Scratch and Sniff - Cybertruck Show & Tell From Hands-On Seat Time in Showroom

[TL4]

It seems that all of the Cybertrucks in the showrooms were open to the public to sit in and play with as of 6pm last night.
I spent about an hour poking around the the one in the showroom in League City TX just outside of Houston today. Completely surprised when I showed up, there were 4 Cybertrucks in the back lot, 2 in the delivery showroom and 1 more in the service center showroom that was open to scratch and sniff. Fantastic!

A couple querks and features (shout out to DeMuro).
1. I think they added little rubber corner protectors on the bottom corners of the hood. I don’t remember seeing that in any media before. Good move.
2. The edges are not nearly as sharp as many have made them out to be on the panels.
3. I’m 6’4” and my head just barely touches the glass in the back seat.
4. It is really solid. The built quality is great.
5. Give me my Cybertruck! (first week reservation holder, still waiting)

Adding in my 2 cents. Stopped by the showroom in Rocklin, CA yesterday and they did indeed remove the ropes. Got the chance to climb in and play around a bit. Initial thoughts

• Very first thing I noticed was how big it looked. Seeing it in person the first time it looks just massive. Ride height was all the way up.
• Cabin is incredibly spacious. It felt like you were in a truck. Lots of space up front, lots in the back.
• Sitting in the drivers seat the thing I noticed most (after squirkle and massive MASSIVE display) was just how much space there is on the dash. That dash is DEEP, and I wonder long it will take to get used to driving it since it isn’t super clear where the front of the truck is from the drivers seat
• That display is large and gorgeous. Made my Y display feel small
• Tonneau cover is so slick
• The body is a finger print magnet. Seriously
• I liked the operation of the doors more than I thought I would. Very cool to push a button and have them present
• Vault storage below the bed is more spacious than I thought
• Frunk space feels very small, although seems like it would do great for storing groceries
• The sound system is as good as everyone says it is
• In my short time with it I found the build quality to be very good.

I hope new deliveries will have those rubber corner bumpers! Nice touch...

Hood corner protects are new, I wonder if they will send that to existing owners without them

Did you see any CT in the lot or being picked up?
