I've had to drive through complicated intersections with a lot of traffic including a car intruding into my lane and construction areas with workers. The first time I used it it made a turn too wide turning onto my street but later that day coming home again it turned beautifully . It seems like it learned. It's been flawless.

      Expectation is that a 20 year old cyberTruck exterior will be made to look new few hours w/o a bodyshop.
      It has the range needed for farmers, contractors and service people.

      I completely agree with you! We’ve been operating a fleet of Tesla vehicles for all our coffee deliveries across Texas since 2019, and we added our first Cybertruck to the fleet in April. It’s been incredible-handling heavy loads of green coffee, towing trailers, and even powering our bakery’s refrigerators for a week after the last hurricane knocked out power here in Houston!

    I’d love to hear Sandy’s reaction now that FSD is on the Cybertruck. I’ve been using it for a few days and it is mind boggling! I’m an EV newbie, so that whole shock for the past month has turned my head around. The performance and comfort exceeded my already inflated expectations. It may not be a work truck, but it certainly covers all of my needs (I just finished hauling 15 yards of wood chips into a heavily wooded property and it’s maneuvering was mind blowing). I will make a comment on FSD - it is not perfect in my eyes and there are times when I do intervene. However, I have to concede that it may have more to do with my 5+ decades of driving muscle memory than FSD’s performance. I say this because I have the same impulses when anyone else is driving me around. FSD may simply be presenting me with a different perspective that I have to learn and understand. I have a suspicion that my interventions are simply premature impulse reflexes that I need to recognize and become less sensitive too. I have already had one harrowing situation where FSD was driving and we were at a stop sign with extremely poor visibility to the left (sharp angle with heavy foliage). I was watching like a hawk when it started to proceed and turned to the right to make sure things were still clear there. All of a sudden FSD initiated an emergency stop. I didn’t understand until a car driving well in excess of a safe speed came rocketing past me. I am fairly certain that if I had been driving I may have not noticed that idiot in time to avoid a collision. Now that I am thinking about it, I wonder if that is the type of event that the truck would have recorded and saved? I have to take a look.

      Sandy was very forthcoming about the fact that plenty of companies are doing great work in the EV space. Their numbers (except for BYD) are not close to Tesla. But that could change.
      I'm hoping we see some prospects of a new model or two in the song and dance tomorrow.
      AI and robots might help a few rich people get even richer, but they are not going to accelerate the transition to renewable or sustainable energy. In fact, they would slow it down quite a bit.

      Surprisingly Teslas learn your habits fast whether be superchargers or when you don't wish to go under certain percentage. I used auto park in my CT into my garage space once after the update, today it park itself after the garage door opened. I got nervous while parking it myself with distances or whether I'll hit my mirrors, so it was few minutes of checking and rechecking the screen to see if I have to take over but it parked much better than I could ever do it myself.

    Very small niche truck. And the tell is that you can get one in a matter of weeks unlike the early reports of zillions of deposits.

    20:20 maybe Blackberry QNX SDP 8.0 can help with latency and jitter.

    Why does Sandy insist that Cybertruck is not a work truck? What is it lacking? It can do everything a work truck can do and also can do things typical work trucks cannot. Seems to me that Cybertruck is the best work truck on earth.

      Sandy has had a lot of experience with the Lightning in commercial use and the fact that many of its parts are off-the-shelf F150 parts makes them easy to replace and plus things like the power mega frunk with power outlets helps. That being said I’ve seen SO MANY Cybertrucks being used for work as well. Thanks for watching and sharing your thoughts! Lots more exciting content on the way!

      I have a lot of respect for Sandy and I know he knows things I don’t, but sometimes I still disagree with him. I believe the CT will out work the Lightning I. Almost every way.
