Wonder how many go for the 'Underbody Armour ' !?!?!
Could it be a DYI project......laser cut sheet of 30X would be KOOL. C'mon Elon, a simple digital 'blue print' ( open-sourced ) and an IKEA Allen key! $20 bucks from Tesla Shop!?!?!?

You’ll be much better served by a skid system with UHMW which in reality is like industrial cutting board. The magic is the way it allows you to slide over obstacles vs scoring metal.

Is that the same rack that has the shovels at the lithium breaking ground ceremony?

Those bumpers and rock sliders might have to happen eventually.

Its sad that a capable truck like the CT, an excercise in efficiency, will be subjected to the same tacky truck accessorization craze infecting the ice truck bubba world. Street trucks made to look like rock climbers or baja racers that spend all or 99% of miles commuting to work.

Looks like vaporware.

Wut? There isn't an extension pole on the Starlink dish, that's the arm that is part of the dish assembly. :rolleyes:

Tesla has a long history of cutting prices, especially on performance versions of vehicles. What we now know is the launch pricing and maybe even the 2024 pricing. The 2025 pricing is anyone's guess but will probably be lower. I think the strategy here (as always with new Tesla vehicles) is to hold out an extra year. You will get a lot more for less in early 2025.

I guess they figure if we are willing to pay $80k for a $50k truck you are willing to pay $1,100 for a trailer hitch. :ROFLMAO:
Well, there’s always the $100 bed storage system. Oh, wait … I think they dropped a zero, or maybe two zeroes.

New one doesn't have a leg to stand on. It's completely flat with a fold out stand, and you have to pint it in the right direction yourself.
