  1. Metal roof rather than glass on the Cybertruck

    A metal roof is nice, but not needed, for RF communication. It's very easy to add a ground plane to an antenna where none exists (e.g. on top of a glass roof). It's called an artificial ground plane and there are various ways to accomplish it (google). You should honestly just choose the...
  2. Metal roof rather than glass on the Cybertruck

    You do realize, don't you, that metal roofs are made of thinner metal than other body panels to reduce weight, and that glass is actually stronger than a metal roof? If you are doing something to the CT that will cause the (incredibly strong) frame to flex to the extent that it could crack...
  3. What The Possible Texas Cybertruck Terafactory Looks Like Right Now

    It is WAYY bigger than 79 acres. I drove up there last weekend and drove around the perimeter to check it out. There are signs up that say the land for sale is "450 Acres +/-", but the map on Tesla Motors Club shows it as 1500 acres (including some small farms, so I guess they rolled up multiple...
  4. Cybertruck (Orders) Demand Would Take 3-4 Years Production to Fulfill Says Musk

    I ordered on launch day (RWD) and then another the next morning (tai-motor), and then when they switched production order, I changed my RWD to dual motor. Place #26k in line. I initially hated the design and thought there's no way I'll get one, but for a $100 refundable deposit, decided to make...
  5. Custom vanity license plates - have you ordered yours yet??

    I was gonna get this one, but now maybe it's a TERA? ?‍♂️
  6. Update: Cybertruck Will Keep Concept's Size, But Separate Smaller Cybertruck Likely!

    By the way, if there is a tricked out Baja edition, and it costs 80-90k, I'm saving up for that one.
  7. Update: Cybertruck Will Keep Concept's Size, But Separate Smaller Cybertruck Likely!

    Larger, please. And needs a lifted and chromed out Texas Edition.
  8. Do not like smaller, more level Cybertruck?

    3% smaller is fine for California, but I'm in Texas and need a version that's 12% larger.
  9. Side Hustles with Cybertruck?

    I am considering "True FSD" to mean that the steering wheel can be removed from my car, as Elon has suggested.
  10. Cybertruck Production Ramp Estimates

    I agree; my estimate is that 20-25% of current reservations are "legit". The other 75-80% of them will fall away. I made two reservations on launch night, and initially hated the truck but it's grown on me so much that I'll be buying one. My other reservation will xfer to a family member or be...
  11. Side Hustles with Cybertruck?

    I drove from SF to Austin a year ago in my Model S. 90% of the trip is flat, straight, open road in ultra rural areas with little to no traffic. I was probably on AP 95% of the time. It's not the same as complex, traffic-filled urban navigation (where the majority of Tesla drivers live today, I...
  12. Vinyl wrap

    I'm less worried about vandalism.. but I *really* wish that Tesla had not advertised this as a "bulletproof" exoskeleton on launch night. I live in Texas, and I'm sure people are going to love to test that out.
