Would you have Purchased the CT if, "it looked more like a normal truck?"

[mrcarcrazy]

Since you asked…here’s my CT story.

Tesla was offering FSD owners free rollovers and I wasn’t convinced that my 2019 M3P was going to ever obtain true FSD so I took a leap of faith that maybe a HW4 vehicle would.
I test drove a new M3P, a CT, and a model S (was eyeing the plaid but they refused to let me drive one)….i honestly think that decision lost them a plaid sale as the interior on the regular model s was atrocious wood grain and it changed the experience for me.

After the test drives I was leaning M3P as I refuse to drop 120k on a car I can’t test drive on principle and the regular model s felt old and shitty. The CT was cool but I wasn’t sold on the massive size.

I forced my wife to ride in each of them as well…this is where the tides shifted. Her impressions were basically “the only one worth buying is the CT”. It was hilarious, after sitting in the CT she was sold. Passenger princess was smiling.

Her daily is a C8 corvette for reference.

I now daily the CT and find the size larger than “perfect”, however holy crap is it useful. I find the appearance comical and my personality is one that enjoys irritating others. The fact that people hate it brings me a tiny bit of joy. FSD is massively better than it was on my model 3 and that’s important as I drive about 70miles daily for my commute. Well that’s a lie. The truck drives 70 miles daily for my commute.

The Cybertruck has 6-feet bed, 5-seats, a frunk, a flat cabin floor...... and can completely drive itself from point A to point B (with FSD.)

Mind is AWD, and it has both front-and-rear mechanical locking differentials.

With four wheel steering, it could make a U-turn in tight streets that my RAM couldn't.

Friends said mine (with the wrap) looked like the M577 APC in the Aliens movie, and I kinda liked it, lol.

Heck, I will buy it again.

Wrap looks great, is it black or grey?

Thanks, I think the wrap was called Meteorite Grey (PPT satin finish.)

When my wife saw the unveiling of the Cyber Truck in 2019, her first reaction was: "I've got to get one of those!!". She made a reservation the next day. Then in Jan 2024 when she received the offer for early delivery of the "Foundation Series" package, her reaction was: "YES!!". We took delivery in June 2024.
When our neighbor saw it coming down the street that first day he described it as a "Space Ship". Personally I can go with "Space Ship", "BBQ Grill", or "Refrigerator". It doesn't matter how you describe it. It's a technological wonder and years ahead of the competition. My wife loves it, Kids love it, it's a BLAST to drive it, and the FSD is awesome.

My wife lobbied heavily against it (has since come around) but in our house "Spaceship!!!" (spoken just like Benny from the Lego Movie) is the moniker of choice.

Life sounds good!

You have two "keepers" (the Cybertruck and your wife). What more could a man want?

You have two "keepers" too! Nice!

I think you should stick with the "spaceship" moniker considering you live in Roswell (even if it is Roswell, GA and not NM)!
