i love that Musk said the production vehicle will be cooler than the concept.
i absolutely hate when car companies make these incredible concepts, then put out some incredibly wimpy production model. ?
Environmental concerns, want a truck to haul stuff, incredible range, fossil fuel companies will be going away and the price of remaining fuel will be sky high while electricity will get less and less expensive. Also, as some have said, probably the last car I will buy (and I expect to live...
The 500+ range is indeed a game changer and is what convinved me to put a deposit down. I live in a hurricane prone region in Texas and the ability to evac on a single charge is desired. Though I think realistically a 250 mile range is probably fine, and resale of any model will likely be...
Change what isn't broken? The darn thing hasn't even been released yet, and this is all conjecture. So nothing is set.
Shortening the vehicle is probably a good idea because it will increase the entry and departure angles, which are important for off-road capability.
It's pretty clear that you are a denier because you use denier catch phrases and talking points that have been refuted time and again. It's evident that the accelerating climate change is caused by humans and is causing damage to the current climate that humans have evolved with and come to...
How many less than affluent Americans buy a decked out Ford F-150?? I live in Texas and they are all over the place. So I imagine a single or double motor Cybertruck will not be a big stretch, especially as most Americans like to incur debt, for better or worse.
mostly agree.
I would point out that Ford did not take bailout money the last time around, but did get a loan from the fed.
nice summary here.... https://www.thebalance.com/auto-industry-bailout-gm-ford-chrysler-3305670#fords-bailout
Ford has quite a few electric and hybrid vehicles, so they...
Not to mention that low drag increases efficiency, maintaining or decreasing as little as possible, the range of the vehicle.
Also, maybe a pop-up camper version could be done!
Folks are talking about not needing a tri-motor because they won't be towing anything. This is not really relevant, because the base CT will probably out tow any current pickup truck, so that's not even an issue
And I agree, get a tri-motor for the awesome range! You could charge that bad boy...
Game changer indeed! That's what convinced me to sign up for the tri-motor. 500 miles is greater range than most gas or diesel powered vehicles, and also makes it easy to plan finding a charger on a road trip.
Which reminds me, chargers are popping up everywhere. Over Thanksgiving I saw...
