Finally got to see the CT, in person. There are 3 parked at Fort Myers, FL Tesla SC, which I assume are customer trucks, slated for delivery, and they have been there for a couple of weeks. There was an opening between them, so I parked my current Honda Ridgeline daily driver among them for size comparison. They are all AWD, and were very dirty. As others have said, it's much better, in person. After lurking this site, since reveal, and consuming all the CT news available, it was a little underwhelming to see these. I am still excited to get mine, when the time comes. I received an invitation for Founders, a couple of months ago, but waiting for the regular AWD, as I don't need all the extras, would like a lower price-point, and not fond of the white interior accents on the FS models.

Great pictures. Did you happen to see/get pictures of any of those Vins?
Thanks, It didn't occur to me to shoot the VINs, when I was shooting, and random people were pulling up and swarming them, to have a look, when I was there. I am out of town this week, but will try to snap the the VINs, if they are still there when I get back to Fort Myers.

Odd, with those leaves stuck above the hood I'd say those are not freshly parked but cannot be certain.

I wonder if they are waiting on some part fixes but you would think they would want that $300K asap....

I was hoping for an old Ridgeline.

If someone wrapped an old Ridgeline in a SS looking wrap, and called it CT it would be glorious

I was wondering the same, why are they just sitting there and I also observed the build-up of leaves, which indicated they had not moved for a long time. People are champing at the bit for these trucks and these three appear to just be collecting dust. I actually had a 2008 Ridgeline, which was one of the best vehicles I ever owned, drove it for 120k miles and traded it in for a 2014 Tesla Model S. The old Ridgelines had a very strange design, just like the Cybertruck. The in-bed trunk on both my 2008 and 2017 Ridgeline is one of my favorite features. The Cybertruck in-bed trunk isn't nearly as spacious.

I picked mine up from Ft. Myers today. Great experience, took less than ten minutes. It looked like there were 5 other trucks there waiting for delivery.
