how many saturdays ago was that shot of all the happy employees at the beginning of production? two months? lemme know when they really start building the f’n things…
Something tells me you've never built a truck from scratch before. Or put it into mass production.

Ask me how I know.

In every recent CT picture with tow hooks, the left hook always looks rusted

Master candidate means when they have all the parts, put them together best, and all others should match it. Nothing should be missing from this one except software. Prior ones could be missing plastics or non drive train electronics or accessories that wouldn't change the rest of the vehicle.

It's used for certification and examples for the process of manufacture.

So someone check that truck for where the outlets are hidden...

You won't be able to see the hood at all nor will the interior ever reflect on a closed hood... they lie in the same plane. You'd have to stick your head through the windshield to see the closed hood and THAT would be a very bad day.
That's a good thing. Thanks.

Later in October is more likely, I wouldn’t be surprised if we don’t hear anything til 10.1 along the lines of “can’t wait to deliver first Cybertrucks later this month”

Their was a rumor that Elon was going to build a residence on the outskirts of Giga Tx and bore tunnels between his house and many of the buildings on the property.
Sounds like an Elon thing to do.

If one was curious why a tri motor build was so nicely cleaned up for today (she’s the president of Hungary)

So EM is going to save the world by having babies with the president of Hungry!

Big E takes this world population thing seriously.

In the 1970's Panel Vans were the 'craze' here in Oz. Looks like 'Panel Gaps' are the latest 'gaze'
Not all gaps are bad... thigh gaps come to mind.

The tide of public opinion is shifting away from 'gap' concerns, particularly with the impending CT delivery start. Tesla owners don't seem to think its a priority when taking delivery of their New vehicle. imo
Coming back to your point, is it 'The End Is Thigh' or 'The Tide Is Thigh, and l'm holding on' ( Blondie )

Nice to see tow hooks. I use those frequently for tie downs. I'm hoping for a roof rack option. (I may not need it though if a bed to cab pass-through miraculously rises from the ashes of our crushed dreams.)
