    I wonder if my FSD purchase will be utilized before I trade this car in for the cybertruck?

    How much do you notice the difference between the P and the SR+?

    There is a clear difference when i punch it. Having said that I am not punching the P at every chance. So technically i enjoy the SR+ more often when you think about it. Both bring a smile to my face every time I drive them. The SR+ is no slouch. I rear view mirror 90% of cars out there off the light with it. The P is for the occasional Porsche or modified Subaru. That covers the next 9%. The last 1% I leave to my S Ludi brethren. :)

    Heems,

    excellent! That’s about what I thought. These cars are so good.

    The trimotor CT would be ideal for performance and range but it’s slightly out of budget. If we have a 3rd kid I’d consider a dual motor to replace the Model 3 but there are a few things going against it.

    1. Wife thinks it’s ridiculous
    2. Won’t fit in our garage
    3. I love the speed of my performance model 3 so I’d really want the trimotor

    same here and probably trading in wife’s Excursion Max. She doesn’t appreciate the 3P and thinks it’s a jellybean and likes big trucks- ironically she digs the Tesla Truck. I tow a car hauler so that’s why I’m going with the 3 motor. If I could get the range with dual motor I’d go that direction. 0-60 in 2.9sec is cool, but I rarely use that in my 3.

    It’ll just take time. 2 years should be enough for it to grow on people

    They are just jealous. Don't let it get to you. Now you can laugh at them as the Cybertruck has over 700K reservations. Elon stated that the Cybertruck isn't for everyone so if they still don't like it, who cares.

    I'm in this EXACT same boat.I have a DM Cybertruck w/FSD on reservation; I'd love to trade the FSD for the bigger battery slated for the Tri-Motor.

    I’m keeping my Model 3. The two year plan is to convince the wife she’s selling her car to make watt for the Cyber. Shouldn’t be too hard a sell as she has a Nisan juke!
