Don't kill it before you try to satisfy the (edgy) @CyberTruck curb appeal and cost/durability trade off and 3 row versatility first. Don't quit now @elonmusk & @wmorrill3! Also, restore FSD speed controls. Learn from the failure, that's how you can save both.
Try this with the injection molded color panels first. The low poly count and expense of the stainless body are very likely the main detractors for potential buyers. The @CyberCab panels are similarly durable for @CyberTruck applications and shape-able & many want 3 rows.

An open offer to Tesla: We fully support putting Cybercab first, and we’d be glad to take the Cybertruck line off your hands.
We’d fund it with a consortium of investors and run it at no cost to Tesla’s floor space, headcount, or focus. All of that goes to Cybercab. Cybercab gets first call on battery cells too. We’ll wait our turn.
Tesla gains incremental profit: a license fee, plus FSD and Robotaxi network revenues on every vehicle built.
We’d build the Cybertruck, a three-row CyberSUV, and an unmanned CyberCargo hauler. More autonomous miles, across every surface of this planet and beyond.
Worth a conversation?
The @CyberTruck and the @CyberCab aren't mutually exclusive products, we aight not sacrifice one for the other regardless of the obvious profit margin discrepancies.

I don't care about maximizing profits with 2 seat metro centric autonomy if it means sacrificing the best clean electric pickup truck segment, seeding it to the legacy auto who continue to prove they won't deliver. There is no reason to not pursue both, all automotive segments.
I don't buy the "more room for @RoboTaxi" excuse. They should really do a 3 row SUV version, but especially do a CyberCab injection molded color panels version to lower stainless costs while keeping the durability and softening the edgy low poly style. Every technical aspect of the @CyberTruck is unmatched. It's by far the best all around vehicle ever, if you've never use one for a week you just can't understand...
I'll never give up my CyberBeast and will have an eye out for a second used Foundation with FSD. I'll keep making my boring #CyberPlasma videos on my channel & X/Twitter of it doing FSD while off-road, towing jobs, 48 hour road trips, drag racing, track days, sand dunes for decades to come...

Booooooo! Pivot to a Cyber SUV & also try versions of the Truck & 3 row SUV with CyberCab type panels for a more "traditional" appearance before winding down. The @CyberTruck tech is unmatched by anything else on the market in so many aspects. It will be tragic to lose it.
Had some trouble with the solar power cables binding up under the rail when storing the panels. So had @claudeai (amazingly) help iterate on some cable chain guide designs.
Finally got around to installing that today. Working great so far, hope it holds up over time with use.

Finally "finished" my @CyberTruck stowable 200w of Solar PV over the thonneu, powers an @EcoFlowTech that runs the cameras & @Starlink & air compressor, etc, & I guess could recharge maybe 1-2kWh over the course of a day in a pinch. Plans for a second pair over the roof maybe.

Every @Tesla feedback survey I fill out until you simply capitulate and restore speed control:
I NEED manual max speed and the old speed offset to be restored. I'm intervening orders of magnitude more than when I just had 10% offset because speed profiles are great at assertiveness but will NEVER be able to infer my desired speed, which I could just input with the offset or override with the scroll wheel.
Check my other comments for the myriad of real world situations where manual speed is the only practical solution short of installing a @neuralink to read my mind. Follow this thread back to December 2025 for so many justifications: teapawt.net/D0li0/status/211529013…
Please for the love of your customers sanity make these available again. Use them for training. They aren't mutually exclusive with the continued development of profiles. Heck, you can hide them in the settings screen and make them default to off during every drive like the slippery surfaces setting. Make me work for it when I need to be able to precisely control the speed, I don't care!
My private @CyberTruck and my wife's Model Y aren't a @RoboTaxi! How much do you want me to pay beyond the $8k each I already did in order to get this simple feature that was already perfect and is now malicious being withheld out of hubris and anti-patrern (sic) unachievable aspirations?
I absolutely & completely agree with their @RoboTaxi full autonomous aspirations. I have zero doubt they will achieve it.
But giving owners the ability to manage speed has no adverse impacts to mastery of autonomy. In fact, I would conjecture that manual speed is better training input.
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE Don't make me resort to asking NHTSA to force your hand like the dumb stop signs thing! But at this point, more than a year in with speed profiles still constantly failing, and a simple solution that was already present readily available, I don't know what else I can do? Just restore control over the speed already!! Please! I'm begging you!

FSD is excellent, & speed offset & scroll speed swipe were perfect. Have we come to the point over the last year of horrible speed profiles that we've realized removing those was too much & we can have them back please? The best control isn't no control.

Hasn't aged well. Did y'all miss that Max can also reduce the speed? I know @aelluswamy, @pduan, yourself are infallible. But maybe manual max speed was the "removed too much" part, & it's time to permanently restore it? Learn from this Failure please.

It's been like two year since your self quote, about speed input being oh so "Legacy". FSD just rolled in hot at 30MPH to a 20MPH school zone this morning. So how about you add manual max speed permanently, & use our high precision inputs for training?

Why does any company do halo projects and racing teams? To win over customers for their non-halo staples. To develop cutting edge tech which eventually potentially makes it into other vehicles. To just sharpen their engineering skills. Bragging rights. Advanciythe state of the art generally. Etc etc... Cars aren't simply transportation, never have been, nor horses, this is pure motor sport.
Perhaps as a @Tesla/@SpaceX merger pitch, but all Elon Ventures have always cross pollinated. An OG roadster was the validation payload for Falcon Heavy. Tesla motors were used as grid fin actuators and @boringcompany tunnels propulsion. They all benefit from the battery tech. The starship stainless transfered to the @CyberTruck. The AI is used in @Neuralink brain signal processing deciphering. The synergies are obvious and apparent across all the companies. And they all further the ultimate @NASAMars aspiration to create redundancy for life beyond our inevitable ELE vulnerable cradle we call @Earth, and that mission will enhance our curation of @NASAEarth itself.
All these things have been apparent and obvious to me for perhaps a decade, and since the inception of each new company. Given the correct frame of reference it is all the epitome of selfless expertise in the wielding of capitalism and the best of the human minds potentials in the teams he creates and leads.
Knight Industries, Stark Industries, and the Weyland-Yutani Corporation have nothing on @ElonMusk Enterprises. ;)

Here is the next-gen Tesla Roadster development video from the unveil event that they shared exclusively with us.
Great #NDEW2026 @DriveElecEvents at Green River College @GreenRiverCC campus.
Used my @CyberTruck to charge our @SeattleEVA club presidents converted flat bed, though he didn't really need it.

Great Day of @CyberTruck Off-Roading along PNW Mountain Loop HWY, Coal Lake, & Quarry on Helena Ridge for some pinstripes with @DaveMattson @ogre_codes @RussianWorm @Oceanswave @FrancoisK37M @verbal213. FSD did the vast majority of my driving:

Just used one tonight, we're in a city with no superchargers. Stopped by Walmart for some supplies & saw the 4 CCS/NACS DCFC on the edge of the lot. Logged into the app, added a card, scanned the screen, worked fine. Failed to get back to the app session page once I left it.
My first sighting of a @RoboTaxi CyberCab in the wild in the PNW on the 520 west bound leaving Redmond headed for perhaps Bellevue. One passenger in the "drivers" seat, likely an employee, no steering wheel. As I ride along in my own personal @CyberTruck RoboTaxi.

Spirit is open for holoween, so it must be time to change up the decorations? And found a few more magnets for my space corner of the tailgate:
Added a @CYBERTRUCKco roof rack cross bar #2#3 & molle panel & 2 bar bridge, for my first week ¼" bolt puncture & plugged spare tire.
No instructions, but figured it out, but didn't use the little 6" rubber piece.

Took delivery today of my @Tesla CyberTruck trip motor CyberBeast.
So I'll be a little busy crusin' around for a spell. Looking forward to the BEV car shows, Uber/Lyft rides, drag strip, might see it they will let me into SCCA autoX with a truck.
Finally "finished" my @CyberTruck stowable 200w of Solar PV over the thonneu, powers an @EcoFlowTech that runs the cameras & @Starlink & air compressor, etc, & I guess could recharge maybe 1-2kWh over the course of a day in a pinch. Plans for a second pair over the roof maybe.
Not much happening here in this PNW Cybertruck X Groups, so thought I would make some noise... (or maybe I just forget to check this feed, DOHH) Anyway:
Mountain Loop Highway drive is this Sunday per
