Only $65 for a $.25 piece of ... plastic that takes 30 seconds to install? Another example of Tesla's amazing engineering and stellar customer service.
I believe the owners manual includes a warning that says "this POS mudguard should NOT be used in mud or rain or winds in excess of 10 mph".
I have a 2018 Model X that sold new in 2018 with FSD for $160 ish. New ones are about half that amount and I bought mine used for $40K. It has FSD and is a 6 seat model which were both expensive upgrades when new. Based upon the current Cybertruck demand (or lack thereof) I can see something...
2019 Res holder, no taker here. I took a 45 min. test drive today in a dual motor CT. The Steer by wire is awesome as is most of the driving experience with the notable exceptions of rear vision and cresting a steep hill and having no idea what's in front of you. I'm still not fond of the look...
I rented a Chevy Silverado Electric WT (work truck) from Hertz this past weekend. It easily accommodated 4 adults and a toddler in his carseat. The interior is spartan in a cybertruck sort of way but is very comfortable with a huge interior, nice sized frunk and gets over 400 miles per charge...
I like "Dirty Tesla's take on the Cybertruck. It's a truck and it will get dirty, scratched, dinged and marred just like all trucks that are used as trucks. For those who bought it as a show pony well, good luck with that.
Absolutely get the repairs done ASAP. Hopefully your repair process won't be as convoluted as mine. Apparently, the Collision Center was sent a wrong part from Tesla and that added 2+ weeks to what was a 3 month repair process. With many Tesla's here in CA and so few repair facilities, I suppose...
I'm also in CA with Tesla Insurance on a Leased 2021 Model Y and was rear ended by another Tesla (M3). She had AAA insurance. It took 9 months to fully resolve with AAA and I had to do the negotiating for my deductible and excess rental car coverage (3 months to repair). A Tesla collision center...
I'm glad you feel that way and with the Cybertruck, beauty is definitely in the eye of the beholder. Being in Ca, I see them frequently and must admit, the look is not growing on me. There has been one parked across the street from where we are staying on Cannery Row and the owner refuses to use...
Is it possible that your 2020 COVID and supply chain strained X has more inherent deficiencies? Tesla's in general are so well engineered and built that the QA and service processes are not well developed. Most of the Tesla issues are cosmetic and the Cybertruck certainly fits that description...
I'm pretty sure "a lot of people" would be more accurately described as a few people. The big 3 pickup manufacturers know the statistics so this speculation will be resolved soon.
BTW, having owned 3 Chey Volts, I'm interested in the new hybrid models from BYD and RAM. Fords next gen pickup...
I'm pretty sure the traditional pickup truck driver is not the current buyer of a Cybertruck. It was the simplicity of design, utility and price that drew me to Tesla and the Cybertruck. The promised low purchase price and long range were very important considerations. That announced 2019 price...
You are correct that I am no longer paying attention to the Cybertruck. Just thought I'd give a slightly different perspective as a reformed early reservation holder who tired of the 4 year wait and the surprising cash grab by Tesla for what was promised to be a very unique and affordable...
"BS analysis"? It is inevitable that these FS Cybertrucks will indeed sell for 50% or less than the purchase price in a few years. In March, I bought a 2018 Model X 100D from Tesla (1 yr or 10K miles warranty) for $41K. It had 49K miles on the ODO, all possible options plus FSD. That vehicle...
I'm in CA and paying Tesla Ins $138/mo for my Model X. I don't drive like a grandma but my safety score is still 90 so not sure what some of you are talking about. I had a Tesla Ins claim for a Model Y that was rear ended with $14K in damages and that was handled reasonably well by Tesla Ins and...
Yes, that is a setting that I forgot about. I'm in and out of the garage when loading/unloading the X so to avoid multiple opening and closing of the driver door it's best to just leave the FOB in the car.
It does not on my old 2018 Model X. Just the basics (lock/unlock, open frunk/hatch, charge port) are available. No Front or Falcon Wing door opening/closing via the Tesla App. The FOB is necessary for passenger/driver door management. That said, I've gotten used to carrying it and it is very...
