Negative. I had one on order and there was a time I was genuinely excited. Since then I bought a second house in a somewhat remote area that I visit in the winter and I keep seeing videos of these things looking like a golf cart trying to get through the most pathetic of AWD conditions. Also I’m cheap and EVs tend to tank in value.

I think it would make a fun third or fourth vehicle.

No not really. When this was announced in 2019 or whatever it was advertised as a bulletproof steel sided truck with something like 500 miles of range, autonomous driving, 0-60 in 3 seconds for 75k. That was a hell of an offering.

When it landed it was like 115k for that spec and self driving isn’t where they projected it would be. Also I was under the assumption it wouldn’t be useless off road which it appears to be.

You’re honestly not happy with anything. Every post you make is dipped in condescension and angst.

There’s a place close to work where you can pick up a Tesla brand new so I see them all the time. They aren’t for me.

No love from me on this one. For me has to be one of the most visually unappealing things around.

That and it is a terrible truck. Also an awful vehicle overall.

I was somewhat interested but after seeing one in person decided it was a hard no. I figured I could maybe get past the looks, but it is way too big at 223" long compared to the 195" of my BMX iX. It would not fit in my garage and would be a nightmare to park.

It will never pass pedestrian safety regulations here.
I think there's sort of a cool factor but it wouldn't be my first choice of truck.

I pulled one out of a ditch with my F250 last night. It lost traction in a half inch of wet snow on a salted road. The owner was livid and probably would have given you his had you been there and asked for it.

Well looks like the OP was looking for some feedback from an owner and got BLASTED, o well.

I Agree with everyone here looks like a rusty dumpster on wheels(And is trash overall), I would rather have a nissan rogue convertible...

I’m curious to know what sort of real world range he’s getting on his ‘S’ in the winter time.

My wife is considering a Tesla.

Thanks

From my experience with his car, he gets about 580 km of range when charged to 100%. I've had my Model Y for some time, and I consistently get around 400 km of range in the winter. I currently use 20-inch rims without aero caps, whereas my dad uses the aero caps. Something I found interesting was we drove to Florida this year in the Model S. It was honestly easier than traveling in an ICE vehicle. All the charging stops were planned for us, and each supercharger station had some form of fast food available. It didn't take much longer when accounting for the breaks we would have normally taken.
