Tesla deletes cheap Cybertruck from its website
- Thread starter hridge2020
- Start date
After it's released, you find it provides sufficient functionality and value, you can't get a Cybertruck, or it doesn't have sufficient functionality and value, and you need a new pick-up,

With all the great reviews of the RT1 I am certainly considering Rivian, especially if Tesla increases the price of Cybertruck

Ford aims to produce 15,000 units of the F-150 Lightning in 2022, a total of 55,000 in 2023 and 80,000 in 2024.
There are already 130,000 reservations. Good luck with that.

What makes you think that the "cheap" version won't be sold? Are you just spreading Fox news lies?

In it's prospectus, Rivian said it won't be able to deliver all it pre-orders for a few years. You may have quite a wait.

Still waiting for my roadster and many truckers waiting on the semi
See the history here? It’s not new news with the company if you’ve been around.

The engineering for the Semi is complete. There's a global chip shortage and limited quantities of the 4680, which was hardly foreseeable in 2017.

Neither F-150 or Rivian R1T for me (R1S would be a different story). I ordered a CT because it's the coolest thing on the planet, automotively-speaking (or will be), not because I need a truck. Right now, my Model Y suits my needs perfectly.
I'm late to this party, but the reason it's important not to misuse the word hyperinflation is that it only happens when a country's economy collapses to the point that nobody wants to accept its currency. My purpose for mansplaining this isn't to give you a hard time, it's that I'm in America, where there's a lot of nasty and extremely dangerous propaganda going around. It's intended to convince people we need to end our democracy in part because of the economy, to put it bluntly.
There is some inflation around the world at the moment, and even serious economists (as opposed to ideological ones) are having a hard time explaining it completely. Covid is at the center of it, of course, but it's more complicated and far-ranging than just the supply chain.
Meanwhile, the thing to understand about Cybertruck prices is that they were announced before the current wave of inflation. Inflation hasn't hit everything yet, but one thing it has hit hard is cars.
By the way, prices were actually *too* stable for many years. (Some inflation is good, because it encourages people to invest their money before it loses value, rather than sitting on it and hurting the economy.)
Also, I want my 2004 BMW X5 to last a long time - and now that we have a Model 3, it'll last longer than it would have done (since I'm driving it a lot less).
But when it goes, I hope I can afford a Cybertruck. That thing seems ideal for me - it carries passengers, it's big enough to transport big things in the back, and it promises to drive like a Tesla (which is amazing).
