I would not be surprised if, by the fall, they are rolling out 3000+ cybertrucks - per week.

Exactly. Thanks for being another voice of reason.

How do you know your place in line?

Good luck, but I wouldn't hold your breath.

Actually, boat designs have radically departed from that, unlike a strat or a woman body - that still is as desirable today as the day it was invented :P

I have a feeling the design of the CT will be as timless as a woman body or a fender stratocaster :)

Yeah, those samurais can be made into some serious wheelers - my brother-in-law had one that was awesome! I think it is going to be a LONG time before we see PIEV's doing this kind of work, because of the weight of the battery and the motors being so close to the wheels.

Not surprising that you would take what I said out of context when talking about jeeps, land rovers, et al. “Remember, when you are dead, you do not know you are dead. It is only painful for others. The same applies when you are stupid.” ― Ricky Gervais

Meh - we aren't really talking about ICE vs EV off-road merits. As, honestly, if you wanted to seriously wheel the answer is a jeep with solid locking axels and disconecting sway bars. The challenge that EV's will have offroad (serious wheeling anyway) is that they put an awful lot of weight...

There are a plethora of highly capable off-road vehicles that do it with 1 motor, a transfer case, locking diffs, or some even synchros and electronic clutches. Would it be cooler, yes, but it would add a lot of cost and complexity that simply isn't need for crawling over rocks, mud, sand...

The Cybertruck has 1500 HP, which it gets from two 600hp motors in the rear, and a 300 legacy motor in the front like is in so many other of their cars. I did not say that because it has 1500hp, it has to be 3 motors.

you're wasting your time with this one - he is incapable of logic and reason as it pertains to his precious image of 4-motors, which were never part of the design.

No, I am not implying that the cyber truck even has torque vectoring at all. But if it did, you really don't torque vector from the front, it's done from the rear in the plaid. And as mentioned, It's not needed in a truck, it's a performance thing on a road course. I dont really know why...

Not if its faster, more reliable, and costs less...

Braking is different from clutches controlling it, but you dont seem to understand that we are talking about off-road capability and not on-track performance. This thing needs to be reliable and efficient. I dont think you could be more wrong if you tried on a dare.

A voice of reason...

The more I read this, the less it makes sense.

I never said it had plaid motors. And Elon tweets a lot of stuff... including that Coca-Cola should have cocaine in it, and that people will live on mars in the next decade. Doesn't mean it's fact.

Nope.

I think the word is they are trying to keep the original pricing. In fact, they are cutting prices on other models even.
