Even used-to-used. I picked up a '18 Model X in march of this year for $68k which now bluebooks at $75k

Case study of 1, but my 13k mile 2021 Bolt EV has a higher resale right now than what I paid for it in May 2021. Part of that is because it'll get a new battery pack soon due to the recall, the other because of market conditions. A sign of the idiocy of the market right now - both my EVs have...

That's the curb weight for small battery pro. Bigger battery XLT is actually 6,590 and some websites report a Lariat at 6,710. Rivian clocks in at an insane 7,148 lbs. I know it's all hyperbole and guessing games at this point, but regardless of what Elon has said I don't see the CT coming in at...

I do think ya'll are still missing the pack weight factor. Using the Model S 85kWh/1200lb pack weight as proxy, the pack alone on a 400 mi CT is going to weigh ~2800 lbs. A steel body is already gonna be heavy too. Lets do more sloppy math - F-150 Lightning has a curb weight of 6100 lbs with a...

I'm in this camp. If the trade off for 400+ miles is 8+ second 0-60, sign me up for the mileage. But I honestly don't think that's a factor and we're not sacrificing range for acceleration since we can always just go slower ourselves. I think its truly a cost/weight thing. 400 miles, 2 mi/kwh...

Some of those supply chain shortages may not ease until 2024. https://www.cnn.com/2022/03/30/business/global-supply-chain/index.html https://www.theguardian.com/business/2021/dec/18/global-supply-chain-crisis-could-last-another-two-years-warn-experts...

My uneducated and uninformed opinion is that this is a long overdue snap to reality for the market. Trendline over the last few years has been idiotic and unsustainable for a number of reasons, including Tesla valuation. People with money will buy the correction and ride it up next time. People...

This thread went from dead for over a year to real active from one semi-snarky comment lmao.

My Hopes - Early 23 CT, volume late 23. - Fremont 4680 retrofit for MY, all MYs on 4680 by EOY - M3 4680 eta 2024 My Dreams - CyberVan - New low-cost($30k something) but for real this time My Reality - Lithium prices means big probs - Battery constrained still and prob into 2024 - Hey we're...

You know I've been playing with the new bobcat battery electric skid steer lately (as opposed to the umbilical electric one which has been around for a while) and that did get me to thinking about powered attachments. Like, could CT-as-engine (or any EV platform) be a replacement for the PTO for...

IDK - I bet it'll be an option, or at least an aftermarket mod. I've had concerns about how the exo/structural will work with aftermarket agricultural/functional accessories for mid-duty work (snow plow, winch, front-mounted snow blower (snowvac), spreader, etc), and this kind of confirms for me...

Okay, forgive me because I own a Bolt and a PacHy and am unfamiliar with the chargers on Telsa vehicles. I did google this, and I found no clear answer - so please no "let me google that for you" comments. Can a Tesla use a CCS DCFC? Is there an adapter to go from (for example) a Chargepoint...

First, welcome to the group! Second, you're going to want to install something called an EVSE (Electric Vehicle Supply Equipment), also known as an "L2" or a "Level 2" charger. These are 240v chargers, typically between 30 and 80 amps - some are hardwired, some use 14-50 plugs. It depends. Not...

$5k was already 2x too expensive on that camp kitchen, and now they want $6,750 for it?!. You wanna know the kind of camp kitchen I could buy/build for that much money? Heck, I could buy a competition-grade Yoder Smoker, a follow-behind trailer for it, and add a small solar arrray and LiPo...

I have a 2018 bought in Dec 2017, and have had a string of problems related to it. I detailed it in a post on the PacHy FB group recently and I'm happy to share in DM my series of probs if you want to know. I don't believe my negative experience is typical, however, and I've never had a problem...

This is my fear too. My PacHy was just recalled for battery fires, and based on Chrysler's other "fixes" for problems with this van I have zero faith in their ability to fix this in a timely manner. As such, I've been thinking about a 7-seat MY. But I want to be sure of one from Austin, because...

Need a hitch point and I'd get this over the Ranger EV.

You know, tenochtitlans.

I've heard a lot about the Berlin paint shop, the new colors, the new tech, etc. But I haven't heard bubkis about the paint shop in Texas. I have a hard time believing that they'd build a fancy schmancy paint shop in Berlin and not have Texas have the same tech and capabilities. Is there an...

I don't see the net benefit from buying M-B to Tesla. What Tesla is constricted by is not sales volume or exposure to that market, its: - Manufacturing capacity - Battery supply - Eventually, raw material availability If Tesla is going to do some acquisition, it's going to be to address those...
