So I've been using Grok @Bot in my Tesla the past few weeks.
This is an insanely cool capability. Here's a few things I've done like creating invoices and updating and deploying an app all while FSD drives me around!
Cybertruck's wheelbase is 25% longer than the Model Y, but thanks to Steer-by-wire and Rear-wheel steering it launched with a turning circle only 9% larger.
After Elon drove one of the first trucks, he said - The steering is great. But I think we can make it more magical.
The team took that to heart and worked to squeeze all the capability possible from the hardware. Within a few weeks of the start of production, an over the air update went out that decreased the turning circle by nearly 2 feet.
"The steering feels magical" is still one of my favorite comments to hear from people who try Cybertruck for the first time.
I don't know if FSD 14.3.9 specifically changed anything with parking, but my Y has been parking really well lately, backing in perfectly like everywhere. It's been really nice.
Safest truck on the road.
Dude says he doesn’t know what happened. At least he’s okay. I legit thought it was an EDS person pissed that I was driving a Cybertruck coming at me. I swerved too late and he clipped my back wheel and the trailer and spun me around. Human drivers.
The Cybertruck body is a mix of aluminum and steel, the latter needs protection from the elements. So we send the body through an electrocoating bath, which deposits a protective layer a few microns thick. The original coating developed was a wonderful shade of green, which turned brown if it was baked a little too long...
We developed a black E-coat which overall improved any gap read through by adding shadow, plus it makes the bodies going down the line look a lot more like their inspiration, the F117A
Downloading FSD 14.3.10!
Hoping this makes the camera clean warnings lessen. I did just clean my cameras today but I did not clean Stephanie's so we'll have a control 😂

FSD v14.3.9 can you handle...
-A cat running across the road? ✅
-Quickly followed by a police car with lights/sirens on? ✅
-Shortly followed by an ambulance with NO lights/sirens on? (No brake stabbing allowed!) ✅
-All while it's raining? ✅
Total number of fatalities caused by a Tesla Robotaxi or a Waymo: 0
If you don't support autonomous vehicles, and worse, you're actively trying to block them, you're an idiot
Modern Cybertruck charging has actually gotten measurably better.
Tesla’s 4680 is still not a huge power-dense fast charger but it’s better than the early trucks and it’s also their most durable cell.
Seems to nearly match LFP for capacity fade (just my anecdotal impression)
