The Tesla Cybertruck has attracted yet another crazy third-party modification from company Space Campers, which developed a “wedge-style” camper perfect for the great outdoors.

Built from aerospace-grade composites, Space Campers developed the wedge design to last a lifetime, with all of the most appropriate accessories for a weekend in the wild. The Space Campers’ new mod integrates with the Cybertruck for full access to the pickup’s bed, without sacrificing any aerodynamic advantages and maintaining the vehicle’s sleek design. It’s equipped with electrical outlets, dimmable lights, an induction cooktop, a portable cooler, and a water heater, among other accessories, all of which are compatible with the Cybertruck’s battery pack.

It even equips a Murphy-style bed that not only maintains interior space but also allows owners to tuck themselves in for a great night of sleep. It won’t be your normal night in a tent, that’s for sure. The bed is big enough for two people and tucks away to create sufficient standing room, and it even features detachable hinges to become an exterior table. Extensions can be installed to create benches or work surfaces, and an awning that is built into the design protects the wedge from severe weather while maintaining an open space to admire nature.

“Pull up anywhere and set up camp in minutes. With a flip of a switch, air-powered actuators use the Cybertruck’s onboard compressor to open or retract the camper with ease. It’s ready to go when you are, be it a trip down the coast or a lunchtime siesta.”

The Space Campers wedge designed for the Cybertruck will also allow for limitless personalization with plug-and-play accessory kits that can be installed at any point with normal household tools, the company said in a press release for the product. Replacement parts will be available online for straightforward repairs, given something goes wrong.

Your Space Camper for Cybertruck will include:

  • All seasons tent with windows and awning conversion
  • Telescoping awning poles for awning configuration
  • Telescoping lockout bars for failsafe roof support
  • Manual flip up backrest on bed
  • Sidewall cubbies for storage and organization
  • Integrated steps for easy bed access (on each side)
  • Over cab storage cubbies (upgradeable to kitchenette and sink via accessory kits)
  • Interior and exterior dimmable LED lights
  • Independently dimmable detachable reading lights
  • Keyless locking mechanism for advanced security
  • Air actuated detachable murphy bed platform
  • 4” memory foam mattress
  • 120V outlets, USB, and 12V/24V
  • L-track roof runners
  • Multifunctional bed extensions (qty.2) that double as tables and benches
  • Foam insulation throughout construction to eliminate condensation
  • Integrated steps to roof (on each side)

It is not the first Cybertruck camping mod on the market, as the Cyberlandr and Loki Basecamp both hit the market shortly after the Tesla pickup’s unveiling in late 2019.

On the Shoulder of Giants: How the Tesla Cybertruck’s ambitious camper is willing itself into being

The Space Camper wedge for the Cybertruck will be available when the pickup rolls out early next year, according to Tesla’s estimates. Pre-orders are already being accepted at SpaceCampers.com, with early reservations securing priority fulfillment. It costs as little as $100 down, and the pre-sale price is currently listed at $24,000 before upgrades, which are currently limited to Stainless Steel Armor “for durability and heat shielding.”

Other accessories sold separately will include a Camp Kitchen, Shower and Bathroom Accessories, Roof and Solar Accessories, and Insulation and Comfort Accessories. The company said it has plenty of additional ideas in the think tank and will be available for purchase and free installation in the future.

Tesla to increase Full Self-Driving subscription price: here’s when

Tesla will increase its Full Self-Driving subscription price, meaning it will eventually be more than the current $99 per month price tag it has right now.

Already stating that the ability to purchase the suite outright will be removed, Tesla CEO Elon Musk said earlier this week that the Full Self-Driving subscription price would increase when its capabilities improve:

“I should also mention that the $99/month for supervised FSD will rise as FSD’s capabilities improve. The massive value jump is when you can be on your phone or sleeping for the entire ride (unsupervised FSD).”

This was an expected change, especially as Tesla has been hinting for some time that it is approaching a feature-complete version of Full Self-Driving that will no longer require driver supervision. However, with the increase, some are concerned that they may be priced out.

$99 per month is already a tough ask for some. While Full Self-Driving is definitely worth it just due to the capabilities, not every driver is ready to add potentially 50 percent to their car payment each month to have it.

While Tesla has not revealed any target price for FSD, it does seem that it will go up to at least $150.

Additionally, the ability to purchase the suite outright is also being eliminated on February 14, which gives owners another reason to be slightly concerned about whether they will be able to afford to continue paying for Full Self-Driving in any capacity.

Some owners have requested a tiered program, which would allow people to pay for the capabilities they want at a discounted price.

Unsupervised FSD would be the most expensive, and although the company started removing Autopilot from some vehicles, it seems a Supervised FSD suite would still attract people to pay between $49 and $99 per month, as it is very useful.

Tesla will likely release pricing for the Unsupervised suite when it is available, but price increases could still come to the Supervised version as things improve.

This is not the first time Musk has hinted that the price would change with capability improvements, either. He’s been saying it for some time. In 2020, he even said the value of FSD would “probably be somewhere in excess of $100,000.”

Tesla starts removing outright Full Self-Driving purchase option at time of order

Tesla has chosen to axe the ability to purchase Full Self-Driving outright from a select group of cars just days after CEO Elon Musk announced the company had plans to eliminate that option in February.

The company is making a clear-cut stand that it will fully transition away from the ability to purchase the Full Self-Driving suite outright, a move that has brought differing opinions throughout the Tesla community.

Earlier this week, the company also announced that it will no longer allow buyers to purchase Full Self-Driving outright when ordering a pre-owned vehicle from inventory. Instead, that will be available for $99 per month, the same price that it costs for everyone else.

The ability to buy the suite for $8,000 for a one-time fee at the time of order has been removed:

This is a major move because it is the first time Tesla is eliminating the ability to purchase FSD outright for one flat fee to any of its vehicles, at least at the time of purchase.

It is trying to phase out the outright purchase option as much as it can, preparing people for the subscription-based service it will exclusively offer starting on February 14.

In less than a month, it won’t be available on any vehicle, which has truly driven some serious conversation from Tesla owners throughout the community.

There’s a conflict, because many believe that they will now lose the ability to buy FSD and not pay for it monthly, which is an attractive offer. However, others believe, despite paying $8,000 for FSD, that they will have to pay more money on top of that cost to get the unsupervised suite.

Additionally, CEO Elon Musk said that the FSD suite’s subscription price would increase over time as capabilities increase, which is understandable, but is also quite a conflict for those who spent thousands to have what was once promised to them, and now they may have to pay even more money.

Tesla Robotaxi has a highly-requested hardware feature not available on typical Model Ys

These camera washers are crucial for keeping the operation going, as they are the sole way Teslas operate autonomously. The cameras act as eyes for the car to drive, recognize speed limit and traffic signs, and travel safely.

Tesla Robotaxi has a highly-requested hardware feature that is not available on typical Model Ys that people like you and me bring home after we buy them. The feature is something that many have been wanting for years, especially after the company adopted a vision-only approach to self-driving.

After Tesla launched driverless Robotaxi rides to the public earlier this week in Austin, people have been traveling to the Lone Star State in an effort to hopefully snag a ride from one of the few vehicles in the fleet that are now no longer required to have Safety Monitors present.

BREAKING: Tesla launches public Robotaxi rides in Austin with no Safety Monitor

Although only a few of those completely driverless rides are available, there have been some new things seen on these cars that are additions from regular Model Ys, including the presence of one new feature: camera washers.

With the Model Y, there has been a front camera washer, but the other exterior “eyes” have been void of any solution for this. For now, owners are required to clean them manually.

In Austin, Tesla is doing things differently. It is now utilizing camera washers on the side repeater and rear bumper cameras, which will keep the cameras clean and keep operation as smooth and as uninterrupted as possible:

These camera washers are crucial for keeping the operation going, as they are the sole way Teslas operate autonomously. The cameras act as eyes for the car to drive, recognize speed limit and traffic signs, and travel safely.

This is the first time we are seeing them, so it seems as if Safety Monitors might have been responsible for keeping the lenses clean and unobstructed previously.

However, as Tesla transitions to a fully autonomous self-driving suite and Robotaxi expands to more vehicles in the Robotaxi fleet, it needed to find a way to clean the cameras without any manual intervention, at least for a short period, until they can return for interior and exterior washing.
