There is a world of difference between a brand new vehicle, in a class (truck) that Tesla has never created before, that looks like nothing else on the road and a car that is essentially a bigger version of an existing car.

My truck has a 5.3' bed and I haul 8x4 sheet goods just fine. There is just no need at all for a longer bed for an every day truck. I can haul sheet goods with tailgate up or down no problems. When I haul drywall I put gate down and just strap it in. A 6 foot bed is already too long and just...

There is no such thing as journalism any longer. It's completely dead and buried.

You'll be waiting a long time seeing as how Tesla doesn't have dealerships. :)

Legit question, does anyone here actually think that robotaxis will be an option in under a decade? Keep in mind for Tesla's robotaxi vision you will need level 5 autonomy as they want it to handle anywhere, unlike waymo for example which is adopting specific locations/areas. Keep in mind that...

I am just hoping that pickup/delivery at the gigafactory is an option! Look up Lockhart, TX. Its about 30 or so min south of Austin. There you will find, what is IMO, the best BBQ in the state and world. There are several incredible places in Lockhart and it is, IMO, well worth the short drive.

No you are not. There is no queue.

Existing Model 3's (at least mine) cannot (without hitting something) so why would you think a bigger CT could?

WIth how good the LA is, no such thing! :)

Its just dumb, worse than dumb idiotic. FSD is decades away from being able to operate without controls.

Nah they should chop a foot off the bed if you want more room inside. There just isn't a need for a 6' bed in a pickup. Mine has a 5' bed and with the tailgate down it supports anything I want to haul, even drywall just fine.

I think you aren't thinking through this clearly. Look at the cost to buy an EV vs an ICE car. People with lower income can't buy EV, even used. That won't change until/unless we get a significant energy storage breakthrough. Look at what Ford dealers did with Lightnings. Ford mandated...

The earliest I am aware of is CA banning the sale of *new* gas cars in 2035. That's *12* years away, that's not "a few years" at all! Even if other states follow suit people will just drive across the border to buy new gas cars if that's what they want. You can't realistically change people's...

Baloney. That's a small, but yes significant, portion of the truck market. Commercial truck sales were 476k in 2022. Eventually Tesla can lower prices to the point where they can compete for that market but it absolutely is not needed to make a "deep impact".

There is zero chance that dual motor is 80k. That would be going from 50k announced price in 2019 to 80k now, that's a 60% increase. Nothing else in their fleet is more than 10k over what it was in 2019. That's also more expensive than other EV trucks with that range and Elon has already said...

Auto park and summon used to be part of EAP not sure if that is still true or not. Personally I don't use either as they just don't work. (In this context the number of times I have to stop them in order to avoid hitting another car is not working for me.)

FSD is no where near able to drive in a straight line on some roads still. We are multiple decades away from level 5 autonomy. So no, auto backing up with a trailer is not even within sight.

Zero chance that Tesla's first confirmation of a possible van would be with a random youtuber.

Nobody knows, lots of speculation and guesses but no actual answers.

Well now if it does not come with a remote control I'll have to claim false advertising!
