    2025 Cybertruck now listed as eligible for $7500 federal tax credit

    Not only that. But, once the word gets out. why would anyone want to pay $78,990 for a 24 model in January of 2025, when they can get a 25 model for $71,490 (prices based on $1K off referral) . I would think Tesla is going to come up with reduced pricing for 2024 models to avoid problems...

    2025 Cybertruck now listed as eligible for $7500 federal tax credit

    I can't imagine any benefit to waiting over a year to file taxes. When I bought the MY, I paid cash. So my sales tax fee, and registration, was based on the $7500 lower price for the vehicle. I've heard a lot of people use the $7500 as part of a down payment. Also, some people with lower...

    2025 Cybertruck now listed as eligible for $7500 federal tax credit

    Your comment implies that you think the $7500 tax credit gets taken off your taxes like they used to. That is no longer the case. Now the $7500 is applied during the sale process. So it lowers the price of the vehicle by $7500. Way better deal. It does seem like there will be a wait time until...

    Cybertruck wrapped in Matte Ghost Metal Green PPF

    That looks clean, and subtle.

    A 'can of gas' in the bed of the CT (or the kW equivalent)...

    Kyril, you have lots of good questions. I don't spend much time on this forum anymore because instead of paying double what I was told the price of my Cybertruck would be. I purchased a Model Y, last January. I had lots of questions and interest in charging and batteries also. By far, this video...

    Canada and Mexico Order Invites Have Begun! + U.S. Reservations No Longer Required!

    I remember Dec. 8th when I received my invite. Most people thought Limited-Edition meant 1K. Now the implication is the first year. :unsure:

    WhistlinDiesel Cybertruck Durability Torture Test #1 (vs F-150)

    Did you not see that huge Jump? BTW, word on the street is that if you want to jump your CT, the Vault cover should be in stored position. :ROFLMAO:

    Towing Torture Test: F-150 vs. Cybertruck.... One Overheated, One Effortless

    Interestingly, the F150 averaged 5.4 mpg over the 16-mile round trip. This was a slow slog up 8 miles and then back down. The gas powered vehicle uses fuel the whole time, albeit WAY less going downhill. But it's using engine braking and brakes the whole way down. The Cybertruck used MASSIVE...

    Charging the battery

    Part of the learning curve with EV's is charging. It's nothing like gas, in that the vehicle will determine, on its own, how fast it will accept energy. The rate is constantly changing. You want the faster rates when you're on a trip. So first off, always have the supercharger you're going to in...

    Cutting/Bleeding edges on Cybertruck is side effect of using 1.4mm HFS instead of 3mm thickness?

    I got to spend some time looking over a new Cybertruck in a driveway yesterday, and being a retired sheet metal worker the much thinner stainless steel, and the raw edges were mind blowing. First, I was surprised by design choices with raw edges pointing forward into the wind between the sides...

    PowerShare + Cybertruck saved us a 24 hour power outage

    This was a major plus for the Cybertruck. I remember a couple of years ago Elon was asked about having this in the Cybertruck, and he basically balked at the idea. He originally didn't want the Cybertruck to be capable of this, which upset a lot of people on here at the time. This is one of the...

    For those who though that Foundation was really limited to 1000's units....here is your proof that its not....

    This is exactly my thoughts also. I was emailed on Dec. 8th to configure my Founders Edition. My thoughts were that Tesla just made it easy for me to say no. I figure in about 5 years the Dual motor will be around $50-60K. I was driving a nice 2015 Avalon, but I had money saved up for my $50K...

    Newbie EV questions

    I'm not on this forum much anymore, because I decided to not buy a Cybertruck, and bought a Model Y Long Range in January. Anyway, this is a very good explanation by Crissa. I am retired and don't drive much daily, however I park on my driveway and leave Sentry mode on, and have the car set to...

    Was Elon thinking about repurposing this Stainless Steel?
