Inevitable? Not quite. If Tesla cannot bring costs down price will limit the number of units sold. Tesla would then have to throttle back production. I love the CT but the jury is out as to eventual market share. If I owned an accessory company I would prioritize for my known market.
It does not make sense for accessory manufacturers to gear up production before they are certain of imminent ramp up. Why concentrate on CT if they will only make less than 100k units in 2024? Better to put effort and $$ into the ICE truck market. Just saying.
Based on how PowerShare was presented in the FS package anyone who wants to cancel if they are ineligible should be able to cancel their order with no financial penalty and not lose their place in line. At very best the offer was misleading. Even giving benefit of doubt it smells like bait and...
My reason for not accepting my invite has evolved over the past month. The primary reason is that I did not see 27.5 K value in the foundation package. 7.5K is added for lost AWD rebate. With state rebate that could be higher. I also do not care for the white trim in a vehicle I will get dirty...
I truly understand the disappointment and indignation being expressed by many long term forum members. If you are like me it takes something special to get you emotionally invested.
The CT has the potential to be special for many. A new vehicle that one day may have the name recognition of a...
Perhaps, but this feels different. All the prior vehicles were almost exactly what was forecast with some solvable initial issues. The CT is exceptional but it is so idiosyncratic and compromised that it will likely have a limited market share. I love it but have little confidence it will help...
I never was a fanboy. This evolving CT story is beginning to make me question this company In general. Deadlines are missed, mistakes made Yada, Yama… but something just seems off. stay tuned. Won’t pull the plug on my stocks just yet but I am spooked.
Very hard to predict when Tesla will open sales for nonfoundation cybertrucks. The faster the production ramp and the sooner that FS buyers slow to a trickle the sooner it will be. Tesla does not want standing inventory.
We are neighbors?. It has been raining pretty hard. IMHO that degree of leakage qualifies the vault cover as water resistant. I still would not store sensitive electronics in the closed bed during a heavy rain but at least the cover gives substantial shelter from rain. Just hope that continues...
Is there a reason we are still beating this dead horse? All of the available electric pickups are suboptimal for long distance towing Due to range. The semi proves that an EV can do it well but that is a completely different animal and use scenario. The range issues could be marginally...
Ouch!! We knew towing near maximum capacity in the cold would result in low range. The unfinished state of the towing software surprises me more. Will have to remove that rear view mirror ASAP.
I have solar that just barely covers all of our electric and a 175 amp main panel. Hope that can be configured with PowerShare. I have been planning to put in battery backup but have been waiting for a solution that includes V2H. Probably should get an estimate from an electrician so there are...
