    What a disaster. No. I love my model 3 and have been ignoring texts from friends all day going after tesla for this move. Stop comparing this to an iPhone plus or the original imac. When something is fugly just call it fugly. Will be fascinated to see where this thing goes. I just can’t see actually making it to production in it’s current state.

    There will be design changes before production - eg where were the cameras (edit: just saw them in a different video)? And the front end is almost certainly not compliant with EU regs. And the load bay door needs some work, judging by the way the ATV driver nearly put his back out.

    With some changes it might keep me out of a Rivian, but either way the Model 3 stays. Still half-think it’s some kind of glorious meta-joke that Musk is playing on the industry/customers.

    Absolutely. It's the best car every made of you like to get out there. I only bought a 3 because it is electric and the supercharger network. This is 10x better.

    In order to have these "performance and price" it MUST look like this, period.

    That would be true IF, something like the Ridgeline didn't exist the day before.

    As a pilot I am insulted by your comment:). Airplanes have knobs and dials that determine if you live or die. Most of the ones in the RAM pickup could have been replaced with a little better design, as the Model 3 has shown.

    I was hoping the Cybertruck would be a replacement for my lifted Jeep Rubicon. Besides being too big for the trails I drive with the Jeep, it’s just plain ugly...though I love the drivetrain and rolled stainless steal concept. I really don’t see this as anything other than small player in the market....

    Hate pickups... never wanted to be near one... BUT...
    i'm low key obsessing over this one.
    Love the retro future looks... straight out of a popular mechanics rag from 74... like nothing else on the road.

    I think it looks incredible, but I've never been a truck person so I'm not programmed to feel they should look a certain way. By comparison, the Rivian looks boring and like more of the same to me. I'll be trading my 3 for the Cybertruck for sure.

    and more importantly you can get the RAM with real leather. Not sure why synthetic plastic seats off-gassing toxic fumes is en vogue these days. Marketing > common sense.

    Just ordered. Absolutely overwhelmed by Tesla’s Cybertruck. I’m thinking totally blacked out with chrome wheels. Keeping the 3.

    My 2018 model 3 will be ready for trade in/upgrade by the time Cybertruck is released.

    That is if the tesla robo taxi, money making machine hasn’t started...
