Wrapping is all about looks, the whole anti fingerprints and other particles sticking can be handled with metal treatment coatings if you really care. But there's already vids of buffing it to look brand new after a lot of driving.
I think a dirty CT looks better stock stainless. So if you're...
You mean they're not stopping production entirely because of the pedal grip? ???
This is actually interesting, because if they really are halting shipments, we can maybe guage how many they're actually creating per day now.
CT is definitely polarizing enough that you essentially have social unrest due to it being associated with EM, and also because Electrification has become politically charged. The CT is sadly muddled in all kinds of drama.
The other aspect of the CT is that it's basically got the unrefined...
Almost every layoff I've ever been involved with was slightly aggressive... With the idea that it will reveal the holes afterwards, and they'll hire them back. This is opposed to not being aggressive enough and still having positions that aren't impacting dividends as much. We don't exactly...
Not surprising, most should be relieved the build up is probably only related to the Pedal and/or the Layoffs. These are lesser issues to production than something more complex being the problem.
Meanwhile the CT haters rejoicing as they exclaim what a failure Tesla is and that anyone who buys...
Goodyear Wrangler Territory RT Tires... Designed for blended driving. Makes sense since we know a lot of CT drivers probably don't off-road that much.
It's basically a balance between road noise and pure off-road performance. The all season tires that will come on the base model will...
You have no way of telling that the layoffs change anything for the CT. They're already bottlenecked based on many other things. But also... Why would they stop the FS if they are making them slower? Has absolutely no correlation, and could actually mean the foundation series is produced for...
Yes I think carwow might have been it. I assume it's actually just brakes struggling to stop these super heavy vehicles. But tires likely would help too.
During the delivery event months ago, one of the media partners did a brake test during their drag racing shenanigans. It immediately revealed the brakes were stressed trying to slow down the cyberbeast from Max speed.
Outside the CB having acceleration far beyond what feels safe to some...
CTs are rare enough for car shows for now, but once they're everywhere will be ubiquitous. you'd care about some special mod more in the future. But for now it's probably cool enough on it's own.
It's funny, but I'm pretty sure car show types are embarrassed a bit when CTs show up. Some how...
Cyber Fatigue, everything is known... Only Prod Ramp issues and OTA updates will create any real drama. Tesla obviously pumping them out as fast as they can.
People have already pushed the CT to the limit of what it can mostly do off-road and towing... And while haters use that against the CT...
I already saw some posts complaining that their home doesn't qualify for Powerwall at all, and the power share equipment got swapped to a few months of free super charging. Then like you said... If it's a CB they also got a voucher to replace the power share install discount.
I know some of...
In theory the volume of CTs they plan to make should indicate a lower price is possible in the future. However the large battery is noteable. Once we get into 2025 the first step down to increase demand is to actually start selling base trim for 80k. After this the next step is to start...
CA is historically Teslas birthplace. Most of the earliest RNs are people who were already Tesla fans prior to 2019 and were watching the night of. So the first 24 hours were highly biased to CA.
Then you have the fact that other states are just far less population. So Tesla likely doesn't...
It seems pretty straightforward... Just allows people to order ASAP and potentially get bumped ahead of deliveries already in progress. Either way if you haven't ordered yet, you get to order now.
Given people from Dec are still waiting on VINs, I assume this is also the only way to speed...
4680 curve is a sore spot... And generally speaking EV battery tech has been mostly focused on sideways steps in alternative manufacturing, but with some sacrifices in all around performance areas. The first red flag about 4680s should have been the fact that Tesla wasn't openly bragging about...
