Maybe first time in a Tesla also? He called it luxurious and it's just a Model 3 interior lol
has never seen a King Ranch/ High Country / Platinum ...
no self respecting truck person has. Those are only for the urban cowboys.
For me a truck is something to be beat around. No need for fancy stuff.
Has anyone ever seen a King Ranch/HighCountry/Platinum with mud on the tires either?
Yes, I also see them on construction sites.
The benefit about nice trucks is that you get all of the functionality with comfort and the ability to drive clients around in them.
A touchscreen brake controller (if it even has one), no door handles, awkward shaped bed that is difficult to reach over with no sail storage, rear screen, and carpet mats/flooring are not things delivered for "work trucks".
not to mention stalkless and shifting gears *on a touch screen* will be fun for truck guys doing truck work stuff in the winter time with thick work gloves on...
Ford oversized the door handles on the F series for the sole reason that with work gloves on you can still comfortably open them. That's the level of thought which goes into a work truck
Yeah, I see them all the time.
Are you implying that no self respecting sports car person would every be caught with a full interior and amenities?
Here come the excuses on why the CT has a Model 3 interior with the shifter on the screen smh
Come on folks, its obvious that the Cybertruck is not designed or priced as a work truck. There's nothing at all wrong with that but can we all stop pretending that it is and complaining about missing work truck features?
I see King Ranch Trucks with mud on them quite a bit. I have been in one that had a vinyl floor instead of carpet. I just don't see too many Platinum Trucks here where I live. I have never seen a Platinum Truck caked in Mud. I have seen Lariat and King Ranch Trucks caked in Mud though. You can get the luxury Trucks with single rear wheels or duals. You can get luxury Trucks with or without Beds on them. I prefer the Lariat. For me it is the perfect mix of some luxury and work utility. As you go up in luxury you go down in payload capacity.

I suspect Colin Chapman would say that. I also know a lot of Porsche fanatics that laugh at the idea of a Cayenne or Panamera. Same goes with a sports car with an automatic transmission. So I'd say yes, very likely. Those things are for the wanabees or the "secretary cars".
The CT is not priced. at all. yet.
Work truck does not always mean the cheapest truck. I think work truck is often conflated with fleet truck. Then I would agree that CT is unlikely to be a popular fleet truck for many reasons for many years ahead.
Good point, I did mean fleet truck and was not specific with my wording. The CT is not a good fit for either fleet or work trucks would be a better way to phrase my comment. As for your pricing comment, totally irrelevant. The original prices announced in 2019 are too much to make it a fleet truck candidate so final price is irrelevant as it will be over regardless.
I like how Tesla’s Social Media arm builds up the HYPE….. hilarious…
I get around to a lot of places including those. Those places are among those (especially TX) where I tend to see the prettiest ones with no scratches or mud. Its as if every accountant or salesman has to have a bigger, more luxurious 'rig' to show their importance.
I do, of course, think it wise for Tesla to provide products to appeal to that group. After all, they're the ones who will. pay $80K for a $40K Yukon if you spot weld a few pieces of sheet metal on it to dress it up in the style of an HMMWV (Hummer H2 versus the actual H1). Personally, however, I prefer a truck to be a truck. If I'm going out to the opera or symphony, I have a Model Y. I need my truck for hauling and getting dirty and my 2001 is long overdue for replacement.
They cool the castings outside. Note that they still have all the extra metal.
