Good eye (maybe). It would make a good announcement.

Tesla Cybertruck May Come In Two Sizes, Be Revealed In March

Known TSLA Bull says one will be the size we expect it to be, while the other will be around 15 - 20 percent smaller and both will have significant changes.

Yeah, I could see them marketing, and making tons of money off of a smaller scaled CyBeRtRuCk. Fewer resources needed to produce the batteries, lower price to make it more marketable, and arguably more practical for CyBeRtRuCk buyers who aren't "traditional" truck customers.

I imagine they don't care. Their "fans" want them no matter what. I just wonder how easy that is to fix if this new material is so tough.

Since I have reservations for both, right now what I really care about is when?

But seeing the final version of the Cybertruck, I am like Homer Simpson drooling, um.... my Cybertruck!

The market was not so impressed. Tesla stock promptly drop 2.12%.

Oh well, there is always next year (as Elon promised and I accept his apology for the delay).

Meanwhile, Ford is killing me softly with... estimated this spring... then new email, new estimate this summer...

that one they are standing in front of looks like the size of the Ranger, eh maybe a bit bigger but 2-3 years later and just another "here's the same thing from before!"?

Have you converted your Lightning reservation to an order yet?

Exactly. It doesn't look to be the size of a half-ton pickup, which is what the original CyBeRtRuCk looked to be. And that likely means those backseats will have even less headroom given that ridiculous slanting roofline.

wow 315s on that. Ok. I also feel like for the size/weight of this vehicle, those breaks aren't big enough though I guess you factor in regen braking. However it seems a lot are warning about the Hummer EV's stopping capability.

No, all my emails are coming from Ford, not from the dealer.

I don't even know if they've put in my Lariat configuration in their system.
