After 4 decades with combustion engines, we switched to Tesla. No turning back!
After my having almost exclusively driving private party used Toyota Corollas (including one new 90's Chevy Nova, which was essentially a Toyota Corolla) and my wife exclusively driving private party used Toyota Corollas, we've both moved over to Teslas. No turning back! That vaunted Corolla reliability? Looks like Tesla has that beat! The tire pressure meters look like they're not designed to fail. (Unlike the Corolla. You Corolla owners, lots of you know what I'm talking about.) No oil changes. No smogging the car. No going to gas stations, ever! The up-front price was a lot higher. (We always pay up front.) But the decreased aggravation is easily worth it! Long term, we're still going to save money. EDIT: Our Teslas are a 2020 Model 3 and a 2021 Model Y.
Yep, 12 years for me on 4th Tesla vehicle and will never willingly drive ICE vehicle again. Never, never going back! People hating EVs in generally have never been in one, driven one and are beyond stupid IMHO
Same here. I will never go back to gas. I charge for free at home while I sleep, can't do that with gas
Yep, we charge our two Tesla's off our solar powered roof complemented with two PW2's letting us operate as a microgrid for 8+ months of the year.
People who own EV's are just lazy
1. Complaining about gas prices.
2. Complete show offs.
3. Thinking they are the future.
4. Good luck finding charging stations and waiting for an hour an half for it to charge.
5. Terrible at the winter.
6 EV's are going down hill and nobody wants those garbage they are not the future period.
You can never trust online reactions, it's just a tiny, vocal minority that's making noise. 95% of viewers don't even comment at all on videos. IRL reactions shows the true opinions.
just like the comp package for Elon. I was pretty sure it will fail badly from all the negativity online
@@MrQuay03 Then u dont know how internet works. If somebody have nothing to say you don't say. negative sells more. And at last. "Where i got energy to comment all of it. Especially after hard work and other stuff in everyday life?! "
Yep most they do say negative things are just trolls anyways which I always wonder why people watch something they don’t even like and then go out of their way to comment on it as well.
@@CHITECHGUY self gratification, envy, lack self respect and respect towards others in short EGO
Especially with Tesla, now that 40% of the population are 🍑 hurt that he changed Twitter and doesn’t ban their opponents.
Some people have such sad lives that the only thing that makes them feel better is trying to diminish other people's happiness or accomplishments.
Some really don't want the planet NEEDLESSLY destroyed. 7:20 How did you get that 323 WHr/Mile - Downhill coasting?
👍 The Left’s Class Warfare game in full display. Anyone living a great life had an unfair advantage or cheated
@@WestCoastAce27 except them, of course.
Indeed! Every time Elon Musk tries to diminish other people's happiness or accomplishments, it just reminds everyone what a sad insecure little lefty snowflake Musk truly is. Musk is, after all, the living embodiment of the New Green Deal, so perhaps that drives his insatiable need to disrespect others and diminish their achievements? Who knows how a lefty like Musk rationalises his deplorable behavior, anyway?
Dude as a Tesla Uber driver I've had interactions from non-ev owners who try to educate me on the pros/cons of my car based on outdated headlines. Never for a second they asking questions. It's all about the infinite knowledge their televisions have blessed them with. Fortunately, they're a minority.
Traded my Model 3 and my F150 FX4 for a Cyberbeast and I’m absolutely thrilled with the truck. However the number of people who feel the need to express their disgust for it in public spaces is astonishing. Was driving my 8yo daughter around yesterday and two people gave me the finger. There seems to be some assumption that folks who buy the CT are only doing it for attention. I’m not. I only wanted the best EV truck on the market currently, and the CT performs for me better than either the R1T or the Lightning would.
Or that only greeny's buy EVs. That you can't be just a car guy and find them to be great cars.
@@scottgaree7667 its a remarkable vehicle on top of being highly efficient. Best of both worlds.
It's very sad to hear some people are expressing displeasure in such a disrespectful way, especially when your family is in view. It's quite odd, do you remember any other vehicle in sales history getting this type of response from the public, other than possibly the Ford Edsel? When Ford introduced the Edsel, there was a similar very divisive and challenging political environment at play. I wonder how we all could discuss the similarities of these events or just what we are currently experiencing without being so positional.
I think the public disrespect for anyone based on their personal decision is completely unacceptable. But I do have something to say as to why people feel the way they do towards the car and it’s part of something you said on this reply. You say “I wanted the best car on the market” and this is where most people go crazy.
Listen, if you want the coolest car on the market and also the want it to be a truck there is no denying that the cyber truck is that car and the best car on the market for you. But it is not the best car on the market period. It is not functional for most, it is poorly designed, and has too many reliability problems to meet that criteria. It is this believe that upsets most.
@@4huggiesi appreciate considered engagement. But that’s not what I said. I said I wanted the best EV truck. And it is by far the most useful EV truck available. So far I’ve hunted out of it 200 miles from the nearest supercharger, towed my 31’ airstream to campgrounds in central Idaho, hauled full sheets of plywood, today I brought home two mattresses, hauled rafts and kayaks to the river… sure seems useful as a truck to me.
As far as reliability, maybe there’s a question mark there, and while I’ll admit that tesla does suffer from fit and finish issues, their drivetrains are rock solid which is more than I can say for my 12 year experience with an F150. ICE trucks are continually becoming more complex to meet fuel standards and this 100% leads to reliability issues.
So, maybe the jury is out on the long term reliability on the CT, but after 6 years with a model 3, I’m willing to gamble.
As far as design? Please… based on what? Have you looked under the hood? Driven one? Experienced how they drive or feel? Withhold your judgement until you have first hand experience. As an engineer I’m extremely impressed by much of what they’ve done with the bones of this rig. Yeah, it’s got a few warts, but I see nothing show stopping.
I have to somewhat disagree about towing. I often tow a dual axel 16ft. flatbed trailer. I have a cabin in small town in Arizona about 70 miles from my house in Phoenix and well over 5000ft of climbing. Half of the route is a dirt road. It does this route really well. Sure it uses more energy. I do have to plug in when I get there but still the cost is way less than gas and the ride is amazing especially on the dirt road. My F-350 beats me up on the dirt but in the cybertruck it is almost like the road is paved. I hardley notice the trailer as well. It probably wouldn't be ideal for a longer route but it works great for me.
If you don't mind me asking, what do you haul on the trailer?
70 miles is a short trip. That proves nothing.
It proves the truck does what he needs it to. What’s he suppose to prove to an online troll. 😂
👍
@@patrickhornacek8593 He said the comment in the video on tow range was incorrect, and used his 70 mile trip as evidence, when that proves the opposite. If it needs to be recharged after a 70 mile tow, it is inadequate as a tow vehicle. Funny how inconvenient facts are "trolling" to cultists.
I seriously doubt that the haters have any experience with a Tesla other than seeing them on the street and reading biased reports online. It is similar to people that say they hate a particular food, having never tried it. It is irrational. I’ve had my Tesla Model X for almost 8 years, have over 98,000 miles on it, and still love it more than any car I’ve ever owned (I’m 68, so a lot of cars). It gives me joy every time I get in it. And, 90% of my friends, both young and old, now drive Teslas too, including some that were quite skeptical early on. I think anyone willing to give a Tesla a fair chance, say by renting one for a few days, will be convinced they are worthy cars, even if they still don’t buy one for whatever reason.
Yes, just like all of those haters who issued a second recall of the Cybertruck. Just because there have been two recalls in less than half of a year, it is clearly haters trying to undermine the brilliance of this instant Hall-of-Famer!
Majoriry of the negative energy are coming from folks who has not even drove an EV
I've had my Cybertruck for 4 months now. I love it. I get all kinds of people approaching to ask questions and take pictures no matter where I go, shopping centers, charging stations, campgrounds, and residential neighborhoods. The reactions are 99% positive. A few are neutral, only two were negative. Negative comments on the internet are nearly always from anonymous (i.e., cowardly) people. Nice to have met you at Muskegon.
I would hate that. It's annoying enough on a bike in my city, suddenly everyone thinks you're a spectacle for their simple entertainment - they want to touch the bike, interact with me, tell me their life story, etc... With a Cybertruck, I'd have to constantly remind the general public that I'm not a celebrity and I'm not here so you can take a photo with my car, I'm just going to the shop to buy new underwear because these ones are starting to get crusty.
@@FBI_Agent_69420 If you don't want to be a celebrity like that, then don't buy a Cybertruck lol. People only do that because they are not used to seeing cars like the Cybertruck.
If you had absolutely no clue what a Cybertruck was, and you saw one right next to you at a stop light, you can't tell me you wouldn't want to ask the driver what kind of car it is.
@@444thunderstr0ke nah, I wouldn't try to force an interaction with someone just because they have something that caught my attention lol, that's not normal behaviour. A lot of people are like that, but a lot of people are also annoying pricks.
It's like the kid with the mohawk, there's always that one fool who thinks the mohawk kid is here to entertain him, when in reality he's probably just going from Point A to Point B, to sniff some glue with his comrades and play with dog poop.
Honestly I would just look at a cyber truck and think "cool, a cyber truck, never saw one of those before", ponder what this might mean for my city and the local economy, and then get on with my own life, which is infinitely more interesting to me because I'm the main character in that one.
@@FBI_Agent_69420 Not reading all that lmao, but it seems like your main point is that you don't do that. Ok. Maybe not for you. But its the case for 99.9% of other people. That's how people are.
@@444thunderstr0ke not reading all that lmao
I have the Cyberbeast and it's literally the best thing ever. I love my Cyberbeast.
Hopefully I will have a dual motor CT by end of year.
Na, stalkless is awesome
Just placed my order, waiting on further instruction
@@alexp.6406 As a Cybertruck owner that's had one for 1 month, I'm used to it.
@DirtyTesla yeeah,all those people sayi g we need buttons needed to think about their screen touch smartphone 😂😂
Your channel is one of the best Tesla/car-tech channels because you come at it from a user POV. That's why you are a target for haters. It's too bad, but I guess it comes with your success.
I hope you can just skip the hate, and focus on the wide support you have. Thanks for all the effort you and your wife have put in on this.
Facts don't matter, do they? Ignore the facts, just focus on the dream, because the dream is all that matters. Reality is such a dull distraction from dreaming, it boggles the mind why anyone would bother with reality, doesn't it? Anyway, let's hold hands and sing camp songs about how beautiful the sunset on Mars is today!
I feel that you're doing a fine job with your channel. Keep going.
I have cyberbeast in Portland Oregon. Lots of love and a little hate. I’m a garbage man and love this truck. Will never get old I think. So fun to drive
I own a Dual CT, and I guarantee you everyone saying negative comments about the looks have never driven one. It's - AMAZING
Exactly. You can never trust online reactions, it's just a tiny, vocal minority that's making noise. 95% of viewers don't even comment at all on videos. IRL reactions shows the true opinions.
Please just ignore the Haters.
its better for your mental health
In this case of just owning something I agree while negitivlty can be good and toxicity never is... If he loves it and can afford it why not?
I just ask them if the love their kids. Or if they want to continue hurting them. Usually they either say they hate children or shut up.
@@wolfgangpreier9160 That's WILD 🤣😭
Ignoring people you disagree with is the perfect recipie for a healthy democracy! Why bother resolving anything if you can just run away from anything you don't like? People aren't allowed to hold any opinions which you personally don't approve of, right?
@@craigsimpson9561 Yes, Hating is NOT a personal opinion. It is just hate. Go away and hate together with your beer-buddies.
I disagree regarding Towing. CT won’t be good for LONG DISTANCE (200mi+) towing. Most of my towing is 10-30miles and I’m transporting rebar, lumber or a tractor. CT will be great for that.
100%, heavy long distance towing is the only real deficiency
I absolutely love it. I only haven’t yet taken my order because I’m so upside down on my model Y. As soon as I can I will buy one.
I'm so looking forward to getting mine. I reordered a little late because I wanted some of the bugs to be ironed out. As a 82 year old single woman and I just didn't want to be stranded anywhere.. I got it to maintain my driving independence and plan on paying for it by either renting it out or becoming part of the FSD Robotaxi business. I just refound your channel so I'm hoping to learn a whole lot! Thank you for starting this channel!
Please be careful! This plan sounds economically unwise to me. Cars get trashed when rented, and of course you know that robotaxi can’t be counted on to exist in the next 5 years. If you have to even think about how you are going to pay for this vehicle, it shouldn’t be considered. If I were to bet I’d say it will be the fastest-depreciating mass market car ever made. Not because of durability, but because of market dynamics. If you must have an electric car and money is a concern at all, a used model 3 is by far your best choice.
As Eleanor Roosevelt (I think) once said,
"Great people talk about ideas,
Average people talk about events, and
Small people talk about other people."
If I've got the attribution wrong, my apologies.
Can you recommend me a book?
True, Musk does spend all of his time on Twitter tweeting about other people, doesn't he? So sad that such a small and insecure man needs to take so many drugs during work hours before jumping on Twitter to diminish everyone he can ...
I watched your videos when I was thinking about a Tesla a year ago (April 2023) and was amazed. I bought and have been thrilled with my Model Y. It is the best car I have ever owned! The FSD make trips so easy! One of the greatest things is leaving home with a full charge every day - no worrying about stopping for gas or getting oil changes. It saves a huge amount of money while travelling. It costs 1/10th of the cost travelling on vacations, the only time I have to stop at super chargers. The exact trip in our Acura MDX cost us $178 while the Tesla Y cost $19.33 for a 420 mile trip. Unbelievable.
Hate getting into a cold car in winter? No problem with Tesla - you turn on climate control a few minutes early and it will be toasty. In the summer, it will be cooled.
Take a test drive or ask a Tesla driver about their car - most of us would love to show you how cool it is.
If you are here to complain because you don't like Musk or politics, I don't care. He can believe or say what he wants, like anyone else. Form opinions based on your own experience, not what ideologues say.
I went electric because I got fed up with dealing with 10 quarts oil changes every 3000 miles in my Ford Diesel. ALSO, my lawn mower took 15 gallons to fill it up so, hauling that much gas and spilling a bunch to get it in the tanks was just crazy. Had to refill every other time I mowed my 5 acres.
Went with a Mean Green 61" zero turn and can mow for 8 hours straight.
Those Michelin Tweels are interesting on those mowers.
The haters hate, they probably don't even watch your videos.
There are so many types of trucks: semis, dump trucks, ten wheelers, pickup trucks. Then there is the cybertruck.
How does the cybertruck compete with the semi market? I don't understand the point which you want to make, here... are you saying that the cybertruck is superior to the telsa semi or the tesla roaster, er I mean "roadster"? Perhaps you're emphasising that there is an over-abundance of competition in the existing truck market? If so, how does the vehicle which has been recalled twice this year compete against an established market?
Beast VIN came in on Friday! Can’t wait to get it! Drove my coworkers AWD. It was so awesome!
I LOVE towing with my cybertruck! The power is UNBELIEVABLE, and whisper quiet! It is especially great for boat launches in extract mode with wade mode on.
Granted, the range dropping to 150 miles from 100% really SUCKS, but that is the only downside IMHO. I’m hoping the range extender helps with that giving me at least 75 more miles to 225 total which makes it more practical.
No hate here. I get that people are entitled to their opinions, but for me it’s different and getting people outside their comfort zones. If you don’t like it, don’t buy it, but I do believe that most of it is jealously.
Exactly, I love Teslas but the cybertruck ooooffff definitely not my cup of tea, gives me old Prius vibes on the inside. I prefer the beautiful slick lines and design of the Model s lol
I think people have a visceral reaction that they don't understand and could not explain without a few therapy sessions. I think of it as being a lot like the child like joy that kids and Cybertruck fans get when we see one, except it triggers the other side of their amygala for probably arbitrary reasons.
It is this attitude that causes the hate. People make legitimate criticisms of the Cybertruck, and people like you claim that it is out of jealousy. No, it just is not a particularly good truck at doing truck stuff.
And ignorance
@TroySavary you're absolutely correct...so much of the hateful commentary comes as a reaction to the attitudes of a certain portion of the Tesla community...most definitely not the entire community, but some of the loudest voices have become truly obnoxious and cause an equally obnoxious reaction. Human nature is what it is, and online culture magnifies the negative and expands both the reach and the volume of the worst traits...
When a Cybertruck parked next to me i didn't talk to them about it.
That was my gift to them.
Not having 1 more person talk to them.
😂 personally I don't mind, I get it
Just goes to show that opportunity without accountability is a breading ground for irresponsibility. People will say things through their keyboard to someone they don't know or will never have to look in the eye that they would never even consider saying to their face. It might be one of the biggest downfalls of our society.
5 months of ownership here, loving the truck and 99% of interactions are positive. Can’t wait for FSD and 3D park assist, those will make it perfecto.
Eh, camp mode on tesla model y saved a lot of money for me. Unfortunately, i can’t do the same in cybertruck. Last winter I camped in Zion at freezing temp, so it’s hard to sleep in the tent on a cybertruck. In MY you just use AC with any temperature you want. Also, I’m not sure I want to mess with heater inside the cybertruck camp or so. Long distance towing is not the case for me. So if not a camping mode, I’d decide to purchase it.
Great video and comments. I own a MY and MX.
I have a retired liberal friend who used to work for the EPA. He currently drives a 2000 Saab- has just dropped in his third engine. He brags about the gas mileage- close to 40 and claims it is the best car ever built. He also drives with his windows down and is proud to never use A/C. Every time I bring up an EV he gets a frown on his face. Human nature can be quite irrational, even unexpectedly.
A funny CT comment. My adult son (used to work at Honda) and I were driving the other evening when we saw a CT in the exit in front of us. I asked him if he knew what it was…. “Pontiac Aztec?” “Oh no son! That is a Cybertruck”. and we both laughed hysterically. By the way we did get to see the side profile- wrapped in white- very very cool.
I am so glad to hear your CT comments. Once Tesla gets more of the software worked out, it will elevate from cool and awesome to outstanding…at least for EV adopters. In ten years the argument for ICE will be nonexistent. Reminds me of watching the movie “Lincoln” with Congress discussing the pros and cons of slavery. Ugh.
Chris, don’t sell yourself short! Love your content. These negative people making noise have no idea. I finally saw a Cybertruck live and in person for the first time. Now I want one more than ever! Thinking of trading in my 2020 model y. Keep up the great content!
It always has amazed me that people would put energy in hating a car or truck. I guess it’s fashionable among the luddites.
Ford had a recall of 222,000 F-150s for wiper problems last year. Not to mention, that 500,000 F-150 have just been recalled for transmission problems.
Thank you for this knowledge. This is why i read the comments lol
They also had a recall on the windshield of every full size pickup made in 2020. Poor bond between the paint and the urethane bead. Ever seen a windshield fly out in a crash? It's pretty horrific and if the occupants didn't have a seat belt on ...Yea, It's bad.
I don't get all the hate. This car is so amazing looking to me! I made a complete 180 about Tesla when I got a model Y. I loved the cybertruck since announcement though and I'm so excited to see it on the road more and more! Even in my red state, I have seen about 4 of them and they really do get a lot of attention! Wish I could test drive one!
2:11 I recently got a Tesla model Y about six months ago, and I think the hate comes from people who typically feel like the issue is being forced upon them by government mandates, and also a little bit of jealousy.
Yes!!! Why are you watching countless video of something you hate so much? I don't like BMW. Never watched a single video. I also don't go on ICE car videos and brag about not going to a gas station.
Not just Cybertruck but Tesla videos in general. I'm so tired of seeing ICE owners comment about how quickly they fill up. Dude!!! EV owners KNOW what they're getting. Some of us don't mind the trade-off for the amazing tech. Not to mention I charge 100% at home. Never needed to supercharge in 4 years.
They won't admit it. But something deep is going on if you have to go out of your way to leave hateful comments on something you don't even want. I'm not talking about negative comments about the truck's looks. I'm talking about personal attacks. Makes no sense.
Yeah, they brag how fast they can fill their tanks; Not impressed, when I can *skip* the trip to a gas station, and take *ten seconds* at home to plug in my EV to charge up while I sleep.
@@rsteeb Exactly!! I had to go to a gas station to fill my mom's ICE car up and it felt so weird. Man, I don't miss having to go there 2-3 times a week!
Amen. It's unreal the hate.
Just know that haters will always be haters. Just ignore them. I like your videos as they show me the real world with the Tesla product. You are the best!
Ignore everyone who you don't agree with or who make you uncomfortable with inconvenient facts, eh? Such wonderful life advice - demonise everyone you don't agree with, so you can feel better about yourself since "they" are less than you and obviously beneath your contempt, is that it? Sounds like you live in a real healthy democracy there!
I pick up my CyberBeast yesterday and i love it
Love the CT and your videos. Keep up the good work!
Chris, Appreciate your channel and reviews, road trips etc great entertainment, if I didn't like it I wouldn't watch it - it's all opinions in the end - thanks for sharing your real life experience, take care look after yourself.
About to schedule delivery. I’m excited about this thing!
I took it to a carwash the other day and i totalled it on accident.
Damn man your trolling game is great.😂😂😂😂
Yeah I have a buddy that straight up believes if I take mine to a carwash I will brick it. Tried to tell him it’s a bs story and had nothing to do with getting the car washed. But he believes what he wants to believe. For some reason it is so important for these people to believe their decision to stay with gasoline is the “right” decision. Like politics, it becomes black and white. No shades of gray…it’s right or wrong, good vs evil.
Do you even own a Cybertruck or did you straight up just fabricate this to make fun of the truck?
I think they are poking fun at a recent publicized incident. An owner went to a car wash and started an OTA while waiting. The OTA froze for 5 hours and he couldn’t move it. The haters contorted the story to make it sound like the car wash bricked / totaled the car.
Only thing I didn't like was the removal of the ramp... that was a huge selling point for me. People hate it just to hate it.
Yeah that thing was awesome! Now they offer an overpriced tiny little ramp that you need 2 of 😂
@@DirtyTesla awww.... thats crap! Any truck can use those crappy ramps. It would have been great to have it built in.
Bro ngl I forgot about the ramp! That WAS pretty cool. They should have given us that. I'm a guy that that rides ATVs and bikes a lot and would appreciate that.
@@444thunderstr0ke agreed... so many times I have used 2by4s to try and get some sort of ramp for furniture, bikes, atvs, lawn mower... ect. A nice built in ramp was SUCH a selling point to me.
I finally saw it in real life a couple weeks ago. It's legitimely does not look real. Like, it's defying existence by being on the road. And I think Franz came up with the look for exactly that reason. You don't need to drive engagement or have badging, when everyone does a double take and immediately has to know what the heck that thing was. And by the time they find out, they're positively invested and are almost guaranteed to have had a good experience before the media or what they've heard about Tesla from online has a chance to kick in and affect their opinion of the brand.
Thanks for the update. My wife and I just received our invite and place our order with delivery in Sept.
I agree with you on the comments. Glad 99% are positive and as to the negative ones, last time I checked it was my money that bought it🤓
Telling it like it is! More people should be so rational and level headed. We also have Teslas and will never go back to ICE, but more power to those who want to drive gas cars for whatever their personal preferences are. Do your own thing!
The four minute focus on the haters will only fuel them more. I’ve been “cancelled” three times and the best thing to do is just ignore them. It pisses them off the most.
I’m not a super huge fan of the truck but honestly you changed my point of view for sure, like this truck has stuff that is pretty sick and it’s not for everyone yknow. But it’s a nice truck for people who just want something nice and out there and that’s new. The best feature I think is definitely how you can use the battery when you have an outage that’s one of the coolest features I’ve seen, I’ll give them props for that 👏
Thanks -great video and sums it up perfectly.
Yes, the CT is still kind of ugly 😅 but I just want one. You mentioned that it’s not great for towing, but I actually disagree- it’s really GREAT for towing, FOR SHORTER DISTANCES which don’t exceed your range. The reduced range when towing is only a worry if you’re towing a long way.
Example- my son has a RWD Model Y and tows their 19’ boat all the time. He says it’s absolutely effortless, and tows dramatically better than his diesel 4WD, only caveat being range reduction whilst towing means it’s not ideal for LONG tow trips.
As for us- five years coming up with Tesla (M3P) and we couldn’t possibly be any happier. I have no plans to update, (even though the new one is even better.)
I think the cybertruck is really interesting. Isn't something I'd want to buy personally but I hope you enjoy yours! We did switch to a Model Y and we are really enjoying it! Just wish FSD updates would start to roll out again
Love my CT and my wife still thinks her 2022 Model Y is the best car she's ever driven.
Ignore the haters, i get thumbs downs and yelled at on the road from time to time. But anyone that comes up to me in the Walmart parking lot, the gas station (snacks!), etc, they are almost always blown away. At the very least, you can see them reconsidering their life choices.
I've given more rides to complete strangers in the last two months, than the rest of my life. And I'm very much a car guy!
My friend and I are Cybertruck owners and we have both experienced haters on the road flipping the bird. Luckily there are more people who like the truck. Odd thing is it is more motorcycle drivers then regular ICE trucks. We both love driving our truck. My truck towed a 21 ft bayliner from sea level to 8,000 ft 98 miles with 7% of battery left starting a 100 % charge.
Great job. Seeing 1 a day in SoCal.
My Model 3 just hit 4; expect to drive it at least 8 more… but if he puts steer by wire in all models in a few yrs, that plan could change.
I appreciate your videos and have learned alot from them. Thanks for doing them. I have a 22x, so even though I can get my CT Foundation now I'm going to wait for the price drop and FSD.
Thanks. And very smart, you'll love it!
When you realize the haters can be as young as 4 years old, your perspective over internet opinion really takes a hit.
Thanks for this video.
Love cybertruck, love your channel, never wil disrespect you or come on here to hate on something. You are blessed, I’m happy for you and I can’t wait for my cybertruck! I do wonder since I got the email for foundation and if I don’t get that and wait for the $80k option if I am going to be able to configure and hopefully get it somewhat quickly 😎
I'm a huge Tesla fan. I've had a model 3 and currently have a model Y performance. The CT is not for me. I just think they're hideously ugly. That said, I'm really glad you like yours! I will never understand the people that have to hate on the CT and Tesla in general. You don't like it? Don't get one. It's not that complicated. What I choose to buy doesn't affect other people.
I love your videos and especially your experiences with the CT! Don't listen to the haters and keep up the good work!
How long was it after you got your confirmation until delivery? I finally got my notice a couple weeks ago and curious what others' experiences have been and what I might be looking at.
Months lol but should be different for you, I bet you'll hear soon!
Love your content, Chris! Indeed, what other car/vehicle could you use for 6k miles and possibly break even if you even wanted to resell it? Ha, like you, if I get mine at some point, it will be my daily driver. Would love to have it for a long time.
Awesome video Chris
Angry people : you have a cyber truck ? The brightest thing about you is your shiny head lmao
Cyber truck owner : having the time of their life:)
great video, it is so nice to have someone who is not a shill just give their real experience with a EV
I totally don’t understand the hate. But I for one love your channel and appreciate what you do!
Cheers Chris
I enjoyed your take on the Cyber truck 👍🏻 I'm glad you are enjoying it and the negatives you mentioned like you stated you knew it wouldn't be available yet there really aren't that many negatives. People are interesting when you don't have to look at someone face to face and hide behind a keyboard it's easy to talk all this ugliness but when these same people see it in person they sing a different tune.
I'm an introvert so I would definitely not get the Cyber truck 😂😂 I enjoy talking about Tesla but always getting stopped yeah not my cup of tea. I took delivery of my refreshed M3 LR in March first EV. I absolutely love this car. I love the tech and minimalism they are fantastic. The car puts a smile on my face every time I get inside. I am a Tesla fan boy but like you I'm not naïve to the fact that Tesla is not perfect and I knew what I was getting myself into especially the lack of being able to talk to Tesla directly but I'm ok with that because overall the car is fantastic. Over three months in car runs great it's comfortable quiet no squeaks rattles or creaks. I enjoy your content.

I'm glad they started with Founders Edition, I don't have to beta test or deal with talking to people and I got a Model Y, which I love.
Great honest video! I’m an early reservation holder but waiting for non FS. I have so many questions as this will be my first EV!
I was approached to buy my FS when I got the invitation but was honest and told that individual I have no plans to flip it
Chris, I think I might’ve met you in Muskegon. I was the guy in the kilt the Highlander PS I’m enjoying watching your video. I’m the same way if you don’t wanna buy one don’t buy it but if you wanna learn more there a lot of stuff there willing to share what little knowledge we have.😊😊
I feel for you… I’ve had a CT foundation on order… but I’m gonna cancel because of my inability to let someone flip me off and me not hunting them down to talk about it….. getting too old for the nonsense… I appreciate you rising above !!! Peace
The Cybertruck is my DREAM vehicle! I’ll be able to afford it when it’s about 10+ years old 😅.
I started making RUclips videos for much the same reason. I had a ton of questions that I couldn't find the answers to sometimes. Then when I got my Nissan LEAF then Model S I received a lot of questions and I wanted to share the details that I couldn't find previously. We've now driven our S up to 140k miles and now we have a Model Y too. I was 37 years old when I bought my first electric car (Nissan LEAF) and I'll never go back to ICE if I can help it. I did have to purchase a gas truck while waiting for the Cybertruck to tow my RV. The RV I purchased because I was planning to have a Cybertruck. And now the Cybertruck doesn't appear to have very much towing range. [Sad Face.] I also get periodic hateful comments on my channel for EVs and I think the same thing...like why are you here watching these videos if you hate EVs so much?
I love it and want one, I went electric 2 years ago with a BYD dolphin, I would never go back to to ICE,
BYD Dolphin huh. How's it like owning one of those?
@@444thunderstr0ke it is a fault free bargain, with silent motoring and free charging from my solar roof, along with my 100% electric house, its the future
@@swedishchefdave49 Nice! I've always wanted to try one of those.
Your cybertruck experience is appreciated.
Yes. People are rude. And it’s a new type of vehicle that the bugs need working out.
Love the candid daily driver perspective. That’s really what it boils down to regardless of the weird cult followings both positive & negative lol.
Any advice for fixing one at home?
2 questions;
1. Does every version of CT come with the power share capability?
2. How much space does the back seats have compared with the model Y?
Is there locations in the US where there is no feed in tarrif when hooked to the grid?
Same, I bought a Tesla after driving a million different “gas” cars. There is no going back! I’m now on my second model 3 and absolutely love it! I feel sad whenever I need to get in any other car
What does it look like with graphics on high?
whats the name of that magsafe charger on your desk?
It's this one amzn.to/4bwgesq it's awesome I charge my galaxy buds on the base
Just hang on. You are doing good : )
Cool video bro 😎
I have 100k miles on my Model Y. Thinking cybertruck next because I drive on dirt and gravel roads a lot. I recently removed 5 5-gallon buckets of sand and gravel when I dropped the underbody panels. This was not the first time I'd cleaned it. You've had that issue on a model Y. How does it look like the dirt accumulation will be on the cybertruck?
I haven't had it long enough, but I'll check in a few months :)
Buying one is on my bucket list, but who knows if Tesla comes up with something better. The dual motor for $80K is in my price range.
Before electric vehicle options came out I was looking to buy or build an electric conversion car that would get me to town and back and the park and ride and back. So my requirements were a range of around 25 to 30 miles. Tesla's came out and I finally bought a first year model 3 in 2018. Wow, much better range and performance than what I was planning on before. I even take it on multi thousand mile road trips. Electrics are much more interesting and fun to me in many ways than my old gas cars. One problem is that I like to drive it too much. I've got 100K miles on it in 5 years.
Updates are rolling out to the “first rollout customers” for 12.4.2. You might have the update waiting for you.😊 thank you for the info you give on this channel.
YE-AH You tell 'em, Chris! [hehe]
At first I didn't really like the Cybertruck, much. About when I watched your video of taking delivery of yours is when I started liking them.
I never even really liked pick-ups much, although there are some that I kinda like how they look. But I prefer a covered bed and having to buy a cap separately just doesn't make much sense.
Loved your intro! Don’t worry about the hate comments. They are just jealous 😂
It seems like the efficiency numbers my model S shows me seems to just be for how much energy the motors use. It doesn't include A/C, FSD, dashcam usage. The reason I believe this is because it tells me my average is 294 kWh/mi. Yet my range is barely 180 miles on a full charge even though it states I can go 222 miles.
Thanks for all the videos! Since you’ve owned a model X and now a cybertruck, can you please do a comparison between the 2 for a family vehicle? Thank you! I live in Oakland County so we are neighbors.
Is the A pillar a blind spot on the CT
I turned down delivery of a Cybertruck and picked up a model X. Just didn't want to experience all the hype along with the first production issues. Maybe after a year or two.
I got my reservation up and we own 2 Teslas (3 and a Y), but we just can't justify the Cybertruck with the lower range. If the price and range matched the original, I would have already thrown my money at them.
We'll see how it goes in the next year, if the price goes down or the range goes (way) up. Spending $20k more (above the original estimate) and then another $16k to get an extension to still fall short of the original range promised, I just can't justify it.
It's jealousy, my brother. Just keep doing what you are doing and stay blessed
It’s the same for me, I don’t understand all the hate. Like move on and stop worrying about other peoples stuff. To all my fellow CT drivers, hang in there we will not let the haters win.
Chris, if i was to place a cyberbeast order today…what would be your guess on a rough delivery date. Tesla website says 2025 delivery and i know beast truck likely faster than dual motor delivery but just wanted to get your take. I sense it wouldn’t be 2025. I already have a 2019 Model S Raven (eventually will upgrade to S Plaid) and 2 Powerwalls so adding the battery to my home plus having a truck when needed is a huge factor.
Update - just ordered the beast today! 😂 Still curious what you think the delivery time will be. I mean I’ll get it when i get it but just curious what you think.
Personally I love the look of it. I don't get the hate at all. Lots of cars, crossovers, trucks that I don't like the looks of, or are very bland and boring but I don't go on social media to express my hate for it. People are so weird.
Thank you for speaking on this everyone hates it so bad no one did this when gas cars come out with issues just be happy for someone to have something cool people are awful nowadays
I dont think the CT by itself is stupid, but the "Foundation" version is such a crazy upsale for VERY little (and a lot missing)
My powershare setup is sick, you will like it.
Can't wait!
This was a necessary video. The online heat for this thing is out of control. The abuse is downright nasty and weird. When I'm out in-person I get nothing but interest and positive comments (especially with my Matrix wrap). Yes, there have been some issues, but that's not a big deal. I don't see people making hate videos out of the F-150 downshift from 6th to 1st at highway speeds recall of 568k vehicles. I think it might be an Elon hate thing, I don't know, but it isn't pleasant.
99% of the assholes on the internet wouldn't DARE be like that in person. They are a bunch of cyber-tough guys.
Thanks for making a great video and not some negative clickbait turd.
