I have never owned an EV. Totally happy with my Honda Pilot. I thought Teslas were a scam. My Wife and son loved the look of the CyberTruck and always pointed them out on the road.

After hearing news about Tesla vandalism, we decided to do a test drive on a whim. The drive was good, but a little scary - brake regeneration and fly by wire steering are not natural!

The deal going on was irresistible. 1k vet discount, 1k referral, overly generous trade in for our pilot (19,200), + 99,500 price for a high VIN 2024 foundation which included lifetime supercharging, premium internet and FSD. Plus 1.99 financing!

The delivery process was painful and communication extremely poor with the recall. But we lucked out and saw a price drop of 10k which Tesla honored.

Result: I am totally blown away. This thing drives better than anything I have previously. I had a loaner while getting my windows tinted (2024 tacoma SR5) and felt like I was driving s Flintstones car.

I'm 3k miles in & I'm still blown away! I wonder if the feeling goes away at 5k ? :LOL:!

Enjoy your CT Sacramento!
I am still waiting for it to go away too. I picked mine up, a used CyberBeast Foundation series with 6k miles for $85k, about a month ago and after 2500 miles I am still blown away. I had a Raptor before and we measured smiles per gallon instead of mpg because the gas mileage was pretty bad. I can’t believe how much fun I have in this thing while saving so much money in gas.
Congrats to the OP on your new ride man. It’s like we live in the future now and nobody understands until they get in the truck. I was prepared to deal with vandalism but I have been amazed at the amount of positive interactions we have every time we drive it. I hope you are getting the same.

A great deal, on the best truck ever invented.
