    Tesla will change Foundation Series order to Non-FS without penalty (YMMV)

    Neither the IRS nor Tesla websites list the CT (even the sub $80k variant) as eligible for the tax credit (or point of sale).

    Cybertruck Formal List of Concerns

    1. Real world highway range is too low (AWD) 2. No timeline for when all season road tires will be available (and improve range as opposed to the all terrain tires it has now) 3. No timeline for when AUTOPILOT/AUTOSTEER/FSD will be available 4. No timeline for when normally priced AWD will be...

    Tesla lowers range estimate on Model S, X and Y (due to new EPA calculations)

    Do you have a similar table for the Model X? Or can post a link? Thanks.

    Tesla lowers range estimate on Model S, X and Y (due to new EPA calculations)

    This whole EPA range estimate marketing ploy needs to go away. Give us estimated "X miles highway, X miles city" estimates instead. Example: "Model Y Dual Motor LR: 220 miles highway†, 310 miles city*" (†70 MPH, *40 MPH)" I made up the exact numbers but you get the idea.

    Tesla is again confronted with risks for its Gigafactory in Grünheide

    I've never seen before a place more undeserving of a Tesla factory than Grunheide. Sure, big oil/big automakers in Germany are to blame, but the levels of bureaucracy delays is astounding. I'm sure there are other, more deserving European neighbors that would accept Tesla's factory with open arms.

    Camper Trailer Revolution?

    OK. I thought the goal of a weight distribution hitch was to shift the tongue weight from the truck's rear axle to the front axle, but I don't know for sure. When the Cybertruck is rolling out, I'm sure they'll have a good idea what's the best setup for it to tow RVs.

    Camper Trailer Revolution?

    I wonder what tyoe of tow hitch you need to tow (a standard travel trailer RV) with the Cybertruck. With adaptive air suspension, I'm guessing there's no need for a weight distribution hitch, but I don't have too much experience with truck towing trailers. Right now we have a Class-C motorhome...

    5.5 Foot vs 6.5 Foot Bed

    This is the kind of feedback I need to hear, as I've never owned a truck before.

    5.5 Foot vs 6.5 Foot Bed

    I voted for 5.5 ft, but I might change my mind when it comes to see the CT in person (go big or go home kind'a feeling).

    Recovered Cybertruck Hater

    Tank Utility Vehicle, I like that. I will nickname mine the Cybertank!

    Cybertruck will make public debut at Petersen Auto Museum in LA beginning From June 20-27!

    We should start a petition to get Sandy Munro in there for a little 1 on 1.

    How hot does a glass roof get?

    Honestly, in the hot AZ sun (it was 107 deg F today), I'd do what I currently do with my SUV: put sunshade covers on the windshield + driver & passenger side windows, when I park at work. Potentially also add a "sunshade" to cover the moon-roof glass top. I've never owned any Teslas before. An...

    Predictions for the top 3 Cybertruck exterior modifications

    Elon would threaten to sue them if they don't approve mirrorless option. Which means, no lawsuit and Elon would get what he wants.

    Cybertruck reservations may exceed one million after Jay Leno’s TV episode

    I think the automatic suspension is supposed to remedy that, e.g. the CT will automatically lower itself to minimum height as you approach your home.

    Upgraded order from dual to tri motor!

    I upgraded mine yesterday to dual motor. I have a class C RV now, when I get the CT, I'll sell my motorhome and buy a travel trailer. What kind of travel trailers people here plan to tow with their CT?

    Cybertruck reservations may exceed one million after Jay Leno’s TV episode

    The biggest thing I got from the official NBC video is how they titled it on you tube: "Jay Leno in the 2021 Cybertruck..." Interesting choice.

    Update: Cybertruck Will Keep Concept's Size, But Separate Smaller Cybertruck Likely!

    Thanks for the tip. I opened your link, and it said that "there's a newer product," and I saw the "Wall Connector - Gen 3." I'm guessing we might have Gen 4 (or 5) by the time the CT releases, so I will buy it just before I get my CT and have an electrician install it.

    Upgraded order from dual to tri motor!

    I'm thinking about doing the same thing. What ultimately drove you (no pun intended) to upgrade to the tri-motor?

    Update: Cybertruck Will Keep Concept's Size, But Separate Smaller Cybertruck Likely!

    I don't have a truck or a tesla. I ordered the Cybertruck and super excited about it. I measured my garage yesterday and was happy to find out it's 24x24' (my wife's car is a CR-V). I have a question about adding a Tesla charger to the home: can any existing Tesla owners shed some light about...
