Sure, but that's what you're there to teach them...........

And if I put the player in the frunk won't it be an 8-Frack player.........

And where is that 8-Track player now? More importantly, where is the Landcruiser?

Right, my F350 sucks off-road. It is a dually so there's that, of course, but the single axle F350/F250s I've driven ain't much better. I love my F350 and it's great for towing but not so versatile, and it ain't even close to efficient.

I'm still trying to decide the best spot to mount my 8-Track tape player in my Model 3. Any advice?

Kids all seem to know about Teslas..........

I work at a small critical access hospital in rural eastern Montana, in Miles City. No Teslas other than my Model 3 in Miles City, that I know of. In fact, we have, by estimates, only 20-30 Teslas in Billings, the biggest city in the state. In any case, without me saying a word, and within a few...

It's just a truck and like any vehicle, not an investment.

I don't get it, most trucks that have ever existed have been parked outside. Garages, except for the extremely wealthy, are a relatively new thing as general use and in much of the US are not actually used for vehicles. Meaning vehicles parked inside is a new construct. My F350 has never seen...

The ideal/traditional/standard size for a truck bed is an unobstructed 4'x8' space, front to back and between the wheel wells, the size of a sheet of plywood. Modern 6.5' short bed trucks cheat by claiming an 8' bed when the tailgate is down. Tesla just upped the ante by adding a stop to the...

I think it's important they open up the Mars market as well..........that market could be out of this world.........

Right, an 8' bed would be good. Hopefully in future Tesla will offer options such as a full-length bed, a dually, blah blah blah..........

Right, the truck market is composed of folks as diverse as the car market itself. Rednecks/hillbillies like trucks, true enough, so do a gazillion other types who value purpose. The Cybertruck will probably be a big seller with most types..........rednecks will likely initially resist...

Right, there is no F150 dually. The F150 is a light-duty 1/2 ton truck. The Cybertruck, in my opinion, will be somewhere between the F150 and the F250, with a bit of offroad capacity thrown in, something the Ford trucks are not very good at.

The other issue is the limitation of the 14,000 lb rated tow capacity. Probably hard to justify a dually with that inherent limitation.

Again, the hardware difference between a dually or not is very little. No significant design mods needed. Duallies are for stability when towing large loads. So you don't jackknife towing 20k lbs on the highway at speed. Duallies are useless offroad and the back end skates around when not...

There is clearly a demand for duallies. Smaller market no doubt, but demand nevertheless. The difference in producing, for example, an F350 and an F350 dually is minimal, rear-axle and fender. Predicting what Tesla will do is speculation. What in truth happens, however, will not be because the...

Right, good point. We discussed that one on TMC. A bit close to the rear bumper in a turn perhaps but such a design could work in general. I suppose then that the more succinct complaint would be it may not work with many existing gooseneck/5th wheel trailers. Different issue, right?

Sure, why not? Don't see why Tesla couldn't design that.........

The problem is there is no real point in the dually unless you can pull a gooseneck trailer, or a 5th wheel if you like. That seems questionable with clearance, because of the sails. Or perhaps there is enough clearance, you would need to make the measurements. My gooseneck clears the side of...
