Tank turn and crab walk do nothing for me. You can keep them for parlor tricks.

Rivian starts looking fairly cheap?

That’s surely a sales cost. Imagine Walmart adding something on your bill to cover ordering costs, shelf packers and check out till operators

I plan to pick up my Cybertruck at the factory in Austen if this is permitted. I have just finished reading an article written by Brian Cooley of the Driveshow on the iniquitous "New car destination charge" in the USA. According to this article, the auto industry charges a flat fee in excess of...

Factory pick up is definitely something I want to do. Slow road trip Austin to Virginia.

Austin to Virginia is my plan. Hope they allow factory pick-up.

On a similar vein I have an 18 yr old F150 with high end trim, low miles and if I flogged it I might get $6k. Its not worth selling as it is unmarked, no rust, lived in a garage & been properly serviced. I fortunately have lots of garage space so I should just keep it to fill in any gaps the CT3...

It seems like quite a few Superchargers do have facility to accommodate vehicles towing - but not all. The problem, as I see it, with having a short range is that you become very limited in your choice of supercharger locations and conceivably, if you have say only a 90 mile range, you may not...

Any idea why the Wh/Mile usage seems to not vary much according to the size of trailer being towed - based on the various YouTube videos? I would have expected a much higher Wh/Mile where you are towing a big heavy trailer and this doesn't appear to be the case.

My point is that based on the numerous YouTube videos of Teslas towing; these range from guys towing huge caravans on the one hand and guys towing those small scramblers on a light trailer (the 1300 Corolla quip) and what seems strange to me is that the watts per mile are not that different...

There is a guy on a YouTube video towing a very light trailer with 2 small scramblers (look like 125cc size) behind a model Y and getting awful watts/mile results. That trailer set up you could easily tow with a 1300cc Corolla! So it appears that size doesn't matter (as the actress said to the...

Tow your boat you certainly will be able to. You can pretty well pull out tree stumps with all the torque and power you got but ...... For how far before you need to recharge is the $1,000,000 question?

If I got a 250 mile towing range with my Cybertruck I would be a happy bunny. If I only got 120 to 140 mile range that would suck. Based on what I see on YouTube videos, towing with Model X, 3 & Y's makes me worry. I shall wait until the first Cybertrucks are delivered and I will keenly follow...

Crissa, I don't dispute that GasHog wastes energy all the time. It's a piece of shit hence called GasHog! It has the aerodynamics of a brick shit-house! So bad that towing something like a boat probably doesn't affect the already awful aerodynamics. The points that come out from this exercise is...

I thought this article stated that the SEMI TRUCK was 30 to 50mm wider than 2.5M. No one was talking about the CYBERTRUCK.

Australia is not the only place with a 2.5M maximum width. South Africa has the same 2.5M width restriction. I wonder what the EU regulations are?

But if you charge at home you start each day with a full "tank". Teslas with a range of at least 300 miles (real world maybe 220 miles) is more than any Mom shuttling kids to and fro could possibly use in a day.

If I need to tow a trailer with garden refuse to the tip or collect the new fridge I bought at Lowes, a Model X, 3 or Y are perfect because I am probably not going to do more than about 15 miles round trip and these vehicles are massively powerful so towing is a breeze. If I want to tow a...

People use their cars to tow jetski's, scramblers, small luggage trailers, sail boats and small motorboats. Unfortunately there is no EV that is any good for long haul towing. It seems like 80 miles is about all the range you get. The actual pulling power is no problem because EVs have the power...
