TIME TO DESIGN MY CYBERTRUCK AND TESLA BATTERY LOSS IN 30 DAYS WHILE GARAGED

EV Channels Review

The reviewer received an email to design their Foundation Series Cybertruck, ordered in October 2021. While appreciating the unique look, steer-by-wire, rear-wheel steering, powered tunnel cover, and consistent Tesla software interface, significant drawbacks were noted. The $220,000 price for the Foundation Series, including FSD that is not yet enabled, is deemed not worth it. Quality concerns, similar to past Model X experiences, are a major deterrent. Ultimately, the reviewer decides against purchasing the Cybertruck, preferring their Rivian R1T and the flexibility of its lease, and wanting to avoid another potential depreciation "L" like their Model Y Performance. The video also covers a 4% state-of-charge loss on a Tesla Model Y and Model X after 30+ days garaged with specific settings disabled, a significant improvement over active use. Other topics include Model Y registration renewal costs, observations on the Quicksilver Model Y color, Tesla Mate 429 errors, FSD display issues, a Rivian wall connector overheating, and a Rivian software update featuring turn signal cameras.
