Thank you for the great perspective. Great video!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Thanks mate this is like almost infinitely helpful
No problem 👍
Great video, I'd love to see you talk about the tech/gear you use in your current cars.
Thanks for the idea!
That is a great idea actually
Awesome video friend watched the whole thing!
Thanks so much
Thanks for the video. Great insights and production values, as usual! I am curious if you have compared your petrol F150 to the EV version.
I haven’t had a chance to try the Lightning yet. It’s one of the only EV’s I haven’t driven
Just got mine. It is phenomenal , it will turn on a dime, It is as fast as a super car! Will cover easily 300 miles on $12.00 electricity. I feel like a celebrity, everybody is stopping me and asking questions. Gave a few test drives, weren't they impressed ! Rivian sales and projections have been cut by almost half, because of the fantastic Cyber truck effect. Probably in the next few months as CT production improves the big old trucks from Ford and GM will suffer a similar down trend. Don't buy any truck until you are able to talk to a Cyber Truck owner and possibly even snatch a test drive.
Is that you, Elon?
Hahahaha
Isn’t there a video of the new Chevy Tahoe having a tighter turn radius? Real question. Pretty sure there is
I’m really glad you like it @sat7755. Genuinely. It’s a great truck. Sounds like some of the reasons you love it (feeling like a celebrity etc) and some of the reasons I don’t like it. Just not for me.
Love it. Great comment.
Nicely done video..I liked the approach a lot. I agree ha the future belongs to alternatives to gas but we’re just not there yet for vehicles that have to actually work. Hopefully it’ll be soon though.
Great point! Thanks for watching.
I have an order. Probably wont fulfill it because
1) It does feel showy. I love the look personally but would hate the attention it brings
2) Price, its a lot more expensive than advertised and I dont actually need a truck
3) The sharp edges are a concern for the well being of others
It will age like a Hummer
What a cool video. I like that youre going outside what your typical content is for something different. Regarding the Cybertruck and electric vehicles in general, heres my problem and its not the typical green energy debate. One of the biggest current complaints about cell phones, tablets and current technology is the built in obsolescence those devices have. They dont want you to be able to easily change a battery or update it beyond a period because they want you to buy another. Kind of the same with electric vehicles. Those batteries wont stay good forever, it wont be able to handle software updates forever and so on. That Ford of yours, it could go 200 or 300 thousand miles and last for 20 years, electric vehicles, not so much. Then theres the DRM date. Same debate with digital movies, digital copies of video games, and ebooks and so on, you dont really own them, you lease them. Again, kind of the same with electric vehicles. I dont like the idea of having my vehicle constantly connected to where someone thousands of miles away who could turn off a feature in my vehicle that I paid for. Or disable alot of features to push you to "upgrade." Just seems insidious to me. Regardless, cool video. I liked it very much.
Batteries typically just lose capacity over 10 years, not become dead. And we are getting better at recycling the majority of them. The motors should last longer than any ICE, but the weight is still high so while you save on oil changes, brakes, and other maintenance, your tires go through a lot more forces. There should be laws to prevent planned obsolescence for sure. And to prevent the requirement for DRM and tracking... it is insidious for sure.
"is the built in obsolescence those devices have." Every product has a built in obsolesence. That is not limited to battery powered electronic devices. If you do not want this you must get rid of every product, including the roof on your house.
???
Have you ever looked at a Rivian R1T? Seems like it would fit your needs more.
Just pre-ordered a Rivian R2 just in case. ☺️
Make sure you are wearing non-slip shoes when using the frunk, those fenders look like a knife. And I agree, this is a very unsafe family vehicle, sharp edges are just all over the place.
Its dangerous. It does not have a steerring wheel and no stalks. This center screen is the most dangerosu and don't let me start about this windscreen wiper.
I also canceled my reservation. Thanks for the balanced perspective!
You are so welcome!
Hey, Really Nice Video! I was wondering if I could Help You Edit Your Videos and Make Highly Engaging Shorts Out Of Them.
Three of your pluses, four wheel steering, low center of gravity, and air suspension, already exist on other trucks. The other "plus", lack of switches and stalks, is actually a minus.
"The other "plus", lack of switches and stalks, is actually a minus." Only for oldtimers who do not want to learn anymore in their lifes.
I do. I would like to have one. Sadly we do not get them in Europe for the foreseeable future.
@@wolfgangpreier9160 Only idiots support changes that make things functionally worse. Anything requiring you to take eyes off the road to look at a touch screen makes driving less safe. Physical controls are operated through muscle memory. Change just for the sake of change is not good. Change needs to be thought out to see if the change is truly better. Tesla removes physical controls not because it improves functionality, but to cut corners.
Funny how kids think "old" is an insult. But with your intelligence, "old" is something you might not be bright enough to reach.
@@TroySavary Thats ok, then i am iditiot and you are the godly Zampano.
Have a nice zampanoisc life.
I do not invest a second more in someone insulting me for naught.
@@wolfgangpreier9160touchscreen gear selector is peak useless. They even had to throw a backup in the roof. “Has to get my car towed today. Spilled coffee on my touch screen” 😂
Foundation Series, MFI.
Great video though.
Title is a little misleading. You didn't buy one, so you're not actually returning it.
That’s true Kevin. A little clickbaity but I’ve got a small channel. Hope it was worth watching nonetheless?
😂😂😂😂
It wasn’t click bait read
@@nikkosrose519 Are you really that stupid or what ?
You talk about panel misalignment but didn't show any of those. Ypu talk about cybertrack not able to carry pile of wood, that,s wrong, people already used the bed very effectively. I agree that side doors and frunk can hurt children and smash carrots , but please make experiments on f-150 and you will see it's the same
No door panels on the F150 will cut people. Cope harder.
@@TroySavary You did not have a door hit you - of any vehicle in your whol life?
Very sheltered.
Every dorr can hurt you when it hits you. Even from the dog house.
@@wolfgangpreier9160 A door has never cut me. Cybertruck is the only vehicle in the world where the sharp edge of the sheet metal is not rolled over. Other doors are only going to hurt you if they accidentally slam on you. Kids will be slicing their hands simply trying to open the door on Cybertruck, since it also stupidly has no door handle so forces you to grasp the edge of the door to open. An edge they left sharp.
@@TroySavaryadd some of those baby edge guards. Lol
Oh man, so jealous! Interesting to see some of the negatives associated with the truck.
I’d also suggest removing the retro neon filter you have on the trucks and opt for a more realistic looking thumbnail with a nature-like background
ps: looking forward to the Apple Vision Pro video 😌
Thanks for the tip
you should take his advice, he's got 236 subscribers @@MarcusCreates 👍
That was a great eight-minute video packed into 21 minutes...
Hahaha. Thanks buddy. Will try harder.
Good gets me closer to my order.
☺️
18:24 Uhm you do realize that it's easier to get access into most of the side of the Cybertruck than an F-150 with a 4" lift right because it has an air suspension right? Not to mention that you've got the sides blocked with your weekend warrior gear.
😂
CT has Interesting design, but with so many compromizes, poor visibility all around, super sensitive steering in low speeds (you have to be super careful all the time cruising in the city, not to make passengers feel sick etc, absence of stalks etc like looking so poor and cheap and empty inside especially at night with just a big screen in the middle, while even cheap cars have 3d instrument panels that look so much better etc etc, "problems" that have been solved many decades ago by convensional cars.
In person it looks better i think, but its funny in the videos that most cars around it looking much better, in fact it makes some cars you would not look twice, to look good haha controversial but true...
Some more negative things i realised from my quick test drive in the States: back passengers sit rather low and the front massive seats with those fixed headrests block very much their view ahead. In all other trucks and suvs and even in most hatchbacks the visibility is much better.
The electric motor noise is quite loud at any speed in acceleration and in deseleration, which is fun in the beggining but will be tiring in everyday use... and the list goes on and on... still a nice toy for the weekends if you are in the mood trying to fight all these problems which do not exist in almost no other car of today...
Also it is not futuristic, it is like retro-futuristic.... would really be futuristic if it was made in late 70s or 80s.
This is my objective opinion, not for me, too much struggle , still an interesting vehicle for youtube content etx
Curious, didn't you notice as well those negatives, like the poor visibility, the cheap feeling driving this at night time, the sensitivity of the steering in low speeds? (which is good only in parking lots, like 1% of low speed driving)
The list of negatives is very big unfortunately, i didn't bother to mention many which are common in other teslas too, from the ergonomic point of view, which to most experienced drivers are deal brakers, like meyself.
Still engineering wise this is a big achievment to really put this design into production actually!
Your first reason for not having it is laughable to me, but obviously everyone has a right to their own opinion. Can't wait to get one. Not everyone has the internal fortitude to be able to enjoy something just because they like it as opposed to their *perceived* opinions of others.
Hey. Im rooting for you here. I hope you get one and love it. And it checks all the boxes for you. Genuinely. Everyone has their own path and things that make them happy. 😃
Think it's fair to say that not everyone wants a feeling of celebrity or notoriety when driving to the grocery store. Not sure why that's 'laughable'.
Its "laughable" because it hurts the feelings of Tesla fans that anyone could gave anything but unmitigated praise for a Tesla. We plebs just don't have the "intestinal fortitude" to handle the Tesla. @@tidbit19
18:43 Loading a pallet from the side? What in the world are you going on about.
I really liked this review. I am an petrolhead with some classic cars etc and my next daily car will be an ev. But it will not be a Tesla for sure. I would really like to see the truck in person (will not happen here in Germany) but from the pictures it is what I expected from the first pictures on, with those flat panels you see every „defect“ from 10 meters distance. Regarding the 4 wheel steering, I have it in my 30000€ Renault and it is fenomenal.
Thanks for sharing! I do really like the tight turning circle on it for sure. But for me the 8 year old F150 is better is most ways. Except cool factor. 😂
I am a fan of this channel so I have to tell ya: the thumbnail is terrible. I think that’s why your views aren’t too strong on this one. I saw it while scrolling and skipped passed at least 3 times. Had I known it was you and your channel, I would have clicked. So I recommend changing the thumbnail to something more in line with past thumbnails or something including your face.
Ha. Thanks Eyephere. I’m trying something new and wasn’t sure what to do with the thumbnail as it’s not my usual EDC or desk productivity style video. Really appreciate the feedback and I’ve added my face to the thumbnail now. Hopefully it helps.
My comment mysteriously disappeared, so my subscription did too 🤔
Sometimes UA-cam does that. It isn't necessarily the channel owner deleting comments.
I haven’t removed any comments. Check the comments. I get a lot of negative comments and I always leave them. I’m ok if you don’t want to subscribe, it’s a choice. But I’m not censoring for positive comments. ☺️
1. You didn't return anything.
2. I think most people who aren't getting it just can't afford it. Just say that.
Appreciate the feedback. Thanks for watching.
Ah, the butthurt "you just can't afford it" defense. Which, ironically, most often comes from people who want one but can't afford it.
@@TroySavary Since mine is on the way, I guess your weak comeback means nothing.
@@marcrowd Sure it is.
Hate fucken Tesla. As a subscriber to your channel i watched the whole damn video.Keep up the great content.
I'm based enough not to care whether others like the car I'm driving, and I'm not worried about being mistaken for a "tech-bro" (dumb term). I'll spend the way I want to. So, I'm keeping my order in place. In fact, I've ordered more than one. So, I'll take you cancellation, thank you.
Interesting video , some valid points , i think if there is a mark 2 cybertruck , that would be a really interesting machine , this first one feels like it hasnt be properly finished off and is somewhat less than ideal for kids and pedestrians. However some parts are cool , the steering being the ace card and the airflow transfer over the bed cover design for improved mileage. Its really not a bad city truck that still works as a family vehicle and still has a big bed and yet is compact , and manouverable , no other truck does all that. If was to pick a truck in the morning id go for the F 150 , for the front trunk alone .
Nope should have been your thought when you considered making this one. This could have been a sort.
Hahaha. Zing. Appreciate you.
@@MarcusCreates I appreciate you too man!
I want a cyber truck to flex on my friends and make them feel inferior to me and my massive wealth 🤑.. lol
Each to their own.
I own a Ford F150, and I don't think I've ever "loaded something over the side of the bed." That's a dumb reason not to buy the truck.
What a sappy video. You mentioned fit and finish issues, but with all your flex photography equipment, there wasn’t one photo or video to back up your statements. And regarding your lunchbox, do you really need to put it in the bed of the truck? Again, a sappy video. Sponsored by Ford?
Appreciate the feedback. Thanks for watching.
Salty post. Not being able to put stuff in the bed over the sides is a legitimate complaint. Are you sponsered by Tesla?
If you need to put your lunchbox over the high end of the side, then I'm going to suggest you have other problems.@@TroySavary
@@vollition You are fixated weirdly on lunchboxes. If you had a job, maybe you would know about these devices called "tools".
👍Ford, RAM and GM know pickups!
Your caption is misleading. It’s not your cybertruck.
He doesn’t claim that.
I took a model 3 for a test drive and didn't like it at all. They're a lot smaller than i thought and the middle display is directly in the way of your leg if you're tall. The build quality was really shit as well. I think the people working at Tesla aren't used to people not liking their cars, can confirm: Tesla's don't sell themselves. The cybertruck looks stupid, IMHO
Lies
@@gabby9835Truth.
And you dont have a cybertruck lmfao 😂
That's a plus.
The only people who like this "truck" are Elon fan boys. It's ugly as hell and as you said, not practical as a family vehicle or work truck. Some of the tech is cool but this thing is a solution in search of a problem. Hard pass.
Gear change on a touch screen is the single stupidest piece of car design I've seen in decades.
I thought that too at first , but dont forget there is a overhead backup in case the screen fails.
@@andrewashmore8000 That is true of the truck, I don't think it's true of the car from the review I saw. There didn't seem to be the same manual backup above the driver. Even with a backup it's still a stupid idea.
@@malthuswasright i think its part of Elon philosophy of cost saving , hes trying to remove as many as possible hardware items from the vehicles. Even the cybertruck has no door handles , which is bizarre and frankly dangerous. Hence hes trying to put as much as possible into the screen. Personally i think its not a clever strategy , as customer satisfaction should come first and then try to save money after through innovation in manufacturing.
So basicly your returning a truck you haven't even bought?
Well this is so e serious clikbait going on here.
Was the video valuable though?
@@MarcusCreates It doesn't really matter, Cybertruck will never be available in my country as it won't meet pedestrian safety regulations.
Corrected version: I cancelled my Cybertruck order because I’m broke and too old to impress anyone anyways
Dude is the VP of a tech company. He could probably buy a handful of them in cash. 😂
It just isn't practical to do "truck" work with an EV yet and certainly not this ugly, insanely heavy, and poorly designed thing sold by a horrible bigot. Most people buying these don't need a truck at all, so it's just a really inefficient EV that is dangerous to everyone around it. And to your point, the F150 is too big for the vast majority of owners. They use them as really inefficient cars which is just bad for everyone. I am sorry that you felt uncomfortable, but I think that is the biggest problem with Elon. Definitely going to be controversial.
Very well said!
Woke SJWs commenting on what is a work truck as if they have any idea, you can't make this up😂
Aint nobody care
Thanks for sharing?
A scary and impractical piece of metal.
