    Update from Elon: Cybertruck production starting late 2022 and volume production in 2023

    I am in the same position you are in. I took my CT money and purchased a Model Y. My wife has named it "The Fun Car". Guess who is going to be the primary driver of the CT after the Model Y is traded in? Fortunately for me, I actually like driving her Nissan Leaf.

    Update from Elon: Cybertruck production starting late 2022 and volume production in 2023

    The choice between Rivian and Ford is obvious, but for those who need a work vehicle the Ford is going to be their first choice. I will wait for the CT and will test drive the Lightening when they are available.

    Update from Elon: Cybertruck production starting late 2022 and volume production in 2023

    I am in the position of needing a truck and the CyberTruck meets all of my needs. Fortunately, I am patient and I have generous friends who loan me their trucks. I would rather wait and get the right truck with the right technology than to take delivery of something that is not fully developed.

    CT vs Cold Weather States

    I agree that physics dictates range, that is why I am interested in what they will present on battery day. I really hope that the CyberTrucks will have the latest in battery technology. We will all have to be zen-like in our wait.

    Cybertruck Has a Texas Home! Musk Announces Gigafactory Texas For Cybertruck Production!

    Now the countdown begins. When will the first Cybertruck roll off out of the factory? When will we see one in the wild? How many accidents will be caused by people staring in amazement as the ignore the fact that the car ahead of them just stopped?

    Smaller size outside US?

    There was talk about a follow-on to the cybertruck that would be smaller, but no other details have been provided. I imagine it would be the equivalent of a Ford Ranger. My best guess is we will have to wait until GigaBerlin and Texas are at full capacity before anything like that will be...

    True Price of the Cybertruck

    It is still less expensive than a Model X and much more utilitarian. I hope you are saving for your down payment. I am going to try and have 1/2 of total cost to put down.

    Ok if GM/Ford go under?

    I am not okay with them going under. Where would we get trucks to pull backwards with our Cybertrucks?

    The Cybertruck is NOT a "Pickup Truck". So what is it?

    Did anyone watch Godzilla King of the Monsters? We should give the Cybertruck a similar title. How about Emperor of ALL Trucks? Also you get the super cool abbreviation of EAT (their lunch) which is exactly what it is going to do to all trucks and SUVs.

    Report: Cybertruck Factory is headed to Austin Texas!

    I have been to Houston one time. I took the tour of the NASA facility; it was really cool.

    Full Video: Cybertruck Featured on Jay Leno's Garage

    one step closer to reality. I really loved how much light there is in the interior. I also think the seats are really cool looking. The production version is going to be better than this prototype which means we will have the best vehicle ever produced.

    Report: Cybertruck Factory is headed to Austin Texas!

    I really hope they build the Cybertruck in Austin, Texas. It would give me an excuse to visit Texas, attend Fully Charged Live, and take a tour of the factory. Austin is the one town in Texas that is culturally diverse enough to please all visitors.

    Update: Cybertruck Full Self Driving (FSD) Option Now Costs $8K

    I am glad that I preorder with the FSD option. I do not know if I will use it that much; I really enjoy driving, but I wanted to make sure that I have the option to let the vehicle drive itself while on long distance road trips.
