i'm skeptical that Tesla could have produced a RWD Cybertruck for $39,990 even in 2019 -- never mind 2025.

Compare that number to the price of a 2019 Model 3 RWD Standard Range Plus (the most popular versIon of the M3 at that time). The RWD M3 was priced at $41,100.

So in 2019, Tesla assumed that they could offer a RWD Cybertruck for about the same price as a RWD Model 3. That was simply not a realistic assumption, either in 2019 or 2025.
ALL TESLA MODELS ARE CHEAPER TODAY THAN THEY WERE IN 2019! ENOUGH SAID!

I predict a revised RWD CT will return. 2026?
That’s what I was thinking. They put out the “Long Range” trim, instantly regretted it, scrapped it, and are back at the drawing board now. One of the first things Elon said during the unveiling was that in order to solve sustainable energy, they had to have a pickup truck. I highly doubt we’ve seen the end of it.

On the other hand, I could also see them accepting that CT is another niche vehicle like S/X and may not waste time redesigning anything, so it’s kind of a toss up. Who knows?

Like many have already said, when it comes back it will likely seem a much better value compared to the AWD and Beast which are both likely to have the luxe package attached.

I had the opposite issue: my money went up in value between ordering the CT on day 1 compared to the price on the day I had to buy it. My money was going up so fast compared to the dollar that I decided not to spend my money on the FS-B but to borrow dollars instead and my money has not quite doubled against the dollar since then.

My 2019 price was 13.15, price at time of purchase as 2.25 and cost today assuming I don’t pay off the loan prematurely is 1.35…

This is why one buys bitcoin. It’s the secret to not getting poor slowly…but only in the long run.
This^^^. Hard to wrap your head around it but once you do……..

I still can’t wrap my head around it.
It’s absolutely worth trying to. Not much different than trying to convince someone the CT is the best vehicle out there. You have to take the time to learn it and experience it. Judging from the sidelines is a waste of time. Most people don’t like it because they don’t understand it and what they don’t realize is that they don’t understand money in general.

It’s like trying drive by wire and FSD for the first time, it’s strange, amazing, and quickly you realize you can’t live without it.

So what is a good introduction?. I own some crypto funds but not any crypto directly.

I can send you a DM if you prefer.

Depends on how you like your info: Books, audiobooks, videos, podcasts, or personal conversations. Bitcoin and Crypto are actually worlds apart from each other. Funds can be good under some circumstances, but holding the actual asset is the real life hack.
