Cybertruck only $68,890!

Musk is the world's biggest DB at this point. I wouldn't buy a Tesla at any price.

Do you base all of your purchases on the CEO of the comapny or just cars?

Uh, actually it is never "speed" that kills. It is sudden deceleration to zero relative velocity that kills but nobody, not the least of which Maverick and Goose has ever said " I feel the need for increasing and sustainable vector velocity acceleration"

LOL, I didn't want to introduce physics and lose some in the explanation. Clearly someone traveling 20 - 50mph over the speed limit has no grasp on physics.

I'm so surprised that guys on a Bronco forum would trash talk another car manufacturer, especially one that is all electric! (end sarcasm)

What has Ford made lately that has made headlines? Broken the mold? Become insanely profitable?

The Model Y is approaching the best-in-world selling vehicle status for '23. Tesla is the most AMERICAN MADE vehicle when supply chain and component makeup is taken into consideration. Tesla has no Union. Tesla has insane technology, new manufacturing methods (gigapresses, 48v architecture, dry electrode cell chemistry, it's own chip fab), and the biggest neural net in the world. Tesla has $23B in cash & cash equivalents on it's balance sheet. Tesla lead the EV charge and now ALL manufacturers are adopting their charging standard and converting to EV.

But don't let that stop you! Let the hating continue! The cybertruck sucks, it's a flop, Elon is a shame salesmen, all their cars are catching on fire and running people into telephone poles! Tesla is going bankrupt! Sell TSLA!

Meanwhile Ford & GM keep pumping advertising dollars into the newspapers that you are reading endless negative headlines from.

Moral of the story: people are sheeple!

Exactly! Someone commented that it's just a rich boy toy. Looks like you can get a cybertruck for less that the $93,000 Heritage limited edition my local Ford dealer is selling.

Zero dealer markup. There are no dealers. Tesla sells direct to the public. You're not subject to criminal dealer behavior.

Yes, I understand, it was a Ford dealer joke, only a few got it.

Fugly!!!

You took the word right out of my mouth!
I'll add two others: Fingerprint Magnet.

I'll stick with my Bronco until a reliable Hydrogen Powered truck arrives on the scene. EV's are a half-baked solution to personal transportation.

You’re just poor if you don’t have a CyberTruck and an iPhone 15.

 

[Dmorty217]

It’s so F*cking ugly. All EVs are outside of the Type S, Rivian, and lucid that are affordable. The Rimac Nivera is a good looking EV, not my tax bracket though. Don’t think I will ever sign on to a EV as a daily

Cammisa does the best reviews. Love or hate the vehicle, but Cammisa is the man!

Thanks for posting that. I enjoyed it. I like the cyber truck.

Need a garbage can for this thread

I like to tell my med crew, if we lose an engine it won’t be the fall that kills us, it’ll be the sudden stop. Same thing applies to the people I’m scooping up off the highways.

I wouldn't buy a Cybertruck for the following reasons:

1. The warrantIes on the other Tesla vehicles can be voided if:
a. You hit a pothole
b. Vehicle is driven on a dirt road
(The CT Warranty could be the same)

2. The CT's weight will cause the following:
a. Tires to be replaced more frequently, more so than the Tesla vehicles
b. Suspension will wear quickly
c. The CT will be too heavy to go off-roading/limited usage.

3. Insurance will be expensive

4. Boring Interior for the price

My coworker currently has a Model Y. He wants the Cybertruck. I tried to talk him into an R1T to no avail, so now I'm pushing him on the Cybertruck so everyone will laugh at him behind his back (AND so I can drive the piss out of it). He thinks it can do anything and everything, so I'd love to let him chase me on some real trails, too. For "research."

If this "research" happens, please YouTube it for all our enjoyment!

Glad Tesla finally got this thing out of the door, but in the end, just another rich boi toi.

Absolutely. You’ll only see these a the valet in Stowe and Cape Cod. Similar to the Hummer EV.

Like I said, the guy is the world's biggest DB. That's not hyperbole. I wouldn't buy a Tesla for many reasons. He's one.

There are a lot of negatives to EVs, cost, range, cold weather and so on. But few people talk about resale. If after 8-10 years the battery needs to be replaced and the cost is $20-30K, how much is a 7 year old EV worth? Practically zero. When you factor that in, and the cost of electricity, and the original cost, EVs are really expensive. And, by the way, you really aren't saving the planet.
