So periodically I think of driving situations that I wonder how FSD will handle. Like a stationary car parked on the curb that suddenly opens the drivers door just as CT is approaching. Or a minivan opening a driver side sliding door. Or a car parked parallel but facing the other direction...

Alright. I just spent the last 2 days driving over multiple mountain passes. It’s always fun to be zooming up a pass and come to two 18 wheelers. One in the slow lane and one trying desperately to pass in the passing lane. It made me think how jealous all the truck drivers are going to be when...

February 15, 2021 Keep Your Rivian, We’ll Have This Safari-Inspired Alpha Jax EV Alpha is a new-ish ev company based in Southern California. They haven’t produced a car you can buy yet, but they do have a few concepts that look pretty sweet. We’re particularly stoked on the new one, the Jax...

OK, I get that Australia has a lot of wide-open spaces with great distances between "services". And that while there is some of that here in the US, it's much rarer to have the same kind of remoteness. That being said, I like watching Ronny Dahl from Australia regarding normal off-roading...

So reading this site today, I've been seeing ads for Mattracks. I was curious so went to look. Mattracks | Truck & SUV Tracks There are a variety of sizes and configurations for all sorts of vehicles. Now I'm guessing these are not road legal. And while it isn't horribly difficult to...

Ok. I just finished a 5 hour drive in unfamiliar territory, in the dark, with blinding sheets of rain coming down, and a fair amount of truck traffic kicking up even more water, resulting in multiple other vehicles ending up in the ditch. I’m exhausted. One thing I noticed though is that there...

So in various threads, there have been ideas tossed around about the new steering wheel on the MS and MX. And there has been talk of the possibility of the steering wheel being set up as drive-by-wire instead of a mechanical linkage. Various reasons have been given. I like the idea that it...

The CyberQuad looks to be getting more and more competition in the fun activities and vehicle space. I'd really like to get some details on the Quad (especially price) when we hear about the final specs of the CT.

Once my kids are a little older this might be a fun family activity. Drive out into the wilds with the CT and then ride together with Grunt and Runts. Volcon Introduces The Kid-Friendly Runt Electric Motorbike Feb 05, 2021 at 12:29pm ET By: Dustin Wheelen For all the little runts in your...

So here is an example of a guy running a snowplow business using a MY.

So I just found a new kind of winter tire. I was watching a video of a Tesla sliding down a hill in Glasgow. Was going to make a smart-aleck remark about traction control. But then I thought, "Wouldn't it be nice to have retractable studs so you could engage them in this kind of case for extra...

OK, I admit that I hadn't been thinking the price of FSD all the way through the lifecycle. Then I was listening on Now You Know where Zac and Jesse were talking about it and now I have some questions. To set up for this you might want to watch this week's Tesla Time News from the 24:20 mark...

Curious though. Based on this Electrek article from 2017 Tesla already uses 8 cameras. So what is the change that Elon is describing?

Recently I've been seeing some accessories that people have for their current Tesla vehicles. One that looks interesting is a pivot for the UI screen. I am hoping that the CT will get a whole lot more possible accessories than any of the other Tesla vehicles. Being a truck that can be used in...

So I was just watching some YouTube videos of an offroader in Australia who was traveling through the outback. My initial thought was that the trek would be awesome in a CyberTruck someday if there were adequate charging along the way at some point. I'm guessing the Australian outback will take...

So I was looking at the Teslarati site and an advert came up for a hovercraft! I've always wanted to try out a hovercraft and they seem like they would be fun to ride if one had access to enough open land. But whenever I see a video of one they seem to be inordinately LOUD! What's that? Did you...

OK, just saw the title of this article on teslarati. Tesla's perfomance on Google in 2020: What did people want to know? (teslarati.com) My first thought that they were going to mention all the people that have started naming their baby Tesla. There are many babies named after other cars. Has...

Anyone have awesome suggestions for trails or locations they want to take their CT to visit? Either for camping or overlanding. There are of course the big national parks etc. But a friend of mine was riding his motorcycle in the backwoods of Japan and took some pictures of a few ghost...
