Will we ever get a CYBER-VAN? Will we ever get the submersible tesla promised (at least as an option?) ... Will we ever get the $20000 Tesla with comfy 4 seats, and hatch-back? (P.S. Protective Wrap should be a factory option for all cars, but in special for the CyberTruck.)
What’s special? Munro is a shill for Tesla. Rarely does he have anything ill to say about their products. Cyber is purely an exercise in futility. 100k toy for rich folks and TH-cam stars.
@Jessev741 what do you mean the bare stainless doesn't need PPF 😂 FYI - for those that don't know, PPF, "Paint Protection Film" "Protective Wrap" is used to protect the PAINT from stone chips and scratches.
Going to love watching tear down of a truck 99% of the population can’t afford. A truck that’s horrible for road infrastructure, and dangerous to anyone else not driving a tank. You know what’s great? Using science and engineering to solve problems and not create entirely new ones.
Lol you are so clueless, it literally does not make any real-life difference for the customers of this big vehicle, it is just there to impress naive fanboys without any deeper technological knowledge.
You saw it torn down? Sandy Munro does not hold any college degree. He began as a tool and die maker (tech). He knows a lot from seeing things over the years, but was never an automotive designer or analyst.
Sandy !!! I remember the days of old. Your tear downs were brutally honest. Please, I hope you don't let your friendship with Elon get in the way of your honest opinion.
I'm a fan and my order's in process, so please don't take this as a desire for negativity toward Tesla, but I really hope you're critical and not biased toward being complimentary in the evaluation or review. The best thing you've ever done for the Tesla community was sharing honest criticism of the things they did wrong on M3, and I really hope you call them on any weaknesses in CT. They will make it better faster if it's called out, and that's the best outcome.
I was thinking he said that the truck is big it’s not any bigger Than a full size Ram,Ford,Chevrolet or G M C it’s just the visibility is poor all around just to prove it he hit a friggin wall when he was backing up with cameras mind you obviously Tesla doesn’t put any parking sensors it saves them money and the rear view mirror is so small and the truck has no rearward visibility when the cover is closed they couldn’t engineer a rear view mirror/camera like many manufacturers had for years now.
Absolutely- and while I’m pretty sure Sandy will stay true to form and rant about anything he doesn’t like, seeing him wear that shirt concerns me we’re entering unapologetic fanboy territory with this one…
If you've seen his Model Y teardown and the interviews Sandy did with Elon, you'll know he's pretty blunt about things he doesn't like, and Elon definitely appreciates that.
Yes, and also thought that Tesla could sell the stainless steel pieces that result from cutting the truck doors, hood, etc, as it seems of very good quality and it would be very helpful for lots of proyects 👏👏
@tripplefives1402 Yes, but I mentioned it because this stainless steel seems to have special characteristics? I think that the ones that I use with this thickness are not bulletproof 👍👍
Watching Sandy and his guys tear apart a model 3 is what brought me to follow Munro Live in the first place. I’m older than Sandy. . . and excited to be able to learn from him. Regarding panel gaps. . . I remember accidentally slamming the hatch of my 1974 Hornet Hatchback on my son ‘S finger. Some screaming, from fear, but absolutely no damage to him.
why does everyone comment on the size of the truck...? this is a normal sized truck, perhaps a little small. it might look, or feel big, but dimensionally its got nothing on a crew cab long box dually.....
This isn't any more a truck than the Chevrolet El Camino, Ford Ranchero or Subaru Brat was a truck. Simply having a bed is not the definition of a truck and an F150 or RAM 1500 has a larger bed (both of which are actual trucks).
@@bbaz6729 They are available with longer beds, but my F150 (in the most common trim and still obviously a truck) has the 5.5' bed. And, genuinely curious why you think based on objective specs the F150 and the Ram 1500 are actual trucks ad this isn't? I own an F150 (for 12 years), and I've spent some time messing with the CT. Other than the back seat being a little larger in the F150, there's no significant form/function difference. Meaning Pretty much anythign I can put in my F150 will also go into a CT. The other specs are similar: towing (same), payload(favors CT). The CT is undoubtedly tougher on the skins than my truck, at least for dents and scratches. Both seem capable enough off-road, and CT would have had more ground clearance on the trail that ripped off the skid plate on my F150 FX4 last year. Honestly, not trying to be snarky, what makes the CT not a truck by your definition? I'm really curious about other truck users perspectives here. Is a ladder frame triple box design fundamental if it can accomplish the same tasks? Thoughts on the F150 Lightning?
Please let us know. If at all the cybertruck exterior panels were made as a traditional truck, would that make the truck heavier or lighter keeping the overall truck structural stiffness same. Does the exterior SS panels really contributing to structural stiffness.
There is one of the vids in the Tesla factory. It may have been with Cory. The engineer said how much stiffer the rear sail makes the truck bed and how much the front fender contributes to the crush. Sounds structural to me. Replace the exterior work hardened SS with mild steel and the castings would have to be made heavier to keep the same stiffness. However this truck is so incredible stiff it would still be serviceable. Just not as tough. Why the quest to prove Elon was a fool to use this material? Or is the goal to show that he lied? Tesla gave us a pickup that breaks the mold. That is a GOOD thing. Elon being human has real faults. You don't need to make this good thing look bad. Celebrate it. My apple gee's if I misread you intention. It happens.
Unsure why it being an enthusiast truck doesn’t mean it can’t be a great work truck. Seats 5. Huge lockable storage. More power output. Less worried about dents and paint damage.
He keeps saying it's not a work truck but I never get to here why he thinks that. Higher payload, more durable, larger bed. I see no reason to say it's not equal to or better than the f150 lightning as a work truck
yeah, I just don't see that either. Seems to me like the best work truck ever. I see a lot of F150 (and similar) contractors trucks that have 100's of little (and big) dents, dings and scratches in no time. Air suspension with auto levelling is a great "work" feature too. On the reverse side, the fact that there is no access from interior to rear vault area, makes it less than ideal as a "sport" truck. I'd love to hear from Sandy the "why" not the best work truck?
@dbmiller5881 unfortunately I'm fairly confident that Sandy doesn't have any objective reasoning for this statement. I have a feeling it's because of the unique look and that alone.
I am pretty sure it is because of the reach in from the side issue. Many work trucks have a toolbox reachable from the side. I am almost certain this is the reason and why most people I have heard say its not a work truck is because of that issue. I will say, that I will miss that particular aspect of my current truck when I eventually get one of these (eventually.....)
Maybe it's price? Right now the cheapest one is 99k. Basically are paying 20k for FSD and founders stuff. I got the email, but it's hard for me to justify paying that much extra for things I don't need right now. I also haven't bought FSD on any of Teslas we've owned though.
The tear down is going to be a feast. I think the guys at Tesla respect Sandy enormously and I am 100% sure that everyone involved with Cybertruck development will be watching the Munro tear down in the hopes of blowing his mind.
My favorite type of series from Munro Live! Looking forward to Carl on the interior. Really, the analysis from everyone at Munro on the engineering/manufacturing process of these vehicles is unparalleled.
I am 650'th in line in the reservation queue of over 2 million, I put my down payment on a Foundation Series 8 weeks ago, and it frustrates me that Munro gets a personal Cybertruck jumping the entire queue. I'm happy for him, but where is my truck? Grrrr 8:20
I drive a ford f 150 4x4 every day for work. I am six ft tall and use a step stool to access the bed and carry a pole with a hook to grab things that move. All full size trucks need creative was to make them user friendly
Been saying that so long I am tired of doing so. Since trucks went from F100 to F150 just forget about reaching into the bed of a 4x4. And the CT falls between the two.
I would rather not beat too much on Ford. They need to survive long enough to get their next generation of EVs from the skunk works out. Hard not to see how the new system on the CT will not make the Ford look worse than it is.
The biggest issue for pedestrian safety is the height. In that respect, many other trucks are much worse. The breakdown of the impact scenario will be very much anticipated.
Sandy's comment on kids loving CT cannot be underestimated! Those little kids today will be the Tesla owners of tomorrow. This vehicle with its simplistic lines speaks directly to them.
I am really looking forward to this series. I bought my Y LR based on all of the videos of you tearing apart the earlier ones. Sandy and my step-dad would have been like brothers, only my version had a British accent. Thanks for the excellent engineering insights and I really enjoy how you present it as well.
Videos from the factory shows the cybertruck frame is regular stamped mild steel with some very large aluminium castings, not as large as the model 3 or y mind you, then the hard stainless steel external panels.Interviews with tesla have also confirmed the internal frame is steel, they didnt specify what grade, but likely its mild with some areas hardened depending whats needs for crash worthiness.
The problem is that few people bother to understand what an exeskeleton is. As I understand it for the purposes of vehicles so long as the skin plays a part in the structure it is an exoskeleton. But forget that. What ELon said is they were going to move some of the weight from the frame to the outside to build a tough truck. They did that. Then they figured out they could reduce the wight of that skin by work hardening the 1.4mm stainless. So unless you goal is to prove Elon lied, not allowed to change, you now know all you need to know about the the exoskeleton issue.
@@Marc83Aus Sort of close. The cabin sides are constructed of ultra high strength hot stamped boron steel. As do BMW and Mercedes Benz. This is where the similarity with a regular unibody or body on frame truck ends. The front and rear castings bolt to the cabin. The casting provide the mounting points for the body, motors, gear reduction and suspension. The aluminum casting have the crush zones engineered into them. No steel needed. A casting gives the designer more control over shape and cross section so works well for this. Tesla has some very good materials science people. They use what is best suited.
No spare tire for a off road vehicle? I really doubt you will find an exo skeleton , that is probably why it was delayed so long . They probably had to scrap the whole idea and redesign it as a typical truck . A 1970’s Chrysler is a lot more exoskeleton than this.
Aesthetics aside, my problem with CYBRTRK has always been that I don't find it to be a particularly practical Ute in terms of work truck usage. Sandy & Jordan's comments reflect this. Having said this, again it's a case of right tool for the right job for the right person - I'm just not that person. I much prefer the Ford Lightening F-150 even if it is (still) far too big; you don't need a tank to get the job done. 😊
I believe this is dimensionally *smaller* than the F150 on the outside. . For a work truck... The bed is 150mm(?) longer. It has the tonneau for security. How about a bed slide-out? Then you instantly get the easy access*plus* the security of everything covered?
exactly! the ford lightning is the best shape or design to ever existed for actual work! look at the toyota hilux, in Thailand they convert the bed to dump truck, upgrades the suspensions and make it move up to 5 tons of rice from the farm to storage.... nothing will ever equal that!
@alanmay7929 The importance of the ability to (easily) side load into the bed of a Ute can't be overlooked. When doing (a lot) of loading, having to walk those extra few steps to and from the back of the bed is both exhausting and a time waster over the course of the day; you can't always back directly into where you want to load from. I really think Jordan can be excused for the challenge as he puts it, 'of being vertically challenged', as tall, short, or anywhere in between, just looking at the high sides of CYBRTRK makes my shoulders and neck ache madly.
The cybertruck has a larger bed, more ground clearance, and more durable body and glass when compared to the f150 lightning. What exactly does the lightning do better?
@pinkelephants1421 side loading gets you in trouble by any respectable tradesmen. You will scratch the paint. If the item is small you put it in the cab or towards the end of the box.
This is a truck that only Americans will think is great. I love the razor sharp edges which I assume are designed for a quick kill in a collision. I cannot believe how anyone thinks it is the truck to be seen in or buy. 😂😂😂
Still have to disagree with Sandy constantly saying this isn't a work truck. That is only currently true due to the price. Being from the trades and talking to other guys who work in the field, I can say that many of them would love to have this as a work truck, where they can easily lock their tools in the back and don't have to worry about scratches and dents.
i strongly disagree with you too, work trucks are made to be super practical and versatile from offering single to double cab to different bed lenghts to different load carying capacity.... the bed can very easily be removed or modified to add equipments, the frame is tougher to mount equipments..... look at the ford f250, f350... they have third wheel option, dually options....
a conventional truck can be have the bed removed to install a dump truck, a crane, utility bed, conversion to ambulance, bus, RV..... the cybertruck is a joke compared to a real truck! i mean even 6x6 conversions are possible with the amazing solid axles... even mercedes Sprinter vans have the ability to mount a crane.
@@jamesengland7461 the point is the fan bois want to claim the Cybertruck is going to replace all trucks everywhere and everyone else will be bankrupt within a few years.
8:00 imagine some magical sensor that'd sense the actual distance to obstacles in the back. Like an artificial bat or a sonar but with air instead of water... 😮
As an owner of an Model 3 with the WORTHLESS, WORTHLESS, WORTHLESS* camera-driven park assist, I appreciate the sarcasm, but doesn't the CyberTruck have a backup camera? * Did I mention worthless?
Midgates are a major structural problem. The Avalanche was body on frame, every other unibody pickup hasn't had a midgate for that very reason... structural rigidity just isn't there, especially if you want a meaningful amount of payload/towing
I don't understand why Sandy thinks its not as good of a work truck as the Ford Lightning. It has basically all the features anf more. Towing range is is slightly less, but other than that, I don't see what the major shortcoming would be.
This is the kind of stuff that's so special to see on TH-cam - thanks for doing it!!
Will we ever get a CYBER-VAN? Will we ever get the submersible tesla promised (at least as an option?) ... Will we ever get the $20000 Tesla with comfy 4 seats, and hatch-back?
(P.S. Protective Wrap should be a factory option for all cars, but in special for the CyberTruck.)

For me, it's crucial to check whether this car has the announced exoskeleton. I'm afraid these flat panels are attached to a regular steel body.
Videos from the factory shows the cybertruck frame is regular stamped mild steel with some very large aluminium castings, not as large as the model 3 or y mind you, then the hard stainless steel external panels.Interviews with tesla have also confirmed the internal frame is steel, they didnt specify what grade, but likely its mild with some areas hardened depending whats needs for crash worthiness.
Yeap, it may have some structurral involment.
The problem is that few people bother to understand what an exeskeleton is. As I understand it for the purposes of vehicles so long as the skin plays a part in the structure it is an exoskeleton. But forget that. What ELon said is they were going to move some of the weight from the frame to the outside to build a tough truck. They did that. Then they figured out they could reduce the wight of that skin by work hardening the 1.4mm stainless. So unless you goal is to prove Elon lied, not allowed to change, you now know all you need to know about the the exoskeleton issue.
@@Marc83Aus Sort of close. The cabin sides are constructed of ultra high strength hot stamped boron steel. As do BMW and Mercedes Benz. This is where the similarity with a regular unibody or body on frame truck ends. The front and rear castings bolt to the cabin. The casting provide the mounting points for the body, motors, gear reduction and suspension. The aluminum casting have the crush zones engineered into them. No steel needed. A casting gives the designer more control over shape and cross section so works well for this.
Tesla has some very good materials science people. They use what is best suited.
@@danharold3087Thank you for the extra details.
No spare tire for a off road vehicle? I really doubt you will find an exo skeleton , that is probably why it was delayed so long . They probably had to scrap the whole idea and redesign it as a typical truck . A 1970’s Chrysler is a lot more exoskeleton than this.
Aesthetics aside, my problem with CYBRTRK has always been that I don't find it to be a particularly practical Ute in terms of work truck usage. Sandy & Jordan's comments reflect this. Having said this, again it's a case of right tool for the right job for the right person - I'm just not that person. I much prefer the Ford Lightening F-150 even if it is (still) far too big; you don't need a tank to get the job done. 😊
I believe this is dimensionally *smaller* than the F150 on the outside.

For a work truck...
The bed is 150mm(?) longer.
It has the tonneau for security.
How about a bed slide-out?
Then you instantly get the easy access*plus* the security of everything covered?
exactly! the ford lightning is the best shape or design to ever existed for actual work! look at the toyota hilux, in Thailand they convert the bed to dump truck, upgrades the suspensions and make it move up to 5 tons of rice from the farm to storage.... nothing will ever equal that!
@alanmay7929 The importance of the ability to (easily) side load into the bed of a Ute can't be overlooked. When doing (a lot) of loading, having to walk those extra few steps to and from the back of the bed is both exhausting and a time waster over the course of the day; you can't always back directly into where you want to load from. I really think Jordan can be excused for the challenge as he puts it, 'of being vertically challenged', as tall, short, or anywhere in between, just looking at the high sides of CYBRTRK makes my shoulders and neck ache madly.
The cybertruck has a larger bed, more ground clearance, and more durable body and glass when compared to the f150 lightning. What exactly does the lightning do better?
@pinkelephants1421 side loading gets you in trouble by any respectable tradesmen. You will scratch the paint. If the item is small you put it in the cab or towards the end of the box.
Very excited to see the cyber truck tear down!
Thanks for doing it Sandy!
Ms. Frizzle brought the magic school bus to see the future
This is a truck that only Americans will think is great. I love the razor sharp edges which I assume are designed for a quick kill in a collision. I cannot believe how anyone thinks it is the truck to be seen in or buy. 😂😂😂
I can hardly wait for the result.
Can‘t wait, love your stuff! This tear down is going to be epic!
Still have to disagree with Sandy constantly saying this isn't a work truck. That is only currently true due to the price. Being from the trades and talking to other guys who work in the field, I can say that many of them would love to have this as a work truck, where they can easily lock their tools in the back and don't have to worry about scratches and dents.
It's not a work truck. One big challenge will be repair. Most work trucks can be repaired at most within a few days.
i strongly disagree with you too, work trucks are made to be super practical and versatile from offering single to double cab to different bed lenghts to different load carying capacity.... the bed can very easily be removed or modified to add equipments, the frame is tougher to mount equipments..... look at the ford f250, f350... they have third wheel option, dually options....
a conventional truck can be have the bed removed to install a dump truck, a crane, utility bed, conversion to ambulance, bus, RV..... the cybertruck is a joke compared to a real truck! i mean even 6x6 conversions are possible with the amazing solid axles... even mercedes Sprinter vans have the ability to mount a crane.
@alanmay7929 nobody does all that to a half- ton pickup, be it F150 or Cybertruck.
@@jamesengland7461 the point is the fan bois want to claim the Cybertruck is going to replace all trucks everywhere and everyone else will be bankrupt within a few years.
This will be awesome. Thank you Sandy for the content. I will be checking everyday for the next video!
8:00 imagine some magical sensor that'd sense the actual distance to obstacles in the back. Like an artificial bat or a sonar but with air instead of water... 😮
As an owner of an Model 3 with the WORTHLESS, WORTHLESS, WORTHLESS* camera-driven park assist, I appreciate the sarcasm, but doesn't the CyberTruck have a backup camera?
* Did I mention worthless?
- see video, Tesla model 3 - 7 point turn , culdesac.
@@Wi2Low - the Driver is using PURE vision & no stalks.
just swipe & turn EZ peezy.
no OTHER can do that.
@@Wi2Low I expect tesla will be intensively working on the CT software for the next year.
Congrats Sandy. You finally got a Cybertruck to take apart. Great content…can’t wait.
Cybertruck actually doesn't have FSD or Autopilot at this time...
No tesla vehicle does, even though elon has been saying it will be ready next year for nearly 10 years. lol
Why did you buy FSD if this truck is getting torn down?
All of these first Foundation Cybertrucks automatically have FSD included.
It's included on Foundation series trucks and that is the only trim available at the moment.
It’s included but not functional nice one Tesla if there self driving system is so great compared to other manufacturers why it not functional ?
Included with Foundation, plus Sandy might use it on his, who knows?
@@V10PDTDI Apples and oranges.
Really looking forward to see what you find.
You guys live streamed this during the Starship launch. I did not see it till after...
I can't wait!! Thanks so much!!
It would have been really great if they had built in a midgate that folds down like an Avalanche.
then CT would NOT be water tight.
CT has scuba system for Battery pack.
Midgates are a major structural problem. The Avalanche was body on frame, every other unibody pickup hasn't had a midgate for that very reason... structural rigidity just isn't there, especially if you want a meaningful amount of payload/towing
@@Black-Villain Didn’t say it would be easy.
@@Black-Villain Agree. At times on does what is best for the design.
Looking forward to the teardown!
I admit this is a young man's truck. I'm too old to drive something that fugly. But my question is whether anything happens when you hit 88mph?
It ejects the trolls at 88.
@@StormyDog I'd better not ride in it then!!!
Congratulations Munro Team. Sure hope you will Take a Time laps videos of the Teardown. Thank you
Good video, btw, Cory was a good guy on the videos, but Jordan is much more relatable, like Sandy, especially as an engineer! Love you guys…
hope this helps pay for it!
Thank you!
Want to bet that windshield wiper costs $300 to replace?
Yes I want to
I doubt it's that much, but it's probably expensive. Just because how unique it is. "Low volume" and large means expensive.
The wiper blade cost from the Tesla part catalog is $75.
the big hat ain't foolin' anybody.
@@tesla_tap don't tell him that....I was gonna bet him. You killed my Action
I can't imagine how excited Sandy must be for this. He's waited yearsss
I don't understand why Sandy thinks its not as good of a work truck as the Ford Lightning. It has basically all the features anf more. Towing range is is slightly less, but other than that, I don't see what the major shortcoming would be.
Still 4ish years until we can buy it in Europe 😎
It'll be a master class in engineering innovation !! Can't wait.
