I've ordered 3 cybertruck Tri-motors (each on different dates) and would like to increase them to 6. Can I change the number of trucks ordering and not affect the original pricing per vehicle?
Could the CT do a "TANK TURN" if the front wheels turn all the way LEFT while the rear wheels turn all the way RIGHT. Perhaps a software selection will allow that maneuver.
I think the reason Elon added the rear steering is so it could compete heads up with the Hummer Crab Walk and Rivian Tank...
The cost reduction to produce these trucks began with their design and NO paint shop which is 1/3 of a normal factory, no stamping equipment just laser cut and fold panels, Gigapress undercarriage and robot installed plug and play wiring harness. It was designed for simplicity to build from the...
Terafactory is 5 minutes from the airport. I'll fly there and drive it back to Maryland . . . oops, I meant I'll let my cybertruck drive me back to Maryland.
Legacy manufacturers have a dilemma. They can go out of business with the old dealership model of cash flow through new car sales, repairs and used car sales or sell million mile EV's that won't need repairs, are constantly updated and will last for many more years.
However, profit by...
ELON SHOULD HOLD a PROMOTIONAL CONTEST: Fans can post videos they create on a YouTube Tesla Promo Channel and the ones that get the most Thumbs Up win a free Cybertruck, Model Y, Model X, etc depending on which car they promote in their video. This will get MILLIONS of VIEWS, and Millions of...
GERMANY is FAR WORSE THAN TEXAS with restrictions and the Berlin Gigafactory build is AHEAD of CHINA at this point and will be production ready with 1 year.
I ordered the Tri-motor with full self-driving right from the start but not just for range, speed, camping and utility, but as an investment. Interest rates on car loans will remain low in 2021, so the difference in price will be very manageable on a monthly basis which can be fully covered by...
I think the ramp up will be much faster with the CT. NO painting, NO stamping, Plug in wiring harness, far more experience in streamlining factory layout. They will ramp up to 10,000 units per week within 6 months and be able to produce over 300,000 units in first 52 weeks.
1. Small winch/cable that can haul heavy objects up ramp into truck bed. 2. Rear seats that fold flat while rear window divider lowers to allow flat access to truck bed from inside truck even when tonneau cover is locked. 3. drainage plug in frunk or rear storage area to drain melted ice when...
I was paying $1600/yr with State Farm on my Model X which dropped to $800/yr when I switched to Progressive because they consider the safety features of a Tesla. However, I think by the time the Cybertruck is produced Tesla will insure these trucks themselves. Insurance companies that don't...
I like the car version but it should be bare metal the same as the others since eliminating the paint segment of the factory is a key element in limiting production costs. Aftermarket raps people can do on their own.
I believe Sandy Munro said the entire body will be formed from the same steel since it has to be strong enough to become the frame of the truck. It is too strong to be stamped but will be laser cut and then folded into the desired shapes with a break press.
