Tesla's futuristic Cybertruck revealed: up to 500 miles of range, can go 0-60 in 2.9 seconds

Future is coming sooner that we have expected. About about the SUV market something different than everything out there already. This truck like look good but the price would keep everyone out of the market. If they sold it for 10K more people could be driving it.
 
@learninmypc I thought there was an earlier "rumor article", with an "artist's conception", of what Tesla's truck was going to look like, and it looked more like that, than what the actual prototype does.

I went back 8 pages in "news", but couldn't find the article. So, if anybody remembers the exact title, by all means link ir forward to this thread..

(Or I could be magical thinking on my part. Hey, it happens).
 
That looks worlds better than the square piece of sh!t they have now....[ ]...
FIXED..!

That monstrosity looks like something made from a "Lego Junior Diamond Cutter's Starter Set".

Please don't take that to mean I think it's, "a diamond in the rough", I absolutely do not.
 
I'm thinking Musk should stick to blowing up his toy rockets

If you posted one such comment on every time NASA blew up something during their test programs your keyboard would have ran out of ink until now.

Who cares how it looks when it is that cheap, it does not cause cancer, it does not need fuel and requires no maintenance??? Oh... you...

But Dave, you know these keyboards don't use ink.

Musk has been given the largess of 80 +years of rocket science, but tends to strike out and blow sh!t up , "doing it his way".

And Dave, since we're speaking in the hypothetical, metaphorical, and hyperbole, if you listed NASA's successes, you'd run out of ink., paper, and give yourself carpal tunnel syndrome in the process.

Well, I'm thinking the >projected< price points of 40K, 50K, & 60K, aren't what the average American would call "cheap". If you yourself could walk into the showroom, plunk down 50K and drive away without financing, the consider yourself much better off than at least 90+% of all Americans.

At some point everything "breaks". When you're dealing with a commercial vehicle, stuff breaks more. Hey, maybe you can get a million miles out of the motors. hooray! But everything else on the vehicle will break. Trust me on this, I used to work in fleet maintenance. How about yourself, have you changed a GMC tractor clutch recently?

As far as pollution goes, yes, electric vehicles pollute less, and it's by proxy from the electricity generation plants. And since we're not allowed to have nukes anymore, we're still burning coal in some plants. Which BTW, pollutes.,

How many square feet of solar cells would you need to power that truck? Because that's the only way you could realistically and categorically state, "it doesn't" pollute".

So do try to contain your hyperboly and Musk fanboyism. With Musk's ability to bullsh!t, make vague promises he doesn't keep, and convince himself he's the "messiah of scientific advancement", he really doesn't need you as his wingman
 
Almost every comment I've read has said in one way or another that the truck is ugly. Did no one at Tesla state this? I guess the rumor that management at Tesla doesn't encourage dissent is true.

Musk is, (I suspect, as well as reportedly), tyrannical as a boss. It does call into question, how much input from the body design department was even permitted.

Or perhaps the body designers concocted that turd, then blew a bunch of sun shine up Musk's a**, telling him, "you're so clever, we would have never thought of that. It's brilliance on a cosmic level. BTW, how's your dummy doing in your space roadster"?

Tesla does hemorrhage money severely quarter over quarter. That said, it calls into question why the sudden drop in deposit amount, and how many reservations will actually stick and become sales.

Tesla was handing deposit money back hand over fist, when it turned out the Model 3 wasn't going to arrive in anywhere near the promised time or quantities.

Was it just me or was Elon's presentation just out of sync? I'm glad he spoke without a script but it seemed to have been done by a 10 year old kid and organized 30 minutes before the actual presentation.
