    Musk: "Cybertruck pricing and specs will be different, but it will be a damn fine product."

    BS... Musk and plenty of others at Tesla know and he just said as much. You and the rest of this Clown Show of Deniers just can't accept it. The price is going up. Count on it. And while I am positive Tesla didn't / doesn't / will not want it that way, there is this thing called reality that...

    Musk: "Cybertruck pricing and specs will be different, but it will be a damn fine product."

    Please re-read what you wrote. Then watch this clip. Specifically at 5:45 or so... " Nobody is denying prices are going up. ... Nobody knows if prices are going up. " " We aren't saying they are wrong, we are saying they don't know that, stop stating your opinion as fact. It gets worse as...

    Musk: "Cybertruck pricing and specs will be different, but it will be a damn fine product."

    My Lord... I ride up to Sturgis and back for a break and come back to 37 pages of well... the same crazytown I left when I left... Only on this echo chamber can we actually see Elon say (by not saying) they are increasing prices due to ... you know... reality (the one most of the deniers don't...

    Tesla AC -> cool?

    Very familiar with The People's Republik, having been an indentured servant there for the last 10ish years of my life before retirement and before fleeing to the Great(er) State... Bless you for living there. I know well the weather there and I know it gets uncomfy at times. It's not the true...

    Tesla AC -> cool?

    No, they are not. They do their best, and you will be comfortable, but you will not be ice cold. Especially if you are heading east on a hot morning or west on a hot afternoon. All the more so if it comes at the cost of keeping the battery in peak working order. All the glass in the cars, in...

    Elon Says Final Cybertruck Design is Now Locked! Updated Production Timeline = Mid-2023

    Truly... and they will DEFINITELY spread them around a bit (if they do as they have done in the past with launches; the Y for example). But it all comes down to logistics and what makes the most sense/is easiest/makes Tesla the most dough. They need to start recouping the "billions they are...

    Looking to purchase reservations!

    I believe using past as precursor with Tesla is dangerous. It's been pretty much different every launch. The last launch (Y), which one might even say could be the most like that of the CT given the refinement of procedures, factory implementation/production, etc. had no real line, no order of...

    How to use 15k

    Approaching 10 to 1 in favor of NOT keeping your debt lower when you decide to buy something you apparently don't have all the money for in the first place... The lenders are winning. And yes, you COULD make more money in the long run by finding another vehicle to put your dough in. But you...

    Tesla excluded from Texas automotive incentives [CLOSED DUE TO POLITICS]

    Hold up a sec, you live in The People's Republic of Virginia and are saying crap like this??? Please, stay there, continue to pay your exorbitant taxes and be under represented, and don't come here... I have never lived in a bigger asshole State than yours and never will again. Please stay there...

    New Member, advice please, Model Y or wait?

    Life is short, you have things to do. Get a Y and don't look back. You'll probably be able to get one quicker than you think... And no one really knows when the CT will show up, let alone where you are in the "line" that doesn't really exist... Our Y has been bullet proof, easy, and more than...

    Does wall charger need to be plugged back in after use?

    By not keeping the car linked to the wall connector, you are missing out on quite a bit... but it isn't absolutely necessary. You will want the wall connector in an area that can receive wifi, if at all possible, as that will enable some good linkage with the mothership you will want. You...

    “ Cult of Elon” tag Cybertruck owners

    Disclaimer: I have been a member here longer than many of you AND I would definitely have loved my CT by now... Hit Piece? C'mon brrraaahhhhh... Some of the reactions here do make it sound a bit culty at times. What if they, for whatever crazy reason DON'T actually begin to produce the truck...

    Two Recent Tesla Patents (Feb/March 2022)

    I'm not referring to the patented hubs. I'm talking about the compressor system and the hoses, linkage, etc. Try finding a air locking differential that isn't a pavement princess more than a year or two old that works/doesn't require constant maintenance... This will be a similar concept and...

    Elon Musk replies to a Tweet about Pricing on the Cybertruck

    Two Recent Tesla Patents (Feb/March 2022)

    Unless they have come up with something truly revolutionary, an air system hard tied to a chassis for off-road (or even rough road) work is no bueno. Leak city over time. I really hope they have/can, but no one else really has to this point in spite of a lot of work by folks throughout the...
