NE Ohio region Tesla shows 19 CyberBeasts and AW CTs available with FSC. Also there are two AW unit with 50 miles on them priced under $75,000 and one priced at $79,000. If we would have waited we could have saved $20,000 which is probably more than lifetime SC. Forget the 24o and 120 lines. Forget the dividers and clips and sunscreen. All the extras were overprice. I have cordless tools. I don't own a welder. I ordered my CT because I was told it would be a 4 year wait. Because of my age I took the deal. OW I would have not taken the Foundation series if I wouldn't have been led to believe there was such a demand.
Agree 100%. We were misled about the demand and wait times. The foundation series needs to have free supercharging to feel worth it.
Tesla needs to just part out the remaining foundation series trucks or buff off the laser etching of any left after today.

Let’s see if Tesla extends that offer since the Foundation series are flying out of the lots so fast.
Tesla didn't extend the Free Supercharging offer. But they apparently still feel that incentives are needed to move the Foundation Series, because they've switched to a Free Wrap offer, good through March 31.

That is a heck of an offer. My wrap was $4700. This if way better than a spare tire that I had to use my voucher for. But it doesn't MIRE!

I wonder how the wrap deal works because not all service centers have wrap capabilities.

it’s interesting to see people geek out over a free wrap vs free lifetime super charging.

It’s a great deal but FSC was over the top offer IMO.

Wow, some would be happy with their $69k Tri motor, still waiting?! Just be happy!

Have no need for free supercharging but it would be cool to have.

Wonder if I bought a Foundation today 1 February they would give it to me as a reward?

Joking, that is so dumb!

We all have our priorities . An example: I would have to drive few states over for my free Tesla certified wrap, not worth it to me.

Keep it! Ha.?

In other news.
My CT is at the service center. I just check service update and my wheel covers are on. They are doing all recalls…
Man listen to those words; That’s a good reason to wait a while, glad you were able to get in, when the MY first came out, I couldn’t get a appointment for my M3 for anything routine. LOL

Dude I haven't ever used a supercharger. Most of us charge at our houses. I have another charger at my office. Let it go. I'd take the $2,500 over free supercharging 100 out of 100 times.

The FS wrap vouchers are good at Xpel authorized installers. Telsa isn’t doing the installs.

At the same measure, I’ve always used the supercharger on my 130k + mile 2017 S. Housing is expensive where I am, I live in an apartment so the network is nearly my only option. So, the FSC is worth about $1200+ every year for some of us. $1200 X 7 years for SOME of us. (Not everyone’s situation is the same, of course.) Just sharing for context/reminder not all of us are in the same situation.

Well everyone has different situations. I’m retired and use SC when traveling

I saw on another tread that a owner bought a new FS just for free supercharging and is selling his listed on this site. Now what happens if Elon does make it right. He will be super pissed. I have just seen CarGur with over 200 CT for sale under many under $85k. I contacted them and they offered me $66k. I think its a tough sell at $85 with FSC available from T with new FS. I was tempted to sell mine but I think I would have let it go for like $78 perhaps lower. But I only have a few days to decide. Boy If I did and and if E made it right I would be super pissed. MIRE
That dude is me.

Glad I did it.

Everyone has different situations and use cases.

If Musk (realistically, “Tesla”) makes all FS eligible for free SC-ing, I’ll be happy for every other early adopter. My first had nearly 20,000 miles on it. CarMax offered $71k, Carvana $72.8, and I had numerous private offers from $10 to low-eighties. Most offers were just ridiculously low or from trolls.

People are waiting because there is a lot of uncertainty in the economy in general and in Cybertruck resale pricing in particular. I live near the Barrett-Jackson auto auction and they recently sold a Beast for $115k and an AWD FS for $75k. I got more for my FS AWD than the one at the auction, and I’m good with that. I am not far from multiple SC-er locations, and I come within a 1/2 mile of one to-and-from work. So I’ve been stopping at the SC-er twice a week and eating Chick-Fil-A or running into the tactical gun store. Hell, I’m 55 in April and I’m gonna enjoy things, in the words of Jim Morrison, “before the old shithouse goes up in flames.”

If all FS early adopters get FSC-ing, hell ya!

But there is a guaranteed way to do it on your own, and that is to install solar panels.

Musk helps those that help themselves.

Cheers, mates!

yes I figured, but I find it SHADY of TESLA to

1. place the flip$50k restriction to resell the truck and then remove it in Sept.
2. then NOT BUY BACK the truck, bc they completely screwed up the MSRP and exhausted their 2 million pre-orders. If you try to trade in your CT at any Tesla location for another Tesla they DECLINE it. WHY? BC they have TOO MUCH SUPPLY AND NO DEMAND
3. I have had my CT in for service almost every month for a year for 1 - 10 days at a time.

Its been with great disappointment the way TESLA has handled their EARLY ADOPTERS...

Not to mention i still have not received my CyberHubCaps or received the email for the powershare lol .


I feel like 100% covered charging would be a wonderful gift to all the early purchasers. Have you seen the depreciation value of the FS CT lately??? almost $30k+ in losses
I have to say that if you didn’t realize when you bought this truck you were a beta tester and it would be in service more often than most vehicles, than you purchased the vehicle with rose colored glasses on. Yes, it’s a pain in the ass and the Tesla Service centers often need handholding to get something fixed correctly. But that should not be a surprise to anyone that did even a little research before they bought the vehicle. It’s the price you pay for being an early adopter. That not an excuse, but let’s face it, Tesla isn’t known for their build quality.
