I have had tours of the Fremont factory and the Gigafactory in Reno. Each two or three times. In each case, the subsequent tour was much busier than the previous tour. I would love to tour the Austin Gigafactory and see where the CTs are made and how. It looks quite fascinating. I kept...
I intend this to be just an interesting discussion. But maybe there are known trends I am unaware of.
My question is, how will quality (an ambiguous term) change as the production number goes up?
Will the Foundation models be of higher quality because they will be gone over with a fine tooth...
Is my present gateway already compatible with PowerShare or will I need the PowerShare gateway? I’m unclear on that matter. But I do know my 2nd generation HPWC (Elon “signed”) will need to be replaced with the Universal wall connector. In any event, I could still use some of the $4000 allowance.
The PowerShare feature is very enticing. In preparing for the zombie apocalypse, I have a large solar array and 3 powerwalls. Yet, having the huge Cybertruck battery available to bank and distribute the generated power back will give me a lot of flexibility when the zombies do come.
Now if the...
I went to UTC just to see the Cybertruck and was absolutely NOT disappointed. It is striking in person. Despite all the FUD cast upon it, I came away convinced that this will be a hit and portends a change in the status quo.
It looks a bit similar to the Model X visors. They fold in half and then stow along the A pillar utilizing a magnetic attachment. I haven’t noticed that particular stowing method in previous photos of the CT I’ve seen (though I imagine it would work).
Very nice pictures. At first, I was impressed with the lighting on the side mirror, but it looks like it is a reflection and not seen from other angles. But the rear side light - I believe this is the first time I’ve seen that!
Very cool progress.
A powered frunk would be nice though not essential. Sure it’s a luxury and adds to complexity and cost.
In our Model X, the front driver’s door opens automatically when it senses the key fob ( for those who might not know). And it opens wider when approaching from the rear of the car. The cool...
The forward facing view looks expansive. I see that both front windows do not go fully down leaving a bit of window exposed while both rear windows go down completely.
It also looks like the cup holders are ergonomically placed, unlike my model S and X.
Looking very tight overall.
the matte black is great. I also like the deep matte red. Honestly, it’s will be great to see all the different variations (including plain ole stainless steel!). It is getting very exciting! Let’s get the acceleration to sustainable energy accelerated! Make it so.
