It's worth at least $40K to the right buyer, who values FSD. Low kms also help. Free connectivity is just a bonus. I'd say list it at $39.9K and see how it goes.

No way they will be able to sell 250K of the Cybertrucks if the prices aren't reasonable. The prices will be on par, if not less, than the Ford F-150 Lightning. So $90'ishK for the highest trim and $60'ishK for the lowest trim.

To me, it doesn't matter as I'll be buying the highest trim with the longest range possible. Also have FSD selected and hoping that they honour the locked-in price. Getting very excited!

If you can't beat them (or get them to fix this issue), then join them. LOL. No reason why you also can't buy TSLA stock right now, but note that there is no guarantee on what it will do over the next 10 years. I suspect it will at least 10x and likely 20x by 2032 but that's not a guarantee...

Wait until next spring/summer and you'll notice that some of your miles magically come back. I've had several Teslas now and my range drops in winter and then gets back up in summer. LOL. I wouldn't be too worried. As you said, that's what the warranty is for.

I think you're reaching here a bit: the evidence you're portraying shows the car is sitting for months at a time. Which is vastly different than being used daily. Let me provide you with an example: I used to have a gas lawnmower which we used from May to September. After September, it'd be...

I'm the same. But then I look at my TSLA holding (which directly paid for all 4 Teslas) and I'm like, it's fine. The company is doing really well and TSLA stock is so undervalued right now that it's comical. Tesla, please fix this vibration issue. But even if you don't, please continue to...

One last thing: you're showing a graph that says average storage in MONTHS. I drive every day (pretty much) so we are not talking the same thing here. For 99% of the folks, they drive several times a day on average. So your post is only applicable to those that are storing and in that case...

OK, we all agree. No one is disagreeing. But you have failed to demonstrate how much extra will the battery degrade if one is charging at 90% daily. Is it an extra 5% over 5 years? Is it an extra 10% over 10 years? You don't know the answer to that because there are too many variables at...

I've now owned 4 Teslas and my own experience with Tesla says different to what you just wrote above. Both my 3 LR AWD and Y Performance lost about 7% in the first year, then they tapered off. My used S P100D had no battery degradation for the duration that I owned it (20K miles) at 8% battery...

Research may indicate that low SoC is better for battery in terms of capacity loss but Tesla's own battery loss is not as severe as other batteries thanks to their Battery Management System/Software. As I said earlier and will repeat: it does not matter at what % you charge at as long as it...

I wonder if Tesla made any changes since the 2015 model year to rectify said moisture issues? Let's hope so and let's find it out together. I have faith that the battery itself will easily outlast my car ('21 Plaid). But I plan on selling mine once the Cybrertruck arrives LOL.

Yup. Anecdotally, you and I both could've just had a slightly "better" battery too. Too many variables here. Point is to charge it every night to whatever % you feel right (b/w 70% to 90%) and try to not go down to less than 10%. Supercharge infrequently or when you're on trips. Do NOT...

I had the Michelin CC2 in my Model Y Performance. No issues running them all year around.

I get that we're all trying to maximize our battery shelf life, but studies performed by the owner of the Tesla "Stats" app said that it doesn't matter at what % you charge to, as long as you're not charging beyond 90% and dropping the SoC to under 10%. Keep it plugged in at 70%, 80%, or 90%...
