    DIY Charger installation

    I did already understand that, but I still appreciate the distinction being pointed out. I likely won't do this for about 6 months to a year since I won't get my truck for 1.5-2 years so the wall connector generation should not be an issue. My house was built in the 70s and sits kind of sideways...

    DIY Charger installation

    I'm just talking about something to mount the wall connector to. It is only a square steel box or pole I can secure to the ground. I forgot about the Tesla pedestal. That may be my best option. I would really like something I can mount two chargers on since I will eventually have the CT and a...

    DIY Charger installation

    I am looking at getting an EV charger installed before the truck shows up. My house setup is odd so I need to run about 150' of cable and mount the charger to a pedestal installed at the corner of my front garden bed by the driveway. Has anyone looked at pedestals? Any recommendations? It seems...

    Anyone selling what your CT will replace?

    Selling my 2001 6.8L V10 Excursion. I drag around a heavy trailer and a bunch of kids with it. I will miss my extra 2 seats, but the cost savings will be worth it. My excursion costs about $0.33 to $0.40 per mile to run, the CT will only cost $0.05 to $0.09 per mile.

    Tesla Cybertruck beats F-150 Lightning and Hummer EV in US electric truck survey

    I think the F-150 will be awesome and do really well. The Cybertruck will still be better in every metric and will probably outsell it for at least the first few years, if not forever. I have little faith in the Electric Tundra, Toyota has been making some pretty dumb decisions regarding BEVs...

    Who Else is Hoping for a Redesign for Wife's Acceptance?

    Have you considered Rivian? If you don't care about price and you are happy to limp along without the supercharger network the Rivian is amazing. Lay down the specs and price side by side and ask her how much she really cares about how it looks. My serious advice is: Test drive it. Take her to...

    How are you planning to pay ... cash, lease, loan?

    I hope you have been "saving" your money in stocks and not just a bank. I had initially planned to pay cash from my TSLA stocks, but then I looked at the numbers. For a rough estimate: $80K at a min 10% growth in stocks (will be much higher than this) will get me $8k the first year. A 5 year...

    Cybertruck Weaponized

    Hackers would be much more likely to hack another vehicle. Tesla would likely be much harder to break than a BMW or VW.

    Everything that's wrong with the Cybertruck

    I'll be replacing a 2001 Ford Excursion v10 6.8 L with a TriMotor CT. Also my little Mazda Tribute. I really hope we get fold down wall, or at least roll down window between the cab and bed. Also, I would like a closer look at pulling a 5th wheel.

    What if your place in line cost $1000.00?

    That is basically what I did. I am buying TSLA stock as much as I can every month until my truck is built. Then I will sell what I need to pay for it. You can always start now, I expect the stock to double again before I get my truck.
