Whether or not they are worth anything in the real world is still under evaluation.

I can't imagine why someone would want to do that unless as an absolute last resort. A Tesla Model 3 can take up to 3 full days to charge on level 1 charging, and a Cybertruck has a much larger battery. So probably close to 100 hours of charge time. A generator that can support level 1 charging (at least 2kw continous) burns about 1/4 gallon an hour. 25 gallons of gas to travel 100 miles (takes about 1kw/hr per mile to move an RV down the road at highway speed) equals four miles per gallon. Not exactly great fuel economy. :)

May not have the range but the CT should easily out pull your super duty.

For Tesla Fanboys I guess. I'll believe it when:
They actually shows up on the streets in large numbers
It's been around for a year at least
Independent reviewers get a good look at it when used for long distance camping pulling a 15,000 pound camper over Utah Hwy 12 between Escalante and Torrey
There are zero reports of spontaneous ignition

Musk has erected from Tesla you know

Let me guess, when Elon said that he’ll produce a full electric vehicle, you are the first to say it can’t be done.

And when he said, that Tesla could drive from coast to coast, you said it’s impossible.

Then when countries in Europe said that it will be zero tailpipe for them come 2035, you ran to the hills screaming, we are all doomed! lol

Its great they are already updating and changing. Maybe one day it will go into production.

Can’t get one upped by Reisender, eh Sam?

That's why I love Tesla. It's in constant improvement and innovation -- and they install it on their units even if already sold.

Thanks for the information Yosemite Sam1.

I love the idea of a solar powered RV with the ability to drive itself. I do hate how the cyber truck looks.

Battery capacity is 100 KWH. Assuming 80% efficiency it would take about 60 hours to recharge with a 2000 watt (continuous) generator.

My next vehicle (if there is one) will be a Bev of some kind, and quite possibly a demo, or a trade in from someone else.

Meanwhile, the Rivian is real! Just like I said years ago
