Saw someone posted 6.5’ bed length on another thread. That would be very compelling.

Then I was sent this picture, which clearly shows it’s … less.

The unofficial specs someone posted said the CT has a 6ft bed.

That picture makes it look shorter than the R1T's. So less frunk, no gear tunnel and shorter bed. The cyberdumpster can't even hold trash which is the primary purpose of a dumpster.

I think it's just an optical illusion because looking at the vehicle makes you physically ill.

Even if it were an 8ft long bed, it's not user friendly. You can only access the bed from the back end and that is like sticking your arm into a shark's mouth with all those pointy parts.

If I tap it on the nose, will it roll over?

Maybe 6 feet measured from the top edge of the tailgate to the bottom edge at the front, which slopes forward…. Whatever you think about that I can tell you that the pictures configuration is NOT good for your bikes downtube.

Think about that tailgate being down and leaning over the corner to grab something near the end. You are 100% going to tear your scrode on that pointy edge.

Remember that there’s 5280 Tesla feet in a Tesla mile, you have to scale accordingly.

Nor the fork stanchions. But it's near the top of them at least. Will a cybertruck driver use the full travel of the fork?

And where does the spare go??

The commutative property proves that if you can't damage the Cybertruck's revolutionary stainless steel exterior, then it can't damage you.

That's just math.
