New Tesla App updates show Cybertruck details.

It appears the standard wheels are 18” with what look like normal all-season tires. There are also 20” rims with all-terrain tires.

Personally, I’d prefer 18” rims with all terrain tires (more cushion/protection for off-road).

The app also previews the Beast Mode acceleration animation and keycard placement.

🪡More below in 🧵

We also get a preview of one of the first in-house Tesla accessories, a tent called BaseCamp (leak from @Tesla_App_iOS).

Back in March, I confirmed that Tesla would be making accessories in house. This appears to be one of the first offerings.

🧵Mini-Thread🪡:

My family just took our annual trip from Seattle to remote Northern Idaho 🤠🥔.

@elonmusk’s @TeslaCharging, FSD Beta, and @Starlink made it easier than ever before.

Just a few years ago, there were only two Superchargers between Seattle and Spokane, now… twitter.com/i/web/status/1… Image Our refresh @Tesla Model X could have made the almost 400 mile trip easily with one stop, but with two young kids, we opted to make two supercharger stops each way.

As usual, there were no waits to charge (unlike that massive line for gasoline at Costco in Coeur d’Alene).

THREAD: A TESLA MODEL 3 IS RIDICULOUSLY CHEAPER THAN A PRIUS🧵.

Not just cheaper total cost of ownership after fuel and maintenance costs.

Not just cheaper with the Federal tax credit.

But an equivalently optioned Toyota Prius costs more out the door (OTD) in 15 major markets… twitter.com/i/web/status/1… Image @MDouhne @TeslaBoomerMama @herbertong @farzyness @DillonLoomis22 @WholeMarsBlog @SawyerMerritt @4Kpodcast @live_munro 2 weeks ago some friends of mine were about to have a baby and wanted a new, safe, and fuel-efficient car. They looked at a Model 3 and a new Prius.

I gave them some advice and a day later they send me a pic of their new Model 3. Image
