And that is why CT gets four wheel steering.And nineteen of that twenty percent will end their useable life without a scratch in the bed.
Most pickup's are luxury cars with a bed that's just big enough to carry your lipstick.
I assume that's basically vinyl wrap and from what I've read that only lasts a few years.Ha ha ha ha.
WTF?
Only another 6,500?
I guess if someone is going to spend 70-100k
for that ugly ass truck, what's another 6500?
I'm guessing it's because of the bed cover. A mirror couldn't see through that.I'm surprised that's allowed. Like, a rearview mirror is just a cost for the cabin. It's not like sideview mirrors where going to cameras could improve aerodynamics and fuel efficiency
Hopefully so pickup drivers can actually park their land barges in one parking spot.There was a pickup that had 4 wheel steering years back, I forget who offered it. I only ever saw one on the road.
The question is why bother with it? Added complexity and cost for what benefit?
I'm staying in downtown San Antonio right now, I'll be happy to send you a picture of all the pretty trucks taking up two spots in the garage, many of them rentals (because you know someone might question your manhood if they see you driving a rental car).I have to question the logic of buying a huge vehicle if you live in a place where maneuvering it is an obstacle.
it’s going to grow on people. Elon wasn’t kidding when he said it looks straight out of sci-fi movie.
I live in the south, trucks are extremely popular around here. I often drive by $75k homes with a $90k truck in the driveway.I'm guessing it's because of the bed cover. A mirror couldn't see through that.

After the crash test video I want to know what it'll do in an accident. In the video the aft tires turned so the butt would've swung out into traffic. Those wheels should be locked out when going 35.

Whoa, that’s a lot of overlooked stuff for a company that I was assured doesn’t overlook things.
Whoa that's a lot of passive aggressive shit talking for a guy who linked to an article about tire fade that was based on YT click bait.Whoa, that’s a lot of overlooked stuff for a company that I was assured doesn’t overlook things.
Keep on coping with being wrong brother. It’s okay, we all are sometimes.Whoa that's a lot of passive aggressive shit talking for a guy who linked to an article about tire fade that was based on YT click bait.
This coming from a guy who believes YT click bait and Twitter posts.......got it.Keep on coping with being wrong brother. It’s okay, we all are sometimes.
Your own article had the Plaid braking 100 ft longer. Also you left out all the bits where they talked about the brakes sucking.This coming from a guy who believes YT click bait and Twitter posts.......got it.
Come on guys. I think both of you can agree on the Cybertruck being a terrible vehicle. As can everyone. It's something you two share common ground on. Embrace your similarities, not your differences.This coming from a guy who believes YT click bait and Twitter posts.......got it.
I don't know if it's terrible. I've never driven one, sat in one, or even seen one. Why would I judge something before I've gotten the chance to experience it IRL?Come on guys.

It might eclipse M3 in that aspect xdI wonder if they can harness the power of Cybertruck hate like they did in Monsters Inc...you just KNOW that if you get one, you're going to get daily comments about how ugly people think it is LOL

Deep down inside you know. You know.I don't know if it's terrible. I've never driven one, sat in one, or even seen one. Why would I judge something before I've gotten the chance to experience it IRL?
Nothing wrong with four doors but everything is wrong with crossovers.I get comments every time I take my Mustang out and most of them are not positive.
Somehow this fucking thing gets a pass but god forbid you drive a Mustang powered by electricity and has.....gasp....4 doors.
I know it's about as bad as an R8. Cooling issues, bearing issues, and don't get me started on that interior. I've never driven one, sat in one, or even seen one but I just know how bad the R8 is........Deep down inside you know. You know.
Electric motors should provide a ton of throttling ability since the torque is proportional to the amperage. Probably an issue with the swing/mapping of the throttle pedal rather than the motor itself.Some good discussion in the nested comments:

From what I can tell:
1. These were the RC units, not final production
2. No recovery points to attach to (guessing the finals will have this)
3. Wrong tires for the conditions
4. Tires weren't deflated
5. Electric motor provides instant power, making it difficult to ease into a roll (I'd imagine they'll have a creep/crawl mode in a software update)
6. No traction aids (traction tracks etc.)
7. More difficult to do gear-shift rocking of forward & reverse (gear shift is a touchscreen on the inside rooftop of the windshield)
8. Really have with a low center-of-gravity (6,000 to just below 7,000 pounds, depending on how it's configured, plus the weight of the human bodies inside)
The officially listed max ground clearance in Extract Mode is 17.44", which is pretty cool for getting un-stuck in deep conditions, but this was snow & ice, with no chains on the tires or anything.
