There seems to be a concern by a lot of folks wrt length of the truck. It's the same size the best selling vehicle in the US (maybe beyond) in the F150. Given the F150 is so popular it would be some sort of reasonable benchmark, obviously design is radically different, on the size of a P/U. I don' know the rest of the dimensions we can compare it to the F150. I'm curious if it's bigger than the current Gen Raptor.
So the cyber truck is 19’4. Will that be reduced in size. I am hearing about a 3 percent reduction?. Is this true?Same as F150 ...
so it would be another vehicle to go against Range / Maverick
I am just curious if it Will see a reduction in size. Says it’s 19’4 in length. I am hearing about a 3 percent reduction in size?
I'm not sure when we will get some final specs but I look forward to it.
Do you think the price will go up or stay the same as listed on website?. I have heard about a price spike in steel.
I posed this question a while back in the thread. The general consensus was that the preorder price would be honored. if there’s a price increase you’d probably absorb if you reconfigure your order.

No, on 5/23/21, Elon later twitted: Reviewed design with Franz last night. Even 3% smaller is too small. Will be pretty much this size. We’ll probably do a smaller, tight world truck at some point.
CT is too big -am gonna wait for mid size CT-like the size of Honda Ridgeline.
That post was actually made in 2020.
On 5/23/21. The things I am reading more recently are saying they decided to make a few modifications to make it smaller. Has anyone heard anything recently on the reconfiguration?
If I did not reserve it do you think the price will go up or will they honor the price they have on there website?.Without any modifications of course.
I believe you pay the price listed at the time of order. If you were to order today you will pay that price when delivered. If you order after a price increase you will pay the increased price when delivered.

Only thing I saw was this article in Inside EVs dated Feb 11 2021 where Elon Musk said the truck would be a little smaller on the Joe Rogan podcast
Elon Musk Talks Tesla Cybertruck Size, Updated Design With Joe Rogan
Elon Musk spills news about the Cybertruck on the Joe Rogan Experience and explains the truck's updated size.
insideevs.com
"“That’s pretty much what it [the Cybertruck] will look like, with very small differences. You know, we adjusted the size a few percent. Like around 3% or smaller. You don’t want it to be a couple of inches too big for the tunnel,” said Musk.
Interestingly, last year Musk said 3 percent would be too small, guess he had a change of heart.
But just the other day July 2nd Musk tweeted :
"Friday afternoons are usually tesla deign studio time.
Cybertruck will be almost exactly what ws shown. We're adding rear wheel steering, so it can do tight turns & maneuver with high agility.
Lot of great things coming"
So is it smaller? I wish they would release some final specs. Truck is supposedly to be delivered to some this year and we are already in month 7

The Ct won’t be delivered this year. Look for it in 2023 if they can complete it and obtain all the approvals.Only thing I saw was this article in Inside EVs dated Feb 11 2021 where Elon Musk said the truck would be a little smaller on the Joe Rogan podcast
