@ThatShadyVandal I agree, If you wanna work on lets say a deer stand but only wanna put it together close to the woods so you dont have to haul it on a big trailer the F-150 has a built in generator to power your tools as with the cybertruck you would have to bring a generator or use weak battery powered ones.
actually I am wrong about that
the cyertruck has a built in generator and air compressor\
I'm speaking more from a DIY-ability and parts availability more than anything else
Longevity, too
Most of the trucks I see out in the country are from the 90s, some of em are even from as far back as the 60s or the 70s
I live in the country and some people have old trucks but most of them are newer
I will concede, the rural areas I've been to are only a few places in Cali
But in the places I have been to, that's what I've noticed
Ah I live in Louisiana
It's weird out here, there's not that much infrastructure in the rural parts of Cali
The small towns don't have hardly anything
So out here, it's probably circumstantial because you can't just take your 6.7 powerstroke to the local diesel mechanic, because there isn't one
Personally I wouldnt get a cyber truck cause on the F150 has built in pencil holders, ruler, places to clamp things down without damaging the tailgate. It is nice that the cybertruck has a built in air compressor but it is rare that your gonna have to use a nail gun or something like that and if you do you can bring a little one.
The real reason for onboard air is because you deflate your tires for offroading
yea but you can buy a little portable one
And most trucks nowadays have an inverter with a 110 receptacle in them
Yea true
The real question is does it have the ability to back up your boat into the water or back you up to a trailer.
It probably will, Tesla likes to load their vehicles up with technology
Gonna be honest, I didn't know that
For being a gearhead, I don't pay much attention to the new stuff
Anyways Bat, that's just my .02 on the cybertruck
I think it's gonna achieve commercial success but I think it'll take a while before it gets adopted beyond cities or suburban areas
That’s called two foot braking. It’s a cornering technique. It’s mostly used by FF drivers who are former cart racers. The idea is that most of the time you brake before cornering and coast through the turn unit it’s time to step on the gas. By being on the gas while still being in the corner it can have a weight transfer that favors FF vehicles and as soon as the brake is released it will have better acceleration out of the corner.
Also used by the elderly. I dare say used MORE by the elderly
I personally heel and toe for this technique.
I have a good foot so I can tilt my toes on the brake and have my heel over the gas pedal.
Hence... the elderly comment 👆
The thing is I have a automatic transmission so I don’t really have any need to do this in day to day driving with a time capsule.
I just rock my foot back and forth on the heel seamlessly sliding from pushing one pedal to the other...
Still gotta be gentle with the automatic.

If I wasn't a corvette guy, I'd have bought a chevelle
I wish I had a chevelle
You can get whatever you want, if you're willing to work hard enough to get it
Yea that was the point before my injury
