Magsafe Dashboard Charging Mounts 

Fit on the AC VENT

Being able to mount and Fast Charge my iPhone 17 Pro Max is essential in my CyberTruck. This mounting system in superb as it allows you to instantly rotate your smartphone from portrait to landscape easily and instantly. In landscape it's great for being able to watch YouTube video (not while driving ;-)

In portrait it's remarkable how useful and easy it is to use your iPhone like it's in your hand. (Once again, I don't NOT recommend you use it while you are driving ;-).

I experimented like crazy for many hours and came up with an amazing solution that is relatively inexpensive, but requires some simple knowledge of who to put everything together, which I cover in this section. This solution is very elegant and requires no glue and leaves no residue. This mounting system is injection molded and NOT 3-D printed.

The parts needed are: 

-Buy Special Magnetic CyberTruck Phone Mount

The mount linked above is AMAZING and only costs around $12 on Amazon. Later on in this article, I will go over the easiest way to install it.

The image below shows what my wireless Magsafe fast charging solution looks like when you look at it from the front view.

I was initially concerned about how my solution would look aesthetically. I was not only concerned about the exposed pigtail cabling, as seen in the picture below, but also concerned about how the Anker wireless puck would look, but it's a non-issue as I never even notice it. The reason I strategically place the passenger side wireless charger on the far right side is it make it easy to hide the rest of the cable, which tucks away on the side of the dash to it's not visible. I am usually the driver in my CyberTruck, but on the rare occasions I am a passenger, I find this wireless charing solution and mount to be amazing. Particularly as you can use your phone easily for navigating around your phone UI while it's mounted.

Advice: There are other similar mounts to this one, which I tried and they were complete junk, so be certain to only purchase this model, which ironically is way less expensive that other models. Keep in mind, this is just a magnetic mount and will hold your Magsafe or Qi2 compatible phone in portrait or landscape, but will NOT charge it. If you want to add wireless charging, which make a great deal of sense, you will need the following parts:

----------------

-Anker Zolo Magnetic Magsafe Charger, with USB-C cable. Qi2 Certified wireless charing Pad for iPhone 17/16/15/14/13 Series. These come standard in a two pack, so you can mount one on the drivers side and one on the passengers side of your CyberTruck, which I highly recommend.

----------------

-OBD to USB-C Adapter. This is required to be able to plug your Anker Zolo Magsafe Charger in via USB-C.

The CyberTruck has an OBD port located under the left side of the drivers side dash, which you can seen in the image below. We will be plugging the drivers side wireless charger into this adapter, and despite the fact there is a USB-A female as well pictured above in the adapter I recommended, I think you are better off NOT using it for plugging in the passenger side charger, as the USB-C cable on the Anker charger is not long enough to reach this area, and also, if it were to fall down it could wreak havoc in the passenger cabin. So I you want to also install a second wireless charger, as I did, you are better off routing it back to plug it in to the rear center console USB-C female plug.

----------------

-Right Angle USB-C Extension Cable 6.6 feet long for plugging in passenger side wireless Magsafe mount. I recommend if you want to add a passenger side wireless charging mount to plug it in, via USB-C to the back of the center console, but running in under the front passenger seat floor matt, which is very easy to do. The adapter needed is pictured below.

The image below shows this special right-angle USB-C male adapter plugged in to the center console in the back seat of the CyberTruck. Basically, I routed it down the right side of the front dashboard by tucking it into the seam, then ran it down, under the front passenger floor matt, under the seat, and out the back as seen below.

----------------

-VHB Tape Kit. This will be used to semi-permanently attach the Anker Qi2 fast 15W wireless charger to the CyberTruck Phone Mount.

How To Clean A CyberTruck in 15 minutes for under $5

How To Clean A CyberTruck in 15 minutes for under $5?

The title above was from the second video below, and in my experience I would say a more accurate title would be, "How to perfectly clean a CyberTruck exterior in 45 Minutes for under $2".

UPDATE: I was so fascinated by the videos below, I went to Walmart and purchased cans of Sprayway Glass Cleaner with Foaming Action for $2.48 per spray bottle. BTW: I also found them in a 4-pack at Home Depot for $7.26, which is only $1.82 per bottle!?!!

I used a total of 6 clean Costco microfiber towels, and one entire spray bottle of Sprayway. It did an amazing job, and made the CyberTruck look brand spanking new!!!! This was after having not washed it for a month. All in, it took about 45 minutes, and it started raining just as I finished up. After I got done dialing in cleaning all the stainless panels and windows, I took the saturated Costco microfiber towels, and used them to wipe down the door sits and Core Wheel Hubcaps and tires, which also looked great.

So the bottom line, is that for $2.50, and 6 Clean Microfiber towels, and 40 minutes of time I was able to perfectly able to clean my CyberTruck and make it look perfect—like it was detailed. The coolest aspect is I didn't have to mix anything, or use sponges or buckets, or clean up afterwards. My CyberTruck was pretty dirty when I started out, and in the future I will experiment more with this brilliant method, and update this article accordingly.

Another great takeaway for me personally is how amazingly simple a CyberTruck is to clean. Especially the wheels and tires, as the core wheel covers get wiped down and perfectly cleaned in less than 30 seconds, as you don't have to use a wheel brush, and you don't have to worry about curb rash either, since the covers are made out of a rubbery ABS plastic that completely covers the edge of the wheels, leaving them unexposed.

For the record, a few days after I took delivery I tried cleaning my CyberTruck with Windex after noticing a comment on a CyberTruck forum from somebody saying they liked how good of job it did. I tried using the Windex, but noticed it left some streaking, which the Sprayway did NOT.

The Sprayway cleaned it all perfectly. Not just the windows and stainless, but the black plastic wheel wells and bumpers. I used a total of 6 Costco microfiber towels, and the method I came up with was I would first do a deep clean with towel, then once it got saturated, and had materially cleaned a section, then I would go back over it with a new clean towel, which would not get that saturated. Then I would take that still pretty clean towel I had used to polish the finish, and then spray a new section and get it wet. Once a towel reach a saturation point, I would open the doors, and use it on the door sills, and then on the dirty tires and wheels.

I have been obsessed for a while about trying to figure out the best method for being able to clean a Tesla as quickly as possible, and naturally I came across the product named Rubbit, which I thought was interesting, but I didn't purchase or try it, but when I thought about it, I realized that the Sprayway CyberTruck cleaning method is was essentially exactly like the Rubbit, but:

-I didn’t have to purchase $150 worth of product.

-I didn’t have to charge up a USB-C sprayer, or worry if it was charged.

-I didn’t have to measure solution and mix it with water.

-It cost me $2.48 for one spray can of Sprayway, which covered the entire vehicle.

Rubbit Foam 2.0 costs $45 for a bottle that can cover up to 25 washes, which works out to about $2 per wash, but if you amortize the cost of the sprayer, probably ends up being closer to $4-5 per wash.

Now I am all curious about what would happen if I use Sprayway on a Tesla with paint? I will research it to see if it's safe, and if so, will tryin it out, and write a review of that experience.

I think in my quest to find the absolute simplest, easiest, most hassle free method to clean a vehicle, and certainly a CyberTruck, the Sprayway method seems like it must be the absolute winner. Also, it strikes me that when you go on a long drive Sprayway would also be great as you can keep a can in the subtrunk, under the bed, with some clean Costco microfiber towels, and just clean the front of the CyberTruck, or the whole thing if time and weather permit, when you are at a Supercharger. Speaking of Costco microfiber towels, they sell a 36 pack of them for around $20. The big advantage to using Costco microfiber towels, is you don't have to purchase a bunch of expensive big microfiber towels that you have to baby so you don't damage them.

Update #2: October 31, 2025:

I did some more research and realized that Costco sells a proprietary version of Sprayway Glass Cleaner, which is $8.59 for 4 Spray Cans, which works out to around $2.15 per canister, but the Costco version is 23 Ounces as apposed to the standard 19 ounces that everybody else sells. 

This is significant, as when I used the 19 ounce version not only did I end up using an entire spray can, but at the end the spray can ran out, and I was thinking to myself, if it just had a few more ounces, it would be perfect. So while the Home Depot version might be a little bit less expensive @ $1.85, I would rather have 23 ounces, which should be more the perfect amount to thourogphly lean an entire CyberTruck, including the rims, tires and windows.

--------------Original Article Below-------------

I just watched this video, and it blew my mind. I plan to try it out, and will publish my results once I have had the chance to experiment with this product. When I had a Model S, I was always preoccupied with the paint, not only cleaning it all the time, but was always freaked out about the paint getting scratched, as well as door dings. With the CyberTruck, that is not an issue at all, and since the CyberTruck is silver, or grey, it's essentially the color of dust, so it stays far cleaner looking than any other color. 

My Model S was blue, which was beautiful, but it was a magnet for dust, and dirt. Chris Rock, famously once quipped, when it comes to women, there are women that are high maintenance and low maintenance. I say, keep them both away from me. What I want is NO MAINTENANCE!!!! And that's the greatest takeaway when it comes to the way it looks. It's a truck, and thus I don't really care what it looks like...

CyberTruck Mesh Cargo Net Review

 

CyberTruck Mesh Cargo Net Review  

This cargo net is what I would consider to be an absolute essential accessory for the CyberTruck bed. As you can see it connects to the L-Track and stops items like groceries from sliding around in the CyberTruck Bed. Below is an Amazon affiliate link to purchase this product, and if you do so, I make a small commission. 

I installed this cargo net as far back on the L-Track as possible, which worked out great, as you can still place additional products in front of it, once you fill it up, as pictured below on a Costco run.

Another cool feature worth pointing out, is that you can easily access the sub trunk without having to remove or move this amazing cargo net as it is flexible and just moves out of the way when you open the sub trunk door as pictured below. 

More Cheap 'Diet' Tesla Models: I am NOT a Fan

 

More Cheap 'Diet' Tesla Models

I am NOT a Fan

Great things happen when you push the envelope. 

Mediocrity sets in when you stay in your comfort zone.

Tesla just released the new "Diet" Model Y and Model 3, and I am NOT impressed. I think Tesla trying to move downmarket is a big mistake as these stripped down models lose their mojo. It's like John Travolta once said "If you are going to have a chocolate chip cookie, have a chocolate chip cookie." Nobody wants a diet chocolate chip cookie with 3 chocolate chips. 

Ironically, the new cheap seat underwhelming Model Y also lacks Autopilot as a standard feature, which has everybody scratching their heads, as this makes zero sense. I mean this model is completely stripped own and lacks even power folding mirrors, and they even removed the power seat controls from the seat side, and now require the user to go into a screen menu setting to move the seats. 

This new Model Y is super slow doing 0-60MPH in 6.8 seconds, which is horrendously slow for a Tesla, let alone any electric vehicle!?!! This poor performance unfortunately puts the overall acceleration way out of the ideal Goldilocks zone, thus making it more than twice as slow as the Performance Model Y, which does 0-60MPH in only 3.3 seconds, which is impressive!!!

Tesla also removed the standard dual pane windows and replaced them with single pane, and despite keeping the glass roof, strangely covered it with a headliner.

I recently wrote in detail about how stupid the stripped down 2WD CyberTruck was that Tesla released, only to discontinue it almost immediately afterward as nobody purchased them. 

For the record, when Tesla decided to make a stripped down CyberTruck that nobody wanted or purchased, it cost a lot of R&D money to make all the custom changes, like the super goofy new tonneau cover, which ended up being a complete waste of precious time and resources for Tesla.

In my opinion, these stripped down models are just another pathetic cash-grab from Tesla, which is very short sighted. I recall the Porsche 912, which was a 4 cylinder 911, that didn't last long either, and that's for a reason.

With the watered down 2WD CyberTruck, Tesla was like, "Hey, we lowered the price by $10K!!!!" and I was like, "Yeah, but you removed $20K worth of cool features!?!!" 

Same thing here. Tesla lowered the price by $5k, and easily removed $10K worth of features. All I see here is "Cash Grab, Cash Grab, Cash Grab!!!!" and I don't like this cheap strategy. In the early days of Tesla, they would include all these extra features and accessories, like including a charging cable, which they now charge separately for. 

They even used to include a free electric kids Tesla with the purchase of a Model S or Model Y, but not anymore. Now they charge for EVERYTHING, which is fine so long as they are not charging to take away useful features, which is the case with the new stripped down Model Y and Model 3. I did predict immediately that Tesla would discontinue the stripped down 2WD CyberTruck, and I was right, as they did. 

Do I think they are going to discontinue these stripped down new Model Y and Model 3 vehicles? It's hard to say, but I think they will definitely lower the price on them soon. For instance, the new Standard RWD Model Y, now starts at $39,990, and I would not be surprised within 4 months from its introduction (in Q1 of 2026) the price gets dropped down $10K to $29,990.

On a positive note, I will say I like the aesthetic of the new Model Y better which lacks the CyberTruck-like lightbar. I think removing the lightbar gives it a cleaner, more minimalist look and vibe. On a negative note, cloth seats, YUUUUUUUUCK!!!! In my opinion, as a designer, I think Tesla should focus its energy on adding valuable features, not taking them away. Tesla is great at making cars that surprise and delight and inspire and push the envelope. Vehicles that people aspire to own. Not uninspiring mediocre crap cars. 

If I had to sum up these new models in one word, I would say "Booooooooring!?!!" Tesla should only seek to surprise and delight, not to deliver ultra boring and uninspiring vehicles that are stripped down. These new models offer features nobody is asking for or wants. Tesla should focus all of its energy on innovating and raising the bar, not on going backwards, by seriously dumbing down their vehicles.
