Many of us, when we buy a new car, probably want to change a thing or two about it. It’s only natural. No car is perfect, and we can always find something that we’d perhaps change, but one man found that very quickly with his new Tesla Cybertruck.
YouTuber DMJR AUTO recently bought the Tesla EV and was quite excited to see what it was like. However, he had only driven the car for around 24 hours before he found quite a few things that he wanted to change about the EV.
It didn’t take long for the YouTuber to realize that there was a lot he wanted to change on the car. That included everything from the stainless-steel body of the pickup truck to the huge amount of glass that the Cybertruck uses. It was impressive how quickly he decided he wanted these things to change.
He also found that one of those decisions was pretty expensive. We never want to spend a crazy amount of money changing something on a brand-new car; however, this YouTuber seemed happy to do that to get the EV more to his liking.
What Did the YouTuber Want To Change With the Tesla?
YouTuber DMJR AUTO discussed various things about the Tesla in his video. The first of which was an issue he had with the body of the truck. Specifically, the stainless-steel structure of the truck showed every possible mark. Fingerprints and watermarks show up incredibly easily, as do any little nicks left over by road debris.
For that reason, the YouTuber could understand why so many people wrapped their Cybertrucks so quickly. Tire shine applied by the dealership had also splashed onto the side of the truck, leaving nasty marks that looked like they had aged the electric pickup. So this YouTuber decided to do something about it.
His solution was to get the EV wrapped. Specifically, he had decided to get the pickup truck wrapped in matte black, which certainly added an extra layer of aggression to the design. Wraps can cost several thousand dollars, however, so that is something important to factor in if you do the same.
The YouTuber also noticed some issues with the huge glass roof and windows, and how that could affect the cabin temperature. In fact, it seemed to really bug DMJR AUTO.
The Cybertruck’s Cabin Can Get Quite Hot
As the owner lives in Florida, temperatures can reach around 95 degrees Fahrenheit. His Cybertruck was configured via the Tesla app to cool the cabin down if it got too hot. But he noticed that when it was sitting in his driveway, the air conditioning had come on, causing the battery capacity to drop from 80 to 77 percent. A window tint is one of the modifications lined up for this truck, to keep some of the heat and UV rays out of the cabin of the Tesla.
There were a few more minor things he noticed, most notably scratches on the wheels after the factory hubcaps had been removed. But the most expensive thing he changed by far was the wrap, which could cost thousands of dollars depending on where the wrap is applied.
You have to admit it is impressive to point out so many things you’d want to change on a new car, just 24 hours or so after you had bought it. But overall, the YouTuber is still quite happy to now own a Tesla Cybertruck.
