I wrote them too. A bit more wordy than yours, but I pointed out that this "you scratch my back I'll scratch yours" deal is a win-win-win situation. Tesla wins because they don't have to send our Cybertrucks all over kingdom come and risk damage or destruction from accidents and lookie-loos, and...

Thanks. I would not be happy having to pay a presumably $2,000 plus delivery fee when I can fly to Austin for a mere $150 and have a leisurely drive home. That would not be my idea of service orientation at all.

My example was not to be taken literally. It was simply a "for example" offering with extremes to make the point.

Many likeminded CT buyers. I sent a tweet to Elon. Perhaps it will help if others do too? I'll fly from Northwest Arkansas and drive back after seeing the sites that Tesla offers. Won't get down there if I simply have to wait on a delivery truck and pay a hefty sum. Can't be two places at the...

I've seen this question raised but not in a thread. If I overlooked it I'm sorry, but are we going to be permitted to take delivery of our CT's in Austin and avoid a delivery fee? I tweeted this question to Elon but haven't seen a response yet. If not, why not? Seems perfectly reasonable to me...

Not only that, but he could always simply defer to another topic; take a different question, and leave the questioner hanging. Might actually be a good strategy! Figuring 2 years from the unveiling of the CT, I estimated delivery 3 years hence. Then Tesla Chat told me I MIGHT get mine by mid...

How to manage the "wait": it is really quite simple and practical. Purpose to pay 100% cash for it on arrival. Save like the dickens. You will discover your "wait anxiety" replaced with "will it arrive before I am ready anxiety?" Doesn't matter. Save hand over fist and you may or may not have to...

Smart man! I'm doing the same. As an aside, I leased a Toyota Avalon once and when the 3 year lease was up, they wouldn't let me buy it and charged for every fly speck on it. I bought another new one. Learned my lesson about leasing!

Compressed paper of course! Really, that white dash looks gawd awful! A Model 3 "wood" version or even a blackened SS would be better. Honestly, almost ANYTHING would be better than the whitish paper, even black vinyl. ANYTHING except white paper!

Think: if there is a #1 and a #500,000 in Hawaii or Alaska, do you think they are going to make two deliveries based on "first in line"? Guarantee you #700,000 in San Antonio is going to see theirs long before #1 in Alaska or Hawaii. I saw this on one of the groupie youtube programs, and they...

I ordered mine way back when it was 7k. Don't mess with the reservation I understand because you lose your better pricing. It is considered a new order if you do.

Yep! As long as it will fit in my garage and parking spaces. For what it is worth, Elon first said 5% smaller, then he said 3% smaller, then he said same size, then I heard somewhere one inch narrower and 6 inches shorter, so it is anybody's guess. Guess we'll have to wait "a month or so" to...

If they didn't bungle it, they probably stole our formula.

Some things are hard to bungle, even for the Chinese. Could it be what's under it?

The way I understand deliveries, you could still be first in line depending on where you live. I'm in the 70,000+ range and live in Arkansas, not TOO far from Austin. Would be glad to pick it up in Austin if that is an option. Who knows?

In my opinion you are way over analyzing. If you want the Cybertruck order what you can afford and start seriously saving in the meantime. I'm a retired doctor but I'm driving a 1993 Dodge beater truck after my Chrysler 300 C Hemi blew. I'm saving out the wazoo. Couldn't justify the extra 20k...

They are all made in China, American or not. Tesla is an American Company with American standards too. That is little comfort when it comes to all the shoddy stuff that comes out of China, like toxic gypsum wallboard, Cadmium laced paint for children's toys, Melamine tainted dog food responsible...

From what I have read, it doesn't matter where in line you are, whether 70,000 +/- or 700,000. Deliveries will start in batches based on proximity to Austin and progress based on where you fall in the radius. If #1 is in Maine or Alaska, they could be last to get theirs. Forget Hawaii, they'll...

Yes. I'll stretch my garage to fit. Either that or make sure outdoors is big enough!
