Is there a trunk release incase someone is inside with the tonneau and tail gate closed?

I just don't get the eternal Robotaxi optimism. Auto park, summon doesn't even work. I just don't get why anyone would think Tesla will be able to produce a car that can function autonomously. FSD is no where near close to ready for complete unsupervised use. Something a true robotaxi as Elon...

You are joking right? Sandy M has discussed this extensively. He predicts it will be like when the Japanese came to US markets years ago. Their cars are good, better than the crap coming from Volkswagen, Stellantis and all US manufacturers except Tesla. They are not anything like Fisker. They...

I called ford customer service after seeing a ton of adapter review posts on the Lightning forums. Was told they haven’t started shipping yet. The ones reviewed on the forums are after market adapters. Supposedly more robust design than the Tesla version. Not sure how they would know if Tesla...

I'm not a CT fan but hate the negativity. You're so right about this. I posted on the CT forum that I had surface rust spots on my new 2012 Tundra. It was on the paint! Easily buffed out. I had never seen anything like it but the detailer buffed it out and showed me it was surface particles. It...

So why is everyone’s talking about stamped panels? They have to be cut and bent to form.

Boy talk about confusing. What happened to all the talk about how ss is too hard to stamp and would require bending? That was supposedly steered the overall angular design. Couldn’t stamp it.

Yea great for each project’s progress but nothing listed has any type positive affect on sp. It’s actually down a buck or so at this writing. I’m in the shark tank Mr. Wonderful world. How does this make me $? Tired of the long term claims. Kinda like FSD.

Did anyone post a link to Sandy M.’s minor accident backing his CT up? He bemoaned the loss of the interior rear view mirror and the really poor visibility when the tonneau is closed. Stated using the side mirrors alone just doesn’t work and thats why he backed the truck into something. This is...

She has not been right on Telsa for years. Amazing she is still followed.

Could be that it’s in your home location. Wonder if it would work in a neighbors garage.

That seems so strange. I had the opposite experience when an oncoming driver crossed the line. My 2021 MS actually steered toward the curb to avoid a collision. I took over too quickly to see how far it would have gone. And didn’t honk the horn to get a recording of what just happened. Clearly...

Great point, rear doors become traps for anyone if a rear child lock is engaged and you don't know how to bypass. Never really thought about it before electric locks. Now I wonder how my 2012 Tundra rear locks worked.

OMG that is the stupidest design ever. I've owned three MS's since 2012, tons of hrs vacuuming rear seats and never notice these cutouts. Not the most intuitive design and pretty sure Tesla would lose any lawsuit involving it. It's not obvious enough when life threatening under pressure. You...

I've never been in a car submerging. Wonder how deep it has to go before the outside pressure would prevent opening the door manual or electric. My 2021 MS Plaid has both electric and manual door opening ability on the front but only electric on the rear doors. The wife saw something about her...
