This episode of Keep on CyberTruckin' delves into several key aspects of the Cybertruck, starting with a critical look at the BaseCamp rooftop tent. While acknowledging its potential for cold-weather camping and the availability of power outlets, the reviewers found it cumbersome and questioned its $3,000 price tag, especially with the need to remove an "arrow flap" and concerns about water runoff. The discussion then shifted to Tesla's controversial decision to offer early configuration access to long-term shareholders, a move seen by some as a departure from the reservation line. The conversation also touched upon the delayed rollout of PowerShare hardware, with electricians unable to install units due to a lack of gateways, and the uncertainty surrounding software updates. A significant portion was dedicated to aftermarket ballistic glass replacements, with prices for side windows and doors noted, alongside speculation about the windshield cost and its limitations. The episode also covered the "What were they thinking?" segment featuring a man jumping on the Cybertruck's windshield, and an update on Eric's damaged Cybertruck, highlighting the resilience of the stainless steel body despite damage to the rocker panel and wheel flare. Finally, the hosts addressed Tesla's crackdown on Cybertruck resellers, with one individual having all their reservations canceled and being banned from future purchases. The episode concluded with a "wrap of the week" and a tease about a potential DeLorean Easter egg.
