November 22, 2019 reservation holder here. I placed my $59,990 order as soon as I read the news. I had to read the MSRP and specifications 2X to make sure I wasn’t dreaming as I had just woken up. My gut told me that a lower priced CT trim would be coming in 2026 and it was right on the money...

Tesla's ordering page now says 6-8 weeks for my zip code.

A VIN check would probably reveal it had a branded/salvaged title. If it’s too good to be true…

The $82k MSRP is the #1 barrier to entry for those interested in a Cybertruck. With a median yearly income of $62k the Cybertruck is well beyond the reach of the average American.

VW leadership may have gotten nervous about entering the low volume BEV pickup truck space. The vast majority of reservation holders reserved the gas/electric option. Maybe they are delaying production until SS battery cells are in volume production. They are the holy grail for mass EV adoption.

Similar to the $99 monthly FSD subscription It's another revenue stream for Tesla. The money taken in far outweighs the claims that get paid out.

Buy backs help with customer satisfaction. Many owners order another CT with the funds soon afterwards.

If it were significant Tesla would request another EPA range test.

For $100 I think it’s worth a shot. You can always return for a refund if it doesn’t live up to your expectations. “Are you dissatisfied with your order? Do you have a problem with your item or would you like to make a return? Don't worry, we have the right solution for this as well. In order...

The best PPF wrap that I have seen to date on a Cybertruck is Legend HTM-40 clear 40% tinted. @AIDente has great taste😁

Don't forget the ”blue” structural adhesive change on the assembly line. No more SS panels coming loose. AI… “Tesla is updating the Cybertruck with a new, robust structural adhesive—specifically identified as Fuser 2098 or BETAMATE 2098—to fix issues where exterior stainless steel trim panels...

Low CT production makes it a tough business case for aftermarket companies.

Tesla needs to manufacture a light "off-road" AWD Model Y to help it compete. Think larger fender flares, a slight suspension lift, 18" off-road oriented wheels and tires, front skid plate, etc.

I would love to know what happens these lemon law buy backs with branded titles.

I feel for you. We are currently experiencing an auto technician shortage nationwide. The experienced techs who know how to troubleshoot have retired, switched to another profession (due to frustration over pay and working conditions) or have hung up their own shingle. All of the younger folks...

Exact same question I had. Were the doors, fenders and can-trail roof section aligned properly? Any significant panel gaps between the SS panels? I read that the 1.8mm and 1.4mm SS panels need to be over bent from specifications because SS has a tendency to spring back once it's bent.

The Slate will probably MSRP for the mid to high 20's. Add some must have options like the large battery pack, power windows, etc. and it climbs quickly. I don't see many buyers choosing the standard 150 mile battery pack which equates to roughly 110-120 of "real world" range.

Congrats! My zip is showing a 4-6 week wait for delIvery. Did you choose the early delivery option?

Reservations say it all. VW needs to drop the all electric version due to low demand and simply manufacture the EREV version. 500 mile range solid state batteries are still not a reality yet. The BEV option can be added later as battery cell technology advances.

The pitiful 150/240 mile battery range, lack of AWD and questionable value proposition are going to hurt sales. I do love the back to basics approach however. Buyers can purchase a brand new 5-seat Maverick crew cab hybrid pickup w/PW and PDL for $28,145 AND get an easy 500 miles of range with...
