Well, a two-by-four isn't 2" by 4"
285/65/R18 is not a 35" tire
He said all variants would have 18" wheels I believe.A 285/65/R20 is 34.6". If it was a 20" wheel, then the tire size would be closer to 35's.
Exterior dimensions (estimated) Dimensions (+/- 2 inch leeway):
- Wheelbase: 145”
- Length: 231”
- Width w/o mirrors: 84”
- Height: variable (air suspension)
That's correct - 18" wheels only. Revised list to reflect this.He said all variants would have 18" wheels I believe.
He also said that a 285/65/R18 is a 35" tire. It's not. It would be considered a 33" tire even though it's only 32.6".That's correct - 18" wheels only. Revised list to reflect this.
That would cost a lot more than just buying two Cybertrucks.You can always get a new wife . . .
It makes me wonder, What options are available? White interior? Different Wheels? Maybe the winches and other accessories at order time.People freaking out about his price speculation, he was saying the TOP model would be 90-110k. That's normal. Pickup trucks serve a VERY wide base of customers. They are both work beaters and America's luxury car. I know far more rich people that drive a blinged out truck than a Mercedes or Bimmer. It's somehow more socially acceptable. What Matty said was the top model will play with the Raptors, etc, which makes sense. It's a small part of the truck market but a fairly large market in real numbers, and it's high profit. He also said there would be the base or dual motor variant that will be more affordable. It will probably start in the $60-70k range for now. The average pickup price is $46k, so not bad to pay for a much better vehicle and no massive gas bills. Tesla probably won't bother with the entry level part of the market for some time as they build up capacity and sell higher-margin trucks for a bit. I can see down the road them revisiting the Single motor option, maybe with a few blingy features taken out to get the price down.
I'm here for multiple reasons. We have speculated for a long time (and it was fun for a bit), but after speculating for over 3 years now, it is just exhausting, and I know we are ALL ready to see the final specs on this beast, rather than what people THINK this will have.Then why are you here
Top spec was announced at 69k right? For Tri-motor? If we take the plaid model S adding another motor for 20k, that. would put. quad motor at 89k (not too far off) but we dont know if quad motor will exist at all.People freaking out about his price speculation, he was saying the TOP model would be 90-110k.
