Congrats, you will love it.

Questions:

1) Why did you decide to go with new over used?
2) Are you getting FSD?
3) What other options did you get?
4) What is the total cost?
1. The used market in Miami still has awd in the low to mid 70s, rather have the warranty intact as original owner. My job reimburses my miles so the truck will pay for itself.

2. No, prob month to month on busier times.

3. Nothing else, the stuff I like is already in the aftermarket.

4. MSRP minus referral and healthcare discount.

During my test drive the word that kept on coming to mind “spaceship”
Are you picking it up at Miami Gardens SC? Will be interesting if they have corrected the slight bulges at the different attach point on the Cantrails.

What has changed with the 2026 models?
For the 2026 Cybertruck, Tesla engineers went back to the drawing board and came up with a new design for the Vehicle Identification Number (VIN). After extensive testing, they replaced the "S" in VIN digit 10 with "T" for the 2026 model year.

Telsa doesn't usually do model year redesigns; significant refreshes only occur after several years (and have not occurred yet for the Cybertruck). Instead, they continuously improve their production processes, materials, and software. The model year designation is legally required, but for Teslas it's usually not very meaningful. Probably the easiest way to tell the difference between a 2026 Cybertruck and a 2025 or 2024 is to check the VIN.

First post. Long time reader.

Ordered AWD on the 23rd, delivery scheduled for 27th. All tasks completed and I’m excited as heck.

Does this sound normal? App said 4-6 week delivery but I’ll take it.

Bit of jitters right now lol

edited for correction, I ordered AWD, noobie mistake on the lingo
Congratulations.
Just wait until you experience steer by wire with four wheel steering.
You're gonna love it.

Yup...and it takes getting used to since the steering wheel inputs need to be 90% less than a regular/analog steering rack system. You'll probably be a little jerky, especially in parking lots. :)

It's good to have another CT in Miami, as whenever I see one on the road I yell "CYBERTRUCK"! My wife just puts up with me. As others have said, steer by wire is out of this world. You will find driving ICE after the CT a PITA.

Homelink included instead of MyQ
Midgate now drops to connect to vault
Range extended to 525 miles
HW5

...oh wait that was my wishlist to Santa.

AFAIK, pedals are now black, not metallic

welcome to the Lone Wolf club, CT's owners are bunch of confident strong backbone people that are able to take humility, hate and jealousy from your own family and outsiders. We are NOT sheep.
The CT is the only vehicle where owners have to tell themselves this 🤪
