A better contest would be to guess the date they open orders!
My guess? July-4-2026
That's a long wait to just open orders...(I gots kids to clothe and feed, and I can’t be held back by some truck-maker’s notion of “ordering dates”!).
July 4 would be rich symbolism though. As long as mine is delivered by Christmas, wrapped and ready?

I'm willing to wait on getting my order in until I find out more about pricing and motor they decide to use, etc. Will help me keep getting the cash together too. The later they push that date back the better, I suppose.

Ah yes…saving the cash for an unknown price tag. Reminds me of my engagement!

$20k is the killer price
If you dont think so look at China.
Never see it here in my lifetime though.

We don't have enough cheap/slave labor to compete, I'd think. So, won't see it.

Call Elon, we need robots that can work in the open, no factory needed, assembled for you in a Florida Heatwave, a Texas rainstorm, or even in a facility owned and operated by Beltway-Bandits.
