I’ve been with a cybertruck reservation since thanksgiving 2019 for the mid level dual motor. Initially thought it’d be cool at the 50K-ish price tag. But with it going to be 80-90k configured/ delivered I don’t think it’ll be worth it. Plus with my luck my reservation will get pulled at the same time my 2024R shows up

That would put it in the same price due to inflation as a base base trim F150 I still don’t understand how people ever thought that it would be in that price range. That’s four years ago excluding inflation during the Biden administration.

Oh I understand the inflation/ post Covid pricing… sadly my wages haven’t moved up anywhere close to being able to have the same standard of living. So a 10k ish bump in the price I would have expected, but not a $30k / 60% price increase.

Do you still have to warm up batteries, lowering suspension and other stuff to get maximum performance out of Tesla's? You'll be long gone ...

It's not as easy as putting it into 4WD before you come to the stoplight you plan to race from.
