Now if Tesla really wants to put the screws in, they announce at the earnings call that they’ve moved up Cybertruck launch date and production of the first sub compact vehicle starts at year end.

I think they actually bought time on the cheap compact. But I do expect some sort of a tease on Cybertrucks happenings. Maybe a picture like what leaked last month in the earnings deck.

If it was in the earnings deck, it wasn’t a leak.

Wheels you can easily buy after purchase and swap. That leaves room for white interior and color options. Charging connectors don't count towards the cap, they are accessories so excluded. Tow hitch can be installed after purchase also.

7-seater with third row folded has the same cargo space as 5-seat, there is no loss.

No, the sneaky shot from December. That wasn’t in the deck in December. There was no December deck lol

Like a status update of Cybertruck.

people bought Tesla model 3/y past 2 years must be sad. Very likely, trimotor Cybertruck will qualify for tax credit.

we bought a MY performance and were not sad.... it's a great car, we have a low interest rate, and Canadian EV rebates are pathetic so we didn't qualifyfor those anyways.

It isn’t about how you feel though, no offense. It’s about the price comparable shopping and spec to spec, this kinda slams every other option.

a similar spec Mach E is like 10k more dude.

I bought my car in early 2021 and paid $3,000 less for it. I didn’t get the federal rebate, but Oregon gave me a $2,500 check you can’t get now… so it’s about a push. I’m perfectly happy people buying them now can get a comparable price.

A good chunk of people who bought in 2021 paid less than $53k or not much more than that.

Also got mine in 2021 and probably saved $20,000 so far on gas, maintenance, and headaches during road trips. It might be a good time to upgrade if FSD can be migrated...

A 350 mi range quad for $79k looms. Go compare that to a Rivian or the Lightning. Oof. I’ll be driving my refrigerator!!
