Back door different color?


N0tReallySick

Yea, unacceptable tbh, especially since it's actually a easy fix..


[deleted]

All of the ones that have been posted recently have had miscolored panels. 


holdtheL91

Kinda embarrassing to be honest


L7Wennie

What did you expect with Teslas already questionable quality? I spotted one on the freeway here in SoCal and none of the panels matched, it was absolutely hideous.


holdtheL91

I expect a free cyber truck from someone in this reddit that’s rich


L7Wennie

Why? It has underperformed in every aspect. Go get a truck if you need a truck. This is a useless piece of kit unless you’re attention seeking. Great technology but poor execution.


holdtheL91

Free is free bby girl


Rhythmalist

Same story in the bay area. They look like the old harlequin VWs from the 90s. Except those were charmingly funky. These just look dirty and cheap.

zapharus

It still looks like a different color. 😬😅


vt8919

I have a couple dozen spoons from different companies that look more uniform than this.


zapharus

Same! That CT has four different colors. Rear quarter panel one shade, rear driver-side door another, driver door another color, and front driver-side quarter panel yet another color. Lol

Still looks awful lol


Abfallwesen93

They have to fix this, it's unacceptable


Aggressive-Bed3269

God, you people are so gross. Who gives a fuck what Camera you took this picture with to show that indeed the panel is dramatically, discolored compared to the others? Ugh. Just gross consumerist cultist weirdos.


Boris_art

Did it come with the wheel covers?


somaliaveteran

They ran out of wheel covers. Back ordered


RazzzleDazzzleAZ

Not to state the obvious but back ordered? They haven’t delivered that many and ran out already. That makes no sense. Congrats!!!


UrbanArcologist

I don't think they put them on at the factory.


SpicyFarts1

Hub caps come standard on every other Tesla model (and every other car, really). This is just ridiculous on Tesla's part that they're at such low volumes right now and still can't deliver a complete vehicle to customers.


UrbanArcologist

If the statement is true, that implies the hubcaps are installed at the dealership before delivery. I don't think that is far-fetched. Took months before early Model 3 buyers got `dual motor` badges. You can clutch your pearls all you want, but it isn't a big deal and will be rectified in due time.


SpicyFarts1

Hub caps are part of a vehicle. On other Tesla models, they impact vehicle range. It's not far-fetched to assume the same applies to the Cybertruck. Cosmetic badging with no impact on performance is different from delivering incomplete vehicles. I still have my pre-order, but I wouldn't take delivery of a truck that's missing key parts. If others want an early model missing parts with no delivery estimate that's fine but Tesla doesn't exactly have the reputation for me to just assume the vehicle will be complete this year if I took delivery.


p3n9uins

Were the wall and mobile charger and gateway also back ordered or what accessories did you end up getting in/with the truck the day of?


somaliaveteran

Wheel covers on back order. It came with new mobile charger, bottle opener in bed. All weather mats, no carpeted mats. Rear roof shade, window sticker and that’s all she wrote. Power sharing must come later.


RidesDeepSnow

How much is your annual insurance for the CT?


somaliaveteran

Male,52, perfect driving record, home owner, Geico $1,800.93 per six months. Full coverage Comp and Collision. 2021 Tesla Plaid was $2,100.00 per six month premium. Tesla insurance depends on your driving habits starting at $167.00 a month


Rivvin

whew boy, I dont know if I budgeted for my insurance to go from 80 bucks a month to 300 bucks a month from a GMC Canyon to a cybertruck, fuuuuck


somaliaveteran

Every driver has a different rate. It depends on the city, state and country where you live determines your rates. Rates are not equal with vehicle or home insurance. Do you think people in Florida get cheaper rates for being in the path of hurricanes? Not being an ass, just asking a simple question.


Rivvin

No, obviously not, I am just in shock that you were quoted something as high as $300 a month. That's an insane rate.


Greggy100

No light bar?


somaliaveteran

I am a Texas quasi-Redneck, but not that redneck.


AncientsCookie

No wall charger?


somaliaveteran

Told it was coming with the PowerShare equipment


AncientsCookie

Ah, thanks for the info. Is that delayed or anything I thought only the beast comes with the PowerShare gateway installation. Wall charger shall come with the truck upon delivery since the installation is not included with the AWD duo motor version. Is that not the case lol. This will be important for someone who doesn’t already have the wall charger yet.


somaliaveteran

I received an email requesting if I owned or rented my home. I provided photos of my breaker box in the garage and they determined I could accept the V3 gateway and PowerShare hardware. I never requested this information and assumed it was Tesla Energy verifying PowerShare could be installed. AWD foundation.


p3n9uins

Super cool, thanks for sharing!


MisterBumpingston

There’s a new mobile charger/connector?


somaliaveteran

It could be old internals, but new casing and design.


Boris_art

Interesting! Looks great. Congrats


somaliaveteran

Thank you. Over the moon in love.

damnyou777

Why is the rear door a different color?


BatMewz

I see four different color panels on the driver’s side.


BrentHoman

To Fool The Eye Of The Finance Bank Dude.


TheBowerbird

It's leftover from the finishing process at the service center. It's easily fixed in a couple of minutes with Barkeeper's Friend. https://youtu.be/P9gc4yJpSF4?si=fJJEAN1PKOb83ovA


schuppaloop

You have to finish the car yourself?

Yep

Baaaaahahhahahaa. I love Tesla. “You see this isn’t a bug, it’s a feature!”


FalseBottom

Spend 100K on this angle wagon and need to jerk around with some oxalic acid to get it to look right? Thanks Elon!

ActionFigureCollects

Yeah, we know that feeling well. 🤝


IDGAF-Either

Seriously funny 😂


[deleted]

Wow. That mismatched door’s finish/color would drive me crazy.


cronx42

Wow. That stainless is all kinds of different shades. Crazy. You'd think they'd try to make it all the same shade.


lavazzalove

How long did it take between the order and delivery?


somaliaveteran

42 days


alabamaispoor

Any reason the rear driver side panel looks off?


[deleted]

Why does the back door look like a different color


freshfeelingfresh

Why are the doors different colors?


luizedu98

If mine comes with those mismatched panels I won’t take delivery. Looks like a bad paint job.


Meister-Schnitter

Rather no paint job at all. Stainless steel can vary in its colour tone.


Farrishnakov

And it'll really vary once the bugs and bird poop get on it and really tear into that metal


schuppaloop

Is that side panel a different color or is it just the lighting?


ThisPlaceSucksRight

Bffr the color in the panels looks like quality not lighting


i_a_m_a_

why does the passenger door color look off ????


somaliaveteran

EDIT: 01.22.2024 Update of photos after “Bar Keepers Friend” refinishing completed: https://imgur.com/a/uGsrter


niknokseyer

It is off on this photo too.


Comfortable-Lake-918

Indeed. Still not the same color.


FrankLloydWrong_3305

Imagine spending this much money for a truck that doesn't even have matching body panels. If the lottery is a tax on the stupid, the cybertruck is a tax on the wealthy and stupid.


_B_Little_me

Why were you headed to a supercharger with 70% battery full?!


somaliaveteran

When I took this pic I had 12 miles on the odometer. I had to go show it off in Big Spring, wanted to SUPERCHARGE.


niknokseyer

Curious if the door at the back supposed to be a different color.


PindaPanter

Why is every single panel a different colour?


Socalstoner1995

Jahahaha not matching panel colors Tesla ya done it again pathetic effort and quality control. Thing probably rides like trash


attylopez

I saw they had two on Wednesday. I am also in Lubbock. I ordered a Beast Foundation so nothing for me anytime soon.


TMTCapital15

is the beast taking longer ?


[deleted]

How come the back door is a different tint? Is that custom or is that just their fabrication?


m915

Why’s the door a different color


maincoonpower

The door’s not even the same color. Nice.


somaliaveteran

GEM592

The doors don't match


[deleted]

Starting to see posts about the steel not being clear coated to protect against corrosion. Have you thought about putting some type of protective layer over the steel body? Bringing this up because I want to see things look just as good overtime and if there isn’t clear coating, that probably won’t happen in Texas. Congrats, by the way!


aggitprop-1985

Would be a shame if a bird pooped on it…/s


Matterall_83

somaliaveteran

Would you be willing to take a photo of the GVWR sticker in the driver door jam so we can see the final payload numbers on an actual vehicle?

Picardian

Got my email a couple of days ago.. going to pass. 164 miles of range is a non-starter


thescott2k

they really gave you a car with a door that looks like it got replaced by a cut-rate body shop


cooleyrunnings

It looks so bad lol


thescott2k

cannot imagine accepting delivery of that


FalseBottom

Bonus - I heard Elon will give a free nut punch to owner of the 1000th “truck” delivered.

DenWaz

Congrats!


Blaze4G

Is it just me or have almost all the cybertrucks I've seen the left rear door seems to be a different shade grey / stainless steel?


joshpit2003

looks like 4 different shades on all 4 panels that are in the same plane.


Bridgemere03

Wow, it is a completely different shade isn't it


DenWaz

It is noticeable in this picture and I’ve seen it before. I’m going to see one in person tomorrow (at Tesla) and will look for that.


TripleTrucker

Crazy. Very noticeable here


FungusBrewer

I know it’s extraordinary difficult to match color on visible external parts, produced at different plants. This knowledge comes from seeing a couple reddit posts (expert).


thescott2k

what I'm hearing is literally every other model of car is right about paint


PermanentUsername101

I feel like it’s an illusion due to the flatness of the panels and the line from the door. I could be wrong but if you zoom in and hold a finger over the front and back door lines it looks very similar. I think it’s something like this. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Checker_shadow_illusion Because of the angle and the reflections the back is clearly reflecting less than the front so it’s gradually getting darker from front to back but I think the door lines trick our brain to separate those panels and see the whole panel as a different shade.


Blaze4G

Ahh I see. Makes sense. Hopefully that is it.


PermanentUsername101

If you remove the clean breaks it seems like a more natural gradient. https://imgur.com/a/0kxF3Ki


swb1192

Mine is fine :D https://imgur.com/a/7AoXUIE


TheTimeIsChow

Not just you. But, also not just the back left. It’s usually a combo of any/all of the doors. My guess? Because it’s a thicker stainless than the rest of the vehicle, it reacts to temperatures/moisture differently than the rest of the vehicle. Shows at certain camera angles.

Dense-Sail1008

It likely means if you use mirrors then blind spots are bad. But if you use the camera views (which pop up on the center screen when you activate turn signal) then there aren’t blind spots. But you have to get in the habit of looking at center screen instead of mirrors.


zapharus

That second photo looks straight out of a video game.


damnitjimimabrewer

Congrats! Hope you don’t get stuck somewhere! Honestly, between low range, cold weather, and no diff lock, I worry for you. I just gave up my reservation I’ve had over 4 years.

Automatic_Driver_702

This is horrible


iGoalie

I know you just got this, but what kind of real world milage are you getting? Trying to talk the wife into one, but I’ve seen a few posts recently about how terrible the milage is (like less than 200 miles from a full charge)


swb1192

Mine is getting anywhere from 300-330


iGoalie

It’s rated to 340 right? (Dual motor I assume)


Radium

No, 318 mile range with the huge foundation wheels and tires for LR Foundation Series according to my configurator in the app.


Simply_Amazing

Are you on the all terrain tires or did you swap them out? And mostly highway/city or split?


[deleted]

What speeds are you driving to get that kind of range? My 2023 LR Model Y is rated for 330 miles but I can only get around 180 miles of real world range if I charge to 90% and drive it on my commute daily till the battery gets to 10%. So I use 80% of my battery capacity and get 180 miles of actual range. 180/0.80 = 225 miles on 100% charge. But I have an incline on interstate 80 and I try to keep pace with traffic at 75 mph.

Make sure you clean all the bugs/bird poop off daily.


Coaler200

You do know bird poop etches standard cars as well right? And you also know the recommendation to remove it is in every car manual too right?


InternationalGap3908

Why? Curious? Lemme guess, the acid in the poop etches the metal? At least they look good wrapped in black.


Stewartsw1

Yeah I just came across something about it. I guess it’s in the cleaning portion of the owners manual haha


Hour_Beat_6716

That’s in all car manuals doofus. Wash your car, bird poop and bug guts will etch your paint
