This price will push more people towards AWD, and Tesla has a buffer to lower RWD prices in the future. If they had released RWD at $60K, they would see less sales for AWD and wouldnāt be able to lower RWD prices in the future. This is a genius move, but itās also Marketing/Pricing strategy 101.
Ugh! Hard pass! This feature alone is worth $10K upgrade to AWD/Beast!!
Those on the fence - just bite the bullet and get this magnificent machine. Itās worth every penny! Of course you might save $7K - $10K if you wait, but is the āopportunity costā of missing out on the experience worth it?
Checkout R1T or Ford Lightning for a comparison. It appears to be overpriced compared to AWD features, but itās well priced compared to other EV trucks! You get 350 miles for a dent resistant truck with 6ā bed and SBW AND it can fit in a garage. You donāt get all that in $69K price point.
Exactly, and after a year or so, they will lower the price accordingly on all models. Marketing genius! I think all these models are correctly priced for the current market!
Or āCybertruck couldnāt meet 0-60 acceleration specs in Boat modeā ?
In all seriousness, this is so dope! Iām so curious to see underwater footage of this adventure, if they have one!
Itās 3 months supercharging. I rarely used it but this weekend for the first time I had to use it to charge till 80%. I saw $40 charged on the credit card. My 3 months expired last Friday! Incredible timing! ?āāļø?
I consider the current design to be much better. The bed is nice and secure. You can still wash and hose it. There are drains in the bed storage. In the future, Tesla could easily add ādrainā feature to tilt the truck and drain any water through tailgate. If they had added drain holes, it would...
These are one of the best pictures I have seen of someone using the Truck as a Truck. Iāll definitely check out the mats. I already have a liner but the mats might help with cleaning as they can be easily removed. Thanks for sharing!
This is the exact reason I pulled the trigger as well. I purchased last Nov 2024. Iām so glad I did. Even before the Tariffs, Tesla said they are not making much profits from Cybertruck. If they lower the price, some features will be gone. They might remove ventilated seats or a few speakers or...
The alternative is far more fatal. If the bed doesnāt give away, the passengers will be pulled into the impact. At such high impact, forget about steering or breaking. You will have no control on anything. The primary objective will be to protect vital body parts to survive the impact. Whatās...
I was thinking the exact same thing. Cybertruck is ridiculously strong but also extremely well designed to self-sacrifice and protect the passengers. Such a magnificent machine! This crash is indeed a testament to it.
Whatās wrong with these people? Whipping out a gun in a non threatening scenario is a serious violation based on what I know. He could have caused a fatality if the CT owner did any pit maneuvers to protect himself, anticipating a gun shot!
Exactly! I think Tesla is trying to be as conservative as possible. I donāt know whether itās because of liability concerns or safety concerns. Either ways, Iām also looking for any official guidance from Tesla on recommended WD. I used to have Hensley hitch in my old trailer. I would love to...
Love it! God bless you. Hope the grandpa lives long enough to cherish the memory.
Only negative news hit the headlines. This is one of those beautiful stories that might not make it into any major media headlines, but itās one of the adorable stories to tell for generations at the dinner table!
