In my experience...
The lithium ion battery is usually charged at high amperage from zero to eighty percent capacity and then the charger switches to a lower voltage profile and it takes about the same amount of time to get from 80 percent to 100 percent. It's fast to 80 percent, then much...
Why not have everything run on air? It's very versatile.
Trains have used air to hold their brakes open since the 1880's.
Tractor trailers use air in the brakes and suspension.
Older military trucks use air to run the wipers.
If you can fill a large enough reservoir you can move just about...
I do not wish to do this to you, but...
In some other forums I use the name "Optic Delusion", because my father is an optician and as a youngster I received training to become an optician, but i never got into the family business because by that time the big box stores had monopolized the...
Maybe its the reflection of the lights on the other side of the bed, mixed with the reflection of those same lights off the floor of the bed.
But it still looks curved to me.
In the first video I posted (in post #7) at the 6:36 mark, right before he moves the camera away, there is an orange...
DAM SON! I WANT A TRIANGLE!
When Master Shake first saw the triangle, he didn't want anything to do with it.
But within minutes he completely changed his mind. Just like me.
Just like a lot of us.
Spoiler: The Triangle ends up taking over the world.
I don't want anything to do with the back seats. After giving a few friends and relatives a joyride I will almost definitely rip them out and build something useful in their place. You guys just don't get it. A truck carries things. Heavy things.

This thread deserved to be bumped back to the front page because there are a plethora of tiny details in these videos you can't get anywhere else.
The last video has a half decent low shot of the door openings and floor as you get in.
No one is even talking about the blade heating/cooling system...
It looks like the lack of driveshaft and exhaust could allow the floor height to be slightly lower than dinosaur juice pickups with the same ground clearance.. This may mean the effective climb-in height could be an inch or two lower than you are used to.
Or the floor height could be the same as...
I don't see the skateboard as completely eliminating space for a spare underneath. Have you seen CYBRTRK next to a Model 3? There's lots of room for batteries, and still plenty leftover for a spare.
I did see something about it's completely smooth underneath for "laminar air flow"- not to...
This also begs the question, Where's the spare tire?
Whoever publishes the first pics of the frunk and sail pillar compartments has scored a major coup.
I suspect it will be a very long time. These areas will undergo changes between now and....
CYBRTRK vs Airfoil, from YouTuber "Solving the Money Problem"
It's just about as aerodynamic as a vehicle can get, at least in this perspective.
Twitter User JustinWMartin14 plugged the CYBRTRK into an aerodynamic simulator.
Right at the top of the triangle is the most disruptive point. He...
As far as i know, the only pics of the frunk and sail pillar compartment that have been seen are from 18:30 of the launch event. Shown below.
Looks like the wiper fluid can is in the frunk, and the sail pillar compartment is a triangular black hole.
I'm willing to bet that because the seat is so...
Another thread indicates there will may be some kind of stopper in the tailgate to keep the plywood/drywall from sliding out the back, but at 57 inches wide, we also need something to stop it from sliding side-to-side...
