Why "many years" when the Model 3 in 6 years has already become ubiquitous? The first Model Y rolled off the line less than 3 years ago and it's now the number 4 selling car in the US. The end is nigh my friend. Yeah I'm waiting for that info too. Price and specs. Hope it's not a dud like...

Yeah I agree on price range. Guessing, I'd say the cheapest you'll be able to get a CT right now will be $60k (interested to see what the actual number will be). Over time they will offer cheaper versions and maybe some day the new price will get down below 50k. Possibly not before my number...

I have heard this explanation before, but today right now I checked on Carvana and right now there is a 2013 Outback and a 2011 Outback selling for $16,990 which is the exact same price I paid. I paid $16,990 in May of 2022 for a 12 Outback. ... I believe the real explanation is that the...

The issue may be carvana. They sold me a car a year ago for 17k plus about 1.5k in expenses. I paid the debt down to 11k but the value they are offering me is only 5.8k. I have put I believe 5,000 miles on the car. Maybe 6,000? I learned a couple lessons. (1) I never plan to buy from...

so okay then why are you saying such dumb things, like that CT will be competing with the F150 lightning or the Chevy ev or whatever? That just misses the whole point. CT will be competing with everything bigger than a Ford Escape, it will be eating the sales from all the ice vehicles that are...

That may or may not be true but I am in the right order of magnitude and that's what I was aiming for. I probably have to watch that video. Elon's also been saying since 2016 that FSD is gonna work "this year" so ... grain of salt for projections... Elon believes in optimistic projections...

You didn't lose much battery capacity?

I don't understand your post. Whatever you said is definitely not the way that I think about money. Your current status with regard to a car payment is just a temporary issue that might prevent you from making a rational decision, but the essential issue is what is a rational decision when...

Gas savings is far more important for me than for other people, but your post underestimated it. Don't forget that tesla is stealing market share from cars that get 35 mpg or 50 mpg like a corolla or a prius, but the vehicles tesla is competing against with the CT get 18 mpg.

wow crissa i'm astonished that you and i are politically aligned. I'm conflicted about elon because i love him and i love his wisdom and i love some of his products but yeah his tweets pissed me off so much that i shut down my 12 year old twitter account so i could stop hearing him. the straw...

Keep in mind the gas savings. For a person like me who wants to commute daily to a city 60 miles away I calculated the gas savings would be about $600. I know your electricity bill goes up but it's a fraction of the cost. So if I save $300 a month on gas (which I deliberately underestimated...

1,000 in 2023 100,000 in 2024 Elon said no significant production in 2023 but first delivery event is in about 2 months. I believe they will begin slowly, producing a few vehicles per day, and they will begin to ramp up production over time. At the end of the year they will be producing maybe...

Well we don't know some things but if we assume the probable truth, that the CT will cost more than it was supposed to cost but not 70K for a base model. If we assume the specs match what was promised but there are some flaws that hardcore truck users notice. Then in that situation we have a...

Those seem like pretty small niche needs within the pickup community. Tesla could leave that market to Ford and focus on serving the needs of the other 98% of pickup owners who don't need those things. Later they could even make specialty versions of their cybertruck to address the super...

Gordon Johnson is very embarrassing to me. I don't understand the reasons for what he is doing. Being so wantonly violent to the truth must harm a man's soul. Maybe he just wants to be famous. I don't believe he's actually making money from being a tesla short seller.

I like your point and I basically agree with it except that we don't really know yet how it will perform as a work truck. I am a little suspicious it might not be as good as a work truck for real work. But let's wait and see. It might be a year and a half before we see a negative review on...

I'm honestly surprised you can be so deluded. Maybe this is Gordon Johnson's secret Cybertruck trolling account. What the tesla detractors do not understand despite all the evidence that comes in day by day, month by month, quarter by quarter, year by year, and decade after decade, is that...

Zuckerberg would win. Musk has immense willpower, he apparently was able to throw a sumo wrestler and he scaled like a telephone pole or something at burning man, but Zuckerberg trains jiu jitsu and even competes against lowly peasants. I hate to say it but Zuckerberg will submit Musk in maybe...

Yeah, like for example it is not really an exoskeleton, it is really a unibody. There is a Munro video about this. And we don't know how strong it will really be. It may be a homerun, it may have some important flaws, it will probably be good overall but with some drawbacks. My theory is...

Well the Lightning is a good truck for Ford to sell provided they don't sell too many since they're losing so much money on them. The Lightning is like the little moan a fighter makes after Nate Diaz tags them in the gut. Sure. Sell more than. I believe it will sell more than the F150...
