Tesla, TSLA & the Investment World: the Perpetual Investors' Roundtable

Mate, we need to have a quiet word. You're on the reservation list for what will be the coolest car of the 21st century and you're hesitating! Driving that car, you'll be Virgil Tracy, Steve Zodiac, and James Bond rolled into one. You'll be the coolest kid on the block, king of the hill, and as if that's not enough, you're a Tesla investor! If you're not good-looking, you will be, if you're a seven stone weakling, you'll be Charles Atlas, and if you're on the lookout for a new partner, they'll be queuing round the block for a ride!
Plenty of room for your walker (US English)/Zimmer frame (UK English).
 
They need to make an SUV/Van version of Cybertruck as well. Basically an electric G-Wagon, but better.
The base structure of the Cybertruck is not suited to be a van. Certainly not a delivery van. It is a stainless steel exoskeleton so it can carry 3000lbs of cargo and be a unibody. As a van, a full stainless body would be very heavy. And as an SUV, it would make little sense as well. They could make a van or SUV inspired by the angular look, but making it out of stainless like the cyber would make it much heavier than needed for it's purpose. Of course anything is lighter than the Hummer EV, so maybe nothing matters

Right now Elon is about filling the biggest markets and offsetting the most carbon. The cybertruck does that. The Semi does that. And those two new models will take up ALL of the battery supply Tesla can muster all the way until 2025. And the new global compact car and energy really have supply tied up for even longer. We simply need EVEN MORE BATTERIES to consider any other models.

I suppose it's ok to let Rivian sell all the low margin delivery vans they can in the meantime.
 
Just put the wiper on, Elon. I will modify.
