THE CYBERTRUCK IS FINALLY HERE - a Truck Owners Thoughts

[iRaphahell]

I am wondering if the Cybertruck will pass EU Regulations for Pedestrian Safety, it doesn't have the plastic bumpers and if someone is being hit by it, it's gonna be pretty bad.

[metacob]

I think this is great news for people who get into firefights a lot or who need to take their truck into outer space.

Who’s done more in the last 4 years? Zack in his family or Elon on Cybertruck?

It's fun to present "304 stainless" as "space grade material". It is a very common alloy: Most kitchen pans and food grade metal stuff is generally made out it (resists acidic food corrosion)

[KendoWowgeek]

The stainless steel being able to not shatter when dipped in liquid nitrogen has no bearings on any real use case. But the metal shell does raise questions when it comes to crash safety. It may be completely safe for the people in the truck but what about in a pedestrian/bicycle/motorcycle collision? It seems likely to cause more damage in those cases.

The stats on the Cybertruck are inline with other electric vehicles, I'm more interested in seeing the Implementation. Crash tests, actual battery range, handling, and convenience.

The plastic "box" hanging under the bed is just for reducing aero drag. Kyle Connor showed a view under it and there is a gap. So it could be replaced with a skid plate that relieves some of the clearance, but expect a modest reduction in efficiency.

One thing about stainless, it can rust, especially when exposed to regular steels. Stainless has an outside layer similar to aluminum oxide that's the "Stainless" part. a good scratch can contaminate stainless and then you have a nucleation site for rust to form. As one of my field service techs tell me, it's stainLESS, not stain won't.

Now do a video on the negatives of stainless steel and why almost no auto manufacturer uses it.

[AzarathGirl]

Never thought 304 stainless steel would be presented as a super material 😅

The higher voltage architecture also contributes to the weight savings as the lower current means that thinner conductors can be used in the high voltage wiring.

the most impressive thing about cybertruck is how every influencer change their tune from 'bitter disappointment' to 'revolutionary' in 24 hours all on their own. lol

[jonasfermefors]

I'm curious about crash tests. I heard the designers say they removed internal structure because the exterior provided so much rigidity.. but there is a reason cars have stopped doing that: crumple zones and on the crash test I've seen it doesn't look like the front crumples properly in a direct frontal collision.

[geraltofrivian]

You’re getting a lot of hate online I saw on Twitter from Tesla stans, which I think is unfair because you’re right on point. This is not what was promised on range or price.

[charlesurrea]

I'm just glad to see the trailer manufacturers are getting smart and putting in electric assist.

[DaveQZ]

They’re charging $400 per ramp (you’ll need two) instead. You’d think for $800 they’d make it an optional built-in tailgate function.

[dyworking]

He admits he has not driven, sat in a production cybertruck yet and he says its on par with the lightning and rivian. 😂

[KilledByThatTrain]

I wonder how long the main control screen can hold up under the lighter test

[obsidian]

I've programmed and setup cnc benders for a decade, to bend 304 Stainless steel is rough, I can tell you it's ridiculously hard to work with. Many a tooling has been lost trying to make even the simplest of bends.

[chadhall]

I love the casual raising the question of where he got a cybertruck battery cell without addressing it and the misquote of Princess Bride. You're videos are the best Zack!😂
