Unpopular opinion: I totally agree with him.

I selfishly want the Cybertruck to be more expensive and sell fewer units, so I can have one of the only ones on the road 😆
I'm exactly the opposite. For years I've been anticipating the CT to be like The Mustang in 65. Huge interest for a year or so, and then everywhere you look there were Mustangs. People still liked them but not gaga over them at least. I really don't look forward to having an early CT, and having people gawking and taking photos of my truck. But I did reserve one, the night of the reveal.

I agree. I had an early Model 3 that I still love. But when it was new, it was the only one on the road and stood out like a sore thumb. I didn't like that, I'm more into blending in.

It will be impossible to do that for the first 2-3 years in a Cybertruck, but I'm willing to deal with it in exchange for having so much better of a truck. I never really enjoyed driving our F-150, so it was only used on a necessary basis, and I would go far out of my way to not have to drive it. For example:

One time I needed to get a 9-foot-long pressure treated 6"x6" from my home to my cabin, a drive just shy of 2 hours. It was heavy but I put the ski racks on the roof of my Model 3 and lashed the thing on top, simply to avoid having to bring the truck, in perfect condition with only 40K miles on it, out to the cabin. If I had the Cybertruck, I wouldn't have hesitated to throw the 6"x6" in the bed and tie it off so it would be secure if I felt like letting some ponies loose!

Here's what I needed the 9-foot-long 6"x6" for:

Tesla Cybertruck Jim Cramer thinks Cybertruck may not sell even 50K a year... Elon responds: "This is a good omen! Inverse Cramer never fails 😂" 1698946867255

Now my cabin is all set to charge my Cybertruck at 48 amps at 10 cents/kWh.

I get why inverse Cramer is a thing now. Hilarious....
This goes to how much research goes into his recommendation on stocks too.

And this is why pricing threads are bad.

-Crissa
I think you mean, this is why "news" agencies shouldn't report on anonymous randos on the internet saying that Tesla reached out to them lol.

But pricing threads are bad. I agree lol.

Private message me if you are in the area and want to charge in the North Cascades, I leave my charging unit powered up 24/7 so others can use it when I'm not around. For the time being, it's still kind of a charging desert on Mount Baker Highway, which is a dead-end highway into the heart of the North Cascades. I've already found a couple of notes left by random EV drivers who used it while I was away.

Was there a check attached to the note??
