You could say the same about the Silverado! They've only made 1,500 of them, and only the work truck / fleet version. Other trims essentially don't exist. https://gmauthority.com/blog/gm/chevrolet/silverado/silverado-ev-electric/chevrolet-silverado-ev-sales-numbers/

How did you feel about the amount of space/headroom sleeping in the vault? (Thanks for writing up your experience)

Super interested to see what they announce. IMO would be a flop if they show a strange looking concept vehicle with no steering wheel and make a lot of vague promises about the future. On the other hand, it would be very exciting if: - They put forward a reasonably realistic vehicle, not a...

You mean by releasing the range extender which allows more range than the Silverado? Not sure why you're pretending this option doesn't exist.

As someone who was very excited about the 500-mile range spec, It's tempting to favor the Silverado now. But here's the thing, what I was excited for was an EV truck that is so *efficient* it could achieve 500 miles of range with a battery that isn't comically heavy and bulky. Unfortunately...

I think you missed the sarcasm.

You bring up a good point about Elon being distracted and perhaps not leading Tesla in the way he used to. But that makes me wonder about a potential catalyst for the stock: if the BOD were to approve a new compensation package for Elon, that could do a lot to improve the situation. Never a...

Ah, so we are future-looking then? Interesting. ?

You perfectly describe the prevailing narrative (expectation) about Tesla. It assumes tesla's growth story is over. That may be the current expectation, but it is short term thinking. When expectations are for no growth, and all the sudden something changes to show promise of strong growth to...

Stocks (especially this stock) perform based on expectations, not on the reality of the earnings. Q1 expectations are extremely low. The word bloodbath has been used so many times already. Seems ripe for an upside surprise. Outlook also has a big role in this. The Q4 outlook was basically worst...

Very helpful data. Thanks so much for compiling and sharing. Excited to see the numbers at 65psi.

I've been wondering about this. I live atop a hill and have to drive down on steep snowy/icy roads all winter long. Weight = traction when the road is flat. But on a steep hill, the weight works against you. My fear is that the CT will be more prone to sliding while heading down hill, and more...

I don't think there are going to be very many people who qualify for this. Which is definitely a good thing. But I'm not against the idea of rewarding long term shareholders for standing by the company through all the ups and downs.

I totally agree. I'm hoping someone will compile a spreadsheet that lists all the range data we have so far, and the conditions. Would be very helpful. I haven't had time to compile it. Maybe someone else does? For example my use case is similar to yours...240 mile one-way drive. But in my case...

I would have thought so too, but I know multiple Alaskans who received their invite emails to order FS. We're as far as one can possibly get from a service center. I guess Tesla doesn't care this go around?

A few weeks ago, my power steering went out on my Honda while my wife was driving. While she probably *could* have still turned the wheel, it was hard enough for her that she could not steer at all. Major safety concern. Turned out to be a blown belt, basically guaranteed to happen eventually...

I have seen so many F150's and Silverados slide off the road, spin out, or get stuck in the 3 weeks since this video came out. You know what happens? People help pull them out. Not a single person pulls out their camera and yells something obnoxious. I hope to see the same kindness among truck...

With the 4680 model Y, the charging curve was also less than expected. I thought we had evidence Tesla was software-limiting the charge rate, and it would likely improve over time as they got more data on how the packs were performing. Did that ever play out? Something similar might be...

The review video is great, relatively balanced. But definitely short sighted, a few things stand out: 1) The Rivian toneau cover disaster. That's a big deal! Why choose the Rivian without a working toneau? Also this doesn't bode well for reliability. 2) CT range and lack of autopilot are the...

Food for thought: I just encountered two Lightning's parked in the lot at Eaglecrest ski area in Juneau. They both had great snow tires installed. Also both had sandbags sitting in the bed. I thought that was interesting. Does this mean the lightning wasn't performing well in the snow...
