My Jeep's actuator just "clicks" (upon startup and even when I open any door) and then starts working (blowing cold AC or heat)...
The replacement part is in the glovebox, but I'm too lazy to install it...
I have one (now) on my Jeep JK Wrangler -- and drove with a front bike rack on it...it wasn't like my Jeep would be any worse off aerodynamically for that short distance...
Comparing the $50K CT dual-motor MSRP vs current ICE full-size (and some loaded mid-size) trucks = I will continue waiting until my reservation is filled...
Ford's loan advance wasn't part of the TARP bailout -- and they have about $1.5B left of debt to service (after starting around $6.9B way back in 2009)
Agree with the above posters -- CyberTruck + Semi should be the main focus of the Austin facility, especially since you can get a dual motor CT for less than the current Model Y SUV
Didn't Tesla announce something (Q2/2020 earnings call) about Tesla Insurance? I'd drop my Allstate coverage if the Tesla Insurance premium is close to what I give to Allstate now...
Ford isn't going anywhere -- the one domestic car company that will survive. It's the only other car brand I would consider (picking from F-150, Ranger, Bronco, Bronco Sport, and Raptor) that can "hang" with Tesla. And, Ford owns the U.S. fleet sales...
FCA (or whatever they're called now)...
Jeep JK Wrangler owner here -- like the idea of the full spare being mounted on some type of heavy-duty, swing-out, rear-bumper-mounting design (like the Jeep picture above...)
