@VibeWithRB @liorsela I honestly don’t think the ventilated seats do much on my dual motor cyber. I could go without them and it’d be fine. The air suspension is amazing though, especially for winter driving with deep snow.

Just saw the Dual Motor AWD Cybertruck at the Tesla showroom in Matthews, NC. At first glance, it looks like any other Cybertruck trim 📐 But up close, the differences become clear: 18” wheels, coil suspension, and cloth seats. This feels like the perfect entry-level Cybertruck. Tesla should seriously consider bringing back the $59k price tag. It would sell extremely well.

@SCH_Clay Is that the MR1? What do you think of it?

I’m too lazy to change tools manually so we do the entire job with a 1/8” endmill while I sit here and scroll twitter

@rhensing Right on, those look awesome!

@Space_Trav Great Outdoor Cottage

@JustonBrazda @DoctorJack16 How does your range compare with these compared to the stock Pirellis?

@DoctorJack16 I still say the Bridgestone dueller is the best all-around tire you can get. Same weight as the stock all-terrain 60,000 mile warranty wider and smoother than the stock all-terrain and has the three peak snow rating.

For Tesla Cybertruck’s owners, below are some advice on tires to save you money and time. 1st tip - rotate your tires promptly! Apparently if u ride at a higher height (mine is medium) the back inner tires seem to wear out faster so rotating them every 6500 miles is key to the longevity of your tires. 2nd tip - consider switching the original factory all-terrain tires with the Michelin Defender LTX Platinum tires. Especially if u rarely go off-roading as they are designed for more highway driving. Supposedly you will get much more mileage out of the tires compared to the factory and they are about the same cost. I have pictures below. Personally, I think the Michelin tires look better and the ride seems smoother and quieter as well. I did also remove the wheel cover and put the cap on instead. Thanks to @revnine for the 3-D printed caps. I got tired of pulling that big cover on and off. The mileage will suffer a little but no more scratching the wheels when they are pulled on and off. Anyhow, I hope this helps. If anyone has any other suggestions or opinions please let the community know below. Thanks.

@Seanfrank CEO of $69 price tags, nice!

@forgotv Where’d you get the lug nut covers? I just took the aero covers off my wheels.

I love the reaction of people when I tell them how I got my Cybertruck. "What the hell do you do" (I always look like a bum) "A video game bought it, I haven't had a w-2 in 20+ years" "huh" "yeah I put about $13k from a video game withdrawal into Tesla when Cybertruck was announced, it paid for it in full" 😶 🤣

@tag36l @JustonBrazda Agreed. Seems like every advancement breaks a few things. Once it’s been good is hard to regress. Overall I think it’s heading in the right direction. I don’t ever get nagged for paying attention anymore.

@Space_Trav @JustonBrazda IMO with the exception of having it hit the breaks for leaves, 14.2.1 was the best. Everything has been a downgrade from there for me.

On a 100 mile drive 14.3.2 in standard mode keeps going 62 in a 70 on a wide open 4 Lane highway I bumped it up to hurry and it doesn’t go any faster. I’ve hit the accelerator at least 30 times in 30 miles.

@CajunCybertruck Lots of scrubbing. Although I don’t get too particular about keeping it clean.

@Space_Trav This is very nice! What have you found to be the best way to deal with the bugs on the bumper?

My First Full Year with the 2025 Cybertruck AWD It’s been one year since I took delivery of my 2025 Cybertruck AWD here in Prairieville, Louisiana. I’ve put over 18,500 miles on it—bayou backroads, flooded highways after heavy rains, long I-10 runs, everyday driving, and several road trips to Panama City Beach, Pensacola, Destin, Orlando, Houston, and Galveston. The Good The performance still impresses me every drive. Instant torque from the dual motors makes merging and passing effortless, and the steer-by-wire with four-wheel steering keeps this big truck surprisingly agile in parking lots and tight turns. Full Self-Driving has improved noticeably on highways, letting me relax more on longer stretches. The vault bed is practical for hauling tools, gear, or supplies without shifting. In real Louisiana heat and humidity, with the all-terrain tires, I’m seeing about 2.3–2.5 mi/kWh—solid for a truck this size. Home charging keeps operating costs way lower than my old gas truck. The cabin was already quiet from day one, and the recent Active Noise Cancellation update made it even better for road trips. I’m still on the original tires with no noise or wear issues so far. Overall, the torque, handling, utility, and comfort make this something I look forward to driving every time. The Bad (or What Could Be Better) The stainless steel body shows fingerprints and smudges easily in our humid climate, so regular wiping is part of the routine—but it cleans up fast. Blind spots from the A-pillars and cameras exist, but they’re about the same as my old F-150—something every truck deals with, so it hasn’t been a problem. The Unexpected Benefits What’s surprised me most is how it’s simplified daily life. I wake up nearly every morning to a full charge thanks to overnight home charging. No more quick gas station runs or worrying about fuel before heading out—I honestly can’t remember the last time I pumped gas. Those small stops used to eat up more time than I realized; now that friction is gone. I’ve also saved all the time I used to spend on oil changes and shop appointments. That whole routine has disappeared, and the truck just takes care of its own over-the-air updates while I go about my day. These little changes have reduced everyday hassle in ways I didn’t expect. The truck feels like a reliable tool that’s always ready rather than something that needs constant attention. On road trips, the Tesla navigation simply plans all the charging stops, so I don’t have to worry or think about it. I expected Supercharging to feel slow, but I’ve found that by the time I use the restroom and grab a drink or snack, the truck is typically done charging and ready to continue. After a full year of real-world miles through South Louisiana weather and roads, this 2025 Cybertruck AWD is still the best driving decision I’ve made. It turns heads, handles daily duties and longer trips well, and the software keeps getting better. There haven’t been any minor quirks for me—the truck has been solid and reliable right from the start. I still catch myself glancing back at it in the driveway. Looking forward to year two with more miles and whatever updates come next. If you own a Cybertruck or are thinking about one, feel free to share your thoughts—I’m always open to comparing notes. #Cybertruck #Tesla #OneYearReview

@SDembraski @KwikTrip I think the Kwik charger was $0.45/kWh. I just stop there for ~10% on my way from Rochester to SW WI. It's way more convenient to be able to grab a cup of coffee and snack, I don't mind the extra few $ in electricity.

ive used that Tesla charger in Onalaska myself when visiting family in MN, Hope they update it, it is definitely slower, and nothing really close to go to for restroom as you said, I'd go to the Kwiktrip, but what are the costs, that is the other issue, usually I'll skip it and go to the one in Tomah if need be. but now with having a charger at my parents I dont really need to stop there.

Today @KwikTrip opened some new KwikTrip brand EV Supercharger sites here in WI. I believe it was 4 locations. Check out my review for them! One of them that they opened I stopped to try it and compare to Tesla. Watch the below videos to show results I found from each. 1st video is charging at KwikTrip brand charger 2nd is charging at a V3 Tesla Supercharger. Few notable pros and cons for each: KwikTrip brand Supercharger Pros: -400 max kW charging speeds -Has 1 CCS and 1 NAC charger on each station (not sure if they share power so charging speed would drop if a vehicle is using both at same time. If so that would not be good) - charging cables longer great for multiple EV models. - convenient right on site to get snacks and use the restroom if needed. Cons: - did not precondition from Tesla app even though I entered it as destination. - half the actual charging speed compared to what I get at a Tesla charger with preconditioning. - Kwik Charge app did give option to show Google or Apple Maps, app was decent but looked a bit dated. It did not show live activities while charging, it didn’t show cost on Tesla screen while charging. Had to get out and show screen - you have to get out and use Apple Pay or credit card to pay. It doesn’t automatically charge your account even though it’s setup in Kwik Charge app. - cost is considerably more the Tesla. (.53 cents per kW vs Tesla was .35-42 cents per kW Tesla: PRO’s: -seamlessly integrates with Tesla - can send destination from mobile app to Tesla. - most important part is preconditioning to get faster speeds less wait time. - cost is much more affordable for Tesla cars. I do believe non Teslas pay more at Superchargers. But would need to verify that. - most reliable and great uptime and fast repair for non working chargers. (KwikTrip is new to the EV charge game. Hopefully they will have as fast turn around for any damaged or non working chargers. Will have to see how this works out compared to other non Tesla locations) -has live activities on the app showing charging speed details, time remaining fo charging, cost right on lock screen - rolling out live activities on map where users will be able to pick their charging spot. - payment is automatically deducted from your TESLA or non Tesla vehicle that is setup on their account. No messing with tap to pay. Works so seamlessly. -AI4 Tesla’s with FSD will drive to charger itself and park on its own into charge spot. You just are along for the ride -read that again. YOUR AI4 TESLA DRIVES ITSELF AND PARKS IN ITS CHARGING SPOT ON ITS OWN at Tesla Superchargers. CON’s: -If preconditioned, slower max charging speed compared with KwikTrip. (Kwiktrip 400 vs 325 Tesla V4 chargers in WI) -doesn’t include CCS for all Tesla Superchargers. I believe all KwikTrip brand have both. - cables are not as long as KwikTrip brand. The way they have them hung to cabinet on KwikTrip brand seemed really nice to accommodate various EV’s. Overall KwikTrip isn’t a bad option. May cost more depending what you drive. The lack of preconditioning is biggest concern because this leads to slower charging speeds no matter what your site is rated at. But always great to add more options. This could come in handy for non Tesla EV’s. Always great to stop at KwikTrip for snacks and bathroom stop so makes EV charging convenient. For me as Tesla owner I’ll stick with Tesla where ever possible but what about you? Do you plan to use them? Note my full video comparisons including my Cybertruck driving to Tesla charger on its own and backing into spot.

Do you remember when you joined X? I do! #MyXAnniversary

@Rororowyaboatz @BLKMDL3 What was the temperature? My CT loses a few percent daily when it’s below freezing, even with low power mode enabled.

@BLKMDL3 Yeah left our Cybertruck for 21 days in low power mode and it lost just 4%, I did check it quite a few times while it was at airport parking.

Tesla Low Power mode works so well. My 2025 Model 3 was parked for 9 days and lost just 1% battery, even with me checking it daily.

We pay about $5k per year for Rockwell licenses at my plant. One seat of PLC software and one seat for HMI. But we also pay for the maintenance contract, which gives us the new firmware every year. And we don’t use Rockwell for our plant wide SCADA, that’s just for the few miscellaneous screens we have on some machines. Had a technician come out and charge us $2400 to unlock his program and add one set point to the HMI. Felt like robbery.

rockwell automation charges like $50k+ just for the software licenses on a mid-size line before you touch a single piece of hardware. then you need certified techs at $200/hr to change a parameter out onsite technical team cannot change ANY plc logic at our site i saw the plc install bill for one ABB arm and i almost died

The biggest opportunity in robotics right now is not humanoids, home robots, or any of that nonsense. It's achieving a 10x reduction in the total cost to install an industrial robot ($200k to $20k) using all of the progress in cost reducing actuators and sensors + AI for ease of programming.

@NestorLRamos 🔥

I’ve been staring at this page for far longer than I car to admit… 🤦‍♂️

@JoNationLive That color is 🔥

The Cybertruck with FSD supervised is the best chauffeur money can buy!

My truck lost ~12% sitting in a driveway for 40 hours in 10-25F weather. 11.3% was due to “Vehicle Standby”. Had low power mode on and didn’t check on it through the app. Reached out to Tesla and they “couldn’t find anything wrong” when they looked at things remotely. Not quite the 1% loss per day they claim in the manual.

Guy on Facebook claims his Cybertruck, parked at the airport for 2 weeks with Low Power Mode, completely drained its own battery. It burned 50% in 14 days in Low Power Mode. Is that possible or did this guy screw up?
