The Tesla Cybertruck unveiling event came and went and all I have to show for it was a one-on-one with Elon Musk and a test drive of the Cybertruck. How did you spend your Thursday night?
Yes the event was that amazing. Not only did I get to meet one of the true visionaries of our time and real life Tony Stark, I also got to tell him about this little thing called Voltly.co and the projects we have coming down the pipe. Also the legendary Stevie Wander graced us with his presence and I was immediately whisked back to my childhood when my dad would sing “Isn’t She Lovely” around the house to my mom. That was just the first half of my night at the Tesla Cybertruck event. Also in attendance were Kimbal Musk (Elon’s brother and yes he was wearing a cowboy hat) and amazing Maye Musk (Elon’s Mother).
The second half of my evening involved getting up close and personal with the Cybertruck. I even got to take it for a spin around the block with some friends, and then chase it down the block with my Model X. So despite what anyone says about the Cybetruck event, I for one had a Wander-ful time…get it, and I’ve got the receipts to prove it.


Like many of his revolutionary creations, Cybertruck started off as a casual comment by Elon Musk in 2012 when he mused about wanting to build a truck. We should all know by now to take Musk at his word from Reusable Rockets to Hyperloop and every Tesla Tequila and Flamethrower in-between, Musk has shown us time and time again that he’s not just an ideas guy. Tesla’s first production pickup truck is simply keeping up with that vision.
Let’s start with the basic stuff. The Cybertruck is 231.7 inches long, 79.8 inches wide and 75 inches tall, with seating for six. Let’s compare that to the Ford F-150, which measures between 209 and 250 inches long, 80 and 86 inches wide and between 75 and 78.5 inches tall. That puts it in pretty much the same company as every other pickup out there.
The ATV
At the Cybertruck’s premiere on Thursday, Musk also showed off this sick ATV designed to fit perfectly in the bed of the Cybertruck and also charge while on the Cybertruck bed. Here are some shots complete with steampunky mood lighting.




If you watched the livestream or read any articles about the Cybertruck, you probably heard about what I’m calling Glass-Gate. This was when Must tried to demonstrate the bulletproof windows of the Cybertruck by having Franz throw a metal ball at it and let’s just say things didn’t go as planned.


However in true muck fashion, not being one to dwell on a minor setback, a team was quickly dispatched to grab some replacement windows and I was able to catch the tail end of that in the video below.
Whatever you think of Musk and Tesla Motors, you can’t deny the fact that the world as we know it today is a letter better off with Elon and the future is bright as SpaceX leads us to Mars and beyond.
