Apologies if this has been said, but a couple of points about the cybertruck- at a base of just under $40k, it will be the cheapest available. The reason for the cheap price? Assembly uses no stamping presses or paint booths- the body is laser cut and folded, the stainless alloy being to hard to stamp..
Agree. Or it could be Tesla's loss-leader for a smooth entry into the truck-pick up segment.
For those who would get limited use out of a truck the Cybertruck has huge functionality. Short of pulling a fifth wheel it literally shames the standard pickup half ton. We are sedan / hatchback people. But the Cybertruck is appealing to us. The wife would love one.
The only aspect it falls short on IMO is towing range, if real world towing range mirrors that of the Model X. Driving for 90 minutes and then charging for 45 minutes won't appeal to most RVers. But as battery tech and charging infrastructure improve those issues will sort themselves out.
