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

[EVDRVN]

Patience, price will be lower by the time your number comes up!

Not so sure, with all the price cancellations my order should be bumped to Q1 vs Q4 and I doubt there will be much change. That increase passed the threshold for many at $30K.

I don't have a problem with the pricing as we all know Tesla can and will lower them in the future. And as an investor we need the margins.

What I do have a problem with is a 340mi max range. For comparison, you can get a Rivian dual-motor with 410mi range for $94k or 352 range for $84k. $80k for a 340mi range Cybertruck is just not super compelling, especially for a company that should be such a dominant tech leader in the EV world.

We don't necessarily need the 500 miles we were promised, but we do need something that shows Tesla is still the leader in the field. We did not see that today.

What we saw was the fastest, safest, most advanced truck with an unsurpassed charging network to back it up.

Maybe you saw somthing different?

He/She prob saw something that was 'less compelling' than the (ugly IMO) standard looking Rivian Truck.

Range anxiety has moved to a dark, back corner of my brain.

So, the Pre-frontal Catex?

Cheers to the fe-lions!

352 for $84k seems comparable to 340 for $80k. We need to learn more about the range extender. If it costs $15k to bring it to 440, that is comparable too.

Most advanced? Did they bring back sensors so it will auto park itself in a garage like a 2018 model 3? Or automatically parallel park or park in a Parking lot?

Looks like a great truck but feature wise teslas are getting less and less.

Bunch of whiners out there. I am super pumped. Amazing, one of a kind vehicle!

I still like the truck overall, but everyone knows that at this pricing it's extremely niche, likely lower than S/X levels, but I have full confidence that the price will drop in 18 or so months.

I do except reservations will reduce to under 300k just due to the pricing. 20k more decreases the buying pool by 70-80%

This is why they made us watch every single owner open that truck door, and made us all want to be that person. Repetition of wanting to open it and get inside will likely cause reservations to increase not decrease. Go ahead, imagine it again.

So Dual it is. RN112xxx - Thinking possibly Q1. The Extended Range could be pricey but will plan it in and hope it doubles as a PowerWall Extender as well.

So, if you can add an extended range pack in the back of the truck's bed... you can add 2 or 3 as well, right? Think about it.
750 mile range anyone?

Depends on the weight.

Why not add a self-healing coloured wrap on as well?
