$68,890 for the AWD 340 mile range. $18k more than the suggested.
Probably what I will be getting but not happy.

The full price out of pocket is $80,000 for the AWD. $68,890 is just the price minus the tax credit that not everyone will get and the supposed gas savings.

Yep, by this measure the AWD Ford Lightning starts at around $38000...

I wonder what a range extender is....maybe an additional battery pack that you can bolt into the bed?

Looks like it is a battery pack that you have permanently installed in the bed, takes up about 1/3 of the bed and is going to cost around $16k.

Ford Lightning XLT is $55,000. Only issue is finding a dealer that doesn't add a market adjustment

I literaly want to cry. After 4 years of waiting with a reservation from the night it was announced to get subpar range on the duel motor and its $20,000 more then it was announced and who knows when it would actually be delivered. Definitely wish I could sell my reservation.

You can get your $100 back, why prolong your misery?

I learned a long time ago that when things don't pan out, and there is no way to salvage it, just cut your losses and walk away. And that's probably good financial advice for most people here, in terms of creating a strong financial future for yourself and/or family. Taking on debt to buy a car or a truck is not smart financial planning, unless you like always struggling financially.

All his hype about the CT is starting to feel like 2001 segway hype.

Well, I can see you will probably never be in the Cybertruck Owner's Club!

Oh well. Sad (for you), but not really news. I've seen this coming for a couple of years now!

You mean the one with only 230 miles of EPA range when new? And no adjustable suspension? And that drives like a legacy pickup truck? And that doesn't have a lockable vault? And that is awkward to steer in tight spaces and off-road? And that has no power outlets without an expensive upgrade? And that has soft paint and thin body panels that will dent if you look at them wrong? OK Maynard.

1 minute for every month they are late. We're gonna be waiting awhile.

You know, this was actually the best guess. They're about 24 months late, and the presentation started about that late.
