Unlike traditional dealerships Tesla does not add ADM on vehicles that are in high demand. There will be zero price gouging by Tesla when the CT goes on sale. The Cybertruck is going to be hot commodity and Tesla could easily tack on $10-$20k over sticker. I am confident that some of the early...
The HP and torque ratings of the popular Dual Motor version are EXTREMELY impressive according to a Top Speed article;
“The mid-range model will be a dual-motor AWD truck. It will deliver at least 300 miles of range, it will hit 60 mph in 4.5 seconds and tow up to 10,000 pounds.
Both, of...

Polishing stainless steel to a mirror like finish takes some effort, even more so than aluminum because it's a harder metal. A small Airstream travel trailer will take roughly 200 hours of labor. Anyone plan on going this route instead of...
Tesla will be throwing insurers and body shops a curve ball with the stainless steel Cybertruck.

That’s my hunch anyway. My prediction is that Cybertruck reservations will exceed one million soon after Jay’s Tesla TV episode debuts.
The Cybertruck will be a disruptor in the full size pickup truck segment when it hits the streets. Every high level automotive executive who is in charge of...
With the off-the-hook demand for the Cybertruck I bet that an all electric light commercial Cybervan is in the design stage. The market is currently untapped for an all electric off-road capable van that can be used for commercial work, camping, passenger carrying, etc.
The Exoskeleton construction concept is brilliant. The body is the most fascinating part of the truck to me. My guess is that Tesla will use robotic TIG welders to manufacture the unique 30x SS monocoque exoskeleton of the Cybertruck.
I have a strong suspicion that the Cybertruck will be a...
Hello members. The CT body panels will be made of 3mm thick 30X stainless steel which is ROUGHLY 1/8” of inch. For a visual of how thick the Cybertruck SS body panels will be simply stack 2 quarters together. I can see why Tesla says it’s dent resistant.
What’s your top five? There are many for me but I will list my top 5 reasons in order:
#1: 3mm thick stainless steel exterior (with no paint to maintain!)
#2: Futuristic styling (The design is absolutely brilliant)
#3: All electric drivetrain with Single/Dual/Tri motor option
#4: It’s a full...
I think I have become obsessed with the Cybertruck. I am absolutely smitten with this light commercial vehicle and can’t seem to get it off my mind. It’s almost as if the CT design and engineering team built my dream vehicle.
My favorite features include the futuristic and unconventional...
I can see this happening after a few years of production when hundreds of thousands of CT’s are in the hands of new owners. With all of the trucks leaving the assembly plant with bare stainless steel body panels all of the non-wrapped Cybertrucks are going to look identical:)
The pandemic looks like it will run another 6-8 weeks and is affecting employment at Tesla as demand plummets.
