The stainless panels weight in at around 300 kg at 3 mm, each drive unit is around 100 kg, and using the best energy density of Tesla pack so far, 180 Wh/kg, a 135 kWh pack would be 750 kg and a 170 kWh 944 kg
6,900lb all-in for tri motor, 6,800lb all in for dual - curb weights
Here is a poster on our forum with a picture of the display.Congrats! I missed your post. I'm surprised more people are not questioning the source of the information!
Oh, wait, it looks like you edited your post after the fact!
If you are a professional driver, a busy contractor, a hard-core camper, please go ahead take your $100 back put another $100,000 and buy a class three truck dedicated for pulling; otherwise, if you are a white-collar contractor, a fancy plumber, or electrician especially in the city in the need of a fancy truck, able to stand the potholes from San Diego, the hills from San Francisco, the stop and go from Los Angeles and the high-speed turnpike in New Jersey or Hudson River, go ahead and buy the Cybertruck; but don’t be mistaken, Cybertruck was designed having in mind the soccer moms from South Orange County and the doctors, lawyers and dentists from Minnesota and North Dakota
That's what it's always been. We knew it was unibody from day 1. That doesn't mean it can't be accurately described as exoskeleton.
The Cybertruck is perfect for a busy contractor going between jobsites. Time is money and if you start every day with a full charge, you're already ahead of the competition.
Hey, could you post a link to the study that shows Tesla "lost the bulk of the work crowd". Some yahoo here pointed out that the preponderence of work trucks are light construction, yard work, light haul, etc. trucks that almost exclusively either pull trailers (cargo and flat) or just loads in the bed with no tool boxes for work. I want to prove him wrong without just talking out of my ass.
though, those 1/2 tons are people-movers that comfortably seat 5 large humans, to say nothing of 6 large humans.
Fleet data. But thanks for the passive aggressive comment and totally missing the point that a CT is not a drop in replacement for the largest buyers. They left hundreds of thousands of units of fleet sales on the table.
Yes boss, you are right; the true campers are backpacking a tent; i was referring at those pulling 3 bedrooms 1&1/2 bathrooms, over 10k lb; and busy contractors with big jobs pulling heavy machineries, i guess going between job sites light u can make it better with a motorcycle.
Okay, that's fair. Most fleet sales are typically for lower end trucks, I would think, and not flagship trucks. My point was that most trucks that I see here in Nebraska are not used as mobile tool boxes. Nebraska isn't exactly the motor city, of course. The contractors haul some stuff in the bed but most of them pull trailers with equipment loaded. The fleet trucks around here seem to all be larger, F350 sized trucks like the power company uses. Tesla started with the most popular truck segment, the F-150 size. Maybe they'll tackle the fleet sales that are 17% of all truck sales someday (well, 17% of all Ford truck sales, anyway) though I doubt they'll offer discounts to fleets like Ford does.
I'm not looking for confirmation bias at all, it is not an exoskeleton. During the 2019 reveal event they said it would be an exoskeleton where the stainless steel body would actually be structural. I do not believe the stainless steel panels on the current unibody implementation are structural at all. Do you?That's what it's always been. We knew it was unibody from day 1. That doesn't mean it can't be accurately described as exoskeleton.
Sometimes I wonder about the logic displayed here. I mean, since when has a misspelling been anything more than a misspelling?
Oh, yeah, when you're looking for some confirmation bias...
I think you may be citing all fleet, which means not just trucks but also eg sedans/vans/and cab-only
