I sure hope they make the exact concept. Kinda took a lot of elements from Hummer EV. Bring on completion and hopefully lower costs.

I thought it was cool and had lots of nice features. Whether it comes out is not my concern, but I do hope that Tesla pays attention to all these features.
Every polysyllabic feature adds $5,000 to the price.

I’d like Tesla to just focus on getting the truck they promised in the ballpark of the price they promised. A nano stone floor and Apple leather seats hold no interest to me.

Hmmm. Interesting at best, never saw no SS body, so not for me. Has some cool features that will hopefully siphon some sales away and bring Cybertruck to me a little faster! That's the extent of my interest.

I wish I hadn’t.

Was hoping they would have some actual facts about the truck like final range or price.
Why would they need to release things like final range and price? Just pull a Tesla and, months before you‘re supposed to ramp production of your long awaited vehicle, just continue to keep it a secret. People around here eat that up. Then you allow people to just pretend and insert whatever fantasy they’re hoping for (500 mile range, 45k base model price, it serving as a boat, etc.). This allows your customer base to hype the product, while having no knowledge whatsoever about its actual specs 180 days before its purported launch.

That’s what I’d do.

"Put it down on paper and we will see later what can and can't be done"

This is their process or ambition, which is fair enough.

But to say:

"Tell them everything for now" - is missleading and wrong.

Very wrong. I've gotten tired of blatant lies. It is unashamed these days.

Not me. I meant functional features and you know that is what I meant because we Cybertruck fans are function over form believers. Tesla hasn’t shared anything about the interior of the CT with us since the unveiling, so if they have been watching the competition they might have picked up on some functionally good things.

Ram will ship a truck.

It will likely look like vaguely this.

How much else the two share in common is a giant mystery.

You tell me how many of these features make it to the final:
  • Passthru that goes all the way into the frunk
  • 3 rows of sliding seats
  • Shadow Mode
  • Nano Stone
  • Polychromatic Glass
  • Wireless charging
  • Inductive Robot Charger
  • 4 wheel steering up to 15 degrees of articulation
  • Adjustable air suspension
  • How long will the bed be (This looks like about 5 foot)
What are the real features and what is fantasy?

You want to nit pick over the fact that the Cybertruck’s specs are going to shift a bit, but fundamentally we’ve seen the truck. The prototypes have echoed the final. No bullshit, no nanostone whatever, no polychromatic glass you might or might not see in the end.

Do you really think there will be a robotic charger? :ROFLMAO:
Exactly. By "the production version won't look anything like that" I mean stuff like the lack of a b-pillar, the seats, the sci-fi glass, the gazillion motorized gizmo's, trimless windows, super sculpted body panels etc...

If all of those bed and cargo features make it to production... freakin awesome. I cant wait to see the "production" model in a few months. I really appreciate Stellantis rapid change to electric.
