    Wishful thinking for a U.K. Tesla CT Factory

    Yes, there’s a need for 8 giga battery factories in the U.K. I believe & Tesla do have a license to be a electricity company. So it a no brainer to have at least one giga battery factory. UK designed vehicles would be good, I suggest. Also, the gravity park site is only 30 minutes from the...

    Sincerely hope so. I’m in Somerset & have been to gravity park where the rumour is that Tesla might located. It seems well suited to the company & is big enough. Plenty of skilled and capable labour about. Would be a win win ?

    I am holding firm on my CT reservation for the UK. Who else ?

    There are a huge number of small businesses and emergency services in the UK and EU who could make use of the full size cybertruck and smaller variants.

    If an M3 can do this!!?

    Archaic? Just the opposite. Our rules have evolved from similar to what you have. To tow a 12k lbs trailer (that's about 5.4 metric tonnes) legally you'd need a 16k or 7.5 metric tonne truck or larger I expect. 4x4s simply aren't big enough by our rules. This makes sense in the UK.

    If an M3 can do this!!?

    Yes in the UK trailers / towed machinery over 750kg has to be braked, but vehicles have to be capable. I did a lot of towing using 4x4s & light trucks & found manufacturers figures to be optimistic, especially older Landrover vehicles. Basically, it was always to keep the trailer & load to less...

    What made you decide to buy your Cybertruck?

    I'm a environmental professional so I Totally get the need for low carbon transport. Sick of ICE vehicles & machinery & see the perpetuation of our forced dependence on fossil fuels as a insult. On a lighter note, I love the tech, innovation, speed, durability, capability, & probably be the...

    Hey Elon! What About This!

    Hey Elon _ how about revolving seats for a conference mode. And a hot water thing ( 'kettle' maybe the technical term ) for the British version. ?
