Surprised to see our good friends in Maui took delivery of their’s in July, they ordered it four years ago. Impressive interior and tech, thick body panels to deter door dings. It’s the “BEAST” edition so its tech load is quite impressive. 48” single wiper which is interesting to say the least. Interior blind spots are not as bad as I expected. 35” tires and it’s a three motor design. Acceleration is impressive at nearly 8,000 lbs and will stick you in the seat.
Exterior design……………..[emoji2371]
At work, I began the Cyber Truck challenge for fun. Up for grabs are two awards for the crew who is the first to get involved in a news worthy event. It’s all in good fun and made these via the 3D printer.
If I had the resources to afford one, answer is unequivocally “NO”. I would rather put that towards a Scale51 kit plane, way more street cred [emoji23]. I have been burned in the whole EV/hybrid vehicle situation by our 2015 Chevy Volt being held hostage at the Cheverolet dealer waiting for a warranty replacement in the battery. Has been sitting there since January 15th, 2024 with no indication of a return to service date. Drove my 95 GMC K1500 with 350K until it went down in April due to an unknown electrical issue [emoji2371]. Was forced into getting yet another commuter car and exactly did what I said I was not, however with no vehicle to drive I had to do something. Dealers just do not care and just tell consumers “not our problem, we cover parts n labor” all while smiling their best condescending grin. They have revamped the whole loaner car program due to the “parts supply chain” and refuse to supply a temp vehicle solution. Our 2015 Volt was a novelty in 15, nothing like what the market is today. And before the “nay sayers” begin chiming in, what I am saying is fact, we are currently living it.
So understandably….. I say “[emoji1589]” to EV’s now. Just imagine what’s going to happen when today’s EV’s batteries tank due to normal wear n tear in 10 years, and people are forced to wait nearly a year for a new battery? How in the known universe is this suppose to be “better” for the environment?
Jus sayin
Bottom Line:
If yur jonesin for a CT, and have the resources to obtain one, go for it. Just be sure to post your experiences. [emoji6]
