If you really, really REALLY want an early CT, go to work for Tesla in the Austin factory!!:)

At least Lutz hasn't gone down the Gordon Johnson route of still saying Tesla is doomed. He still has things he will nitpit about Tesla, but is now mostly is quite praising of what Tesla has done. Maybe could have added a few links at the end to counterpoint his assessment 3 1/2 years ago.

I like to see Sandy go on a rant!!! And I'm sure after 40+ years of telling people how to do/make things better/faster/cheaper and being ignored because a/b/c/d/e excuse, he has a lot of frustration.

In my earlier post, I did qualify that 300 miles worked for a car. But I'm hoping to be able to afford a CT version that gets 400-500 miles. I don't tow much but having less than 150 miles range with a load would be a pain. Not enough charging stations around my locale for that to work, much...

And by the time they would ever start producing a car like this, 1000km range with no be a big thing. Yeah, it might be nice to not have to charge if your a 20 year old wanting to get from point A to point B in a big hurry, but as Elon has said 300 miles(500km) is enough range. The ability to do...

And OMG!! It has a fixed-glass roof!! GM is once again leading the way!/s

Maybe they are collaborating with Neuralink? Or maybe they have an interface that won't change how you operate the phone with every upgrade to the OS.:mad: Tesla has more than enough on their plate, so please just get my CT out the door with the 4680s.

And the Tesla shorts will soon be crowing that Tesla is now doomed. :eek:

Or maybe the government should subsidize taking the ICE vehicles off the road. As we transition to EVs, the ICE vehicles will be worth next to nothing. The lower and middle income folks that delay on switching will be hit hardest as their second most valuable asset becomes worthless. Didn't...

Good summary of some of the important steps we've seen since the annoucement. Only thing I think they should have added is the rear wheel steering tweet Elon had on July 3. We have seen videos that look to confirm that being added. Most of the any other details(wipers, outside rear view mirror...

It isn't actually the size of the battery that matters but rather how far you drive in a day and what the vehicle's consumption turns out to be. That's probably going to be about 420 Wh/mi. If you drive 100 mi per day then you will have to load 42 kWh meaning you'll need 42/0.9 = 46.7 from the...

Also am a double order. First order was December 2019. 2nd order was this April. The plan was to get a dual motor with FSD which about hits my financial limit. But I figure that my 2nd order will be 1 1/2 to 2 years later. Hoping that I can sell a dual motor for what I've paid and upgrade to a...

The joy of driving from a young age soon turns into a boring, tedious task. Some people enjoy it longer than others and certain roads/vehicles can bring back that joy. But those who resist progress on FSD are also ignoring the fact that highway fatalities in the US are in the mid-to-high 30,000...

I would hope that they plan to at least double the Superchargers in the Austin area. I hope to go there to pickup my CT like many of you and there maybe many MY customers that will want the same thing. The factory itself may become a bit of a tourist attraction for EV owners as well so having...

Tesla more than any other vehicle manufacturer is a software entity that writes its own software for each vehicle. There may be a base code that each vehicle uses, but I would be very surprised if a M3 had the exact same software as a Plaid MS. So with such a completely different...

Unless they can pass new legislation to expand EV credits, by the time they get pass 40,000 of the 70,000 reservations they have, the tax credit will expire. Ford is selling over 10,000 Mach E in a month currently. By the time the Lightning is rolling out to dealers next spring(if they are on...

The "Fool" is just a stock advising outfit with many different contributors. Some of their articles this year were even advising 'buy/hold' this year even when TSLA was around 800/850. And I think most of the Cramer/Fool/et al are just piling on TSLA since the stock has dropped to around...

I'm really hoping for an update on the CT, but surprised so few are looking at Semi. They've had multiple prototypes out for testing and talked about starting production this year also. But Tesla has a good problem. They have CT, Roadster, Semi and Model 2? in the pipeline and Everybody wants...

Interesting the different takes from the different media sites. Teslarati was big on the 610 mile range and never mentioned a stove. But it does sound like they are teasing a LOT of different possibilities with the CT. The eye tracking part for adjusting the mirror would be nice, but also...

Ford did put out a few specs with their Lighning, but I have yet to see the Cd for it. But then that has never really mattered to most of the demographics of their customers.
