  1. Why are 15,000 mile CT’s selling for MSRP on Carvana?

    Offering the Foundation Series for that long ended up being a huge misstep. It did a number on public perception.

    OEM Lightbar available for purchase from Tesla?

    While I don’t disagree entirely with the general sentiment, you had me laughing so hard at “LaserPecker” I could barely process the rest. I need to grow up. Quite the opposite of your little flaccid frunk problem from the other thread.

    OEM Lightbar available for purchase from Tesla?

    When you’re wrong, you’re wrong. There was this one time where I thought I was wrong, turns out I was mistaken. 🙃 But, what this final kick in the balls means to put a fine point on it is that there is absolutely nothing, whatsoever, special about the Foundation Series CTs. Nothing! 😡 The...

    Got in a crash, giga cast fractured (video)

    I don’t want a used cyber, only mine is acceptable used because I know where it’s been and how. pretending they total loss it, they pay off the remainder of my balance ie 59k and the remainder of the acv (maybe 75k) after loan payout is given to me. If that’s the case I’ll use that as a down...

    Why does everyone want the Foundation Series?

    I'd like to echo and amplify this response. I bought my FSAWD two years ago, when it was unclear how long the wait would be to get a non-FS. I decided the $20k premium was worth it because I wanted purchased FSD, PowerShare, Premium Connectivity, etc; and the shorter the wait for delivery...

    How-to DIY: Replace the Cybertruck HEPA Air Filter

    Ran the question through Gemini, here was its response for what its worth. --- The Cybertruck Owner’s Manual and technical documentation indicate that while the filtration hardware differs between the trim levels, the core HVAC architecture remains largely shared. Here is the breakdown of how...
  7. I received a trade in quote from Tesla on my early build Foundation series

    If I were you I would wait until tesla is desperate to sell more trucks. I had a fs awd and waited for the free sc on the beast and got it. The trade in value is right for the 33k I had 28k and got 75400. So it was well worth the wait to get the beast and free sc for life with premium service...

    Any important advantages of 2026 CT vs. Foundation Series (should I update)?

    PCS is a real concern with the Foundation, if it breaks sub 50k miles Tesla will absorb the cost of repairs, but you may be without your truck at a moments notice for 5 weeks (more in some areas) If you have lifetime supercharging would keep the Foundation, otherwise might be worth grabbing the...

    Waited forever! Finally Cybertruck Owner:

    Now you're just repeating yourself. I did the calculations when Foundation Series became a thing and valued the added goodies at around $12K, if I recall. You can value them however you want. As a side note, I mounted the L-track Bottle Opener when I got my Foundation Series AWD but have...

    Waited forever! Finally Cybertruck Owner:

    Yup, Cybertruck is a better value than a F-150, if it fits the budget. If not, and a truck is necessary, a buyer might be limited by what they can afford. However, if buying a truck on credit (which I would avoid like the plague), I would argue it would be better to swing a $10K higher payment...

    Waited forever! Finally Cybertruck Owner:

    Do you really believe the Foundation perks (minus the early delivery) were worth $20K to typical truck buyers? No, they were not, people paid the premium to get their hands on one early. And the difference becomes even more stark when one looks at the much higher volume Dual Motor version.

    Waited forever! Finally Cybertruck Owner:

    Here is what Grok says… pricing not bad based on today’s price. The Foundation Series Cyberbeast adds a $20,000 premium over the standard Cyberbeast's base price, including exclusive features, software, and accessories with an estimated total retail value of around $19,810 (often touted as...
  13. HaulingAss

    Waited forever! Finally Cybertruck Owner:

    The value has certainly increased since the Foundation Series that I bought. I knew I was paying an extra premium, above and beyond the actual value of the Foundation perks, for the right to take early delivery of the best pickup ever. If you think the Foundation "goodies" were worth $20,000...

    Waited forever! Finally Cybertruck Owner:

    Your “waited for ever“ is misleading. You were just too cheap to buy it two years ago….😂. Happy to see that you finally woke up. You missed nearly two years of enjoying the Cybertruck. You’ll love it like we all do.😊

    Congratulations & welcome to the family…do you still have the lifetime unlimited FSD & Unlimited internet?

    Waited forever! Finally Cybertruck Owner:

    Congrats!!🎉 That’s about right in the $70k’s Price varies, and jumps up and down a lot. See below for one truck. The three year old truck need to be in the $60k’s now with prizes stabilized!
  17. Waited forever! Finally Cybertruck Owner:

    Oh man! I wanted the Cybertruck on day one of unveil! Put my $100 in and waited. When it finally was ready everything changed from pricing to the range. Not a happy camper. Waited about a year after and got my $100 refunded. After 8 months of searching. I finally drove home my 2024 Cybertruck...
  18. Foundation purchasers that did NOT get lifetime free supercharging and connectivity

    True. $50k in Nov of 2019 has the same buying power as $61,300 5 years later. It's also easy to see why those who put down a $100 deposit when they saw the planned price of $39,990, $49,990, and $69,990 could not follow through when they found out the actual price 5 years later. Which is at...

    Foundation purchasers that did NOT get lifetime free supercharging and connectivity

    True that beast owners got installation credits and some got vouchers, but that isn’t the same as what I was responding to. What I don’t think is true is: “Powershare = free lifetime supercharging.” It isn’t worth arguing over; we aren’t going to get it.

    Foundation purchasers that did NOT get lifetime free supercharging and connectivity

    Dispelling a common misconception, the price was NOT $50K higher. It's both political parties printed dollars at a ridiculous rate to fund the mounting Federal deficits and interest on the mushrooming debt which meant that in just five years each dollar was worth considerably less than when the...
