I’m near 450,000th on the line. I won’t expect my CT til 2025. OK. Now will Tesla honor the original pricing? That’s the question.

One of the main reasons for putting a deposit down on this truck, and to me it IS a truck, nothing more, is that it's skin is chip proof, durable and needs only washing. Applied films look great for a little while but are susceptible to scratching, and wear from ordinary use. I doubt with...

Cost was a major factor in my wanting a single motor. The low cost, the size of the truck and the affordable entry port in getting into a Tesla for $40,000 was my impetus. Understanding that a single motor is trouble in snow and ice reminds me that most commercial vehicles are RWD as are vans...

Are you kidding me? If this silly virus is still around by the time these CT's hit the streets, there won't be anyone left to drive them.

Looks fine. But keep the stainless steel which is one of the reasons I like the CT. The durability and low maintenance of the stainless over paint (which Tesla has had issues with) is a plus. I figured that rear view mirrors, legal headlights and other accouterments would have to be made to...

I drive for a living, a little over 30,000 miles annually. I want an efficient and reliable work vehicle that's durable, tough and can slog through mud at a job site, take muddy boots (with Weathertech floor mats) and haul tools, samples, and gear constantly. Has to be versatile in both...

I offered to get a CT for sone in field beta testing. So far, no reply.

I ordered a single motor and live up north. A gamble certainly but with other 2WD vehicles up here, I’ll take the risk. Besides, the RWD CT will have traction control. And I can alter the order I think once Tesla actually gets around to building the damned things. That and there may be...

Well if it takes Tesla four to six years to make my single motor base truck, at least I’ll have a fighting chance that the bugs will be all ironed out of the CT. Problem is will I need if in that far in they future?

450,000th on a very long line it seems with start of production still a year or more off. Not holding my breath.

Not surprised. However this may be an issue to Tesla having launched the CT to tumultuous success in initial feedback and hundreds of thousands of reservations netting millions of dollars, how many will decline these reservations once they know there’s a realistically three plus year wait...

I am not expecting to see my CT (near the bottom of the reservation list) for at least 5 years. I just hope Tesla will honor the pricing I reserved my CT at. Five years, inflation, and whatever will create an odd financial situation for Musk trying to make products with 5 or more year old...

I did the math for my reservation, and at 50,000 units a year, I won't see my CT for eight or more years. I wonder if our pricing will remain as it was when ordered.

If Tesla makes 50,000 units as promised annually, then my order will be ready in 8.7 years. Joy.

This was taken within the Tesla Design facility. I suspect it was taken by Tesla employees.
