  1. Buying a Model Y. Website community suggestions?

    Thats my Truck….the one on the left. 2004. 280k miles. I stopped by Tesla of Richmond yesterday after work. The guy working there was very cool. Let me go for a test drive and ran the numbers for me on a new one with the 1.99% financing. The payment is attractive but total debt is not. I’m...
  2. Buying a Model Y. Website community suggestions?

    I'm not a $100K car guy. I reserved my truck thinking I could get into it for 50-60K, and that would be a stretch on the budget. When it was announced at $100K, I decided to dump all my money into my farm and home loan and try to get those paid off completely. Two weeks ago I hit a deer and...
  3. Picked her up yesterday, straight to the mountains!

    Beautiful scenery. That is a very nice road also. How fAr did you drive that day? And how far to gy back to a charger?
  4. Black Matte wrap Cavalier Cybertruck

    I took this picture in Charlottesville yesterday. Note the UVA emblem on the rear bumper. i also hit a deer 10 minutes later and trashed my Nissan. I’m thinking about a Model 3 as a replacement. I drive 180 miles a day and my last couple miles are dirt/gravel. CT is not in budget.
  5. Cybertruck brings the haters...

    I think it’s jealousy and tribal ignorance. You get some really weird reactions from people when you achieve something that they want but feel is out of their reach. I still follow the CT forum. I cant afford it right now but I definitely want one. I wasn't much of a tesla fan until just before...
  6. A kid threw a rock at our truck.

    Probably 20 years ago, I was driving home in the evening from visiting my father. Somebody threw sheets of glass at the car. Hit the passenger windows and doors. Turned out to be a couple kids. Young teenagers flinging a stack of window panes like frisbees at cars. My wife and kids were on the...
  7. It’s bigger than I expected.

    Saw my first CT in the wild, today on Main St in Downtown Culpeper VA. It was taller and bigger than I expected. It was definitely badass.
  8. A friend with RN115016xxx (May, 2021) just got a FS invite

    I was excited before it came out but when I saw the price tag I just mentally moved on. I still follow the info on it because I think it is interesting. I’m still planning to replace my nissan Rogue with a Tesla when I’ve sucked all the life out of it and it’s time for a new ride. But for a...
  9. A friend with RN115016xxx (May, 2021) just got a FS invite

    I got my invitation a few minutes ago. Passing based on price.
  10. Buyer's Remorse?

    My situation changed. Some idiots started writing checks that werent backed by hard assets and devalued our currency. I experienced a few years of hyperinflation that eroded my current buying power by over 20%. I was busy building this And my real purchasing power while I was building dropped...
  11. Only limited edition $99k/$120k Foundation Series Cybertruck’s for 2024?

    Count me among the dreamy eyed who were hoping for a $50-60 K truck. My dodge has 278,000 miles on it. I guess I’ll roll it to 300 before looking for a replacement. CT was gonna be my new farm truck. I’ll probably buy a used Ram or Ford ice truce in a couple years. Maybe I’ll satisfy my EV lust...
  12. Tesla is Not Treating Us Like Customers

    You are not being forced to do anything. You are being given an opportunity to purchase an early model high trim version of the vehicle which is currently valued more, based partly on scarcity. You get to decide if that truck is worth the up cost . I’m priced out. Perhaps that will change...
  13. Foundation Series Remorse

    I have a 90 mile commute. (Each way) I drive a Nissan. “Combined rating 28 mpg. And listed as “up to 33 mpg”. I often get 31 mpg on my commute, driving most of the way at 80mph. my dodge 2004 dodge ram is rated for 17 mpg highway and the best I ever got was 14 mpg driving from Va to Maine...
  14. Foundation Series purchase using Tesla Finance?

    My first house was $72,000 at 6.5 percent on a VA loan. Financing a Cybertruck would be more than that. That blows my mind a little bit. At one point I had 65k in carloans and was shelling out $1,500/month in payments. It was painful but it didn't hit that magic $72k threshold. I know that many...
  15. Why are you buying the Foundation Series model? Help me understand.

    I appreciate all the responses. I don't begrudge anyone spending their money any way they want. I hadn't looked into the value add items. I just saw “special edition” with a $20k price tag. And I couldn't wrap my brain around it. I understand “I want it now” but not for $20k. I ain't...
  16. Why are you buying the Foundation Series model? Help me understand.

    What does the Foundation version offer that is worth an extra 20-30 K except a shorter delivery time. From a business standpoint, its genius. But from a consumer point It doesnt seem so great. Full disclosure, I was planning to buy the 2 motor version. It’s out of my price range now. I still...
  17. Too expensive...not going to be able to order after 4 years

    Same boat for me. We just built finished building our house....for the last 4 years as we built it, I kept saying I was gonna buy the CT, but material costs increased and blew thru our budget and sucked us into debt to get finished., We moved in 6 months ago. With additional debt hanging over...
