The number of processes doesn't change the output speed but it may, as you say, affect how long it takes to get all the processes up to speed. It's the speed of the slowest process that matters. If a process takes 2 minutes but you have 4 of those machines working at the same time, the process speed rate of production would be 30 seconds. (120 sec/4 machines = 30 seconds per machine)CT ramp progress should not be extrapolated from MY ramp!!! There is no need for many welds, body panels and most importantly exterior paint which is time consuming. 10k should be easily surpassed in less than 6 months.
giga cast
Weld on steel panels
Insert structural pack, electronics and seats from under
Bolt on drive units with suspension
Add interior
Ad external parts like lights and glass
Self test
Done!
CT production line should be mind bendingly short and fast! The entire CT is designed to be made fast, no so with M3 and MY.
The tracker says I'm 55,237 and I'm hoping my factory proximity gives me dibsWhat's your res number?
I'm way down the list but since Tesla plans to push out the first ones by geographic location, Quad motor, solar vault cover, FSD, and my area has allocations for 100, I should be riding in mine as soon as June! (The previous statement may be 100% wish material and in no way reflects Tesla's actual plan unless done so accidentally)The tracker says I'm 55,237 and I'm hoping my factory proximity gives me dibs
So I do think you're a little overly optimistic, but hope not. Austin, seriously? That's just not playing fair. You could probably walk to pick it up.The tracker says I'm 55,237 and I'm hoping my factory proximity gives me dibs
On that topic, anyone know what became of the rumors that they were having lots of quality issues on the castings, and were looking for another company to make the presses?. I believe once Tesla produces its first perfect castings, everything will go like crazy. ...
Tesla is installing an IDRA casting system and it hasn't been reassembled and might not have been tested with a CT mold, I'd call it FUD by someone who loves ICE vehicles.On that topic, anyone know what became of the rumors that they were having lots of quality issues on the castings, and were looking for another company to make the presses?
Was just FUD?
At which part of the Cybertruck reveal did you actually place your order? I recall trying to place my order near the end of the reveal but the website was already overloaded and it kept rejecting my order so it took about 15 minutes to get it to work.I know we aren't supposed to believe that google spreadsheet with the time estimates based on our order number...
According to that form. My tri will be in the first 2000 trucks. This was also before talk of the Quad taking priority and then Tri motor so... who knows.
I'm honestly just looking forward to learning about the final specs, pricing etc.

My number is 112784xxx and the tracker puts me about 40K back from the front of the line.
Please remember the tracker is a guess... I placed my order the following morning and I'm way back in the 80,000 according to the tracker in line with people that placed orders 2 -3 days after reveal ...At which part of the Cybertruck reveal did you actually place your order?
