I think I need a tin foil hat to continue this conversation.I'm sure there will be some CT's built, maybe thousands, if only to keep the pressure on the other OEMs. But enough to fill my order 50k reservations deep? Not counting on it. Plus you know how they treat early orders these days..
If the other OEMs drop the ball, and revisited the Bolt fiasco, Tesla can raise CT prices. If they succeed, Tesla can compete with a MY varient (Think Truckla)
My only point is for CT orders, better not count on the vehicle you ordered anytime soon based on that earnings call...
Bought my Model Y in February 2021 when they were still reasonably priced so I could enjoy an EV until I got my truck. So no fears on that end.
