After years of waiting, the Tesla Cybertruck is here. The trucks are finally rolling of the production floor and into the garages of the people that made their reservations when it was first unveiled, assuming they still wanted it.
It occurs to us that despite the long wait, people are still intrigued by the unusual utility vehicle and new excitement is brewing. In this episode, Brent wanted to dig into the specifics of the three models that are or will become available as orders are filled. He also wanted to discuss how ordering a vehicle without a test drive works and about what one should be concerned.
All-in-all, we think the Cybertruck is going to breathe new life into the EV conversation that has been dwindling with manufacturer cutbacks, higher interest rates, and a country/world that seems to get more politically divided each day, where electric vehicles have become associated with a hot-button dogwhistle to both sides.

Ben!
Just wanted to say I look forward to every podcast you publish. I know you take personal time out of your day to publish these and I appreciate it! I find them entertaining and informative.
I appreciate your perspective as i am an EE as well.
I used to live in Nashville and I love the culture I hear in the conversation.
I commute 30 miles from the edge of Phoenix to the middle of nowhere.
I work at a bev/fcev truck maker. I really do find this time in the automotive history to be fascinating!
I’ll own an ev when the time is right!
Anthony, thanks for the comment and listening. Yeah it’s cool and exciting (every once in a while frustrating). I love the technology and can’t wait to see where it goes.
I’ve never been to Phoenix, but I have seen parts of the southwest. Beautiful place. Stay safe and have a Merry Christmas.
