Your delivery was way better than mine. Waited an hour and half after my delivery appointment, said I had to go and they were like wait we’ll get your truck. It was in the back with a dead battery, covered in rust, dirt and scratches, exposed frunk seals, and a thick coat of grease on the windshield. Took me six hours of detailing it to get it looking half decent.

This is probably my last Tesla tbh.

Congrats!

I’m starting to see at least a couple of CT’s per day when driving around. Production is slowly increasing.
I still haven't seen one in the wild.

But apparently a few truckloads passed within a mile of me, according to the pictures this week x-x

Please do not use ammonia based glass cleaners to clean the stainless steel regularly. Huge misconception going around still. Congrats on your delivery. I do also agree w what others said, deliveries are probably going to be more normal Tesla-type. Quicker, seamless handoff. No more showy.

Refer to this poster who is a DeLorean owner:
https://www.cybertruckownersclub.co...taining-the-stainless-steel.12350/post-246339

Oh thanks for the reminder. I read this post before. CRL Bio-clean water does not contains any ammnoia based content. However it is really important to watch out.

It seems to me maintain the steelstain is more complex than regular paint LOL.

Well, you have to watch out for the pH of your cleaners or remember to neutralize them. With paint, you just don't want any of that sort of thing! It's more a matter of, not being used to it, and others being weird about it.

Everything has cleaners it likes and dislikes. The resistive surface of the stainless just lets light fragment back through it, showing up fingerprints like glass would. The thing is, it can have far worse things fall on it and be cleaned off than paint, without needing a protective but fragile wax coating.

Hey Guys. I finally too my devlivery of cybertruck today (Sunnyvale, CA). Timeline sharing here:

Order: A few hour after announce
RN: 11282xxx
Invitation: 1/9
Order: 1/14
VIN: 2/28
Delivery: 3/16

It is amazing product. While they took me to mine CT, it looks perfect. Much better than I thought. There is no alignment issue or any other issue or defect (Maybe there is still some place I do not notice yet). But overall it looks grest. I do notice there is some scratch line stuff on the tail gate and front. But they are all removable after I did some cleaning after got home, it turns out seems to be water stains. I used the glass cleaner and it works amazing, it just remove everything. I posted a photo down below for reference.

For driving experience, it feels so great. I do own quiet varity type of cars before. I had an Audi S4, then hummer H3, Audi TT and the BMW M2 I traded in for CT. From sport sedan, coupe, convertible to full size SUV. None of them feels like driving CT. CT make me feels like it is so easy to drive, and makes me feel like everything under control. The steering and acceleration like a sport car. But the view and height still remind you are driving a truck. This experience is so unique and so great.

For interior, it has so much space. Maybe I sat in my BMW for too long, I used to rest my left arm on door while driving, but cannot do that in CT due to the door is so far away LOL. The sound system is the best among all of the car I owned before. The first thing for my wife while she drives it is link her spotify account LOL.

At last I want to use Jack Rix's word from top gear review on CT: If you love it, you are going to love it even more when you meet it.

BTW, the delivery experience is bad. No big followers on the truck, no name tag, no unveil, nothing. Only a guy walked me to the CT and let me inspect it. After around 20 mins he came out to say you can accept in the App if no issue found and drive it away. Another guy came and imply us to drive it away to clear the drive way since another one is waiting to deliver. Be like: SHUT UP AND TAKE THE DELIVERY

I'm jealous of your delivery. They transferred a Cybertruck to you and told you to scoot!

I've been having dreams about that, then I wake up and reality hits me. It was only a dream.

and for the record, they can spit on me at delivery, just give me my truck in good condition (prefer excellent but will adapt)

Qtr end delivery experiences < mid quarter - they get quite busy AF and I can see timing playing a big role on experience at pickup - my m3p was a Dec 30, 2019 and took 3 hours...but the car still rocks for the past few years!

This is probably my last Tesla tbh.
Was the battery truly at 0 or just low? Dropping it to below zero and not charging right away is not idea for them.
Most people have said Tesla would not allow them to take delivery before it was cleaned and detailed, did you take any pictures of yours before cleaning, was it really bad or are you just OCD like me?

No doubt they are trying to slam out as many trucks as they can before the quarter ends, stock needs a serious shot in the arm and some good news and a high delivery number will help so going to be pushing them out as fast as they can.

Congratulations man, I’m happy for you!
I just took delivery of my Model Y a month ago because I reserved the cyber truck so late I’ll probably not see it..

my delivery experience was frustrating and rushed too. From what I understand it is location specific. Some are better than others Marina Del Ray was mine and even a staff member at another location revealed to me discreetly that they are known to suck.
At any rate have fun with your new toy
