Driving the Tesla Cybertruck: A Bold Experiment

[@Art_and_Logic]

This is one of the best EV channels I've subscribed to.

[@thenetworkarchitectchannel]

Well done candid review. High quality content. Thanks.

[@CallasEV]

I appreciate that! Thank you for your support.

[@e-care-books9867]

Hi, Callas.That was really cool in the video around timestamp 28 seconds when those birds flew overhead. Like something from a cool movie.

[@TeslaElonSpaceXFan]

Tesla Cybertruck ❤❤

[@jasonholemusic]

Another great review - nice work 👍

[@CallasEV]

Thank you so much!

[@markplott4820]

Calas EV - you can enable FASTER charging on the Cybertruck by using the NAV on Autopilot pre-heating mode , this optimizes the Cybertruck for FASTER charging @ the Fastest TESLA superchargers. you also get more RANGE if you LOWER the body to its Lowest setting. and ONLY charge @ LOW state of Charge , combined w/ NAV on Autopilot. this selects the BEST Supercharger based on your TOTAL range remaining & availability of Supercharger stalls and it uses a Predictive Algorithm for other Vehicles headed to Superchargers in your area.

I'm not a fan of the standard stainless steel but wrapped in black or white looked surprisingly sharp

[@PaulSmith-tn4yu]

Most people don't realize that what they find good looking is what they are used to looking at, a world where trucks shaped like a cybertruck were the norm, the boxy trucks we have today would be ugly. Traditional OEMs are a bunch of cowards making the same thing every year and spending billions to convince you to buy it. If I needed a new truck today I would already own a cybertruck, but I don't.

[@TurdFergusen]

also marketing influences people way more than they realize

[@willaerley7140]

I’m waiting til they work the kinks out.

[@ralanham76]

Yes, in psychology. What people typically find attractive is what they see the most of or the average of what they see. It's ironic that people complain that all the cars look the same, but never buy anything that looks different

[@sudeeptaghosh]

I just came from a CT drive on FSD ..it was not intervention free but it drove me .. I m ecstatic 🤯🤯🫶🫶

[@LaJuanHughes]

What kinks?​@@willaerley7140

[@markplott4820]

CalasEV - the purpose of the Tesla Squricle is to enable Single hand turning of the Cybertruck, which is Enabled by the Stear by Wire system & the Rear steering system. you can Steer by turning the Squricle less than 180* for FULL lock to lock Truns. at LOW speeds its Incredibly agile , at freeway speeds only slight turn is needed for BIG changes.

[@deej628]

Steer*

[@portlandcurry]

really great videos 🎉

[@CallasEV]

Thank you ! 😄

[@KJ-8000]

Fantastic and detailed review! This deserves more views! Thanks

[@CallasEV]

Much appreciated! :)

[@markplott4820]

CalasEV - you can pop up a LIVE REAR camera feed Directly on the Drivers Portion of screen or you can slide it over for a LARGER view on the MAIN Display , you can call up the REAR Display while Driving to MONTOR both the side Cameras & the REAR camera at the same time , by minimizing the MAP/Navigation. as usual when you Backup the REAR camera is activated & when you indicate a turn , the side cameras are activated.

[@ChicagoTechGuy]

As a foundation series owner, I think it’s a very beautiful truck in my opinion, it’s bold and different, which are the main reasons why I purchased one! Nice video! I have the AWD 340 mile range Cybertruck, I certainly get around that mileage, not sure why yours was low, there are many factors, no wheel covers in your rental either which is a huge impact to range

[@USNEM]

Don't forget cheap build all over.

[@tv-ld3wv]

​@@USNEM I drove the new refresh model 3 and I can say it's a German car "compete with €60K German cars"

[@mikeg9b]

"Tesla’s Cybertruck was the third best-selling electric vehicle in the United States in the third quarter, beating out every other EV not made by Tesla." (TechCrunch)

[@mrdsn189]

I am very thankful for all your informative and helpful videos!

[@CallasEV]

Thank you!!

[@BrianSFischer]

I'm eight days into awning, a Cybertruck and so far it's a kick to drive and pulls like a mule!

[@LaJuanHughes]

People aren't ready.

[@dallasdrew2390]

Great video!! Thanks

[@CallasEV]

And thank you for watching!

[@markplott4820]

CalasEV - the Cybertruck comes STANDARD w/ Large AT tires, which is great for ALL round performance. IF you do NOT intend to off road , then you can buy Downsized wheels & Street tires , which improve the RANGE. you can fit 4x off road tires in the BED , for when you reach off road destination.

[@LaJuanHughes]

Or the all season tires

[@andreavenaa]

Weird to not see any comment on how it is the only autonomous truck. Had Thanksgiving with family that lives an hour away and FSD worked extremely well.

[@omniconcepts_7275]

A good honest review. 💯

[@CallasEV]

Thanks for watching!

[@omniconcepts_7275]

@ you are welcome.

[@mowcowbell]

The Cybertruck is 18.6 ft long, the standard garage in the US is 20 ft deep. Should fit with a bit of space at each end. Your test garage must not be 20 ft deep.

[@ralanham76]

Also it's smaller than most trucks

[@sudeeptaghosh]

It fits great in my garage

[@ralanham76]

I like the LIVE on the adapter section 🤣

[@CallasEV]

Haha thanks! 😁

[@KennethYoung-p1w]

Thanks for the analysis! A bit off-topic, but I wanted to ask: My OKX wallet holds some USDT, and I have the seed phrase. (alarm fetch churn bridge exercise tape speak race clerk couch crater letter). How can I transfer them to Binance?

[@barryw9473]

cybertruck can charge at CCS 1 station with a longer CCS1 to J3400 adapter made by A2Z.

[@deplorablechump8758]

If you can overcome the look, you will be amazed by the CT comfort and capabilities.

[@andriy_stashenko]

Fun fact. It's amazing.

[@andriy_stashenko]

What it is this city?

[@Artiztik15]

I think cabin & acceleration noise is just the model you are testing… my Cybertruck is quite and no acceleration noise 😊

[@CanonicGames]

We need more Rivian content!!!

[@ddmitch1]

Has anyone seen a Cybertruck (non-Foundation Series) on Tesla's Inventory list? Does this mean every CT is being immediately sold and is never sitting at a Tesla sales center?

[@DCGreenZone]

I'll say brave, very brave. Can I put a utility bed on one, a decent size camper body, anything at all?

[@LaJuanHughes]

There is a camper coming. There are racks and could do a lumber rack . With the space there is a a)c guy who with all the space got rid of his service truck . And it cost him less than 6 cents to charge it . He has two now. His channel is soaring video.

[@DCGreenZone]

@LaJuanHughes Of course, really safe too. 4 in France, 4 in Toronto and 3 students in Piedmont recently. Never.

[@Resist4]

Let's be clear this truck does not have an exoskeleton. Tesla ditched that idea a while ago and used a stainless steel external design with the strength being in the steel frame under it. The range is really disappointing and it doesn't have a dedicated place for a spare tire, which every truck needs. You said this truck uses a lower 48 volt system. This is not lower voltage, it's higher voltage. Other vehicles use 12 volts.

[@junehanzawa5165]

We won't see you next time?

[@barryw9473]

I do not think battery extender will ever be offered.

[@willaerley7140]

How’s the stereo? That’s how I drown out my M3 creakiness.

[@monaezytwo6513]

The audio system on the Cybertruck is fantastic.

[@g600f700]

I like your comment, you don't like the design, look somewhere. No need to bash it and trash talk, makes you look like a sour hater and a dictator.

[@markplott4820]

CalasEV - most Customers are NOT going to use Tesla Supercharger for DAILY charging. most Customers will charge @ home overnight on 240v LEVEL 2 , and it will cost LESS than $2 FULLY CHARGED. assuming you have a dedicated 240v plug & Super off peak Electric service. you can FIRE your Electric company and buy your Energy from the LOWEST cost Provider. (out of state). IF you have SOLAR & Powerwall , then your Charging is completely FREE. but , even w/ Powerwall ONLY the price is Reduced , as Powerwall will charge @ Super off peak ONLY.

[@kelviskelvis7140]

Very well thought out review. Lorena I agree with you, the CT is polarizing and I think it was built for an audience of one man. I did buy a pick up truck this year it was an EV that better suited me. The CT offered no appeal to my needs and taste. Over all the CT was a general disappointment once I got a chance to try it out.

[@markplott4820]

CalasEV - ChadEmo is no longer supported in North America, NISSAN is not making any NEW Vehicles w/ ChadEmo plugs & EA & other chargers do NOT support ChadEmo plugs standard.

[@guccisasha]

u missed the new ccs1 to nacs adapter, i got one and it works fine. from a2z. overall lame video. i get consistently over 300 miles on a single charge driving highway. the visibility is amazing plus the fsd and self parking is leaps ahead of any competitions. for reference i own the Rivian r1s and ford lightning too.

[@darrellhay]

"Some people love the futuristic aesthetic".....OK does anyone here feel that way? To me it looks like a very rich 12 year old boy with Asperger's designed it and had it built. Oh wait.

[@guy-iw2qh]

I think it looks awesome

[@TurdFergusen]

thats a you problem… look inward and stop watching The View

[@Kwisss]

@@TurdFergusen It's his opinion respect it. Everyone can have their own opinion about it.

[@zonemaster23]

I think it looks fantastic. But I also think the F-117 was the sexiest plane ever built.

[@TurdFergusen]

@@Kwisss i have opinions too, and i shared them. who dis?

[@Yanquetino]

Better you than me, Lorena. NO interest whatsoever. You couldn't pay me enough for one. If I needed an EV pickup (which I don't), I'd much rather opt for an F-150 Lightning, a Silverado EV, or an R1T. But I can tell you on this holiday that I am… thankful for your personable, enthusiastic, effervescent reviews. You always put a smile on my face. And I loved seeing Calla. ¡Qué disfrutes del feriado hoy!

[@CallasEV]

I hope you have a great holiday and I am thankful for your support!!! 💚

[@didiermejia780]

ct is so lame. it could have a great truck but unfortunately it prioritizes form over function. maybe if Elon leaves Tesla and he CT can be redesigned to be practical.

[@CarlosAmaya-nb6ps]

I dont like this thing, nice video.

[@CallasEV]

Thanks!

[@xhilaJ]

first

[@CallasEV]

🙌

[@E_Stew]

I actually saw one driving on a street...It's even uglier looking at it. 🤢🤮

[@willaerley7140]

I’ve seen it on the road. Kinda cool in a weird way.

[@DavidNunezPNW]

It's so ugly lol

[@abblepc]

So no mention of FSD? Do better research, as you missed many features that you also failed to mention.
