That's pretty impressive. I was confident the SS panels could take the beating as the CT can survive class 4 hail. I wasn't sure about the windshield and glass roof.

I don’t necessarily agree with your timeline BUT I definitely see this “upsell” e-mail being sent to all $59,990 buyers. 2027 delivery date reservation holders would be the most tempted by this offer.

Unlike the $70k RWD fiasco Tesla finally hit the Cybertruck sweet spot regarding MSRP and standard features.
Here is a pic of the Premium rear LED light bar. I believe the $69,990 trim is missing the middle LED’s and just has the two small LED’s near the bed sides.
