The EV pickup market is the entire pickup market to the extent that it outperforms and costs less to own and operate vs conventional pickups. The Cybertruck could have met that challenge as originally spec'd and priced. Elon even called out Ford on pricing and then blew it himself. Someone is...

His package has multiple criteria and stages. Some are far more likely be achieved than others.

National Highway Traffic Safety Administration :LOL:

maybe NHTSA?

I think that's more of an Escher than something that can be built.

These are the folks who told us it would be easy to adapt FSD to for manufacturer who wants to license it. LOLOL

AI has ruined the results of Google, and Bing is much worse, frequently displaying obviously false, and often self-contradictory data (it doesn't qualify as information) in the first frame. Anyone who trusts, relies or depends on this stuff is living in an alternate reality, Bizarro World. o_O

Yep, totally out of touch with the capitalist market system. What do you think powers Google, Facebook, Amazon and most everything else? LOLOL It's not about cross-shopping. Having DeWalt stuff doesn't mean you don't need a Cybertruck, but owning a Cybertruck eliminates the need to spend even...

Yes, they do. That's why DeWalt offers a choice. That's why Cybertruck is among their competition and it would be foolish of them to feature it in their ads. When Tesla offers a choice of Model Y vs Model 3 it is not competing with itself, it is competing with other automakers. Like I said, I...

You're really stretching now. ;) Offering a variety of products is now competing with yourself? LOL Not actually manufacturing the products you put you brand on has practically become the standard these days. That's marketing, and it's very very profitable. Ask Apple. Whether a battery...

That is seriously out of touch with the current marketplace. I tend to agree with you technically and it grates that 1kWh+ battery packs with inverters are now ubiquitously marketed as "generators" but that's the fact of it. They both supply grid-detached electricity and so of course they...

I usually expect you to be better informed. They make money on whatever they sell. Handing any of that market share to competitors reduces, revenues and profits. Obviously, Cybertruck provides grid-detached power that can replace the need for other portable sources for power tools, which is a...

As I posted before, a large, and I suspect more lucrative, part of DeWalt's product line is battery-powered cordless tools, and variations of batteries and chargers which power them. They also sell a selection of fossil-fueled generators. Cybertruck is certainly a competitor in supplying...

I don't think enough to advertise a competitor.

They do make these, plus a whole flock of gas generators, Cybertruck is competition:

DeWalt makes a ton of money though selling cordless power tools and lots of expensive batteries.

In practice it's awesome but not quite that awesome. I had the experience of running the fridge, a fan and some LED lights for a few days when we had the tornado back in May. The problem is that the truck loses a lot just being awake and running the inverter. Oh, also my laptop and phone, but...

If they manage to keep selling them in respectable quantities I believe the look will become normalized into being thought of as merely distinctive as they accumulate on the roads. The presence is already mounting, a lot faster actually than the earliest Tesla models did originally. The...

Yep, they need lower pricing, and Elon knew that from the beginning. I expected the RWD price was just a preliminary introductory number to be ratchetted down after tax credits expired because it looked like it was designed for significant further cost-squeezing. Who knows, maybe their...

Thanks for this. Since the second time they fixed mine it has held, but I will try to remember this if it happens again over the years.
