Trying to be less wrong
Considering GM's battery reliability thus far, I think there's a strong case for designing with serviceability in mind. They have no other choice. Tesla doing that for the roadster and early S was a good call, not a mistake. The real mistake was taking too long to switch to a cell-to-pack architecture once reliability had improved. Elon said this in an interview a while back, mentioning that this kind of stuff has inertia and they neglected to revisit the premises behind their design rationale. In 2021, Tesla can get away with gluing the cells together and making them structurally integral because their cell reliability and BMS performance is so amazing. This just illustrates the massive advantage of Tesla over GM in pack design.

The auto-rags love it.
How many six figure mega-toys people will buy is a whole other story. If they can only sell 5,000 of them, how much profit can they really make?
A GM engineer informed me that thing will weigh 9000 pounds FFS.
Hummers were never subtle, but that thing is a joke.

Cybertruck
Cybertruck is designed to have the utility of a truck with sports car performance. Built to be durable, versatile, capable and high-performance both on-road and off-road.
FSD pricing step changes coming, or turning to subscription only soon?
Let speculations begin!

So quick recap so far:
-Leo is planning to buy another 1M shares in Q4.
-UK has opened up Model Y orders.
-Texas Insurance is now live.
-FSD Beta for score of 99 and under in 2 weeks.
-Accountant & Rob Maurer -expecting > 2.00 /2.15 for earnings next week.
-even Gordon Johnson believes good results this quarter
-return of bullish sentiment overall in market
-covid cases dwindling back down
-tsla apparently at 91% from ATH
Any reason I shouldn’t pick up more shares today at the usual 10 o’clock dip?

Wow. No configuration at all. No single, dual, or tri motor. I'm glad I ordered a second one just days ago.CyberTruck page updated, details including pricing about different trims removed from both the page and the pre order page, also you can no longer select FSD or lock in price for pre orders.Cybertruck

Berlin and Austin starting production this Q
It’s only $10/ pound, same as the Cybertruck right?
You don’t buy trucks by the pound?
I pre-ordered a second Cybertruck about a month ago wondering about the possibility of FSD pricing going up or just general pricing increases.CyberTruck page updated, details and pricing about different trims removed from both the page and the pre order page, also you can no longer select FSD or lock in price for orders.Cybertruck

Of course the changes go beyond that. Can’t update existing configurations, they don’t even mention there are 3 configurations any more.
Canada 3 SR+ Prices increased by 2k CAD from today.
Vanderbilt was literally founded with the wealth of railroad tycoon Cornelius Vanderbilt, one of the richest Americans who ever lived.

As someone who has been playing with FSD beta over the last few days, I would be interested in an explanation of how Tesla intends to overcome what appears (to me) to be a limitation with their FSD approach...
So, no dependency on hi-def maps using vision, right?
I had FSD take me on a route that required it drive out of a parking lot at a traffic light. This exit had 2 lanes on my side- the left lane went left and the right lane went straight or right. It was also at the top of a small incline at a traffic light. My route required being in the left lane to turn left. So FSD began to execute this maneuver, fairly slowly and turned right to begin the short drive up the incline where it needed to be in the left lane. Only it turned right into the right lane and then realized it needed to be in the left lane, so it cautiously started moving into the left lane, only it didn't have enough room before the light. So I sat at the red light kind of in both lanes.
So, here's the limitation I concluded: The car drove exactly like a first time driver that had never been at that intersection would have. But, once a "meat" driver learned that intersection, they would have learned how to handle it better and safer on subsequent drives. Their first encounter was probably riskier and not ideal but they would likely not perform the risky version on that intersection again. But FSD will be "seeing" that exact intersection for the first time...every time and likely making the rookie mistake because it's always seeing it for the first time. Tesla can't learn every unique intersection IMO, and I doubt it's poor performance would even get flagged as incorrect?
Am I missing something? How will Tesla learn the unique subtleties of the countless intersections across the world?
