That is a good point of reference, thanks. I did not realize the difference in interior space before this. Backseat space is not a dealbreaker to me, we don't have to deal with baby seats anymore and rarely haul more than 1 person back there. So this doesn't change anything for me but still...

If I'm not mistaken, there has always been a delay between the start of production and deliveries, like a month or more. If nothing else, they need to go through the homologation process before the vehicles can be sold.

I hope in my heart he's right and they will start early 2023 but I am ready for anything.

That document (Auto Forecast Solutions spreadsheet) which has been going around for a while now mentions October 2nd 2023. That organisation (AFS) does not have any more idea than you or I when the Cybertruck will start production. Their business is to try to Forecast but I wouldn't put too much...

The ice situation is the one thing that worries my spouse after she saw the no door handle thing on stage thursday. She flat out said "You can't buy that! when we get ice, you won't be able to get in!". But my guess is they thought of that very early on in the design phase. They have a long...

I get where you're coming from. The anxiety is real. I originally ordered a dual motor on november 22nd 2019 but changed it to Tri-Motor a few hours later. One of my reasons was I believed (and still believe) that Tesla will prioritize Tri motor in the beginning. If the past is any indication...

To me it's not a big enough deal to warrant such tricks from Tesla. According to the results of the scenarios I plotted out (view page 1 spreadsheet), the luxury tax would only affect the Tri-motor if you choose the full self driving option. And the price would only go up between 500$ to about...

You never know but I'm guessing Tesla has no interest in hand building production cars. They have hand built at least one prototype and maybe they'll make a few more but their focus will be on building "the machine that makes the machine" (AKA Giga Texas). As Elon said many times, production is...

Yep. Things shall go wrong of course. I'm about 80k in line but live in Canada so I will definitely not be among the first to get mine. I'm thinking after 6-8 months of production (hoping to get mine in approximately that timeframe after they start delivering in the US), they will probably be...

Right now the Model 3 is still the best selling Tesla. Last quarter they delivered about 60k Model Ys and about 120k Model 3s. https://electrek.co/2021/04/26/tesla-model-3-becomes-best-selling-premium-sedan-in-the-world/

Agree 100%. Nothing changed here. First this data is not first hand so it's not reliable. Unless we hear something directly from Tesla, I'm not getting excited one way or another. Second, we knew for a while that 99.9% of people wouldn't get their cybertrucks in 2021. We knew for sure that...

I did some Excel calculations using the conversion rate that Tesla uses as of today on their other vehicles. According to the results (view link below for full spreadsheet), the luxury tax would only affect Tri-motor if you chose the full self driving option. And the price would only go up...

Yep... a picture is worth a 1000 words!

Probably, but I was thinking Bloomberg articles have got to be fact checked seriously before publication no?

" But the Austin factory, which Musk estimates will be completed before another plant under construction in Berlin..." That part kinda suprises me. I had not seen or heard Elon say he thinks Texas will be done before Berlin... Looking at both sites drone footage I don't see how Texas can be...

Joe has the best Texas giga drone videos. He has incredible construction knowledge so you can learn a lot watching his stuff. He doesn't just film, he also explains a little bit each time. You can see a lot of time and effort is being put into his work.

Elon said the following on december 7th: "Min height is below 75 inches when air suspension set to low. Will post exact number soon." My guess: we can probably get at least 2 inches lower than the normal height which is 75 inches. 2 inches is what Ram's air suspension allows you to get for...
