Confirmed: Original US Reservation List Exhausted

[Jack27]

Below is the exhaustive list. I really tried to find issues with the truck. I know a lot of folks would not care but i cared for my $120k so wanted to make sure it was flawless and that was the downfall of it. Service center was able to take care of almost all of these issues but in my mind, I had grown a distrust with the truck already. I could not digest the fact that the biggest pieces of glasses on the truck needed full replacement and this was for a brand new truck. Anyway, I hope and wish the build quality has improved from that point.
1. Left Passanger Door Misaligned.
2. Left tailgate Misaligned.
3. Left upper triangle trim piece not flushed at the front joint.
4. Left upper triangle trim piece not aligned with the rear panel.
5. Frunk panel gap mismatch at between left and right.
6. Frunk not flushed with left and right front panel.
7. Right upper triangle trim piece not flushed at the front joint.
8. Front right wheel arch minor damage (less than 3mm).
9. Rear right wheel arch minor damage (less than 10 mm).
10. Scuff mark below CyberBeast logo on tailgate.
11. Front glass interior has weird fogging patterns.
12. White interior still has black spots from handling.
13. Front windshield needed replacement due to multiple arc scratches.
14. Truck bed top mount covers are not flushed.
15. Truck bed top plastic trim on left side has bulging.
16. Left rear door interior trim is loose
17. Top rear glass side plastric trim is loose at multiple location on both sides.
18. Right rear side door has minor misaligment.
19. top roof panel back and front side has bowing and seems seal has come off and needed replacement.
20. Interior squeaking noise from drivers seat.

I grew up detailing cars and working at a detail shop. When you wax cars you find allot of things wrong . I’m of the belief that if you combed over many cars you would find the same build quality issues and “panel alignment “ issues. I look at mine and yeah I see like a little non alignment but hey it’s a big ass truck and it just doesn’t bother me . I’m sure some of those issues are legit but that also comes with being one of the first owners!

That’s crazy. I guess if you can afford $80, you can afford $100. Some subset of people waited, but many just pulled the trigger already.

You would think but it appears many here won’t buy the truck “yet” because a $7500 tax credit ?

I think the bare-bones CyberTtuck is perfect..

why would I want to ‘finance’ floor mats, wheels/tires, and all the other little accessories?

that being said, I’m happy with the $10/month for premium connectivity… or just use my phone and key-card if push comes to shove.

FSD isn’t quite to my liking yet.. I have owned my ModelY for a few years now and FSD is still not that…

As I said... YMMV and my comment was IMHO. The greatest thing IMHO that sets Tesla from all other EVs is the FSD and the tech. I have driven in Fords with Bluetooth, Rivians, etc, and none of them come even close to Tesla's tech. For the cost of a CT, you can get a much nicer "car" experience with a Ford Lightening or Rivian R1T. But if you are in it for the amazing tech, Tesla is where its at and smokes them all.

As for financing all the "accessories", isn't that what 99% of the people do when they finance a car? Don't they finance those items as well?

RN1167 (Mar 2022) in PA. Was not expecting this until 2025.

Got Non-Foundation invite last evening. Never owned or even drove a Tesla until CT test drive a few weeks ago.

Will hold out for a point of sale tax credit when/if available, even though I much prefer the AT wheels.

Or get delivery at the end of the year, file your taxes the first week in January and get the $7500.00 back pretty quick.

There are a ton of factors that go into new product reservation schedules. How long have you owned a Tesla vehicle? If a few years, then you would probably be far more likely to fast track a sale. Also, we are in the last quarter of the year. They are going to send out reservations that are most likely to complete the sale, not necessarily ones who reserved first.

It is a hypothesis. I say, let's ask the Forum.

my comment wasn’t a debate… simply my opinion also..

Sounds like standard Tesla build. I’ve had mine into the SC 5 times for the Tonneau cover not working properly. Both the front doors are misaligned and there are squeaks all over. I still think it’s sick and I’d do it all over again. ?

The conversion rate appears to be pretty low right now.

I think it’s a combination of the still premium $80k MSRP, buyers waiting for a 2025 model and a wait and see attitude regarding a future $7500 federal tax credit.

Tesla might be facing a demand problem for the Cybertruck in the next 6-12 months. I predict that the $61k RWD Cybertruck may be coming sooner than we think.

yeah 80-100k vehicle is still a huge purchase. A lot of reservations were because of the teaser prices in 2019.

I also got an Invite to configure I have a solar roof but not a car yet from Tesla, my reservation is from June of 2023.

I'll be interested at the end of the day how people's end prices end up looking. The bare bones CT kinda sucks (IMHO). It really does need some add-ons that make it nicer. Some stuff can go and is probably irrelevant like the white interior... but other stuff is really nice, such as FSD and the Premium Internet. Its nice not to have to get a nickel-dime bill for connectivity each month... it reminds me of bag fees for airlines... just include it in the price so you don't get that feeling like your wallet is getting picked from monthly (can you tell I hate subscriptions?). I own big trucks and I like beefy tires... the AT tires are a must, especially if you plan on really doing off-roading with it. So at the end, my price on a CT wouldn't be too far off from what I got a Foundation Series for. This is all my opinion of course and YMMV. I'm interested where other folks final price lies.

Cannot understand why someone would want a stripped down bare bones CT.

That your truck not mine .

I created a CT reservation in mid-July of this year (RN 12222XXXX). Just two weeks later (Aug 2nd) we were invited to configure a Foundation Series. Today we received an invite to configure a non-foundation series. I went to the configurator and built a DM which showed Oct-Nov delivery (presumably out of inventory). Same for CyberBeast. So I am calling it: original (US) reservation list is basically finished.

You seem to have forgotten about people like me, that ordered a truck, but are waiting for the cheaper version. Almost 6 years.
