How to Squat your Cybertruck (using Deflate suspension settings) -- for loading motorcycle / ATV, washing bed out, etc.

FYI you should not do this. Inflating the springs from empty should not be done when the truck is sitting all the way down on the bump stops. There’s a risk for damage when doing this

I would agree. I could imagine if you tried to load heavy items or vehicles in the bed with the bags deflated you could potentially mess it up. IDK though. Tesla should just come up with a mode that allows this instead. Especially to prevent damage.

Thank you for that another feature would have never thought about. We almost need to take a course on CT

When I tested it I just had to go into service and click rear over to something that said normal (I just dont recall the exact wording) and they inflated back to normal without driving.

It would be good if they created a shortcut for loading (for me its a golf cart) in the bed...

I was able to reinflate without moving the truck, wonder about the "damage" if just squatting there and not moving?

I was interested in this to dump a load of gravel but after all the considerations with bump stops and linkage angles this seems unwise. I bet you are not even supposed to deflate unless the truck is jacked up. Unfortunate.

You need a degree in rocket science to figure this out
