Thank you chris for the fantastic interview with Cory. I’m still in shock in the wake of Cory’s departure from Munro after such a long tenure. At the start of covid I stumbled across Munro live and the show along with Cory & Sandy’s humour and straight talking really helped me get through really tough times. Seeing the dream team part ways has been shocking for me. However good luck to Sandy & Cory in what ever they do. I really hope Cory continues to inform and entertain us all on innovation and engineering. Munro live won’t be the same with him. Long live Batman & Robin!
The Rivian vs Cyber truck --- Is like comparing an SUV to a minivan. The Cyber Truck will have more of a minivan type feel, where the cab is shifted towards the front of the vehicle and has a long front glass like a minivan. So it should at least feel larger, even if the foot room is comparable.
How long before Tesla scoops up Cory? Whatever you do, wherever you end up, your futur is bright my friend! Now who will police Sandy when he goes off brand?
@@Jethr001 I’m sure it would, but Tesla doesn’t need Munro as much as Munro might need Tesla and Cory being a family man might lead him to making a decision he feels is best for his family. I can see Corey explaining that to Sandy. 🤷♂️
One comment on Munro LIVE. It isn't Munro & Associates first UA-cam channel. There is an existing earlier first channel called "MunroAssoc". It was just a different format to Munro LIVE and quite formal and with only a few videos. Some of Munro's analysis of BMW's i3 is featured on it.
1:14:45 same! The removal of the 6 passenger option is somewhat of a deal breaker for me... they have to put it back! They removed the ability to use the front row as a bed...
Sounds like people are surprised when they find a Tesla station that is slow, and are surprised when they find other stations that actually work. It's a good place to be for Tesla.
For the Corolla sized vehicle an Axial Flux motor flanked in coax with 2 torque converters would eliminate ALL gears including differential. Simple, 90mph would be adequate and torque would be adequate with a reduced size AF motor. 40 size battery would get 400 mile range for a 4 passenger vehicle. (no center console please)
I would love a cluster too. Or an option to a properly integrated third party integrated cluster. Navigation on the cluster 😋. I have limited side sight.
@@Gurule Yes, I could see that…BTW, I call clear coat “clear paint”. A “finish” could be polish or an oxidizing treatment. I personally want to laser etch my cyber truck.
yes! I would love to see ventilated seats and drivers instrument cluster on project island and eventually Juniper. I’ve actually considered upgrading to the model X, but it is so darn expensive. I wonder if the model X will be phased out.
@@lemongavine Perhaps…but I think Tesla can and should do better. The X is a dated design and ranked LAST at #18 (lowest score) on the US News premium EV SUVs. It’ just crazy expensive to make…FAST isn’t everything
The Gear Tunnel on the Rivian is way more useful than a Frunk. We love our Rivian, but the front many times is very hot. The Gear tunnel is brilliant and Cybertruck doesn't have one. Very few buyers of the Cybertruck will need a 6' bed.
Cory- can u speculate how efficient Ford’s upcoming Expedition EV might be? First ever LARGE FULL size EV SUV? Will it offer cargo room equivalent to expedition max/Suburban?
i my opinion cory will go work for tesla at giga mexico when it starts and he will be either running the site ie. putting all the lines in and getting the lines to max speed ect he has a year to learn from tesla for this job and in my opinion he knows most of what he needs from monro ect ...what do you guys think ?
The biggest ??? I have with CT is the voltage and supercharger compatibility. 1000V architecture, but SCs don't do that, does that mean CT will need retrofitted v3 superchargers or v4 only? How will it work on v2 superchargers?
Wouldn't a lack of serviceability also implying a lack of recyclability? I don't believe you can't have serviceability and reliability at the same time.
I personally don't think Cyber truck is going to be a hit especilly , fifty or older truck lovers due to it looking too futuristic , but if they can scale it down a bit and make it affordable and Tesla works on the infastructure and puts more charging stations throuhout the country like gas stations, I know someone in North Carolina and he says that's the biggest problem he has with an EV and now he's getting rid of it.
I want what you want too, IF it's not there I would just give it time, I am SURE mods will come, either by Tesla themselves or creative third-party who will make a fortune off of it.... ALSO, remember there are often GOOD reasons why some things are done and until we fully KNOW what is up we will have to wait 😊
@@LJ-jq8og The demand for this vehicle is already unprecedented and will likely increase exponentially. I attended the unveiling and test ride afterwards. It was stunning to say the least!
In response to the comment about not selling the CT outside North America, I'm in the UK and haven't had a cancellation notice from Tesla. The truck market isn't limited to North America, people in other parts of the world want it too! I know that there are quite a number of orders in the UK according to the Cybertruck owners club. Not just the UK though, Australia will be a big market as will other countries
@@davidelliott5843 Singapore also. The volume will determine whether they make RHD versions though. I believe volumes will be higher then model S and X but it doesn't matter to me as I'll take a LHD version if I can't get RHD.
If the steering was drive by wire, couldn't the mfgs have the steering wheel not move while in auto pilot and then if it needed to disengage quickly place the steering wheel at the correct position for takeover.
1:06:56 when EVs take over 90%+ of the roads (2040?) There will be as many gas stations as there are currently Supercharger locations. Who's feeling range anxiety then?
best of luck to Corey in his next ventures. If Ford (GM, VW... TOYOTA!) were smart, they'd hire Corey to help whip their EV design and production up to speed.... that is, to somewhere close to what Tesla is doing. The secret to Tesla's success is no great mystery, we had a similar monumental movement in technology in aviation, astounding evolution and adoption from the 1930s to the end of WWII (1945) - which saw the transition from mostly wood & fabric biplanes to metal monoplanes to jet aircraft to rockets and space travel. These fantastic advances were mostly driven by engineering - better metals, better engines, better manufacturing - but some advances were driven by theoretical science, especially Werner von Braun's rockets and Frank Whittle's jet engines. Another example is the Manhattan Project" A-bomb development - this really started as a THEORY, and was made in to reality by relentless engineering attempting to approach the theoretical possibilities (of achieving a chain reaction in a critical mass of specific nuclear isotopes) That's Tesla's "big secret" - using state of art engineering to achieve theoretical possibilities. By contrast, legacy automakers have been committed to redesigning the wheel every 5 to 7 years - new body panels, new engines, even new manufacturing techniques but no real effort to achieve theoretical maximums. (Tesla, for example, is relentless in trying to achieve energy efficiency (theoretical limits) from electric production to storage in battery to final drive of an EV car
My Guess on Cory's Next Position is: Join Tesla and lead the Design Team to Develop a large EV version of a LARGE Tahoe. Cory's Dream version of his next Vehicle.
@thelifeaquatica in this interview Cory said he's traveling in the morning to a big city and that will be a clue to his next career move. Doesn't fit with being a UA-camr.
@@alanlight7740 It's pretty clear that 1/8" thick stainless doors and front end aren't adding a whole lot of strength but it's sure adding a lot of weight. I don't get it.
@@DanielASchaeffer - I don't expect that the front end will be 1/8" thick, as they'll want to make sure they have a crush zone. There's not enough room on the sides to have a crush zone, so there the chief safety goal is to prevent intrusions into the vehicle. Weight ... is important but not everything for an electric vehicle with regenerative breaking.
Stainless steel is not all its cracked up to be. It’s tough, making hard to press or fold. But it’s low strength (bolts sheer easily) and it’s heavy. It’s also highly noble. Put it against carbon steel or aluminum and you get considerable corrosion of the less noble metal. Then there’s the cost. It’s around 20% nickel and 10% chromium. Both elements are relatively rare and very expensive. In my opinion, stainless was a dead end distraction for CyberTruck. Ally is strong lightweight, low cost and easy to form. Tesla have already proven it’s worth in vehicles.
Corey looks young…. I admittedly have no idea about his past but I suspect his tenure at Monroe constitutes the majority of his work experience, if not all of it. ….I believe if his path forward is based on his experience then it will be in a ‘consulting’ type of role based on reverse engineering. I just don’t see logically that he would get into new auto manufacturing, although he did hint about his next trip which is LA. Rivian ? Fisker ? I also believe his departure from Monroe seemed abrupt and his first ‘Tweet’ implied he had no plans whatsoever, so that leads me to believe that for the next month or so he’ll likely be traveling to explore his options.
Ill say it - Cybertruck looks too small. Would prefer it a full crew cab f150 length. I guess ill wait for a large SUV from Tesla similar to a suburban!
The UK is not Europe it is ot even part of the European Union so please get your geography right. Europe is left hand drive so no reason not to have the Cyber Truck. As European trucks tend to be smaller then US trucks it may make sense to produce a scaled down European Cyber Truck. Don’t forget Giga Berlin who is in the perfect position to build a European Cyber Truck.
I am STUNNED about Cory’s departure.
my condolonces
Hope you can make it through these difficult times. My prayers are with you
What was the verdict on the new job? Anything?

Great that you are both driving this narrative and being entrepreneurs. Best of luck. You both have already contributed a lot to Tesla and BEV.
9:07 that's just perspective guys. The CT is further away from the camera. The CT is definitely larger.
Watching 12/22/23 and you men predicted well. Excellent!

Cory Steuben, thanks for all the fish.
This deserves more views
How long before Tesla scoops up Cory? Whatever you do, wherever you end up, your futur is bright my friend! Now who will police Sandy when he goes off brand?
Cory has kids. He’s not going to Tesla.
True@@Ask-a-Rocket-Scientist
Thanks Cory for your "5 mins" ! :)
I love Sandy, but noticed Cory's worried look when Sandy was going off-the-rails, shall we say, after a few small bevvies...
Thanks for doing this
Just a hunch; based on how Cory answered questions I bet he’s going to work for Tesla as their new “Digital Face” guy! 👍
That would create friction between Tesla and Monroe… I’m guessing Rivian
@@Jethr001 I’m sure it would, but Tesla doesn’t need Munro as much as Munro might need Tesla and Cory being a family man might lead him to making a decision he feels is best for his family. I can see Corey explaining that to Sandy. 🤷♂️
Corey's X profile photo: He's going to RIVIAN!
Rivian needs him… However, their manufacturing process is so expensive, don’t know if it can be saved
Good for Cory. RIVIAN now has a chance to get to profitability…and the 2nd car company to be successful in 100 years after TESLA.

Thanks Chris and Cory. Congrats Cory!!! Lotsa love to all ❤❤❤ including Munro and Associates.
Absolutely Cory! 6th seat is a must 🎯
Just for kids so put it in the open air bed, they'll love it back there. 😁
I canceled because of this. Going for an SUV like Cory said.
Thank you

Rockchips are so hard to avoid in Texas
We are stunned!!!!
I would love a cluster too. Or an option to a properly integrated third party integrated cluster. Navigation on the cluster 😋. I have limited side sight.
10:40 I have a similar picture of a Chevy BOLT and a Smart ForTwo. The smart looked the same size as the bolt. Angles and Lenses are misleading.
I live in Florida. Starlink is great... until it rains. Heavy rains do it every time. I knew this when buying it, but yeah.
Amazing content. Thanks both of you.
Love the pod cast, first time watching. A higher resolution camera and broadcast would be welcome.
Dirty Tesla falls asleep @ 48:26 🤣
O my God Cory munro live will not be the same without you 💔
I would love for Cory to do a TESLA CHANNEL for TESLA. Breaking down everything.
I agree with this message.
Franz, in an interview, said that the stainless steel on the Cybertruck will have a protective clear coat.
What interview? Link?
Why? worst part of environment contamination is the paint!
@@Jethr001 I'm 98.69% sure that this post is fake news. Franz mentioned a finish but never said paint

Sorry cory. Hang in there bud! You're great, you'll survive👏👏
Sorry for what? (I'm not up to speed on his transition but assumed it was his choice--gotta be)
Sorry Cory? More like, "Sorry Sandy. Hang in there bud!...etc."
Lmao @ 48 min in 😂
The cyber truck is 11 inches longer than the Rivian as mentioned on the Viking podcast.?
Shout out to Eric, he’s awesome! 😉
must have hit the cobbled section of the super highway
Darn, I’m sorry I missed this.
When they dip the unit (electroplated) not just painted, could be a finish product looks s/s.
Will the S/X get gig castings in order to improve quality.
The castings would reduce alignment issues with the X rear doors.
The biggest ??? I have with CT is the voltage and supercharger compatibility. 1000V architecture, but SCs don't do that, does that mean CT will need retrofitted v3 superchargers or v4 only? How will it work on v2 superchargers?
Wouldn't a lack of serviceability also implying a lack of recyclability? I don't believe you can't have serviceability and reliability at the same time.
Vast majority of Europe doesn’t drive on the other side of the road-only the UK.
Chris fell asleep half way trough 😂
I saw this comment right at that point in the video and thought he did for a second! 😂
If he did it might be a medical condition. Like a sleep disorder or narcolepsy. It not a sign of inattention or a weakness.
But most of Europe including Germany is left hand drive tho lol
Should be roll down rear window on Cybertruck. Don't forget the glass is bulletproof, so it ain't going to break with vibrations etc.
Bullet proof glass beaks. It just stays in place.
Glass isn't bulletproof, it was the body
My guess is Cory will goto Aptera. Total guess. I think they could use him.
Cory needs a BYD short buss!
Mr Cory you have to open your own utube channel

Sounds like he's flying to Austin lol
If the rear window doesnt roll down and theres no hvac for camping in the bed, that's a huge missed opportunity and a deal breaker for me.
I want what you want too, IF it's not there I would just give it time, I am SURE mods will come, either by Tesla themselves or creative third-party who will make a fortune off of it.... ALSO, remember there are often GOOD reasons why some things are done and until we fully KNOW what is up we will have to wait 😊
I agree! but… What else do you have? I also wanted to put a slide in camper in the bed.
One more CT for us!!!
@@RayNLA Exactly, they are now saying waiting list may be 7-8 years 💪❤ Would not be surprised if they don't open a second CT factory at some point ?

Spy shots show an asymmetrical “firewall” that favours LHD. Maybe they plan a mirror version for RHD but it’s unlikely they’d do that. Costs.
European cars are Left Hand Drive. It’s UK, Japan, Australia, NZ and most of Africa that use RHD.
@@davidelliott5843 Singapore also. The volume will determine whether they make RHD versions though. I believe volumes will be higher then model S and X but it doesn't matter to me as I'll take a LHD version if I can't get RHD.
Why did Corey resign?!! That's the big question ❓❓
To do bigger things
@@AdamWood we shall see, he seemed to be not doing nearly as much as he used to at Monroe so yes it will be very interesting to see what he does!
TO BECOME A BIG TIME UA-cam INFLUENCER?
@@kevroll99as outsiders we barely see, say, 10% of what he did at Munro. The company is much larger than its UA-cam output.
