Pirelli or Goodyear tires on the stock wheels. And you can put different wheels and tires on it and tinker with the suspension like any other truck.

Running through tires is one of the biggest complaint of Tesla owners. In my *"**#Wheels** playlist"* there are four channels complaining about them having to change tires on the Teslas frequently. And on the *"Whamm Bamm Tesla Cam channel"* The Teslas are forever hydroplaning and getting in accidents. While the cars around them are still driving perfectly on a rainy road.

I agree, the sound system is amazing, we love watching movies when we're in the car waiting for something. Also the speaker placement seems really good. I like to listen to audiobooks while I'm driving, and between the quietness of the vehicle and the excellent sound system, I feel like I don't have to turn up the volume that loud to easily hear the audio, even at highway speeds.

​@@GregHassler I would hope so after purchasing a hunk of metal for $50,000, $79,000, or $99,000. Vehicles have some of the highest depreciation in a market. My '07 pickup was purchased at $7,000. Does great on on the FR roads, if I continue to take care of it of course. It also has a spare tire that is attached underneath. The following is a stereotype : People who own pickups are typically people who want to be independent and not rely on others. It just seems insane that they didn't design a space for a spare tire.

@@HamiltonThielsen I have a 2000 GMC pickup that has never had the spare removed from under the box and probably couldn’t get it off if I needed it.

This “truck” is for guys who wear faux tactical gear to go to the air soft range.

@@993mike That's one way some will use it, just like they do with more traditional trucks and SUVs. But are you saying the Cybertruck is not for people that don't wear "faux tactical gear to go to the air soft range"? I use mine for off-road travel, wood cutting, hauling a trailer and landscaping/yard tasks. And its better at all of those things than my F-150. Better driving dynamics, nimbler at positioning for loading/unloading, higher payload capacity, higher tow rating, less cost to fill up, no regular oil and filter changes, no wheel well intrusions in the bed that interfere with loading/unloading, more powerful, more bump absorption off road, more ground clearance, quieter cruising in the cabin, more comfortable seats, better sounding stereo, etc. etc. etc. It's so superior to my F-150 that it's embarrassing to the F-150 to even compare them to each other. I will never buy an F-150 again!

That's the "Hypnosis mode" . Elons' latest secret "Bond Villain technology" designed to fool the gullible.... unless you're a "normal" person rather than someone with "polarised opinion"....

Said no one.

Totally agree. Once a long while do we see big companies taking big risk, breakthrough in products (eg. iPhone and cybertruck). It's big steps like these that eventually changes the market and enhance lives. People can complain all they want, but there is no denying cybertruck is packed with technology, other car makers never even dreamed about.

@@IronCan88 Well said Sir!

I actually disagree. I think it draws attention now, it is futuristic looking, but still has the image of a concept vehicle. Once the hype wears off, there are thousands more on the road and people don't snap their necks off gawking at it, other car makers become a bit more imaginative and innovative in their design, the looks will be more of a detriment than anything else. It's good looking from the front, but from some other angles it's really..... ugly, perhaps it will eventually end up more refined in future.

@@CandyGirl44 It's futuristic looking? At best it's what a 5 year old kid would draw if they were asked to depict a truck from the future.

@@IronCan88 Technologies "other car makers never even dreamed about" because they're stupid (unnecessarily expensive with no purpose, unnecessarily difficult to maintain, etc.) and give it a zero percent chance of ever being allowed on the streets of countries with non-trivial safety regulations for cars. Most of what's different about the Cybertruck isn't something other manufacturers couldn't do; it's something they wouldn't do because it makes no sense other than wanting to be different.

This is a HUGE issue! (no pun intended). Modern parking garages were made for 2 ton cars, one cybertruck weighs 6,834 lbs. that’s roughly 3.5 times the weight. I highly doubt parking garages built before 2010 ever thought people would be driving cars that weight more in a time when cars were being made out of plastic more and more to save on weight/emissions. Keep in mind that the average and popular model S weighs 5,000lbs, so that would instantly double the weight stress on garages. The cybertruck would just collapse it

@@Mr_Bones. my 2 door 2wd Tundra is 5200 lbs, lighter than any of the 4 door F150 or Sierra you see on the roads today. CT is not really heavier than ICE pickups nowadays.

Americans sure aren’t losing weight, making that assertion more than a little doubtful. 😂

Most people can afford food. 50% of the car buyers however can't afford to pay a monthly payment of more than $450/month.

Because they didn't want to make tesla look bad. There are no new covers yet. Another design fail of the cyberturd that shows they never tested the truck in 4 years.

The whole thing is answers to questions no one asked.

The bullet proof part is just to show how tough the exterior is. It's so tough that it can stop bullets, not that you should go get shot in it. why is that so hard to understand?

@@rustygear447 Username checks out :p

@@rustygear447 Making cybertrucks like this is one of the dumbest ideas ever. It is still going to get dented and warped in collisions, and since those panels are welded onto the chassis as this video says, you're gonna want to just ditch this thing and replace it with an ICE car when you get the repair costs estimate. Minor dents are also not a significant issue. Only OCD people really care about those. My car has a bunch, and I hardly ever even notice those. The bullets used to do the demonstration of those panels being "bulletproof" were also not the type that would be most commonly used by criminals, meaning that this whole song and dance about bulletproof panels is really just a b.s. gimmick. Criminals would go with the cheaper bullets, those being full-metal jackets rather than hollow-points (which are like less than half the price of hollow-points), especially given that FMJs penetrate stuff far better. From the tests that I have seen, I strongly doubt that those panels would stop FMJs, seeing how hollow-points came close to punching through and failed to do so clearly on account of flaring far out and flattening as they are supposed to even when they hit very soft stuff such as flesh. Sure, regular panels on old-school ICE cars are nowhere nearly as tough, but it is cheap and easy enough to remove and replace them. That makes them a much better choice. And then there is the part that the panels are steel and the chassis is aluminum. Who the hell is dumb enough to weld steel panels onto an aluminum support structure??? Aluminum and steel have very different thermal expansion coefficients, so that is just asking for trouble with parts bending or warping and welds failing at some point. I have to say Elon Musk's idiot index for other people looks very much like it is really just an attempt by him to excuse his own stupidity by trying to put down those around him.
