So then… bottom line on the 3 motor CT it should actually be able to be driven 500ish miles on the largest pack and charged to 100 then discharged to near zero and the pack should suffer little or no accelerated degradation?

My research over the years has found that Li Ion batteries charged to 80% maximum and discharged to no more than 20% have an ‘indefinite’ lifespan. I understand there are many other factors but that this is a fundamental of this battery chemistry. Will CT (or do any Teslas) allow programming for...

I have a CMAX with a Panoramic Moonroof here in San Angelo TX, it has a ‘curtain’ that closes to cover the glass from the inside on a button that does a good job at keeping the heat from entering the cab. Living in the Southern US a panoramic moonroof is really only usable in the fall winter and...

I believe I read a quote from Elon that CT will have a ‘hatch’ or other name of a way to transition from the cab to the vault and that the climate control would be available in the vault. Can anyone confirm this. If this is the case, this will be amazing and just what I need for some minimalist...

I’m an Independent Financial Advisor. The best scenario is to always pay cash for everything. This is not possible for most folks on home ownership, yet debt on a smallish, appreciating home is good debt. Debt on -any- vehicle that depreciates (will CT?: certainly it must) unless used in a...

RN113213578 = 469,478. San Angelo TX. I’m thinking I’m 2023/2024?

I suppose where I’m confused, this being a pickup and designed to payload over 3K lbs in the bed, how can the CT Single Motor RWD possibly be balanced loaded AND unloaded. This is a weight and balance problem of being loaded and unloaded on the bed, with or without towing. I can understand a...

I‘m not concerned about the second motor, I’m more concerned about the AWD. Which is not 4wd. 4WD trucks/suvs are fairly low maintenance, the more I read about these advanced AWD systems, they start costing bucks between 100k and 130K miles. It depends on how Tesla does it. The newest Ford AWD...

I have found over the years after owning many pickups in over 40 years... I’m wondering why CT 1 motor is RWD, as I have found FWD to be superior in most every way possible to RWD. I suppose it is for the 7,500 lb towing capacity, yet when your not towing, an empty RWD only 1/2 r 3/4 ton pickup...
