OK Elon, I do a LOT of off road driving, not recreationally but because I have to, so I hope this baby delivers. Also, would it be a big ask to make an option to have a dumping bed, that would be REALLY handy; Cyber dump truck, with stowable lumber rack and multiple winch attachment points, or tow receivers.

It doesn't look like the belly of the truck lifts much. So while it's pretty exciting that there's a big wheel gap, it doesn't look like it's going to be able to clear something like a log or a rock even 12 in in height.
It should drive right over something even 16” high. If those are 35” wheels, and the bottom of the truck is well above the midpoint of the wheel, then that’s close to 20”.

I think even Elon says there will be a small amount produced in 2023 and production getting into gear in 2024.
But it would be nice to get an early production model. I think I would see more attention to detail on the early runs.
my model 3 LR is an early 2019 and it is nearly flawless.
Ya I got one of those around here too. 20’ SR+. New Y. Tacoma.. a box truck.

But I just want my stupid Cybertruck.

What happened to the 4-wheel Steering? In the clip, that prototype's rear wheels never twitch from straight ahead... but making that corner would have been much easier with 4WS

DM'd directly asking for a source to help him get the higher quality downloaded in case he doesn't know how, and I am being ghosted.

it's for everyone bro. PLZZZZ @Trucky
no intention of ghosting, just logged back on after posting the video… I’ll see what can be done for resolution of the video…

cheers

Unlikely. The foreground when zoomed shows the guys leg. The poster took this from somewhere with a crappy download.
The video was texted, could have sent in low res… next time I’ll ask for 4K😂

when they call I will make sure to order the 4 motor, whatever the price.
that’s the only way to insure early Production according to the rumors.
Pretty frustrating though.
I have family in San Antonio And Austin Texas so hopefully they will let me pick it up at the factory. I intend to do a few months touring the mainland before I ship it home to Hawaii

Uhhh quite possible you have your before EOY 23’. This year. I’m serious.

I’m seeing more and more tooling show up. Conveyors, more molds, etc. stuff I haven’t posted up yet. Couple dozen more assembly bots.
Sounds like you are working in the Austin TX manufacturing Plant. so when does it look like the first 100 will roll off?

Cyber Rodeo prototype in motion … suspension is in off-road mode making the tires look tiny…






Edit: previous statement by Elon regarding adaptive air suspension

Wait, did Zapruder take this shot?

I think they just look out of proportion because the truck is raised up so high. Pretty sure those are the 35” tires the truck comes with. Maybe 32s.

I do wonder how big a tire you can get onto this without running into issues with rubbing.

I was thinking of doing the same thing. I'm restoring my Father's house in NYC and I was thinking of having the Truck delivered there and driving it across country and then shipping from CA to HI. The only problem is, I'm something like 500,000 in line so I guess I would be lucky to even get in in 2024. I better be done with the restoration by then! :oops::D

I think you guys are missing the whole point here! Clearly the Cybertruck has time travel capabilities! How else was it able to be so easily filmed with a 2006 flip phone?
