My takeaways and questions having looked closely the video above frame by frame.

1. The bottom of the vehicle is incredibly smooth. I know there was talk about it being armored to protect the battery but wow....That will really help areas in the rust belt!! (4:23)

2. There is a rear view mirror (as required by law) but it appears to be in an interesting spot on the windshield. it also appears to be angular in design (5:17)

3. There is something interesting going on with the A-Pillar. Top portion looks to just be a covering that is spliced to match with the headliner. but not sure what the lower design is...(5:17 also)

4. Charging port appears to be drivers side rear only :52, 3:55)

5. I dont see any front connections for a plow (0:30, 4:22)

6. I have questions as to what these markings are in the vault :31)

7. Dash material appears that it may have been updated from launch night :14)

I was disappointed by the full segment. Only 7 minutes long and no new information.

I think at the rear right side of the bed is a small door to access the electrical connection. I also think the air connections are at the rear left in the bed, but I do not have any proof, I just have this vague memory... maybe the early access article?

That may have been Tesla's request. You want to drive it, you can only ask questions we have given answers to.

lol, why did they televise the passcode to the elevator.

 

[Eye of Elon]

This is why cable TV is dead. Jay's YouTube channel is so much better.

Ya, honestly Jay hadn’t been briefed on specs or just forgot. All the convo was about basic stuff like ‘it’s bullet proof’, but nothing cool like the electric and pneumatic power sources, air suspension, etc

One question that occurred to me: it’s cool that CT fits in the Boring tunnel, but could you hitch a trailer to CT for underground cargo transport? Limitation would be turn angle, couldn’t exceed a certain °. We could get Uhaul renters and mid-size transport off surface streets and loaded into cyber trailers, free up some lanes.

For everyone worried about whether it'll fit in your garage, you'll be glad to hear that he's designing its size with that in mind -- "it's gotta fit in a normal garage."

The size is not changing ....the Jay Leno 5% comment was made in January.
Elon’s Tweet of 3% was in April.
Elon Tweeted earlier this week that he can’t make it smaller and that the Cybertruck will remain the same size.
I’m actually happy about this because the Cybertruck should be a FULL size pickup...

The Cybertruck looks even better to me in this video when seeing it in motion and in natural outdoor lighting. That stainless steel just pops!

Anyone notice he says 5% size reduction vs 3%? This was shot a while back before he tweeted about a 3% reduction so I assume that's more accurate than his earlier 5% estimate.

No change in size. It’s staying big

Nice! Look at that view from inside with the all glass roof, it's beautiful.

And impressive strength shown by the vault cover. Elon is a big guy - about 6'2" and 200+ pounds.

Yeah. Concur. Of all the "new" stuff I had hoped to glean from the Jay Leon show, the apparent strength of the tonneau cover was the highlight to me. Impressive! But I was bummed by the TV show itself. Call me a whiner...thirty minutes of commercials in a one-hour show, interrupted by other car stuff. Okay, okay, that's TV production. I had hoped Jay would really get into some of the nitty-gritty, but he and Sandy have different agendas. Can't wait until Sandy Monroe gets his hands on a CYBRTRK in two years. Then we'll learn something. Oh.....I was also impressed by the glass roof. From the outside, I thought it would be more claustrophobic.

Camp mode on the Model Y, at least, keeps the AC or Heat on to maintain whatever temperature you set and will remain that way till it hits a predetermined level of battery charge. Dog mode is similar but not the same. Plus, with camp mode, you get a nice fire on the display!

Okay, I had heard of camp mode but thought it was a future enhancement. Sweet!

Since the 3% tweet, he said that they were going to leave it the size of the prototype.
