    Elon confirms Tesla Cybertruck will have yoke steering wheel and will be a ‘tech bandwagon’ (11/29/21)

    Having a yoke steering wheel (oxymoron) doesn't bother me as there are millions of planes flying with not many problems. The CT was supposed to be revolutional by design so all te speculation and right now that's all it is, will solidify once the production models roll out the factory. Every...

    Why the Tesla Cybertruck will outsell the F150 Lightning, Rivian R1T

    Batteries and charging or discharging has always been the hardest problem to solve. There have been great improvements and there will need to be more before an EV will be viable. I am confident that this issue will be resolved hopefully sooner than later.

    Cybertruck vs R1T vs F150 Lightning : Ben Sullins' thoughts after riding in each

    My 5 trucks and numerous truck experience has shown me that you can't please everyone! The CT by all I've read ir the people on this forum has shown me the CT is as close to a true pleaser as you can get. I'm hoping all the supply chain problems can be resolved in due time. I can only hope the...

    Edison Future...love the bed cover

    As an owner of 5 pickups over some 30 years I have had so many different types of covers from camper shells, tonneau covers, and currently a fiberglass "lid", I have not found any of them completely usable. The closest type was a hard folding type that that "folded" back to the truck cab that...

    How can i change my order from dual motor to tri motor

    I changed from a single motor to the dual all wheel drive once I saw the way the manufacturing would follow. I am in no hurry but I would like it by this decade. All you have to do is go to the Tesla site and follow the threads to change or update your order. Now I did that about 9 months ago...

    Does The Proposed EV Tax Incentive Leave The Tri-Motor Cybertruck With A $12,500 Disadvantage?

    Must I remind you the word PROPOSED which means there is room for discussion on this point. And always remember that we order cars or trucks based upon the need at the time, although when I sold cars at a dealership we based it on emotion. Either way it's the same thing .

    How can it be so affordable?

    The Y model is in high demand so intuitively the accountants are saying price up. If you were the only dealer in town where everyone wants the model you sell that's how prices are set. Demand high, prices go up.

    RN relative position about 2.5 million - I think it's rather pointless

    There will be some who won't take possession. That's the hope I'm waiting for. I'm around 400K

    Let's pretend I have no clue what you mean by "grid charging". A lot of people outside Texas at least are on the grid besides your local power company. If you meant grid integration and the load on power systems, that I understand.

    Well I don't know how my MDX knows it I don't think it's the 1 of 4 cameras but the folded mirrors light up when I have my key fob within a few feet. Am I to assume that there will be only your phone to let you in? I don't know about you guys but my phone history and reliability suck.

    Rear Wheel Steering

    If this comes true, it will make backing a trailer or boat a breeze! It's a game changer. GM had that fir a while on the pu's but was too costly for them. Cornering and parking will benefit too.

    Any updates?

    The solar panels on our house are fixed facing east. They are a 4 KW array and we are hooked to the grid. On a hot stretch and we have plenty in Vegas we still only pay the meter fee $14. Point is as long as sun hits those wafers it excites them and generates electricity. If you had a smaller...

    Anyone selling what your CT will replace?

    I live in a state that has sales tax on a new vehicle and the trade in reduces that tax so I'm keeping my trusty Dodge until then.
