Dual Motor reservation holders, still a buyer at $79,900?

I'll predict by mid-2024 (or before) you are going to be seriously regretting that move.

Get back to me in June and let me know how I did.

agreed.

You know it’s a bad sign when people who are such enthusiasts that they are signed up for a friggen website on a truck four years out start saying they won’t get it…

what the f was Tesla thinking?

It’s now official. A base AWD 2024 Cybertruck is EXACTLY $79,990.

And ya’ll thought I was crazy!!!!!!!!!!

Even I will have to think twice before following through with my AWD Cybertruck reservation.

I’m glad I have deposits on two other vehicles. A 2024 Tacoma TRD Pro and Ineos Grenadier which I would convert to the upcoming pickup truck (QuarterMaster) version coming in late 2024.

What the fuck in hell. 50G to 80G is a 60% increase. Never in my worst nightmares did I envision such a travesty. Elon, you're a sheister. I figured there would be an increase, but this is insane. I've made bad decisions in my life, but I'm not this crazy. FU, Elon. I'm out.

Tesla is a premium brand. The Cybertruck wasn’t going to be an inexpensive pickup.

Tesla’s mistake was misleading buyers in 2019 that they would offer an affordable BEV pickup with a SS skin.

Telsa is thinking of maximizing its profits and not leaving money on the table.

Even at this price, there will be more than enough buyers to have every single Cybertruck sell out for the first year. If the demand isn't that high come second year, there is a very strong possibility of Tesla reducing the price. That is when I will buy one.

Why do you say that was a mistake? It made people think that Tesla was going to disrupt the truck market, and drove the price of TSLA stock to the moon. Maybe it wasn't a mistake, maybe they meant to do that.

I guess I am going to stay put with my Dodge 3500, "Betsy", for a while longer. May get a SR Lightning Pro for short hauls and running around. Sad day for me, but I understand Tesla taking advantage of all the demand, especially with the 7,500 US fed tax credit. Not going to cancel my 40k reservation just yet. Will wait and see.

Obviously would like it cheaper but hopefully they can honor financing terms that would have been roughly the same monthly payment as the original price but just for longer time period, I think that could work for me.

I won't take my reservation of a dual but will still consider the single motor when it arrives. Or if the dual gets dropped to 70 or below.

I would argue that the only thing in common with the S and X is the air suspension.

The interior and software so far all screams Y and 3.

Refreshed model 3 has basically the same interior and is Teslas cheapest vehicle.

During unveil, Tesla spoke to how the new manufacturing process (giga casts, no paint shop etc.) would streamline builds and lower costs. Im sure that's not all gone

The big difference between the S,X and CT? The S and X were never designed for mass market production.

Elon has stated multiple times that they basically only make those for sentimental reasons

Sorry you were wrong.
