Good job on the pros and cons. I completely agree. I hope all your suggestions are on the refresh. The dark gray wrap looks incredible. Keep updating us on this awesome ride.
Musk mentioned in the first Cybertruck intro that there was going to be an air compressor that doubles as the air supply for the air suspension. I guess they forgot about it like many other promises he made on the Cybertruck.
RIGHT ON DUDE!…keep up the good work. Now go find your Cyberbrothers some cool accessories like SS fenders, bumpers, sliders and skid plates. Cool inside stuff like trim to replace that white (sound to be dirty) trim.
Yeah the parking sensors and lack of radar..wish they kept it. Relying only on cameras causes a single point of failure. The cameras sometimes error when sunlight is shining directly on them as well as if it rains or are dirty.
Great honest review of your Cybertruck experience. Hopefully the negative reactions are short-lived once more start hitting the road! Thanks for sharing.
This was an unusually honest review, and I really appreciate it. FYI, re: the damage to the door, those stainless panels on the Cybertruck are actually just panels that are epoxied onto a cast steel subframe. I learned that last week.
People forgot how regular dealers mark up new cars when they first come out and everybody wants one. The foundation series is basically the dealer mark up for early access
I owned a LATE P/T Cruiser. Not because I liked the "retro" styling but because it was a 5-door hatchback with a very upright seating position and good visibility, was a 4-banger so cheap for my commute and with the seats folded could accommodate my two big dogs. AND because my cheap Asian econobox hatchback was written off in an accident (not my fault!) and the insurance wasn't enough for anything more. But it's funny - when the P/T Cruiser came out, there was a huge buzz and celebrities were driving them. And they were being "flipped" and dealers were marking them up outrageously. Remember? By 2008 they were old, and no one was interested. Fast fashion applied to CARS, which is WAAAAY more stupid than just fast fashion. And it was JUST styling ... the Cybertruck IS actually innovative.
@@blakeogeris2494 exactly, you’re not really saving much by waiting unless you plan on just buying the very basic version, no FSD, nice interior etc. you’re just saving around $5000 for the non limited edition version.
Thanks. Cannot afford one now, and wanted to know what this truck was about - without all the bias one way or the other. Excellent review! That was fast startup for a truck!
Wrap held up really well. I will be filming my update on the truck this week and will upload it shortly afterwards. Hoping for a Saturday or Sunday release 🤞🏻
Congrats on your new CT and starting a YT channel. I’m looking into starting my own channel around my purchase of a CT. If you have any advice I would love a message or a chat if you have the time.
The question I haven't heard answered.......... is the CT a great 40 to 60k truck?? because I see it as the only true buyers price range for real sale numbers. yours really looks great to me.... they need to come painted
If the CT was priced at $40-60k it would be the highest selling vehicle in all of the USA, guaranteed. I believe that once the foundation series is made an option even at $80k this will sell extremely well. Thank you for the kind words. I really love the look of mine
The only good news for most of us pre-order(s) is the double the pre order price is a no go for 90% of us. We would have been waiting forever to get one if they came out with the advertised price!!! @@Butter_EV
I used my Ram and now my CT to haul pallets of goods to customers as well as tow our travel trailer. I have been very pleased in the CTs performance handling these tasks. I do miss my payload on the Ram as well as the 8’ bed but the CT makes up for that with its steer by wire, 4 wheel turning, air suspension and FSD once that arrives
Great points! Hope Tesla will include these updates/changes. As for the powered tailgate. They could use the same electric actuators from the fronk in the rear.
Thank you for watching and commenting. I don’t understand why some simple features are missing. Most will get fixed via OTA updates but some hardware misses will have to wait for 3rd parties or 2nd gen CT 😞
Maybe the whole point of missing features is to have a 2nd and 3d gen. Why no garage openers on a $100,000 truck when Homelink worked great and not everyone wants myQ. Then where’s the built in trunk ramp? Why is the bed so narrow. Why only 5 seats when it’s so easy to make the front seats a bench?
Bro he complained about the tailgate, apparently forgetting that 99% of *trucks* dont have power tailgates. Also claimed towing was good without mentioning that the towing package is connected and made out of aluminim...
Hi, have you tried to charge your cyber truck while you are doing a towing or hauling job? Is it lots of hassle to detach your truck from the trailer when you are at the charge station? Thx for your time.
Biggest problem with towing in an EV is the lack of pull through charging stalls. Plus the very few that there are Tesla doesn’t show that info in the center screen 🤦🏻♂️ Every time I’ve towed with my trailer I either charge at the campsite or go to a SCer with pull through. I refuse to unhitch to charge 🤣
Hey Carlos 👋🏼 sorry for the late reply but I wanted to answer your question live during our podcast, which I did last night. So for me the foundation series is still worth the price since I was able to get the CT early and start my channel. Now if I never started my channel I would say that I would more than likely regret not waiting. I do think that the CT at the $70-80k price point is a great deal but $100k ??? Not so much. I hope that answered your question. Also go check out Episode 17 of my podcast to see us discuss this subject. Thanks
Great video. Bulletproof and indestructible body should be in the plus list. Hail proof body and glass. Better noise reduction. So many more should be mentioned
Took 60 days to go 4000 miles. If they unlocked the battery fir anouther $6000 then it would have only taken 30 days. All that time sitting at gas stations or waiting around for it to charge. All the while running a lithium battery to try and save the environment. Great job. I am proud
How much does the charging time and range affect your day to day, how long do you spend charging, (have you ever charged to 100%) how long can you go without recharging, how far can you drive on 100%
@@Butter_EV What is the SoC for the battery to keep a long lifespan? Also, have you considered adding this battery extender to increase the range for about 100 extra miles? I know this is optional and costs approx 16K$, but wonder if this is worth it.
Thank you for your review. Only part I can't agree with is the value for the foundation series. Even if FSD was still worth $12,000, which it probably was at the time you posted this video, $8,000 for a light bar that you still don't have and some decals is still excessive (imo). But the key is that you enjoy it and if you enjoy getting it that much sooner, then kudos and be happy.
Trust me I wish I wasn’t forced to pay $20k extra but I did and I have to live with it. I am extremely happy with the truck so far. Thanks for watching and commenting it really means a lot
Shoot I forgot about the spare tire. But yes most of these issues should be addressed via a OTA update but I still wanted to bring them up in a video. Thanks for the watch and comment
They have 2 million reservations. It’s going to take them 9 more years to produce all that. That’s why less people ordered the cars as they were waiting for the truck. But stock shot up yesterday on news lower priced evs will be produced by the end of this year or early 2025.
That’s what I’ve been using but I’d rather not have to carry that around and have to deal with batteries. I’m glad that you enjoyed the video and I appreciate your support
portable inflators work for tires but not numatic tools, some use cases require a air tank. One less thing to carry around, not bad to have the option since the systems in place on suspension.
@@TeslaSoCal True but useful, cheaper then battery operated nail guns and such. The same result can be had with a small air tank and a portable compressor. These compressors can only operate for a short duration so a tank is needed to store the air charge for longer sessions. I've seen a rivian used on youtube for this but there was some control issues, would need to be tested.
Interesting to see about a right hand drive will the wiper be on the driver's side. Still the software wait...how long? Seat comfort important. Visibility not stated? Wondering when range will increase? Due to battery upgrades.
I’m sure the wiper will be moved to the right side for right handed CTs. In regard to the software if you mean FSD then yes we are still waiting. Elon did mention a June release but that’s also Elon time 😒 Visibility is good as you can imagine with the huge windshield but the A pillars do obstruct some of your view but nothing worth noting IMO. I am really hoping that as time passes that they will optimize the 4680 batteries to increase range and efficiency 🤞🏼
I agree about the price, it’s up there alright however the early adopters pay the premium for being first to own and drive. If it were me, I’d use the truck for promotions and events and claw back some of the price premium before the novelty wears off. In time Cybertruck will be as common as an iPhone, back in 2007 when the iPhone was launched the only people I knew who could afford to own one were Dr’s & businessmen. Fast forward til now and kids in elementary school all have iPhones.
I'm very skeptical of getting this truck due to it being a first gen vehicle. I'll wait happily for a huge refinement in the biggest issues. Still cool but trucks are suppose to be all round utility vehicles so the fact the cubertruck is missing small things with issues is just stuff they got to work out over time.
I got the Foundation Series order, I'm conflicted between this and the Model S Plaid. Leaning towards the CT. You're on the AWD cybertruck right? Have you driven the new Model S, that feels more like a luxury car worth 100K I think but the CT is so much cooler
Yes I have. I think it all depends on what you are looking for. The Model S plaid is insanely fast and has a few more features, ie 2 front screens and FSD. But if you want a larger vehicle like a truck as well as utilize the utility of a truck then the CT is the way to go.
Haven't heard if it has camp mode 🤔 That would be something i would love in a vehicle like this. Even better if it allowed space to open into the front of it from the back bed.
Not sure what you do for work and so this may not matter, for you. Can you carry a 4X8 sheet of plywood in the back? Fixing up an old estate and I need to get supplies AND clean up and get off to the Airport to pick up family and or friends.
@@Butter_EV of course a licensed Electrician would do the work. I am learning that this "deal" went away due to the complication, expensive upcharge cost by EE, and permitting by the City.
I keep air compressors in all my vehicles so I don't see not having a built in one a problem. It's probably better because it's one less thing to break down.
Totally I always have an air compressor with me but when buying a $100k truck I don't see why they didn't add one. Especially when your competition has it
@@Butter_EV there seems to be a compressor onboard for the suspension system. Is the answer money? Ate they being cheap about it? It's definitely not outside of their scope of innovation. It's simply bothersome they didn't add it or make it an option.
That’s why I haven’t pulled the trigger yet, I wonder if yellow would look good. In my mind it does but I’m hesitant. I think I might just need to do it 🤷🏻♂️ Thanks for the kind words 🙏🏼
@@Psalm-yg6yi I mean, to be fair, with the back seats folded down, it has a similar cargo capacity to a truck. A couple of months ago, I moved to Mexico (with two cats), and I packed everything into my car (and a medium-sized cargo box on a trailer hitch I had installed) All while getting about 3 times the fuel efficiency of a pick-up truck.
@@Psalm-yg6yi Also, I think it's a pretty fair comparison when the vast majority of trips taken in pickup trucks are for the same purpose as I use my Prius: to transport a single human 5-30 miles, possibly carrying groceries or something like that

As a el camino owner that is exactly why a want one. Have wired steering and acceleration will be a game changer from driving without power steering

Exactly except you're actually getting added features, AP FSD various accessories.

That’s what I’ve been using but I’d rather not have to carry that around and have to deal with batteries. I’m glad that you enjoyed the video and I appreciate your support
portable inflators work for tires but not numatic tools, some use cases require a air tank. One less thing to carry around, not bad to have the option since the systems in place on suspension.
@@robgronsky4466 interesting, maybe in the future if the economics make sense. most people aren't using their cybertruck to operate pneumatic tools.
@@TeslaSoCal True but useful, cheaper then battery operated nail guns and such. The same result can be had with a small air tank and a portable compressor. These compressors can only operate for a short duration so a tank is needed to store the air charge for longer sessions. I've seen a rivian used on youtube for this but there was some control issues, would need to be tested.
Interesting to see about a right hand drive will the wiper be on the driver's side.
Still the software wait...how long? Seat comfort important. Visibility not stated? Wondering when range will increase? Due to battery upgrades.
I’m sure the wiper will be moved to the right side for right handed CTs. In regard to the software if you mean FSD then yes we are still waiting. Elon did mention a June release but that’s also Elon time 😒 Visibility is good as you can imagine with the huge windshield but the A pillars do obstruct some of your view but nothing worth noting IMO. I am really hoping that as time passes that they will optimize the 4680 batteries to increase range and efficiency 🤞🏼
Congratulations on the truck
Thank you 🙏🏼
Whats all the creaking when you turn the wheel?
The tires rubbing on the asphalt
Precise and honest. Thank you
Glad you enjoy it 🙏🏼
will you buy it again?
Yes 💯 I love the truck
I agree about the price, it’s up there alright however the early adopters pay the premium for being first to own and drive. If it were me, I’d use the truck for promotions and events and claw back some of the price premium before the novelty wears off. In time Cybertruck will be as common as an iPhone, back in 2007 when the iPhone was launched the only people I knew who could afford to own one were Dr’s & businessmen. Fast forward til now and kids in elementary school all have iPhones.
You are 💯 correct. The pricing on the CT will come down and I wouldn’t be surprised if they made a Tacoma sized version as well
@@Butter_EV A smaller CT would be really good for South America, Africa and Europe. Areas where full sized pickups are rare.
I'm very skeptical of getting this truck due to it being a first gen vehicle. I'll wait happily for a huge refinement in the biggest issues. Still cool but trucks are suppose to be all round utility vehicles so the fact the cubertruck is missing small things with issues is just stuff they got to work out over time.
Waiting is not the worst idea tbh. The truck is great already but it will get much better in time
I got the Foundation Series order, I'm conflicted between this and the Model S Plaid. Leaning towards the CT. You're on the AWD cybertruck right? Have you driven the new Model S, that feels more like a luxury car worth 100K I think but the CT is so much cooler
Yes I have. I think it all depends on what you are looking for. The Model S plaid is insanely fast and has a few more features, ie 2 front screens and FSD. But if you want a larger vehicle like a truck as well as utilize the utility of a truck then the CT is the way to go.
Haven't heard if it has camp mode 🤔 That would be something i would love in a vehicle like this. Even better if it allowed space to open into the front of it from the back bed.
They have released Tent Mode since I filmed this video but I do wish that the back window would lower 🤷🏻♂️
@Butter_EV yeah that would be fantastic. It's a no brainer , camp mode was one of the big draw cards for me when buying the model 3 😁
when fully charged, what mileage will you get?
CT states 318 miles but in my 5 months of ownership its more like 300ish
Nice honest review 👍🏻 Wow, u got a lot of comments on this! 😮😂
Thanks 🙏🏼
The FSD is only $8000 now on a regular cybertruck order
Yes it is 🤦🏻♂️
Good review
Thank you 🙏🏼
Not sure what you do for work and so this may not matter, for you.
Can you carry a 4X8 sheet of plywood in the back?
Fixing up an old estate and I need to get supplies AND clean up and get off to the Airport to pick up family and or friends.
4x8 sheets will definitely fit in the bed of the CT when the tailgate is lowered
@@Butter_EV With the tailgate left down. With a Suburban I can close everything.
Power share and universal wall chargers. Don’t they come with the foundation series?
Yes, but you need to get an electrician to install it for you
@@Butter_EV of course a licensed Electrician would do the work. I am learning that this "deal" went away due to the complication, expensive upcharge cost by EE, and permitting by the City.
👏I subscribed because of this video
I appreciate it 🙏🏼
I think more battery will be released just like they offered it now for model 3? But you have to pay more I think
I believe that once they fine tune the new 4680s it’ll naturally give the truck more range
I believe that once they fine tune the 4680s it’ll unlock more range
Great info thanks
I’m glad you liked the video. I appreciate you watching and commenting
I’m glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for watching and commeting
Good review but what’s the monthly payment on this.
All depends on your interest rate and how much you put down
Not being able to reach in the bed of the truck? Is the ride height of the truck at its lowest point?
Ride height was in entry. Which is the lowest setting
I I’m not worried because eventually I’ll get a cybertrunk around 3 years and will most likely be improved from now.
There will definitely be improvements in 3yrs
Honestly, I learned from owning an early Model 3, it'll take Tesla 2-3 years to workout the kinks. I'll wait till then.
You are right. It's definitely like a beta test
How much did the wrap cost?
Mike's Tint Shop in Orange sponsored my truck but it would normally cost around $4k
Ima tesla nerd...
But yes, say it, you got a point!
📐
I keep air compressors in all my vehicles so I don't see not having a built in one a problem. It's probably better because it's one less thing to break down.
Totally I always have an air compressor with me but when buying a $100k truck I don't see why they didn't add one. Especially when your competition has it
@@Butter_EV there seems to be a compressor onboard for the suspension system.
Is the answer money? Ate they being cheap about it? It's definitely not outside of their scope of innovation. It's simply bothersome they didn't add it or make it an option.
There are 2 scratches on the right side door, who did that??
👀
How you think yellow brake calipers would look with that wrap I love that metallic wrap lol
That’s why I haven’t pulled the trigger yet, I wonder if yellow would look good. In my mind it does but I’m hesitant. I think I might just need to do it 🤷🏻♂️ Thanks for the kind words 🙏🏼
lol "great turning radius"
- proceeds to turn in a circle with a radius of about 50% greater than my Prius :P
🤣
Compares a Prious to a Truck. 😂😂😂😂
@@Psalm-yg6yi I mean, to be fair, with the back seats folded down, it has a similar cargo capacity to a truck. A couple of months ago, I moved to Mexico (with two cats), and I packed everything into my car (and a medium-sized cargo box on a trailer hitch I had installed)
All while getting about 3 times the fuel efficiency of a pick-up truck.
@@Psalm-yg6yi Also, I think it's a pretty fair comparison when the vast majority of trips taken in pickup trucks are for the same purpose as I use my Prius: to transport a single human 5-30 miles, possibly carrying groceries or something like that
