Looks scammy in many ways:
- No identifier beyond "Nathan from Tesla"
- Reverse lookup on number shows nothing related to Tesla
- Second sentence is stereotypical yet uncommon English
- Did you order in February?
- "no touch test drive" seems non-sequitur
- "customer's" is bad grammar in context (expect perfect marketing verbiage)
- "how driving an electric vehicle feels" seems odd phrasing in context
- "car": no, it's a TRUCK and Tesla would emphasize it.
- Just generally not content I'd expect from Tesla, given they have a solid test-drive program in place.

Someone suitably adventurous could have fun texting back, observe wording of responses and how quick it turns into "text info for a $1000 deposit".
I didn't put much stock into the response from this person. First thing that I noticed was them saying that I ordered in Feb, which is incorrect. The alarming part to me, was how'd they get my number and know that placed an order in the first place.

I'm not sure if this is the thread for it but is there any truth to there being a delay with the cybertruck? I have an order in and planned for late 2021. I saw somewhere it was delayed to 2022/2023. It could have been clickbait but I forget where I saw it.

I ordered mine after the event ended. I thought it would be my first Tesla, but picked up a new S a couple of weeks ago. Just couldn't wait.

The clip going around with Jay Leno is interesting as Elon will be making the truck 5% smaller all around to fit in a normal garage. But what is a normal garage in North America is still be seen
According to Electrek, that video was taken before Elon stated 3%, so since 3% is the more recent number, i'd go with that. Either way, I don't care, my garage is 24' long and can easily fit a 6.5 bed and crew cabThe clip going around with Jay Leno is interesting as Elon will be making the truck 5% smaller all around to fit in a normal garage.

Reviewed design with Franz last night. Even 3% smaller is too small. Will be pretty much this size. We’ll probably do a smaller, tight world truck at some point.

I placed a reservation for a Cybertruck Dual Motor, with FSD. So excited even though I know it's a few years wait. It will be my first EV, and Tesla.
