Q: What the heck is a Cost Grind?
A: Revisiting every part and finding the places to reduce cost with design efficiency, supply chain improvements, and manufacturing simplification

Sorry Sandy Munro to beat you to the tear down review, I guess we'll have to compare notes

2 weeks from discovery to deploying a resolution, and actively pursuing it.

According to the NHTSA doc, there were TWO pedals that did it. And Tesla is truly kicking ass to take care of this!

Bravo @Cybertruck team. Safety!

Service documentation is available to anyone, very handy for DIY work. Cool to see the on-board 240V was used to power a welder for the door patch.

Our in-house seats team is awesome. The new ModelS Sport seats are so comfy yet perfectly sporty AND heated/cooled. The team made a custom set for Cybertruck Baja test trip and they were so good. A keen eye may have noticed these on display at the launch event.
