56 Cybertrucks at Fayetteville GA Dealership…

Lowering the interest rate is the same thing as lowering the price.

I saw a lot of CT inventory at the Franklin, TN Tesla offsite storage lot today. I would speculate that production is up and inventory is building on unsold units.

Notice how the OP posted a bunch of photos but not a single one showing the available sign he claims they all have. Its common for delivery centers to deliver up to 30 in a single day. So this is 2 days worth of deliveries. More fake news on these forums.

I guess we have one photo now out of a purported sea of them? Why bury the lead?

Who goes to a forest and tries to depict it by taking a picture of one tree?

Curious.

@ElectricT3ch Are you checking "Vehicle details" in the app? My VIN showed up there without notice. It still has my reservation number at the top in the app, but the details has the VIN.

@ChiTownCT I thought I'd see more. Around me, I see Rivians and Lightnings every single day, often times multiple Rivians in a parking lot. I almost never see CTs. Maybe once a month, or once a week at most.

CT sales numbers are good for an electric truck-- they've probably already delivered well over 30k this year. Maybe even 50k by the end of the year. That's more than any other electric truck. But for comparison, the Ford sells over 600,000 F-series trucks every year.

Is it really that pricy at $80k? There's a lot of different models that go into the "F-series", but even if we just look at the most common consumer pickup, the F-150s, there are a ton of trim levels for a crew cab (4 door truck) and many are in the $60k -$100k range. https://www.kbb.com/ford/f150-supercrew-cab/2025/

I think what hurts sales the most are:
#1 It's an electric truck. I just don't think electric trucks make much sense for long-distance towing or hauling. It takes too much time to recharge. It's fine for around-town stuff, but many people aren't ready to spend so much time charging on a long haul. My CT will be in town 95+% of the time and I never tow. So it's fine for me and others, but lots of people tow long distances and they'd prefer ICE and I think that's rational. Far and away, I think this is what limits the adoption of electric trucks. It basically takes range anxiety and increases it massively.

#2 It looks different from other trucks. Lots of people love how regular trucks look. Lots of people like paint. Fewer people dig the look of stainless steel. Not to mention the geometry. For some, the CT is "showy". To me, it's more utilitarian than the curvy, glossy painted trucks that dominate the market. It's in the eye of the beholder, and I recognize that my preference is in the minority.

Maybe a distant third factor is Elon Musk. His activities have made him a polarizing figure and inserted him into discussions of politics. I don't assume that people endorse the political positions of the CEOs of companies that make the products that they buy. But maybe it's a factor in some buying decisions.

I like the approach Tesla is taking with it. Go utilitarian. Don't try to beat the conventional trucks at their own game. Make the most durable body, easy to replace parts, easy to modify. The most durable in-town truck. The engineering is excellent as always. I think there is room for improvement in terms of fit-and-finish, and quality. And it'd be good to keep an eye on ways to improve durability. But maybe the CT can grow to become the best bang-for-the-buck in-town truck for trades and short-haul applications that require power (i.e., more power than a small truck can provide).

S/N 43458 was produced October 15.

I passed on my reservation, but still have interest in a Cybertruck. I decided to book a test drive, I’m here now there are at least 40 Cybertrucks here, they have a few Foundations, but mostly none Foundations. Every wheel option, interior option, etc. Some may be for delivery, but most have a “Take me home, I’m available” sign on them.

On another note I’m glad I waited I much prefer the Tactical Gray interior and I would stick with the Base All Season wheels.

Demand has clearly come to a standing hault. I’m going to wait this out and see where this goes.

Thirteen Cybertrucks parked in the lot behind the service center in Tallahassee yesterday.

Apropos of … something:



Literally stopping production until next year.

 

[mbdsb]

@CyberTally Yeah! Another data point. Thanks!

You're a technical person- have you modified your CT at all?

 

[sys700]

I went foundation series beast and opted for the tactical grey myself when I ordered and took delivery back in Sept. Personally felt like the white on the door just looked too out of place.

Same! The grey interior should be the upcharge!

It appears that a troll and a bot had a loving relationship and produced a spawn of robotrolls on this forum.

Now that we are moving away from all of the FS serious buyers, the trolls, shills and wanna be’s are in short demand.
I swear these posters are reminiscent of other posts I’ve seen that only want to impart $TSLA shorts & FUD.

As a Cyberbeast owner, as well posts I’ve read from other owners, we get to hear it all while out driving our CT’s and none of this surprises me as to the naysayers.

 

[cyberjeff25]

Foundation comes with lots of options- included. Add them ip

I’ve owned 3 Tesla’s, the Cybertruck could possibly be my 4th. I have had several pickups and I miss them. Kids in college so it would be used as a pickup more too. Currently my daily is a 2023 Model S LR, it drives so nice, but I wouldn’t mind more room for family trips (5 of us) and although it was just a short test drive I thought the Cybertruck drove just as smooth. And that was with A/T tires. The air suspension is amazingly good.

Im going to hold off for now, want to pay down the S more (I bought before the price changes so $30K negative equity was instant when they lowered prices). I’m hoping they have some sort of incentive maybe supercharge miles or financing, time will tell.

If you can't afford it just say you can't afford it.

Take a calculator to the nearest Ford dealership. Count the number of unsold vehicles on the lot, multiply by the number of days in the month, divide by 0.69 and then shove the whole thing up your ass because you can’t determine anything about demand by surveying a single location without any other context!
