The few I have seen and heard of have eventually been tied to a Tesla employee. One was saying how they weren't a Tesla employee, but it turned out their wife was. Until I see people here get VIN's and deliveries, I will be hesitant believing any delivery I see on social media.

This will be a great work truck for the majority of people who use their trucks for work. With the bed it may not be ideal for stacking a lot of 4'x8' sheets. However, it won't limit many people who actually buy a truck for work. The vast majority of pickup trucks are not used for work. They...

No one received it. That is the answer. I don't think there is one confirmation for a non-Tesla employee so far. As soon as people get VIN's here, they will be giving that information. As soon as they get delivery, they will be showing them off.

Most people are fine with EV's and being inconvenienced with the once a year road trip that the actually might need to drive very long distances. The vocal people here that are complaining about range shouldn't buy if that matters to them. I am just saying EV's struggle at very cold...

Facts based on people who work at Tesla?

EV's work fine for most people. However, if you live in cold climates and expect the Cybertruck to drive 250 miles or tow long distances, you will be upset. Most people use a truck to commute 50 miles or pick up stuff from Home Depot. If this is you, you will have no issues. My comments are...

Batteries struggle even at 45 Fahrenheit. Tesla won't warm the battery up much from that temperature, if at all. If you are in Canada, the battery is too small for you. In California it is perfectly fine.

You want facts based on what? Everything is speculation untill regular people get their hands on them.

The reason for a 200 kWh is to accommodate drivers that tow long distances, drive in colder climates, and states with poor charging infrastructure. If you live in a state with warm weather and don't tow, the 120ish kWh battery is perfect. EV's struggle in cold climates and I wouldn't buy one...

If you live in a cold climate and need to drive 500 miles for road trips, the Cybertruck and Rivian (even with max battery pack) will be a PITA. Just get a gas powered truck until technology gets better and the charging infrastructure is ready for your needs. Here in California the Cybertruck...

People like myself who ordered on December 8th and got December to March are hoping for March and are prepared for later. Everyone else who is waiting are prepared to get the sub $80K truck with $7500 tax credit in April. Only one group here is living in reality.

Did anyone see this YouTube short? They are charging with the windows down at 33 degrees Fahrenheit. When they take off, the heater will be on full blast. Her feet were cold. :p This is the person you are using as data for calculating range.

Gravity works both ways, but regenerative braking is not 100%. If you drive a very hilly route, it will definitely make an impact on range. Estimates are you will lose around 30% of the energy taking the potential energy back into stored energy in the battery. If you go up 1000 ft, that would be...

Ok, I agree that the Cybertruck's real range is probably like 150 miles under perfect conditions. Towing you will get about 25 miles with a full battery. This statement has nothing to do that I hope people above me in the pecking order cancel and I get my Cybertruck quicker.

Nothing will surprise me. I have been driving EV's from 2016 and I know exactly what to expect. One thing that wasn't discussed much here is something that you never took into consideration. I was one of the first Chevy Bolt owners and I obsessed over range. I had to get updates in software for...

We will know by mid January and you will see true estimates by people that know how to test range properly. Hopefully one of these people will be me. Still checking daily to see if my VIN pops up. It won't be 700-800 unless you are going 90 mph or doing 0 to 60 tests over and over.

Unfortunately that is how Tesla does their range and they won't change. Figure 70% during the winter and 80% during the summer if you are a highway driver that keeps up with traffic. Unlike other manufacturers of EV's, Tesla makes a profit on their cars. They know people want 300 mile range...

I think the people posting also aren't experienced with EV's. Once a few influencers get their hands on one, more information will come out. Just because they work at Tesla, it doesn't mean they know much about EV's.

Boomers don't buy a Cybertruck. So Doubt you would say that to my face. You are the one hiding behind the keyboard. Internet tough guy here. ?

If you want to use a one way trip, then you need to know a few factors which are very significant! What do you mean by "no significant elevation gain?" Any type of elevation gain is very significant. What about the wind and wind direction? I will tell you that even a 10 mph cross wind can be...
