"how to squat your Cybertruck"?

Answer: Don't.

(yes, I'm talking about the fad, not loading unloading ?)

This is awesome thanks.. I will be loading and unloading my bike and this is a game changer. They need to add this as a loading mode for all of us.

Yeah, it never says how you get it out of the mode ?‍

Service manual talks about deflate from Service menu. Right after that it talks about removing bits from rear right wheel to expose air suspension service port and pumping up to 261 psi Nitrogen.

Deflate is part of a diagnosis for the air suspension. Not supposed to be a mode to make a low rider. Guessing doing that will f thing up down the road.

It's probably due the amount of suspension travel and the possibility of breaking something if you hit too big a bump.

A couple days ago I found that I can totally deflate my air suspension on my X and drop it like a low rider.

Was very scary lol I didn't know if I would be able to get it back up. I wonder if CT can do that. I did get it up though ?

I'm glad someone finally answered me! Thx lol

When you exit service mode she fills back up. (On the X)

Hopefully a feature to come to select in park only. Could easily drive my golf cart up, with 23” tires, without ramps.

It doesn’t in the truck. I had to drive it a short distance to get it to level. Wish someone said this before I did it in my garage. I have a big dip from the driveway to the street and I was worried about dragging the tailgate. Luckily it worked out.
When you are in the squat the tailgate (open) is 25” above the ground. Normal is 30” in entry mode.
This is highly useful for getting a 10ft boat I have into the truckbed.

I do wonder if this will mess anything up later, like other have said. I don’t have the need right now, entry does me just fine.

Glad to hear.....and the question didn't include 'The Red Pill or The Blue Pill?'

How long is a short distance: 10', 50', 100' ...?
Did you have to exit the Service Mode or just drive away?
I might try to lower the rear if no damage to the truck in any way. TIA.

I think there is a place for a CYBERTINNIE
I can see a 'Shock Proof' Stainless Steel version.....hitting it with a Hammer Head Shark won't 'Rock The Boat Baby!

I hope Tesla adds this "squat" mode to the menu for simplicity. Excellent for loading/unloading, or spreading gravel and such. Just limit speed to like 5mph, so someone could be driving really slow while you were shoveling in the back.

This would be an AMAZING feature to get a snowmobile in the bed. Much easier than scaling a 3ft foot ramp into a F250...
