  • I had the great pleasure to interview Jon Rettinger to get his initial thoughts and review on the highly controversial Tesla CyberTruck. Jon has driven almost every EV ever made and currently owns the Rivian R1T. This knowledge of the EV space gives Jon credibility in the automotive industry. In this video we cover all things CyberTruck and ultimately get Jon's answer to: Rivian R1T or CyberTruck?

    I’m on the side that loves it , and I love that some people don’t like it, either way it gets people talking about it, so much free advertising for Tesla. I would wrap it just like this one and drive it with a smirk on my face thinking about those that hate it, or think it’s “ ugly” ..😄😏😏

    That wrap looks absolutely sick on the cybertruck. Cybertruck is so much different than any other vehicle on the road that’s why I really like it. I just wish it had little more range. I’d definitely get extender pack when it becomes available

    It seems like CT is a bit less comfy and harder to live with in this 1st gen iteration, especially for those of us living in urban areas. Am considering waiting for the refreshed project Juniper Model Y instead for a bit more comfort and reliability (repair shops won't scratch their heads or see $$$) for my family and a bit less drama.

      @ronin7645 4 місяці тому

      ​@Butter_EV - That "rust" isn't from the stainless steel. It's called rail dust which is iron shreds that settles on cars. The iron oxidizes and rusts. The truck itself is not rusting. Only the iron dust on the surface. It's easily rubbed off using a cleaning product. So to overview, no, the truck doesn't rust. The iron dust that collects on the surface rusts which can be rubbed off.

    I totally disagree that the Rivian seats are more comfortable than the Tesla or any other manufacturer. Had a Rivian for about a year and the seats were horrible. The seat has bolstering on the seat cushion that you actually sit on, not comfortable! Also the accelerator and steering is too heavy.
