placing an order today and ordering for the business.

does anyone have a guess as to the feasibility of putting in L tracks to the bed after purchase? does this still have the normal frunk? what about the ability on my own personal truck to install the rear screen and power outlets. I could care less about the audio stuff. I know that super high quality heated and cooled leather seats is an easy solution in the aftermarket. also is buying a destroyed Tesla car with FSD in order to transfer it to the truck actually doable?

I was gone 18 months so if any of these questions are obvious, my apologies

Frunk is likely the same and the L tracks are offered by Tesla as an add on now ($250). The power outlets in the bed are there, but the two in the console are not. Adding those and the rear screen could probably be done, but I wouldn't imagine it to be cheap utilizing Tesla components.

On the FSD transfer... people have done that, but given the wait times here, I wouldn't say that is realistically feasible.

Cybertruck has won the culture war.

Reddit also thought Kamala will win in a landslide. The reality is Reddit is place where delusional people and bots build a fantasy that’s far from reality.

thanks. given the wait times for what? Im seeing that cyber trucks ordered before 3/31 qualify for transfer. is that actually just for those PURCHASED before that? I'm seeing delivery date of October on the site

As long as you purchase a new Tesla vehicle by March 31st, you can do an FSD transfer to it.

ok well then ill stop chasing that dragon. thanks for the info.

Agree to purchase is the optimal word. From there one can find or decide the car to transfer the FSD from. For instance. I can choose from two. Just waiting on a VIN to be assigned to do that procedure. One cannot move the FSD till the VIN is assigned and getting close to delivery.

I think this is going to be an issue for some. Some want to get rid of other car sooner than later, or might be worried if delivery is over a year away.

Supposedly any ordered CT would apply as well, but having a salvage Tesla with FSD laying around for 6-12months waiting for a delivery doesn't seem all the feasible or realistic.

Compelling. I have a May 2020 reservation. I have a 2026 Ram RHO on order right now, due in 2-3 weeks.

Update: The Ram RHO came in and I took it. I waited all week on the 59k CT, I wanted to order but as late as possible. Once it said 2027 delivery I ordered this afternoon, different tax year (business owner)! A truck that can drive itself and power share for 59k is just too compelling. This is a steal.

That's what the Tesla rep told me also on the phone on the 25th when I ordered mine. As long as you had an order in before 3/31 you would have the option to submit the FSD transfer from the app when you accept delivery of the CT.

Tesla would just scale back that pack if needed. The only reason that pack currently exists is that Tesla has a bunch of 4680 cells laying around (they've been well over 2x CT production rate for over a year now, dry cells since Q3), and they have an excess of production currently. The new Y 4680 pack is a lower capacity pack than the 2170 packs and it has some logistical issues to it (they ship from Austin to Berlin currently), where if the cells could be used in CTs instead, it solves a few issues. There wouldn't be any production issues in Berlin either as there is a ton of 2170s on the market that Tesla could gobble up. LG especially has a huge supply right now.

It is likely a simpler supplier issue... the bed and suspension components have had very little production and the contracts were likely canceled or drastically cut back when the RWD was canned. Those lines have to be spun back up and get going again. IIRC Bilstein's Mexico plant handles most of Austin's production (both CT and Y) and a place in Indiana manufactured the bed components. Both of those can be spun up relatively quickly (few months), but it isn't a light switch. The June deliveries very likely represented the supply on hand. Anything beyond is the specialized components needed for this model. Then the focus is likely on fully utilizing one shift of production as adding a 2nd shift adds significant cost.

They must have a good reason to want to put it into the Berlin Y, it would've otherwise made a whole lot more sense to put it into the US Standard Y. There's also the question of domestic Cathode production.

Possibly, but there wasn't a whole lot unique about the RWD that would've been sourced externally. The bed supplier, for example, is almost certainly the same as the Premium's.

Finally some original thought.

Genius, it's the same thought (i.e. a supply constraint). Only a question of what it is.

I wouldn't put too much stock into those estimated delivery dates. It's not like each order is sent to the accounting department to precisely calculate it.

The order system probably uses a simple algorithm, based on the size of the queue and the current run-rate. With this backlog of orders, Tesla will no doubt boost production. There's no way they're going to sit on their hands with a 1-year backlog.

Its definitely not reliably accurate. Ex. i have a 10k earlier VIN from a person who ordered a day before me

Yes, I agree. Tesla is a public company and answer to shareholders. If increased CT sales can compensate for cancelled S & X sales in Q3-4 then Tesla has to ramp and ramp fast AWD CT.
