    I hope they are thinking about us geeks.

    I really want to put a Ham 2way radio in my Cybertruck when I finally get it.

    I hope they think about antenna mounts and making 12V power available.

    steel can be welded quickly and structurally, and then cut off and buffed out.
    I’m imagining a lot of Cheap/quick lightweight off-roading solutions and mounting benefits to
    Attaching things directly to the vehicle by hiring a certified welder to do good work if you don’t think you can!
    maybe even electro magnets powered by the cyber truck itself to
    Hold things to the body, like shovels.
    Good luck! ❤️

    I am also a ham, I think that getting a wire for antenna out to the bed from the cab should be pretty easy, there is surely a grommet somewhere for brake light and trailer wiring, once you get into the sails finding a good place to come through shouldn't be too much of a challenge. Drilling might pose a bit of an extra challenge but I have every bit of faith that I will find a way to get it done. If Tesla expects to sell them as work trucks they probably have already thought about it and started the standard documentation that roads crews, police, construction crews, park rangers, etc will need to give their radio outfitters for the UHF radios they use.
