It was never going to be great at towing long distances, until the network caught up.

Why did you put down for the Foundation Series if you didn't want to play the early adopter game and have the truck before that was worked out?

It'll be good at everything else.

It’s not going to tow as much as u want. Have you looked at the extra battery? I don’t tow, but I wanted to take road trips around the country. Most of my driving will be short trips in town. Also, if your tow destination has a charger, it might work.

Can you get your deposit back? Wish I could take the order off of your hands and leave you with some money in your pocket. I’m waiting for my VIN and would gladly take delivery of another Cybertruck. Would use both for our business.

I was hopeful the range would be at least 180 miles while towing. Yes it will be great at everything thing else.

Totally depends on what you're towing, what your speed is and what the shape of what you're towing is.

Seems a little late in the game to be questioning imo

But once range extender comes you'll likely get 180. If Jerry rig everything got about 100 pulling Max load.

Also, idk if you were trying to cross out RN and vin on your screenshot, but it uh didn't work lol

The range extender should get you 180 towing…

I configured on 12/9/2023

See my post about my reservation, currently debating selling it.

I got the email on 12/8 and it took me until 12/31 to get over the shock and realization if I wanted a CT in 2024, I had to order a FSCT. Since they are handing out VINs for 12/9 now, it will be no sooner than March, if then, before I get a VIN. 23 days delay was costly in terms of delivery time!

I did the same thing, emailed on 12/8, and ordered on 12/22. Hoping to get in the middle of February.

How many pounds will you be towing and how far? The great thing about where you live, up and down the 99 an I-5 there is charging every 15 miles.

What state are you in?
