They are doing that in Virginia also.

Yes. Trade in your Model Y.

Yeah, seriously. WTH do we need that horrible and loud music for? Will it improve our excitement of seeing the CT on the road? Bah. Silence would have been much better.

My favorite part is the shot of the BAW. Of all the CT features, that is the most impressive. ?

It is hard to produce the 3/Y at a profit, yet they figured out how to do it. That said, I am in the "people will be disappointed" camp. If they can produce a 3 motor, 200 kWh battery vehicle for less than $80k, I will be shocked. If they release a two motor, 100 kWh model, it is possible to...

Long range BEVs and destination chargers are the answer. Of course DCFC stations are important, but not like gas stations are. Your car sits for hours at a time when you are at your destination. Hours and hours. If you can charge while you are there, and you can make it to your next...

Are you saying the CT won't plow through the water like a speedboat? My world is shattered.

Actually, from a hardware perspective, it compares most closely with the $108k model. Software is "free" from a marginal perspective, so Tesla can heavily discount or include FSD for no incremental cost. The three motor CT with a much bigger battery will cost less than this? I think it will...

I hope you are correct.

Your response is well written and compelling. I am not convinced that Tesla is as efficient as you are, but you could be 100% correct. If the price of the CT is closer to the Y than the X, it will be clear. I definitely agree that Tesla is more efficient. But is it enough to make the CT...

Sorry, not trying to rewrite history. I should have left that part out of my post since it was off the top of my head and I didn't research it. I just remember a $30k target and I don't recall they ever hit it. If they promised $35k, then certainly they did that. BTW - I am definitely not a...

Maybe. It took Tesla years to even approach the promised $30k M3 price. And still they are not there. Lofty goals meet reality.

You have to assume radical breakthroughs in production efficiency and design to get $30k less than the almost equivalent Rivian: I agree there are reasonable arguments for why Telsa can do it. But I think no matter what they do, the batteries cost what they cost, and the motors cost what they...

Will you move forward if the price is where I think it will be? I think a dual motor with the initial release configuration will be $80-90k. I bet they produce those for six months or so before introducing new models and different price levels. I bet they promise a $60k version to be produced in...

I think the idea of taking the CT into the water like a boat is ridiculous and amazing. It makes me laugh thinking about it. Can you imagine if they actually built it to do something like that? ? I hope I am wrong about CT pricing. I hope they release the top spec model at less than $80k, and...

I vote for none of the above. I think they actually thought they could build it for less than the X. And maybe they can, but reality is a bitch. Now they are getting ready to start production, and they have paid for all the parts and materials needed to build them. So now they know how much it...

If they can sell the CT for that much less than the X, I will be very surprised. I hope they can, but it is hard to imagine the CT costing less to make than the X.

How much do you think the CT will cost? I bet it will be $60-80k, especially if they deliver the performance and features people are hoping for.

Dude. I was talking about car regulations and the freedom to choose what we buy and what we do. I was not talking about voting rights. You have taken one short comment about wanting smaller government and more freedom and distorted it to suggest I want less freedoms and more people oppressed...

Item 1. I have crashed before - no broken leg but a broken bike. I didn't wait for help. If I couldn't move, I would call my wife. The improvements in society, and there have been many, have not occurred because government has raised taxes, regulated more and mandated more. If you think...
