While the current inflationary period does make it appear Tesla will be unable to sell CTs at the originally announced prices, I think if there is a price increase they will try to make it a minimal one.

I think it is currently extremely difficult to predict even remotely close to what will actually happen for several reasons. While I am hopeful Tesla will be able to produce 500k+ CTs per year, I think the ramp could be somewhat difficult. First, producing the stainless steel body at scale...

I agree a multi-hinge double opening tailgate could be useful, but the extra complexity and cost does NOT seem worth it especially since the tailgate also houses a 2-section ramp. Personally I think the tailgate will be too heavy for a hinge that would allow "door" opening. I would rather have...

I think many of us (myself included) are wondering what Tesla means by the use of those obscure terms. The following is pure speculation without any supporting evidence: I think their "Alpha" phase is figuring out procedures, parts, and equipment needed to make CTs at scale. And "Beta" would...

My current plan is to have the Cybertruck as a second vehicle. I really only need one vehicle, so I am undecided about keeping or selling my Model S. There is also the possibility that I might decide the wait for delivery is too long and that I really do not need the CT so might cancel my...

Great idea! (y) I have never seen any "services" at superchargers other than the rarely seen trash barrel. Thus I doubt there will ever be any windshield cleaning facility at supercharger locations other than the suggested possibility of someone offering the service for a few $$. And that...

Personally, I doubt there will be a plaid CT as the only "performance" metrics commonly associated with trucks is towing and load carrying capacities. And CT already has impressive numbers in those categories. Further the 0-60 time of the tri-motor variant is already very impressive for a truck.

While I think any update on the CT or the cyber ATV would be wonderful (and overdue), I doubt that will happen. I hope I am wrong (again). ;)

While I agree with the general assumption that until reservations are satisfied, Cybertrucks could become an appreciating asset. However I doubt the 250k/yr production figure in part because I have not seen that stated anywhere other than in this thread. Further if the supply chain issues...

At this point, I am not sure what to believe about production version CT rumor & speculation. Personally, I think: Solar will be an option but not offered for at least a year. Only a few deliveries this year and those will be to Tesla employees. I think some of us will be waiting at least...

While I think a cyberSUV could be a popular add to the Tesla lineup in the future, I believe in the near term it is much more important for Tesla to satisfy the long list of Cybertruck reservations first. Personally my model S satisfies almost all my current hauling needs, so my CT reservation...

The idea of a crash/fire resistant box for the data recorder has merit. If one bothers to read the actual info released about the car instead of the BS put forth by idiots, they would learn that the vehicle did NOT have FSD (owner did NOT purchase the option) and only basic driver assist...

I hope you do. There are probably many here that will be very interested to see images of an actual production CT in the hands of a reservation holder. (y)

Pure speculation, but I expect that to happen eventually - after the factory is fully operational.

The thing to be aware of is the Cyberlandr team is currently raising money via pre-orders to fund the development of their manufacturing plant. All they really have at this point is an idea, concept video, and a proof of general concept very rough prototype. While I think the concept is...

I agree with @Cyberman and I think his post was overdue. Waiting for something we really want is hard, and the longer we wait, the more frustrated we can get. While I think I am more patient than some (at least I believe so), the looooonnng wait to finalize our orders, or receive any official...

Personally, I think almost all new or refreshed Tesla vehicles are delayed due to battery cell constraints. Only when the battery cell manufacturing facilities at Gigas Texas & Shanghai are ramped up, along with Panasonic at Giga Nevada figuring out how to make 4680s at scale, will we start to...

Elon has suggested an update on CT will be released this quarter. When do you think that will happen? Knowing "Elon time", my guess is late June 2021 or later.

BS speculation and rumors always get wildly blown out of proportion and are frequently false. Only when Tesla releases full specs of the production CT versions will we have real facts to discuss. Until then we only have speculation and BS.

Hey, a brushed steel look might be good. ;) Actually as Elon has hinted that the production version could be up to 3% smaller than the prototype, it should fit car washes and most garages.
