being too brightmost govt regulations come from somebody at sometime not being too bright.... or something killing or hurting a lot of people....therefore it isn't govt stupidity but people stupidity.
Would the crash data be accurate on trucks made by hand instead of by the production process? Seems like for accurate crash testing they would have to pluck a few random samples from the line. Could be a valid thing to make a few vehicles to validate their construction process and see if there are any obvious things to correct before building up and automating the production line.They may have done this with the Model Y in Texas too. They had a few cars roll out for the first “Deliveries” at Giga Texas during Cyber Rodeo, then the factory didn’t produce another car for a while after that. (I think… too late and lazy to check the timing on when production started proper-like)
But if they did a “fake” start of deliveries, it would mean they are planning on opening up the config tool very soon.
EDIT: Popped over to Twitter and the account seems a bit… sketchy. No history of reliable leaks, account is less than 6 months old. Less than 2 weeks ago says “expect this account to be more active with Tesla rumors soon”.
I would treat it was highly suspect.

But… Musk was supposed to get his beta truck soon.
I'm curious whether the truck would hold together without the exoskeleton. I would like to see a schematic of the cybertruck showing the internal parts and the exoskeleton as separate parts... I am curious how they join together also. I suppose that drawing must exist but I haven't seen it.I understand and agree with your summary, but there just aren't that many CT parts that need to be stamped. That said, seats, plastic, drivetrains, suspension, displays, sensors, etc. (and general assembly) can all be worked on, and with the sample exoskeletons they can begin work on the BIW which will require what stampings they can create. It remains to be seen how much they have in place at GA and how much is coming from Fremont, but as they get the machines and commission them they will replace imported parts with manufactured parts.
