Kirby Arnold owns classic trucks and muscle cars. And now a Cybertruck. He shares his early adventures.
I’m analog in a digital landscape; carburetion in a fuel-injected world. The Costco gas pumps love me because my collection includes a 1969 Mustang, 1967 F-100, 1977 F-250, 1966 F-100 in the middle of a restomod, and, stepping boldly into Y2K, a 2003 Corvette coupe.Like my kids, I won’t pick a favorite. The Vette accelerates, brakes and corners like a performance car should yet glides comfortably over the back roads.
Technically, he and my wife are owners because his name was on the reservation and Tesla wouldn’t allow more than one other name on the registration. But it’s in my garage, I’ve been driving it, and here are some thoughts after 350 miles: You can order a pizza and know what stage of creation and delivery it’s in. I had a vehicle shipped from Arizona to Seattle a few weeks ago and knew its location throughout the journey, including a stop south of Vegas when the driver took a leak. And yet, one of the most technologically advanced companies in the world was having difficulty tracking where our Cybertruck was during the build/transport/delivery process.
And the rest of the controls – heat and air, suspension and performance settings, audio, video, and a whole lot more – are in the touchscreen. I’m not technologically ignorant, but it took a few days to get comfortable with the basics, and I’m learning something new with each drive. The ride in “chill mode” is ultra smooth. It glides over the open road and handles bumps and potholes like they were small ripples in the road. My wife has pain issues and needs cushions on her seat to soften the bumps and vibrations that can make her feel miserable. Yet, during our first weekend with the Cybertruck, she felt fine after riding on freeways as well as curvy, bumpy roads. The suspension is that good; the seats that supportive and comfortable.
