It should be known that when you get a Tesla you set up the app on your phone and it becomes the key. You don't really need to carry or use the card (except as a backup). With the app, you just walk up to the car and drive it, and walk away when you're done and it locks itself. One of my favorite features that doesn't get enough press.

Not sure you understood how the steering works. It is steer-by-wire and the main point is to dynamically adapt the steering angle with speed, and yes it needs some training, as for driving a manual transmission if you only know automatic ones. Then you can easily take tight turns without having to make lots of turns of the steering wheel, and you have precise driving at high speed while limiting the risk of a sudden movement causing an accident. It will also allow to use the steering wheel to play without the wheels turning, but that's an other story...

I finally saw one of these in person a few days ago getting on a freeway with me. It looked way better in person than I was imagining. When I first saw the design I thought it didn't make sense and wasn't for me, but actually seeing it in person it looks aggressive in a good way, like it "means business"; coincidentally I was reminded of Corvettes because of the elongated, slanting glass (I once owned a C4).

The "point" is to fight climate change, I know that in the US it is politics but for the rest of the world it is just geophysics. It means zero CO2 emission cars, so no more ICE cars. And of course there are all the other advantages of EVs : more comfort, no vibration, performances, a "full tank" every morning without having to go to a gas station, the pre-conditioning of the carbine, the incredible efficiency (kW/mile) compared to an ICE car, low maintenance, etc. Of course it is far far better to be able to charge at home, but for a developed country having plugs where cars are parked (eg during nights) does not seams to be a big challenge, especially compared to the threat (and cost) of climate warming. Regarding the "all on the screen" approach, I guess it is a generation issue, I love my smartphone and I would not want to go back to a flip Nokia or a BlackBerry. And there are so many things that take advantage of a large screen, eg the navigation, the rear cameras, the infotainment, the configuration, etc. Regarding the steel, I think the point is the strength, so I guess people who use this truck for work won't mind the aesthetic scratches, and people who use it as a SUV will probably warp the truck. Anyway, as a European I do not understand why anybody would buy a "truck" (ICE or electric) for something else than heavy work, so I understand the durability choice of heavy steel. For most people, an electric sedan is probably the better choice, at least for people who value efficiency and affordability. I drive a Tesla model 3, and even with not so high incomes I bought it cash. For most people expansive cars mean more being a slave (to the bank and/or dealer) rather than the promised freedom. Anyway, thanks for your video.

EVs and cold weather don't mix well. But, let's talk endurance. Per Tesla, "...the Cybertruck can tow up to 11,000 pounds and has an estimated driving range of up to 340 miles." The key work is "and" in the sentence. When under load that range drops significantly, and yes while the same is true for gas/diesel it is not near the same. I will put my 12 year old gasser up against the Tesla towing an RV through the mountains in 20 degrees, or hauling construction material in the heat of summer in Texas with AC blasting. At the end of the day, when the LOW Bat indicator shows 5% on the good ole Cyber truck and iPhone while driving the long road in the Yukon, I highly suggest the next call is 911 and pack plenty of blankets unless you are depending upon the batteries spontaneously igniting to keep the driver and occupants warm.

Unless you ignore all the NAV warnings and make zero effort to plan your route, you will be just fine. Now, if I was towing 11,000 pounds through the mountains at 20 degrees on a regular basis, I’d definitely buy a nice F350 SuperDuty over a Cybertruck.
