Tesla said the range will be >300 miles. They also said the cost is undetermined. They still don't even know the weight as this is a concept vehicle. I would say less than 5% chance of this being out in 2028. I would bet on 2030, if ever.

Washers are already on the RT along with Starlink.

This is BS. I have almost 70k highway miles and a rock hasn't even touched my windshield. The design of the CT helps with that. There was a thread of people talking about this. It's not anecdotal, rocks just fly right over the windshield. The follow distance is set by FSD. Speed, conditions...

If you only plan to own your vehicle for 4-5 years, buying may be silly. I think Tesla is likely to lower the cost to get adoption (they need 10 million subscribers by 2035 and are currently sitting at 1.1 million FSD subscriptions (330k month to month, 770,000 purchases).

Elon gave a vague answer on this. He said Consumers (us) currently have FSD and as it progresses they will remove attention monitoring in response to when UFSD is coming to everyone. Basically, there's no time frame. Since then many of speculated that completely unsupervised (no one in the...

There is a YT video where DirtyTesla did this. It picks most up, but not all.

It's a dumb tick tok thing that people started when Teslas were first getting popular. I believe the original said it was bad luck to charge without tapping 3 times. It does nothing good.

I disagree. 52% of revenue was from US credits/rebates last year. They won't get them this year. Tesla will increase their $20b spending to ramp RT and Optimus. Spending 30-50b on a chip fab would hinder the rest of the plans without taking on massive debt. I think it's more corporate...

It was actually voted down by Tesla bylaws. No vote= no, but it was an investor vote, not a board recommended vote, so it was ignored. Also, almost 0 chance in terafab. It would be more of a failure than Dojo. Chip fabs are insanely expensive and fail often. Look at the Intel failure. Most...

Same.

Same. 14.1.7 was still the best for speed profiles. They were a little better in 14.2.2.3, but back to bad in 14.2.2.4. My truck wanted to go 38 in a 45 on Mad Max...had to keep hitting the pedal.

Bug fix doesn't send anything to Tesla. it just tags it for service to see if you open a service request.

You obviously don't pay attention to the earnings meetings or Elon. They may eventually sell Cybercabs, but it's not occurring soon. Also, Tesla is only legally allowed to make 2,500 Cybercabs per year until the laws change.

The S&X had a higher gross margin per car than the 3/Y. Sales company wide have been down 3 years in a row and the S/X were the biggest losers. There was no cliff on the S/X from the tax credit as it didn't apply to almost all S/X sales (LR MX was eligible with no options). Now if they were...

How would this have anything to do with the tax credit, which most of the S/X never qualified for? The S/X were the highest margin vehicles in Tesla fleet. This is about almost non-existent sales and wanting to utilize the factory floor and workers efficiently.
