I placed reservations for both the CT and the R1T and took delivery of the R1T this summer. The R1T is an amazing truck, not without its early startup glitches, but still an amazing truck. The only serious flaw so far, is the charging network. If Elon opens up his charging network to non-Tesla’s I may just stick with the R1T and drop the CT.
of course we will but we will all be too old to drive it by then
Elon said the price would go up 10 to 15 grand. That means 20. The dual was first advertised at $49,000. So, 49+20=69 thousand. If they make the Dual available, it will qualify. At least based on price.
Do you have a link to Elon saying the prices will go up 10-15k? Everything I've heard, read was just a general increase without a specific amount.
No. It's either somewhere in the Twitter Universe or he said it in some recent interview. Best shot will be to check all his tweets over the last 3 weeks.
If they make the Dual Motor with LFP batteries (last forever) and it gets under the 80K threshold, would that sway you?
I have no intention of rewatching every video I've watched over the last few weeks.
Because he didn't say it. He gave a general statement that there would be an increase, but never specified an amount. Certainly not "10-15k".
So you think it could be something small like say $3or $5k? You’re really dreaming. Pretty sure Elon would not even have mentioned a price increase if it was going to be a something small. He was prepping us for some degree of sticker shock. I believe the market and supply price increases alone will make a $10-$15k increase. But we’ll have to wait until they finally get around to releasing both final specs and pricing.
I never said it would be small or big, just that neither Elon nor Tesla has made any specific statement beyond there will be an increase.
