While we debate whether Tesla's material change of the re-sale language between the Pre Order and Purchase agreement can holdup in the court of law, I also wonder if the "non-refundable" $1000 early order deposit is refundable if one doesn't agree with the Purchase Agreement's language.

With all the talk about 48V, Ethernet bus, giga castings, and new battery tech that can cut costs drastically, the price of the CT is about the same as a Rivian R1T if comparably equipped. With this said, Rivian is losing tens of thousands of dollars per truck though so maybe these costs...
If the selling price of the Plaid can go from $130K+ to $90K, it's not inconceivable that the Cyberbeast can go from $100K to $80K after the initial demand is filled. Tesla can also play w/ the selling price by moving various functions to subscription basis, i.e. basic auto pilot, rear wheel...
Ferrari and Porsche all have had rear wheel steering in their cars for many years (maybe 7 or 8?) even GM had 4WS trucks even before that, but the key is in the programming of the rear steering system. My '18 Ferrari GTC4 Lusso V12's tuning isn't as good as my Porsche GT3's as sometimes I can...
