I ask them, “How much do you think it cost?” I get numbers all over the place but it is consistently above $100K. Then I drop on them $80,000. They are all surprised and think it is a good price.

I tell them what I paid, which is 129K. I've gotten guesses at over 200K and others for 60k. No one seems to know what price this prototype-looking vehicle is worth. I get this question multiple times a day when I am out and about.

Personally, I do not think it is rude at all to ask. The more transparency we can have about money, with anyone, the better. Helps make it so envy is less of a thing.
How much money do you make per year?
What's your net worth?

Except $80,000 isn't what you paid and nobody can get one for that price

My standard answer is they start at 60 grand depending on what options you get.

it seems to catch people offguard and calm their nerves.

Most responses are “oh wow that’s way more affordable than I thought”

I smile and a drive away

I would share information like this in person, but the world wise web is a slightly different story. On here I prefer as close to walled-off privacy as it gets, as scammers abound.

Yes thanks for that brilliant observation. Didn’t know we were dealing in truth here.

Lighten up, Francis. No need to be full bore all the time.

Multiple times the first question asked by random people is how much did that cost? How do you guys respond to this. I’m trying to not come off as douchy or snoby. I’ve always driven old ass cars and this is a new world to me.
I always tell them they can order one just like my Dual Motor now for $79.9K but it might take a year or more to get it.

Interesting…
Based on zero facts…
I’m still guessing Tesla’s cost is in the Millions per Truck at this point.
Probably years until they reach the scale where startup costs are overcome and they start making a profit.

Of all the attention this truck gets, I’ve only been asked once what it cost, and when I told him he said, “That not bad considering what a fully-loaded truck will run these days.”

One smart-axx did say, “I hope you can get your money back.” And then he added, “You don’t haul gravel with that thing do you?”

My response: “Heck no, I’ve got a truck like yours that I haul gravel with.”

I tell them $1100 because I still don't have my ****** truck yet! :)

But if I did.....I'd say $100k for the early release model but they'll be cheaper in the future!

This is what I say. And it is accurate. It’s $79,900 to order now DM. No one interested now is going to need to worry about the $20k foundation package.

I say they are forcing people who want it early to take it fully loaded and it’s 100k.
