    Cybertruck side steps installed

    Mongo invited me to look a little closer at your pic to see that there no longer is a nut in there. You couldn't get a bolt to go in--did the nut come out when you were attempting to insert a bolt? Did it look like the other mounting point from the get go?

    Cybertruck side steps installed

    The threads were cut and likely not chased at the factory. It is pretty normal for chips, debris, paint overspray to stay or find its way into a threaded holes durring manufacturing. Chase as in tap. Don't quote me here but I encountered two type of threads--a pair at the rear points that were...

    Cybertruck side steps installed

    Anyone have thoughts on that messed up threading? I'm going to make an SC appointment and see if they can do anything. RUExperienced? Yes, chased the threads on all of the mounting bosses, most of them were fouled, presumeably with paint. Quite doubtfull Tesla messed up your threads. One...

    How many full size CT tires can fit in the bed?

    Yes, a set of four 20" cyber wheels with mounted winter tires fit in the vault but I could not close the tonneau.

    Very dangerous critical routing failure, full FSD on chill, turned into oncoming traffic on highway 101 near Sequim WA

    No doubt or speculation here. During my April 3+ week road trip out and back to Phoenix, I intervened during 3 similar FSD events. Part of being an early adopter and FSD copilot and the last thing I thought about was memorializing an event on video. I wouldn't have been able to make the trip...

    Non-Sponsored Running Board Reviews?

    Purchased and installed RealWheels EV stainless with satin finish in June, am very satisfied and would purchase again. Swapped out supplied fasteners for stainless bolts and hd washers. Current ad pricing. Prudent for installer to first chase the threads of the truck mounting bosses with a tap...

    Cybertruck Airbag Issue: Unexpected Deployment and Injury—Any Similar Experiences?

    No how do we have this conversation in a constructive manner? That seems to be the difficult part. Alright. It is all the drama. You have about a single paragraph of information worth sharing but what you did shared doesn’t make a lot of sense nor is it entirely consistent. Tesla says it is...

    Cybertruck Airbag Issue: Unexpected Deployment and Injury—Any Similar Experiences?

    I believe being tboned at 19mph (“less than 20”) is pretty serious and could /would/should initiate deployment of side air curtains. What damage did the Mazda sustain and did its front air bags deploy? The visible body damage to your truck isn’t just a ding and there is certainly potential for...
