    RIP: Model S and X production to end in Q2 2026!

    The freedom and value of OWNING your own Cybercab is that YOU OWN IT! If you own it, that means YOU get to use (or not use) it whenever you want! Sure, you may have to wait for it to drop off a 'fare'(if it already has one) before it comes to YOU, but that's likely not going to be a big deal...

    Tires against police spike strips, the Cybertruck achilles heel! [police chase]

    Grapler!!! Best anti-running product I have ever seen used!! You actually get to 'catch' the car AND driver and it's safer than doing a 'PIT'... Even safer than breaking off the chase as most criminals won't slow down until they are SURE there's no cops following them and since too many...

    RIP: Model S and X production to end in Q2 2026!

    By 2035, IF cybercabs are going well AND if you can 'buy' one yourself, then it will be the end of MOST cars driven by humans... I see where we could 'own' a Cybercab (or a few!), have them running around and giving rides to people to 'earn' money (to pay for the CC, charging, maintenance...

    Cybertruck's Ultimate Companion: Urander Rack & PANO Tent

    I'm putting the bed rack with windows and 'door' on the back (what others used to call a 'camper shell')... I would LOVE to be able to do this (take it off easily by 'raising' it up in the garage)!! I'm not sure it can be taken off 'whole' or not though, I think it's quite a bit heavier than...

    Is ASS dead for the CT?!?!

    You're kidding me, right? All those 'concept' vehicles at all the 'other' car shows and not ONE of them has been built with all the features they show off... When companies 'announce' and/or 'show' a vehicle they WANT to build and have IDEAS for them, that doesn't translate into actual...

    Connection Failed. Check your internet connection - Issue

    Yeah, we've been having the same problem in both the CT and MY... Keeps giving a "Navigating without connection" message when first starting out... Can take up to 10 minutes or more before it 'connects' again using the LTE in the vehicle (really wish it was 5G, but I know LTE is fine for what...

    Voice control, Grok not responding

    We were getting the same thing on our CT and it's got a Starlink Mini in it... So I thought maybe it was Starlink not working properly (it also said "Navigating without connectivity" even though it was connected). So, I unplugged Starlink, it went to LTE (like it should) but still wouldn't work...

    FSD 14.1.7 - Is there a way to tell it to BACK IN to a driveway instead of going in head first?

    Hmmm... Well, twice now I have backed it in 'manually' to the driveway, but it still wants to pull in front first... I'll try it a couple more times, but it doesn't seem to matter from a driveway... At WORK when I back into a space (all the time) it DID pull up and back in, but that's in a...

    FSD 14 day one experience - issue backing at supercharger (stops too far away to plug in)?

    Ours was too, but somewhere I read that if you change to 'sport' mode (in Dynamics) it quits hitting the line almost completely and only hits the reflectors every once in a while... But 'comfort' mode DOES hit them a LOT more for some reason...

    FSD 14.1.7 - Is there a way to tell it to BACK IN to a driveway instead of going in head first?

    FSD 14.1.7 - Is there a way to tell it to BACK IN to a driveway instead of going in head first? We have our charger outside the garage (or should I call it the 'storage space') and we normally 'back in' so the cable for the charger is closest to the garage (we use it to charge our CT and M-YLR...

    FSD 14 day one experience - issue backing at supercharger (stops too far away to plug in)?

    That's good to know... Haven't used a SC since getting FSD 14 so it will be interesting... In the past month or so, on the trips we've been on, I have been parking at them myself... I did notice that it is NOT 'riding the line' on the freeway anymore and that's a plus!

    FSD 14 day one experience - issue backing at supercharger (stops too far away to plug in)?

    I have always had that problem... Seems it likes to 'hug' the left side of the parking space which means the cable from the SuperCharger is just a couple of inches short... I usually just 'repark' (if letting it park) and back up about 6 inches and it's fine... Or, if I am parking, when it shows...

    Mad Max is the FSD Mode I Finally Needed

    Of course the first day I have FSD 14 installed and want to try out 'Mad Max' mode, it decides to RAIN ALL DAY?? Great... Don't think I want to 'test' it out in the rain... But at least the other features work... I do miss being able to adjust speed quickly with the right scroll wheel though...

    Frunk sharp corner solution. No more head bangers!

    yeah, I hit my head a few times... luckily no cut or bleeding though... But I don't see how they will prevent me from hitting it again! BUT they would certainly 'soften the blow'...

    Using enclosed Urander cap as a camper / no tent

    Why not just buy yourself a small 'room' sized air conditioner, that way the 'cold' doesn't get heated up by moving from the car cabin all the way to the back of the truck... Some air conditioners you can even put OUTSIDE the truck and just put a big 'hose' (like a dryer uses) directly into the...

    Tesla recalls Cybertrucks - front parking lights may be too bright (potential vehicles affected: 63,619)

    And why should we care about a specific number? The only number I really care about is how many *I* own... If you want to get into 'recall' numbers, then watch out... Because that Ram 2500 has 13 PAGES of recalls (depending on year of course) with fun things like "Talegate may open...

    I think it may also have the 'fix' for the headlights that some people think are too bright...

    Dangerous UI bug found

    You think mirror tilting is a CRITICAL button? Wow... What did we all do before tilting mirrors and back up cameras... No wonder we're such skilled drivers, we had to do it all the HARD way... You know, by asking our least favorite child to get out and help guide us... hehe... JK!! Personally...

    Can you please explain virtual power plant?

    Actually it's QUITE true! Just this month alone California 'tapped into' over 100,000 home battery/solar systems from VPPs to create 535 MW of power. According to the utilities this is comparable to the output of a medium sized LNG electric plant... Even allowing for the facts that VPPs are...

    Tire wear at 7000 miles

    As long as YOU didn't damage it... Should be, yes... But in any case you need to get it fixed or you will be buying one extra tire all the time...
