Wade pit! Cybertruck in water fording test at Giga Factory [Aug 18]

[Coolbreeze704]

They will need to get back together once again when the Cybertruck comes out. They would have so much fun with it. I can only imagine the test or contest they will come up with for the CT. Would be one of the best viewed shows they produced.

It already has what it needs for an air jock. It simply needs Jack mode. 3 wheels full suspension, 1 wheel full retraction. Viola, air Jack mode!! Kind of like shoeing a horse.

I don't think the air spring bags are double acting. They normally only work on compression, meaning they can push down, but not pull up. To do this they would at least need a supplemental steel spring that has enough force to pull it up.

Even if it could pull one up, it would depend on the weight balance of the vehicle, otherwise it will just teeter totter over the diagonal. Not safe enough to change a spare, if the CT has one at all.

A horse manages to do this because it can change its center of gravity my moving it's body in comparison to its legs. Cars can't do this actively like they can. You at least need something to put it on to make it safe.

You thinking 'Periscope' (?) [007]

Lol no. It's like. Pad or something

 

[Monkchoi]

No thank you. I'll stick w/the "Turn around, don't drown".

The water test would be more for testing the total immersion integrity of the vehicle vs. just water proofing of components. Much the same as wristwatch depth rating.
Electronic failure from water can cascade to untold other system failures.

Floating cars are so last century

Might even be more than a century ago on Chitty Chatty Bang Bang

You thinkin' solar or sunshade over/under this rear glass. Leaning to solar myself, if only for the great Australian Sun burning this 'Road Warrior'....I know, MAD 2 THE MAX

I'm no 'Shock Jock', however this came to mind. The Citroen DS 'Princess' could travel without one of the wheels. An assassination attempt on De Gaulle saw the DS race away on only three wheels.
Could the CYBERTRUCK be the perfect Presidential Vehicle or POPEMOBILE(?)

Lower all suspension, close the valve so the flat wheels strut cannot get air, inflate others. Not very hard.
