    What's a deal-breaker for you?

    If the top spec costs a lot more than the Model X Plaid, yeesh. How much more, exactly? I don't know. But, at that point I have to start asking myself some serious questions . . . . . . like, if my wife would ever bother looking up the price.

    Cybertruck spotted driving in CA (4/20/23) - follow footage video!

    If they're using spaceX stainless they probably won't add the step of making the stainless sheets thinner since it'll add to the price. They'll just use what they already have if Elon's "best part is no part/why add a process" mentality is true. And why are people worried about the taillights...

    How long will you wait for your Cybertruck?

    Being that there's nothing else on the market relevant to me, I'll be waiting until it comes out. I'm the guy who basically wants an EV Ram TRX. I don't tow but I do off road a little. After getting a MYP in November I'm not going back to ICE, nor dealerships, and the Tesla charging network...

    The next 6 months will be epic for Tesla

    I want you to look at sales numbers from the past 7 years and tell me a single automaker that can take an additional 5% in sales losses to the chin and be A-OK. I smell somebody who thinks the most Googled vehicle on the internet with literally a million pre-orders won't make a splash. So you...

    The next 6 months will be epic for Tesla

    Car sales are virtually a zero sum game, and that's the problem for OEM trucks makers. Every single CT sale is to a customer who had the ability to purchase an OEM pickup, but for one reason or another decided to get a CT. That's it, that person isn't going to be in the market again for 5-6...

    Crash Test Video Measurements For Cybertruck Dimensions

    It's to determine velocity of a point or object they want to measure using two frames of video. If you know the vector and weight of a piece that goes flying off you can determine its energy. Thats kind of important in a crash test.

    Crash Test Video Measurements For Cybertruck Dimensions

    The bottom line is that the bumper bar is in between the lines that make 18ft-19ft square. 18ft (216") is way too short by all estimates. Based on the overhead picture when the truck nose touches the wall, it's physically impossible for it to be longer than the 19ft mark. So, as far as the...

    Crash Test Video Measurements For Cybertruck Dimensions

    You can test that theory of the squares not being 12" by finding out what the guesti-mate becomes using the alternate square sizes. The CT dimensions become either absurdly small or large for the alternate sizes. Even by using what you see one thing is for certain that is a dead giveaway and...

    Elon Musk: "Walked whole Cybertruck production line at Giga Texas for several hours earlier today – gonna be awesome!" - 4/2/23

    I've said it before... Even if Tesla gave 500-800 celebs/influencers/friends their CTs first that would only delay delivery to regular folks by 2 days max. I dont think celebs will eat up inventory because, unlike GM, Tesla intends to make more than 700 a year.

    Let it sit in the sun for a bit to warm up, then rub it with a soft cloth. That'll buff right out.
