I think I like the thinner look better also wouldn’t thinner be more durable less likely to break and have a bunch of scratches that plastic has overtime? Steel trumps plastic ?
OK. Interesting.
So this gets to one concern is that I get called asked to place my order/configuration and let’s say at that point in time there is one configuration available. Let’s say it’s a two motor version.
Am I taking a guess on what might be available in a three or four motor version...
As we look forward to a late Q3 delivery event will we learn the specs of all available cybertruck configurations at that time or only the trims available at launch?
I’m sure it has been covered but can someone remind me how 84 inches width (without mirrors) is what appears to be the common estimate?
on one hand, it makes sense to support the 35 inch tires especially if EM wants this Baja capable.
However, it goes against the fact vehicle is believed to be...
If we’re talking about EV programs in general, then I agree with some of your points in that regard. However, for talking about electric trucks, then I think that’s the pot calling the kettle black. I don’t think my post was clear, but my references more specific to trucks not EVs in general as...
Hey, you’re entitled to your opinion but I’m not sure why we are hating on Ford
Elon respects them and they are delivering product
Tesla’s goal is to get EV’s manufactured at scale by all companies
considering there’s very few EV trucks out there I think only two right now Ford being one...
So we’re throwing shade at Ford for their ramp up ?
They’ve been shipping electric trucks now for over a year and they announced it a year and a half after Tesla did.
I saw a one at the trail head yesterday - looked great
I’m not sure, but maybe has something to do with the fact that most trucks have different length beds you can choose from in the same platform?
also, many trucks used to have different cab options no cab plus cab, super cab etc. so maybe all these configurations make it difficult
Just guessing...
?. That’s all good.
The ram TRX is even wider at 88 inches. I believe it’s the widest production truck made aside from whatever commercial/monster categories that may be out there. As a point of reference the original hummer H1 military vehicle we all know is 86.5 inches wide.
I highlight this...
Or maybe we own and understand the vehicles that the CT is being compared against:

Ford raptor with is published since the truck has been around for like 9+ years 86.5-86.6 inches wide, not counting the mirrors, Ford F150 and every other full-size truck that is not a desert runner which the cyber truck is modeled after is 80 inches.
Doesn’t just about every other truck made have a full-size spare?
I would take that over a mid gate. Yes, it can be added in the bed or as a swing out
But that should really be included if they are really intending to sell a truck.
Yes, I agree with that. I don’t think it’s necessarily volume. I would focus it more on total revenue.
So to your point, if batteries are a constraint and a mid range version generates more revenue than a long range because of more units/revenue , that would make sense
Uh. NO.
they will only reduce price when they can get production up.
it’s not a charity.
they are the most profitable scale manufacturer of autos in the world
this is why the first units to come out would likely be expensive higher spec units ,
But hey, let’s see
