Tesla Cybertruck Debuts With Less Range, Towing Capacity, and a Higher Price Than Promised

not hating. Just facts. like to see more truck features. i like they copied the lighting with the power outlets and fold up rear seats for storage.
Who said it would never go into production? Never is a long time. Be like saying it’ll never go out of production.

He thinks anything that's not 100% sympathetic to Tesla is a FUD site.

The Teslerati-fu is strong with him.

Tesla delivered the first Cybertrucks yesterday, and with that delivery event came the revelation that in order to get the...
I didn’t. Actually, I don’t recall seeing the cost for any of it, the vehicle or options or anything else.
That's not terrible for someone who can fork over $100K for the vehicle. But to most people that is ridiculous.
That actually sounds pretty reasonable. Batteries are expensive. I’m curious about how good the warranty for it is.
No one who can afford it needs the extra pack. They are not towing anything. Plus I don’t think it’ll be easy to get it in and out of the truck.
Meh. I’ve never been interested in flipping stuff like that. Never had that “make a quick buck” mentality. I just don’t care about money that much. I could flip my GT3 and make a quick 30-40K. But I want the car, not the money.
That's a good point. Seems wasteful and gluttonous, but that is what some of these Tesla and Elon bros like Rogan do. Look at me, look at me.
You don’t like easy money? Not talking about selling stuff you like. I’m talking about free money.
My neighbor just traded his ICE F150 for a Lighting. 3rd one in town.
It’s not clear how long it’ll be possible to flip a CT. Initially, people won’t know what sorts of problems there are with it. But I suspect this first generation will have a lot of issues. And if so, once that gets out, it’ll drive down the prices. Also, once Teslaramps up production, that’ll drive down prices.
The early production runs will probably have collector value though no? Especially year 1. Especially if, as expected, there won't be many produced in year 1.
I mean, any performance car, and even luxury car, is wasteful and gluttonous no?
Yes. Always thought the Hummer was a stupid vehicle. Same so with the Hummer EV. Seems they will not be delivered to 2024.
I've actually seen an EV Hummer. I think there were 900 delivered as of the 3rd qtr, so it's definitely still pretty rare.
It’s actually a very capable off-roader. But not going to beat a 911 in a 0-60.
I saw one a while ago, i think last winter, one time. Maybe the dude works for GM. It was bad ass, big and with lots of running lights, unique on the road.
I’ve seen one in CA. Great looking vehicle for sure. Seeing something that big glide by silently was interesting
Don’t know, maybe. I’ve never had any interest in collecting cars or anything else, really. I guess just about any car will have collector value if barely driven, perfectly maintained, and kept long enough after production ceases, no?
Was chatting about that with a friend last night. IMO, yes, pretty much any expensive car is wasteful and gluttonous. So is eating filet mignon when cheap London Broil serves the same dietary need.
Ya, anything besides the most utilitarian of vehicles is "wasteful". Or hopping in the car when you could walk or take a bike. Watching TV when you could just read a book. Taking cold showers instead of hot.
Well this flew of the point as usual. Let's stick to EVs and their purported purpose-to save the planet. Maybe they should be more utilitarian. That was the point. I have a 1967 Mustang V8 convertible and I don't have one shred of guilt owning or driving it.
