$59k Base Dual-Motor AWD Cybertruck Begin Delivery!

[mrcyber]

Huh? Even "peasant CT buyers" can finance through their own bank or credit union. Tesla has no particular leverage over how you finance your purchase. Do you think new truck buyers are ignorant of the basics?

Navy Federal Credit Union 3.89% 36 months. Approved within 1 hour and check overnighted. I told them I don’t need the money yet but they sent it anyway as it’s good for 6 months. Also refinanced another car at 4.75% 36 months. Of course all depends on your credit rating and relationship to a family member serving or has served in the military.

lol

this thing drinks gas like nobody’s business.

Have you ever owned an electric car? This CT will be my 4th Tesla since 2018. I drive nothing else. My wallet thanks me. The CT might not be as plush as some of these other trucks, but it makes up for it in other ways. It has better efficiency than a Toyota Prius, insanely quick for its size, capable off road, great for camping and adventures with on board power, FSD, etc. The loss you take will work itself out in the wash with fuel savings, no oil changes, etc. I am keeping this truck for many years and hope to pass it to my son as his first vehicle. I’m taking a loss on my hardware 3 2023 Model Y and rolling it in at the $59k price. So now at $69k it doesn’t feel bad at all.

Thanks. I had a model y performance previously. Loved it, needed a truck.

Last minute jitters, and I definitely don’t want to start a new thread, but here’s the discussion we keep having in my household.

Long story shorty, I didn’t expect the truck to be here so quickly. Therefore, I purchased another vehicle earlier this year , 1/2 ton truck (RAM) and honestly love it. I didn’t expect to like it so much. Plenty of power, extremely comfortable and a ton of storage. Honestly more comfortable than the CT. I will have to take a small hit on it, which I’m not a fan of.

I guess I’m asking to help convince me this is the right move lol. I have 5 hours to make my final decision.

Personal finance is personal, this is a decision you and your family need to make together, not with us Tesla fan boys.

That said, look at the overall cost of overship over x time. Even with the hit on selling the Ram, it may work in your favor. The math should help.

Two years to recoup “loss” when considering gas only. After that, it’s a win for the CT.

everyone is different. typically, unless you are having issues with your current auto the best decision is to keep running what you have. if you want it and have the $ go for it. I bought an RHO one week before the 59k was offered (ordered anyway). I love the RHO and don't want to get rid of it yet. I'm probably going to let the 59k order go and get a PAWD in a few years. Maybe I'll get lucky and get a free lifetime supercharging offer???

You ordered on 2/20, basically day 1 (it went live evening of the 19th), when the estimated delivery date was June.

It's now mid/late June. When did you expect the truck to be here?

Yeah, I have a Rebel. It really is a nice truck.

With Tesla’s history and the fact the date kept slipping, there was no guarantee.

Thanks Tom, I've adjusted the tracker but keep us updated. As for your son & the trade. My gut tells me he'll thank you in the long run. If you were getting rid of a Demon 170, that may be a different story.

Where is the tracker? Thx

But the date never slipped. Tesla never gave any official estimated dates after the initial one at order time.

Tesla's original order date estimates are typically very accurate.

I've been a member of about a dozen automotive forums, starting in 1999 with VWVortex. Before that, I was chatting on Newsgroups, for those of you who have been around the internet for a while.

Not to get too sentimental here, but the "$59k Owner’s Group", and the folks in this thread have been amazing. The comradery, sharing of perspectives, advice from previous CT owners, and encouragement to keep our sanity while waiting, has exceeded my expectations.

What’s clear to me is we all 2 things in common, we all agree the Cybertruck is an amazing vehicle and we know an amazing deal when we see one!

Playing around with ChatGPT this morning I had it pull some stats from the forum. While I don’t have access to the raw data like a forum admin may, this is pretty impressive regardless. This thread appears to be the #3 most replied and viewed thread of all time!

Hopefully someone at Tesla will take note and the “SAWD” will get the love it deserves.

Same; been a member of a number of forums. More general, IMO, CT owners are genuinely interested in anything CT even if it’s a ‘base’ model. In other forums, it’s typically the top trim that gets the most attention with mid trims that most enthusiasts own. Base models are usually looked down upon.

In my signature. Post your info here and I'll be glad to add. Thanks.

I think original reservationists would beg to differ. This conversation is going anywhere. Thanks for your input.

Do someone a favor that wants it, and cancel! The next person on the list will be all too happy to get it. The hit you'll take selling the dodge is more than the $250 non refundable deposit. You could also simply ask to put your order on hold. That should preserve your deposit, and maybe you will want it, when HW5 comes out. You should be locked in at the low price.
