wait until you have to do an emergency maneuver and try to grab the wheel that isn't there. Think of the last time you had to turn the wheel fast, for me at least, its hand over hand, for example steering out of a slide or skid. cant do that with the yoke. That being said, i am also a pilot...

This is what it should be

Its an intriguing concept. I am wondering (and this is not just about your design) if any canopy will work on the CT? there does not seem to be any place you can attach it. I dont think clamps would work as you could potentially bend the track the rolling vault cover goes into.

I honestly think it was a big mistake for Elon to state this during the reveal. You know people are just crazy enough to test it. "Hey bubba, my trucks bulletproff wanna see? Hold my beer!" you also know the liability lawyers are just waiting for the first incident where someone gets shot...

Im still curious how the tri will be setup. Dual motors in rear and one in front or vice versa?

That is assuming they win. Could be just a disasterous in bad press if they came in last or the truck broke down. As for the advertising they don't really need it. They don't spend on advertising now and Tesla is a household name.

As Elon said "Ford killed SEX"

What would be the upside for Tesla to do it? Offroad racing is a very small market. Tesla isn't involved in racing anywhere that I am aware of. So why start now?

I am certainly hoping Tesla is forthcoming with this info. Unlike cars, Trucks have a huge aftermarket following for things like brush guards, winch bumpers, etc.

I would not be surprised if they were going to put a loop in underground from the employee parking lot to the plant. Maybe have multiple stops inside the plant for workers to get to and from their parking lots quicker and to work faster. Think subway

Think this highlights that, for us at least, it's just guesswork. Only ones who know for sure is Tesla, and they are not saying.

This is what happens when you thumb your nose at federal regulations and turn everything over to for profit companies. but it's the wind turbines fault!

if the model Y is any indication I would guess it would be similar (but beefier) on the CT

A concept car that will never see the light of day on the production floor.

I would think they would keep it all SS for the strength and dent resistance. Those of us who have owned pickup trucks know the tailgate is usually the first component beat up by tools and whatnot. We are also on the assumption it can be removed. Unlike other trucks, the taillights are part of...

He's kind of become our generations Howard Hughes. Which I applaud. More billionaires did what Musk does imagine what we could accomplish as a country.

Would you be happier if it was a Fox News article? Maybe Tucker Carlson can do an hour long rant about how it's all a deep state conspiracy?

Yes, but my question is what will happen with the CT and those of us who preordered? Will one of our variants just disappear one day before we get the CT and have to change (and maybe pay more) for another variant

Curious how many changes will happen to the CT? This is the 2nd time they have killed a model Y variant (but then brought one back) https://www.teslarati.com/tesla-modely-y-lr-rwd-canceled-fsd-price-honor/ Tesla enthusiasts who pre-ordered the Model Y Long Range Rear Wheel-Drive variant are...

if we are talking about an egg :) now the yoke is kinda rectangular. I for one hope this dose not make it into production cars. After hearing Elon tweet the car would automatically go into drive or reverse and automatically use turn signals based on guesses. I am not all that thrilled. When i...
