Tesla Cybertruck Windshield Protection: Is the $35/Month Subscription Worth It?

Tesla Cybertruck Windshield Protection: Is the $35/Month Subscription Worth It?

Hey everyone, DennisCW here! If you're a Cybertruck owner or thinking about getting one, you've probably wondered about protecting that massive windshield. Well, Tesla has finally rolled out a monthly windshield protection subscription for the Cybertruck in the US, and let me tell you, it's got a price tag that might raise some eyebrows. In this post, I'll break down the details, do some quick math to see if it's worth it, and share my top recommendation for all-weather floor mats to keep your Tesla in top shape. Let's dive in!

The New Cybertruck Windshield Protection Subscription

Tesla's windshield protection plan for the Cybertruck is now available as a $35 per month subscription. That's right – $35 a month! To put that in perspective, the equivalent plan for a Model 3 or Model Y is around $12 a month. So, we're talking more than double – almost triple – the cost. Ouch! But before you dismiss it, let's look at what you get:

• One free windshield replacement every 12 months
• Unlimited chip and minor crack repairs
• Additional replacements with a $100 copay
• OEM glass and Tesla calibration
• Cancel anytime flexibility

The subscription clock resets every year, which is a nice touch. It's designed to give Cybertruck owners peace of mind, especially since that windshield is no small (or cheap) piece of glass.

How Much Does a Cybertruck Windshield Actually Cost?

I did some digging to find out the real replacement cost, and from a repair order I came across, a new Cybertruck windshield runs about $2,500. That's a hefty bill if you're paying out of pocket!

Now, if you live in a state without mandatory windshield insurance coverage (or if your policy, like mine through Costco, only covers repairs and not full replacements without hitting your deductible), this subscription could be a lifesaver. Let's crunch the numbers to see if it makes financial sense.

Is It Worth the $35/Month?

Quick math time:

• Monthly cost: $35
• Annual cost: $35 x 12 = $420
• Two years: $840
• Three years: $1,260

Compare that to a single $2,500 replacement. If you need even one full replacement in a year or two, you're already ahead. Factor in unlimited repairs for chips and cracks (which are super common on highways), and it starts looking like a smart investment. Of course, it depends on your driving habits and location – if you're in an area with lots of road debris, this could pay for itself quickly.

What do you think? Is $35/month a steal for Cybertruck owners, or is it overpriced? Drop your thoughts in the comments below – I'd love to hear from fellow Tesla enthusiasts!

Bonus Tip: Don't Forget All-Weather Floor Mats

One thing's for sure: When you buy a new Tesla, it doesn't come with windshield protection – or a great set of all-weather floor mats. That's where my favorite pick comes in: the 3W Liners. I've tested tons of options – 3D Maxpider, Tesmanian, and various Amazon brands – and 3W Liners are hands-down the best. They fit perfectly, offer a lifetime warranty, and provide way better value than OEM mats.

I've got them in my Model X, Model 3, Model Y, and yes, my Cybertruck too. If you're looking to protect your Tesla's interior, these are a must-have.

Final Thoughts

Tesla's Cybertruck windshield protection subscription is pricey at $35/month, but with the high cost of replacements and unlimited repairs, it could be a worthwhile safeguard for many owners. Pair it with some quality floor mats from 3W Liners, and your Cybertruck will be ready for anything the road throws at it.
