Most of the people I met today were not Tesla owners, but planned to be 'soon'. Women seemed to hate it Men loved it Kids said, "Is that real?"

I took about 60 photos today at 50 MP, hoping for good opportunities to zoom in and catch details. The glare on the windows made for horrible interior shots. I noticed the dual hexagon cup holders. The rear bench seat flips up. Tires are 34.6" in diameter. (285/65R20, to be exact). The...

Aluminum can be anodized. Not steel of any sort though. Typically, you might see steel powder coated. So your options on the CT are powder coating (brittle), Rhino liner (heavy), plastidip (2 years), vinyl (size limitations), or paint (standard).

CT was quoted initially as 0-60 in 2.9 seconds. Are those 'plaid' speeds? I think that was a selling point for some.

I think the CT pricing goal was to rival traditional truck sales, not compete with the likes of Rivian. Then again, we saw a $9k jump on the X, an $11k jump on the 3, and an $8k jump on the Y when they were finally launched. So, a $10k jump on the base model CT wouldn't be outside the Teslas...

The tri-motor is an extra $15k on the X. Any reason we shouldn't expect a similar price shift on the CT? I can see these rolling out for $80k & $95k.

So True! When I did my MST at the Honda Rider Education Center in Colton, CA, someone said, I can't ride my bike like I can one of these training bikes. We waited as the instructor pulled out a full-loaded gullwing and proceeded to run the entire course, intentionally leaning so hard that the...

Great point. I have a Honda Rune, which weighs 888 with no bags and no accessories. It's not unreasonable to expect a pair of 250 lb guys (maybe 3 or 4) with gear sitting, standing, and working on an open tailgate.

I believe that who ever wins this next presidential election is going to face an immediate crumbling of the economy. Lowering the interest rate is one of the most used tactics to stimulate economic growth. Incentives are a lesser used tactic, but I think we may see both regardless of who is in...

Great point. We've been waiting 4 years. What's another 1 or 2. Guess I'll have to buy another Tesla in the interim.

I thought I was early. I have 1129xxxxx. I checked a few days ago and came up with 221,000th in line. So clearly not, lol. The spreadsheet says I ordered 11/24/2019.

Thanks for sharing the link. I wonder how much weight it can hold at that angle. I'd imagine flat cargo, thinking Home Depot run, wouldn't put much stress on it. However, a motorcycle could be distributing a couple hundred pounds potentially. Is the tailgate still a ramp, or did that concept die?

That does seem a lot more reasonable.

What are the requirements to get the $7500 tax credit?

Any chance the tailgate will have a horizontal option when open? That would give some extra room for larger bikes or longer cargo. My bike would never fit (over 100.7"), but I wouldn't want to roll an 888lb bike backward out of the bed of any truck!

So the launch event is 11/30, and rumor has it that there are 125k CTs on standby (of which I think they are all tri-motors). I'm not sure how that's the case with all the panel issues Musk was talking about not long ago. Let's say it's true; between all the people who don't want tri-motors and...

I'm sure the info is out there already, but I have not seen a clear picture of the tail lights. I spotted the CT yesterday and accidently caught the taillights illuminated during the day.

Originally, pre-orders were for single, dual, & tri-motors. Then there was an announcement or a Twitter post that said this was being changed to dual, tri, & quad-motors. I read a post here where someone quoted estimated pricing for all four motor setups. What is the latest word in the actual...

I'm late to the reply train, but the truck will come when it's going to come. Delays were expected from the beginning. if mine comes early in 2023, then maybe the tax credits will offset my expected "California Exit Tax." I assume a decent number of people are hoping to replace a vehicle when...

There's more than enough legroom! You can always do the "slow mo" version he posted. It's the only way corset wearing ladies can get in/out. Im not making any guarantees about head safety. We canntake off the roof and you can wear a helmet, lol. Tesla is going to be safer than anything else on...
