It will probably take the same place as the base model 3 and Y. Basically the same vehicle - just less on the underside. to hit the lower price point. This would also be to keep the production costs down by keeping the majority of the assembly line the same as the AWD and CB. That isn't to...
RN 113806xxx here - I reserved on 11/30. Based upon the rate of invites and potential ramps, I am estimating my invite should arrive around mid-year with a fall to late-year delivery. That would put RN1131xxxxx series invites hitting later in the fall. Depending upon the model selected, you...
Love this idea!
The 48V wire is in the right-front wheel well and is accessible behind the panel in the frunk.
I was thinking about a cross bar for antennas - simply to get them higher, but agree that my 2M/70cm antennas will most-likely be on the frunk.
I also think that nice open area in...
I would check on the roof glass of the CT before going that route. If there is any metallic tinting in or on the glass, it will cause issues - probably leading to the inside cable and coil acting as your longwire antenna.
They obviously do not know the details of the CT and its laminated glass. The punch tool just is not effective on laminated glass as it is on single-layer temperated glass found on most vehicles. The punch usually makes them shatter instantly - they were probably a bit frustrated from the...
Its called a "punch". It is a triangular-tipped tool used to break windows in case of emergency. They usually modify them to fit on a glove so they can just hold there hand up to the window with a bit of pressure to break the window. Of course, the laminated glass of the CT does not respond...
I've been looking at this myself and was able to discerne a few things.
It mounts to the L-Track and sits right on top of the track in the front half of the bed when closed. The tonneau closes over it. When opened, it runs the length of the bed on top of the L-Track with legs that rest on the...
This has been a long four+ year wait....
Most of you have me by a week and a half - it took me until 11/30/2019 to make my reservation (RN113086xxx). By all accounts, and the current fluctuating rate of invites, it may be another six months before I get that far and probably another year...
Congrats! You weren't driving down O'Connor in Las Colinas the other morning, were you? Saw one drive by on my morning walk with the dog (and another in Southlake the weekend prior).
There have been some good options presented. I think there will be a number of options that will eventually work themselves out, especially in the aftermarket community.
Going the route of 120v (or even 240V) is an option. While the 48V open connections may not be an option (directly). You...
I drive a vehicle until the wheels fall off. Current vehicle is a 2000 Ford F-150 Lariat extended cab I bought new 24 years ago. It served me well, has been all across the country, meets my needs, but looks like hell after 20 years living outside in the Texas sun.
I want to keep the utility I...
We are pretty close. I am RN113086xxx, ordered 11/30/2019.
I was looking at the RNs and order dates on the tracking sheet. If the ramp starts in 30 days or so, I am estimating we receive invites to order in about six months, so late summer or early fall. That would put it in our hands...
2000 Ford F-150 Lariat I bought new back in 2000.
I drive things until the wheels fall off. It has been across the country (sometimes with a camper), taken me on CAP missions, and even to east Texas for the shuttle recover effort.
20 years outside (did not fit in the garage) in the Texas...
