Nice! Glad to see Elon spending time with X. Wonder why his other kids don’t join them?

Are some of the CyberTruck’s finishes shinier than others? I don’t remember the Delorean being so shiny.

? Gotta love Sia, but no. If this is going to be advertised all of the gun nuts are going to come out of the woodwork and try to prove that their gun can penetrate the cabin (insert dick jokes here). I’m pretty sure CyberTruck owners don’t want to be shot at on a regular basis. They should have...

Interesting. Mounting it down this low might help with drag. Then you can open the tailgate to access the vault.

I was thinking the same thing. That angle doesn’t look good. Imagine something long and flat on top of there. The wind is going to slide up the windshield and push right underneath it causing all kinds of drag.

I think Tesla will offer both. The Dual-Motor will have a range of 350 miles and qualify for the $7,500 rebate and the Tri-Motor will have a range closer to 500 miles and not qualify for the rebate.

I hate washing my car. It wastes so much water.

I have never heard this expression either.

Geesh. Maybe I misunderstood the margins of the entire company vs. each vehicle, but during the earnings call they said that it costs $37,500 to build a Tesla. I’m not sure if this is an average or what, but currently a Standard Range Model 3 costs $38,990. That’s a profit margin of about 4%...

I’m going to assume this is a joke. ? I feel like corporate greed only really started getting out of control in the 80’s. You know when greed was considered good. It was probably around the same time American manufacturing jobs started being shipped overseas. Believe it or not, but CEOs...

Ah, I see. I didn’t realize they weren’t on the list yet. We know that batteries for Teslas are coming out of Texas and Nevada and I thought there was a pivot a few months back to get lithium from Australia, but the processing of the lithium seems to be the missing information. Elon has been...

The CyberTruck should be fully made in the US with US sourced batteries. It will qualify for the full tax credit. The entry level Model 3 and Y might lose half the credit because they use LFP batteries that are probably sourced in part from China.

No single motor, no quad motor. You’ve got a standard range dual motor and a performance tri motor.

Yes, this shouldn’t be advertised. Humans are stupid.

I think Elon is worried that if they price it too high it won’t sell due to high interest rates and people will cancel their reservations or try to sell them. On the other hand, if they lower the price too much for the sake of affordability they’ll be taking massive losses on a brand new...

Yep, at least we have a date now.

That’s unfortunate and doesn’t bode well in the pricing department. I guess the question now is how much of a loss are they willing to take? Is it even worth ramping up the CT that quickly over other vehicles that are selling well and have higher margins, like the Model Y and 3? Should Tesla...

I think you should have to sign something that says you won’t sell it for a year. I hate scalpers.

Yes, just like 4680 Model Ys. Employees first. It’s like an extended beta test. It’s how Tesla figured out that the 4680’s were no more energy dense than the 2170’s. They’ve improved them now for the CT.
