  1. Cybertruck design engineer spilling secrets?

    Either way, why buy a CT for $100k when they will be available a whole lot less in a few months? I don't think that they will sell for $80k a year from now.
  2. Have power sharing between v3 Tesla Universal Wall Connector (NACS+J1772) and NACS wall connector, AMA

    Same situation, same question. My plan is to run them at 40A off of one 50A breaker and make them power share
  3. Rivian vs Cybertruck vs Lightning! Comparison & Recommendation by Out of Spec Kyle

    With the shortest range, CT is a hard sell right now. The tech is very neat but not enough to overlook the small battery. Definitely something for everyone.
  4. Cybertruck Highway Range Test by Out Of Spec

    Ditto. Rivian fits my use case better as I don't need a huge bed, I like the gear tunnel, my PTC works, and I like the smaller size better. With the impending access to Tesla SC, my R1T will be perfect. Now, if 2 years from now Tesla increases the battery on the CT, I will revisit the issue.
  5. New Electric Tonneau Replacement installed -- no difference from original

    The PTC fix was supposed to arrive mid summer and basically showed up in December. So add a few months to all tentative release dates
  6. Cybertruck Highway Range Test by Out Of Spec

    Actually battery is smaller on CT by 12 KWh. It's less aerodynamic and bigger. Tires are bigger (35" vs 34"). It's frankly fairly efficient considering the above. It just needs a bigger battery.
  7. Cybertruck Highway Range Test by Out Of Spec

    Exactly. Issue is battery pack is too small. Seems that 4680 still have a ways to go
  8. Need more range for skiing

    Rule of thumb: climbing 1000' of elevation burns an additional 10 miles of range
  9. Ultimate RAN Stations Thread List (Wiki) -- locations, reviews, quirks, tips, etc.

    Very nice. I like TMC forum approach where we discuss new RAN in their own thread. The title follows a format and changes as SC goes through stages (permit, construction, live). See here: https://teslamotorsclub.com/tmc/forums/california-supercharger-locations.148/
  10. Cybertruck Highway Range Test by Out Of Spec

    On a road trip to Sedona, I averaged 2.0 driving 80-85 on freeway and normally in town. Truck was loaded with stuff and people. Drove in Conserve on the freeway. Quad, AT tires.
  11. Cybertruck Highway Range Test by Out Of Spec

    What's really funny is that folks on Twitter were expecting 2.7+ 2 months ago...
  12. Cybertruck Highway Range Test by Out Of Spec

    R1T gets 2.1-2.2 miles per KWh at 70 on AT tires.
  13. Cybertruck Highway Range Test by Out Of Spec

    Battery is 135KWh in Rivian, tires are smaller (34 vs 35) and aero is better, hence the higher range. On top of that, charging curve on CT isn't good.
  14. Cybertruck Highway Range Test by Out Of Spec

    Smaller battery, worse aero, bigger wheels. Result was entirely predictable. It's actually better than I thought. I guessed 240 miles.
  15. Why I traded my R1T

    I own EVs for their ease of use, performance, lower CO2 emissions and as a bonus I love the idea of not funding middle east theocracies. Now I don't tow so easier to live without an ICE vehicle.
  16. What do you want addressed in the next OTA update?

    YouTube, SMS. Allowing YouTube on back screen while driving on a Bluetooth headset
  17. R1T DM Large Pack: 308.3 mile range. Cybertruck Dual Motor: 178.5 mile range

    Bigger tires, bigger car, worse CX, smaller battery. Range can only be worse than R1T.
  18. Rivian R1T v Cybertruck Charging Curve Comparison

    If a cell thermal issue, as it seems to be, charging at 800V isn't gonna solve the issue.
