There are some political ones that will get me censored, but you get the idea.
 
I expect itll be lower than todays closing when the truck is release. Ive held the stock since $195 so im not mad but lets be real its overvalued and we’re heading into a recession
you being pessimistic but I'm realist-with 2 new factories running, EVs being the future I'm bullish-been holding since $34/share.
 
It'll be interesting to see what the interior looks like. I really like the specs of the truck, but to TM3's point, the Rivian and Ford EV trucks are pretty nice inside and out. So, Tesla will need to up its game on the interior. They don't need to add a bunch of buttons, but it can't be featureless either. As for pricing, I don't think that Tesla even knows itself, and will most likely hold that to itself until the last moment. There are too many unknowns, a year + away from building the truck, for them to announce a price in advance. They've seen Rivian's blowback, and they'll need to avoid a repeat.

I will agree that the Rivian interior looks nice but the Ford Lightning is literally just an old Ford truck interior with a touch screen slapped in it. Tons of buttons and very outdated and ugly compared to Rivian and Tesla.

Thank you for this! Made me laugh. Something I would do if I was taking a poop and had some time to kill.

I'm expecting the release pricing to be above 100k, for SURE with FSD option, possibly even without.

Can't see how it would not be, assuming they stick to the quad-motor, long range. mX 320mile pack is $115. Hopefully in the long run the paint-free, mostly stamped stainless will be cheaper; initially it's got to cost a lot more (?)

Please Please Please, release asap.

Rivian interior looks GREAT but it's actually slightly smaller feeling than even a tacoma.

Source: I took delivery of mine, and have sold it.

I don't need fancy, just comfortable and durable.

The first thing I'll look at the the functionality. If it doesn't have a drivers instrument display or HUD, built-in navigation, and a Sirius XM receiver, then I'm out. The truck would be used like a truck, driven a lot of miles, and I'll be in places without a cell signal at least once week.

As far as cost, anything above $70-75k would be hard to justify on a TCO basis, given I can buy a very nice diesel for much less.

lol. seriously? You aren't going to find a new F250 or F350 Lariat with a diesel engine for under $70k. And the fuel to power it is well over $4 / gallon. Unless you tow a ton a Diesel is very expensive in purchase / fuel costs and maintenance....

Except I'm not looking at the F250 or 350. These are larger trucks than the Cybertruck, and they also have a far greater tow and payload capability. Therefore I don't think these are a valid comparison.
I'm looking at the Colorado/Canyon, Chevy Silverado, and the Jeep Gladiator. The highest MSRP in a well equipped diesel configuration for these listed is $60,000.
