Get bed liners and fan, and starlink (!) for your German Shepherds! Haha... Travel restraints for them to look out of it! What a hoot to discourage gawkers! Pix please! Congrats.
If your CT arrives, fails, and can't be warranty repaired, in a couple of reasonable attempts, invoke the State's "Lemon Law." Course you may need to pay a Lemon Law Lawyer too! You're entitled to a new CT, or refund the full price... minus legal fees!! But what a hassle over months...
April Fools? Any comments on these assumptions? 1. Finished production range is 1500 - 3000 / week in 2024. 2. Half the reservation holders will opt out. 3. Deliveries are >90 days from order. I then presume reservations at about 125,000 level (mine) will be reached in 7 to 10 months from April...
120,000 reservations to go till my number!! Will use that time to revamp my home electrical and charger station... Getting an electrician is almost as hard, haha.
If FSD isn't free by the time I get mine, I don't need it. Cybertruckin by FSD is a sad joke, on us. When I can't do my driving with enhanced autopilot, my kids will drive...
The CT is what gets me 'woke' each morning, other than giggling hysterically about Tesla's stock price! The wonder about the CT is its adventure in everything, (this thing could go to Mars!) and, hopefully, next gen batteries! Three to four years is fine by me. My concern is that Tesla will...
When I get my CT I'll be turning 76, so its attractiveness to me is driving like I'm 70ish! Ha ha. When I lose my coordination, my kids will drive and I'll play with the monitor!
"Always better to pay cash for things that appreciate and finance as cheap as possible things that depreciate like cars"
Believe it or not, the CT might not depreciate much due to software updates, fsd, durability, million mile battery tech, camper mode, solar, SS. and on. It's definitely...
Hey, at my age, If the CT is moderately reliable, my kids will inherit it. Also, it'll be fully depreciated against the family business taxes in the meantime! What a novel thought!
Saving works for both your wants and needs, equally. ALL of us put $ 100 down on the CT as a pure 'want', For a product that is at least 3 years away. Most will actually 'need' it in 3, 4 or 5 years to replace an older ICE vehicle. We are also saving for the future tech in it! Future...
Think carefully about 5 or 6 year car loans. 1. They have your title. 2. Payment on a $ 50 K loan is not a breeze. 3. However, saving for it makes it yours - immediately. I'm saving cash for mine cause it won't be built likely till 2022 or 2023...
