    IDRA shipping a 9k Ton Gigapress to Asia!

    This is good news for IDRA. As it pertains to Tesla is simply speculation. Interesting to see everyone's wheels turning with possibilities though. And yet it's just that spinning wheels. ?

    Welcome to 2023, The Year of the Cybertruck (Predictions?)

    Good predictions already. I don't have anything useful to add. I expect to get mine in Summer 2024. 80k in line, double motor, live in Ohio. Still holding out hope for factory pickup and tour option over delivery. Elon was planning to make some nature park of sorts. ? It would be cool if...

    PSA: Cybertruck body shell exoskeleton is not one contiguous piece of bent steel

    FWIW. My limited understanding about vehicle engineering is that trucks handle most load in chassis which I expect will be stamped steel by the IDRA press for CT. The body panels will provide structural support as needed for as a "safety cage" but most of the strength in a vehicle us required in...

    Cybertruck reveal night was 3 years ago already! Any forum members attend?

    I watched the event about 11 hours later during a break at work. I am in Eastern time so it was late for me. I didn't expect to make a reservation but when I saw the price I threw $100 down right then. I told my wife a couple weeks later ?

    Steel Dynamics identified as the steel supplier for Cybertruck (same as SpaceX Starship)

    Good thing I bought a few STLD when is was $60. Steel as an industry has done good past couple years and may do better when domestic auto makers start making vehicles again. Or not. Too bad I don't have enough shares to buy a CT ?

    Rumor: 30 Cybertrucks to be manually built in December 2022 [ADMIN WARNING: NO POLITICS or TWITTER TALK]

    Seems like a reasonable way to prepare for mass production. Especially for a new engineering design for a product. Timing may be questionable.

    Unplugged Performance Aftermarket Wheels announcement reveals production Cybertruck design?! [UP CYBRHEX Forged Wheels]

    Maybe I'm bad at math, but I reserved a Cybertruck to eventually save money. Not for design or esthetics. I don't think I would recoup value rims so not interested, but happy to there is an aftermarket evolving already. Third party support for truck options could be nice.

    Elon says Cybertruck might have options for hitch mounted motor propeller or special wheel hub with paddles 🚣‍♂️

    This news affects my order approximately 0.0% If I was forced to ford a flooded road or creek to save the life of someone in my family I would go for it. Otherwise I'm not interested in testing this out. Call me boring I guess. (Edited typo)

    DMG MORI machine @ Giga Austin is for Cybertruck!

    I stopped watching drone videos. I have to work harder, less free time, earn more money if truck price is increasing. Inflation didn't make its way to my paycheck.

    Musk Expects Cybertruck Production to Begin Mid-2023 [Per Q2 Earnings Call]

    Okay then, I expect this website to blow up with data from users in communication with Tesla in about 14 months. Perhaps I will get mine Spring 2024. ? Maybe the website owners will begin a delivery tracker to compliment the reservation tracker that is so popular here.

    Tesla removed from the S&P 500 ESG index

    So what is ESG? I found these quotes on https://investjustly.com/about-esg/ "An ESG score is compiled from data collected around specific metrics related to intangible assets within the enterprise." Intangible assets? What's that? (Reading on...) "They are used for a myriad of specific...

    Tesla removed from the S&P 500 ESG index

    I was at the supermarket once looking for some dish soap. A mother and her teenage daughter whiz by to grab a bottle in a hurry. The daughter says grab the one that's good for the environment! In my ignorance I asked, "it's soap! How can it be good for the environment?" Startled, and...
