I’m not watching a click bait-y video. Where is the written review?
He likes the truck for towing. He likes the driving experience. He does not like the hate and fingers. Mirrors suck for towing. Difficult to load bed when hitched up. Sucks to carry around garage door opener. Doesn't have FSD. Disappointed Tesla didn't put rear view where the mirror is. No pull-through info when bringing up chargers on the screen. Overall, it's an amazing vehicle.

And that's the LTDW version.

Given that, I'll watch the video to support his objectivity.

I watched it on Youtube to ensure he gets the watch count or however that works. However, I DID fast forward through some of it. I mean, once you tell me you are upset you don't have FSD yet, I don't need a 3 minute discord on it.

If "Needing to carry a garage door opener" is a headline negative....I think the Cybertruck is doing pretty well!

1. Difficult to load bed when hitched up.
isn’t this the same with most every truck?
2. Disappointed Tesla didn't put rear view [display] where the mirror is.
Me too, but I am still thinking about how to fix the problem. Maybe by the time I have resolved the various issues Tesla will have their own solution.

1. His specific complaint was that while he was 6'2", he couldn't reach over the side of the truck near the front.
2. My buddy removed the mirror in his Ram and put in a digital display and then a camera facing back from outside somewhere. It wouldn't be that difficult and Tesla could just use the video from the rear camera that is already in place. They could probably offer a mirror shaped monitor for that video feed and Homelink for $300 and would have a near 100% take rate.

I have a 23 Lightning with upgraded tow mirrors and a trailer camera from Ford. Ford's software is brutal and I would love to have rear wheel steering and experience steer by wire. But the mirrors and trailer camera feed are must haves for me

Remove your rear view mirror, enjoy the unobstructed view. You get used to the on screen rear view in about 2 days and won't miss it. I was in the same camp as you originally, upset the rear view wasn't a screen and now I don't miss it.

Remember when Elon said NO side view mirrors??
Ever driven a Ferrari?? I have. I owned a deTomaso. Zero rear view anything.
