Which is a crazy thing to do right now. They'll go lower.

Doubt it. I think demand has fallen off a cliff. It's in Model S/X territory now and probably going to be even lower demand than that.

And they should have done the exoskeleton. Not glued, thin pieces of stainless steel.

This part is both hilarious and sad. FSD and the stupid robotaxi aside, this is what should concern people the most. A vehicle and energy company focusing efforts on a stupid robot. No lower end models, no more-appealing designed truck or minivan. It really blows my mind how this company is...

Honestly, it's a halo model now and will go the way of the X and S. If Tesla was smart, they'd moved to a lower-cost vehicle and start on a more appealing truck model. But with Elon at the helm, I highly doubt they do that. This vehicle was a huge miss, on many levels.

And still not worth it.

Fixed it for you.

This thing is $100K. For that price, perfection is the expectation. I wish I was rich enough that I could accept a $100k car like I would accept a used $10k car.

Well, they are doing a stupid range extender(..well, maybe), so I wouldn't put it past them:ROFLMAO:

Hot damn man. Go back and read what I wrote. I AGREE with you. I don't think we'll see that trim of truck for 10-20 years. I also, literally, never said there were no pull through superchargers. I swear every time I try and come back to see cool shit, I get people who want to argue without...

LOL. Never said they would. Just pondering IF they would.

I would even say the demand for the $80k version is not high either. Tesla is just doing what they have to in order to get max return on the number of trucks they'll produce over the next 18-24 months. It's really what happens after those numbers fall off a cliff that I'm most interested in. Do...

Listen, I've had my model 3 for 5 years now. I've had zero issues with long trips, and I've got the SR+, so I get the "charge at home to full" argument. I also know what real highway range is and what it is in cold weather. It's not an issue anymore now that there are plenty of superchargers...

Makes sense. Kind of a bummer they don't want to actually accelerate the EV transition. Essentially, we won't be seeing that truck until the energy credits can't be claimed by Tesla. My point was more towards beating or matching ICE trucks on range. I mean, the F150 gets 450-600 miles...
