    What if I don't want the foundation series?

    I finally got the invite to configure a Foundation Series but with $20k added to a duel motor making it still over $100k out the door and no tax benefit, I'm passing for now.

    Cybertruck EPC parts catalog page is up! -- Part numbers # and schematics / diagrams of parts & components

    Looks similar to the 16v one in our 2023 MYLR but probably larger. We had to have the 12v one in our 2018 M3LR replaced under warranty and plan on doing that proactively for that car when the 3-4 year mark rolls around since it is lead acid and don't want to get stranded. Time will tell how...

    🍻 CyberBeer + CyberStein Limited Edition Set Giveaway! [Enter Here]

    We sold our 2003 Ram Quad cab back in 2016 after deciding driving it was just too expensive for gas. Bought our first Tesla in 2018 and our second one in 2022. Hoping for a 500-mile range Cybertruck to haul things with or we may just keep using the Model Y until one comes along.

    Is the 4 motor CyberTruck version the "plaid" version?

    I thought the tri-motor was history when the quad talk began. The only reason I reserved the tri-motor for the advertised range estimate of 500+ miles and never really cared about 0-60 times. If they offer a dual motor with that range for less money, it will be fine for everything I would need...

    Is $10 premium connectivity sustainable?

    Our Model 3 has FSD beta and my grandson, that is currently driving it, loves it but with the removal of radar and sonic sensors I just couldn't justify spending even the $6k for enhanced AP much less $15k on a feature that isn't as capable as what I used to drive. If they ever get the "vision...

    Is $10 premium connectivity sustainable?

    I like the satelite images while driving that also display traffic conditions in real time along with business names etc in the area I'm in. When waiting in my car while either charging or just waiting for my wife doing some shopping, I like watching Youtube, Netflix, or just browsing the web...

    Is $10 premium connectivity sustainable?

    We have premium connectivity for life included on our '18 Model 3 and I never hesitated adding it by an annual payment on our '23 Model Y. I'm not big into some of the features but I've grown to love several of them where paying $100 a year is worth it to me.

    Any chance early reservation holders get a ...

    When we picked up our '23 Model Y in Nov., we asked about it since we got one when getting our '18 Model 3. They said hold on and came out with another red Model 3 just like the one we had already. We took it anyway since having 2 can't hurt...;-)

    How long to 50k Trucks delivered? (Plotted out)

    Well it's either that or keep the voltage at 400vdc and install huge heavy batteries to meet the range estimates they have suggested that are north of 500 miles in a heavy truck platform. I'm no electrical engineer but Tesla probably has a few on staff to come up with a solution.

    Reservation Dropout Percentage

    I'm wondering about those of us that don't want to cancel but just may not be ready to confirm when contacted. I confirmed right away when contacted for my pre-reveal Model 3 order even though I had planned getting a $35k Model 3. The time it took them to get to production and my reservation...

    How long to 50k Trucks delivered? (Plotted out)

    You are right about the L2 charging since the inverter in the car will be changing the AC incoming into what ever the voltage is needed for the DC battery. As for the Supercharging, since Teslas are currently using a 400vdc battery and and are charged at that rate bypassing the inverter since...

    How long to 50k Trucks delivered? (Plotted out)

    I haven't cancelled my reservation but I did decide to add a Model Y to our garage which we picked up Nov. 4. By getting that, I'll likely be pushing off or cancelling any offers by Tesla to confirm my CT reservation. I could predict it was still going to be a year or more away so just...

    First gen cybertruck vs Second gen

    I did put in my reservation when I did a CT reservation early on but the wait to see if I'll even keep that reservation is taking so long that is why I included the tow package on the MY for the occasional dump rum or furniture move. Don't really need a truck as a daily driver but was going to...

    First gen cybertruck vs Second gen

    Since having paid for FSD on our 2018 Model 3, I decided to wait on it when purchasing our 2023 Model Y. I rarely used the additional features FSD added to regular AP. Over 4.5 years of ownership, summoned maybe 7 times, auto parked 2 times, auto interchanged 6-7 times, tried it on city...

    Shipping early 2023? Bring It!

    The race is on for which I'll get first. Will it be my Cybertruck or my Aptera? A Model Y with a tow hitch could be in the cards instead of either if the wait takes too long.

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

    If price is too high for a 500 mile range CT, I'll probably just buy the Model Y with a tow package and a small utility trailer for the rare times I actually need a truck. I won't be cancelling my reservation in either case as the price swings I've seen with Tesla going up and down are pretty...

    New Member, advice please, Model Y or wait?

    I'm on the CT reservation list also but will still be considering the MY LR since it will be much easier to park in my garage plus with a tow package and a small utility trailer, I'll probably be able to do fine without a truck. I'm waiting to order the MY LR since I already drive a Model 3 LR...
