I went to take a demo drive of a model y because I'm not going to buy my cyber truck for a couple years until the price goes down. Boy was I shocked when I walked in the showroom. It's all roped off and you can't sit in it, but she's a beauty. I was expecting to be able to get a point of...
GM built the E-Hummer. Very low volume vehicle with lots of costs in development. So it has been done. I personally think they did it as a halo vehicle and it was kinda dumb.
That's soo much better than white. White reflects on windows really bad. if you don't believe me, just put a white piece of paper on the dash of your car and look at the inside of the windshield. Very distracting to me.
Yep, my Pacifica PHEV gets a fillup overnight with our standard 120v outlet. That's about 30 miles. Sure 240v would be way faster, but overnight is enough time to fill it with only standard house plug.
I am glad Rivian is around. I worry about how they can survive with making vehicles at a loss. Yes Tesla lost money for several years. But, the reason they didn't make a profit was because they were spending massive amounts of money on Service Centers, Supercharging stations, and expanding. I...
My RN is 11278----. Here's a screengrab of my Tesla page. I'm in Oxnard and have never owned a Tesla. I really don't understand Tesla passing you up for me. Sorry bud. And no, I'm not buying.
At $100, 4 years and all these shenanigans. It's not cool. But, if folks had gave them $5000 4 years ago. There would be hell to pay!!!
I really wonder about reservations for the Semi, and Roadster. One can only hope, that Tesla has communicated better with them.
The person you are replying to AJ Delange, was a well known member of this form for many years. He was a retired electrical engineer with lots of knowledge. I have wondered for quite a while what happened to him. He was last here Jan. 5 2023. I even Googled him a few months ago. And lots of info...
The answer to this came to me during the night last night. I too wondered why I was chosen at 40,000 on the list. I really don't know how my name came up, but there's a line for these vehicles and the people at the very front of the line are not nearly as worried about when their cyber truck...
My thoughts have changed for Tesla, since the delivery event. First, they didn't produce the CT with specs and features they said it would have, and then they jacked up the price. I don't care if Elon didn't say I promise. If you watch the reveal, Elon's exact words when they posted the prices...
They advertised a limited edition of 1000. It would be illegal to build more than 1000 of each of them. It is interesting though, that after seeing this thread today. I checked my email, and there was the invitation to purchase a founders edition. I'm supposed to be at around 40,000 on the...
All this contemplation on a vehicle that you haven't even sat in. And you said it's not a need, it's a desire. What does the rest of your family think. My wife says no and she wouldn't drive it mostly because of all the attention. In addition to the $7500 fed tax break, there are state and...
Interesting, and thought-provoking response. I saw that the Cybertruck has 3 electric motors for SbY, totaling around 5 hp. And without 48v architecture probably wouldn't have happened. being adaptable for RHD is very helpful. When I read this response, I wondered about how FSD or Autopilot...
Your comment made me do a Google search. Remember a while back the Cadillac lyric sold out within hours of when they supposedly took reservations. Well within 100 mi of me right now there are 18 used Cadillac lyrics on CarGurus, sitting on dealership lots. No telling how many new ones. So yeah...
