Having spent a stupid amount of time comparing this to the other press to the other 9K they've shown/ shipped, I am pretty confident this is in fact the 9K press they teased a few weeks ago about building.
I am not TOTALLY convinces, platen is quite different and no sleeves on far side...
I know this has been vastly discussed, many still believe it is.
There are several seems around the body, where 2 separate pieces meet. See below
There's also the interior shell, the "exoskeleton" as it's been called. Same gaps on the official Tesla.com/cybertruck render, and you can see the...
I don't have time to repost, but check out what I posted on Twitter earlier. These shots were taken Monday in the press extension area. There are no windows, just two bay doors, so this is a very rare look in there. This is where the AIDA gear is starting to flow into. I don't know what all the...
That kinda... that looks like a steel break machine. This COULD be what would bend for doors/ body panels on Cybertruck. I've scrolled back and it's been there awhile, but... ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Assuming since they have parts they’re a couple months into manufacturing this press. Mid summer late summer in Texas for this presumably second press...

These pictures are today, the truck is under a wrap behind a fence. But, the truck is on site.
The truck was originally on display in summer 2020.
You guys don't all think it's one piece of steel all just bent, right? I've had a couple discussions with confused people.
There is in fact a frame under there, the bent steel mounts to the exoskeleton.
Right???
Preorder for the wheels they're making specifically FOR Cybertruck just went live! The pictured truck does bear handles on their site, but you can see a lot of finish work to whisper and side mirrors. Look at the headlights?!
FYI they've had early access many times before to Tesla vehicles, and...
Cybertruck metal oragami body machine? Sacmi Imola makes incredible metal forming equipment(bends to any shape, a press). Their press' are capable of up to 25k tons!!!!!
Peep the weight of this shipment. 334k lbs.
This could be the huge shipments we've been seeing go to fl. 2 in press area...

Assuming these are the final components. Man this thing is huge!
-At least 2 weeks to disassemble
-12 open 40' containers, and 12 self supporting cases(this info is from before the 9K was a...
I kinda wonder, when the configuration goes live in march (manifesting)….
Will They require a larger no refunds amount?
Will we pick our options?
Will we get any kind of “delivery window”?
Wasn’t around for any other model releases. Help me out?
We're getting close. Semi in production, it appears part of the Press is in the US of A..
Here's my guesses on whats in store.
I think they're scrapping cheap semi, Semi will be 500 mile variant excl for now, but that'll improve with battery tech / production cap. 500 mile semi will be $199k...
9K ton is IN USA now!
-Model Y presses weigh roughly 100k LBS for reference. This press weight 175k LBS roughly.
"What about that video that came out last night?" - I'd assume Tesla has some say so on the press surrounding their press they worked together on.
TEXAS DCM means Texas Die Cast...
Got a new iPhone 14 Pro Max
last bought a 12, thought that was gonna be “my key”…..
here’s hoping the 14 Pro Max will truly be, my Cybertruck key! I keep phones for 2 years or so usually.
