Model 3 Pricing Changes and a Flurry of Tesla Pickup Promises Precede … What?

That’s the question being asked by a bevy of cynical journalists and industry observers after Tesla CEO Elon Musk regailed his Twitter audience with descriptions of the automaker’s upcoming pickup truck last night. How does a heavy-duty 240-volt power outlet sound? Self-levelling suspension? Hmm?

At the same time, Tesla’s Design Studio announced revised pricing for the dual-motor Model 3 and its Performance variant. Remaining Model 3 reservation holders were also told they would soon get the opportunity to configure their long-awaited vehicles.

Either the big tent’s working out just great and production is well on track, or there’s something investor-rattling coming down the pipe.

Rover Sig Market placement: One good (large) car, one good (mid-sized) SUV, plus the Escalade (because).Attention to detail. I see nice looking caddies with some ugly features (wheels, trim). I don't know about interiors because no one I know has a caddie.The world does not need another BMW. Not everybody is in sales. Cadillac could be selling cars to all of us Boomers, who remember the large Oldsmobiles, Buicks, Mercuries, etc., of yesteryear and their comfort and, yes, style of a sort.
Tassos Back in my day, Nissans were the choice for forward-thinking, progressive folks who appreciated quality and innovation. But now? Seems like they're just for those who can't afford better. It's a shame to see a brand with such promise become the go-to for the budget-conscious (POORS!) crowd. Makes you wonder what happened to standards and aspirations. Guess you can't expect much from a generation that thinks a Nissan is a status symbol.
MaintenanceCosts The 2024 Lincoln Nautilus is actually doing what Cadillac ought to do to the XT5. Giant wraparound screen, very showy interior with fancy materials, new emphasis on quiet.
Tassos You know, back when cars were built to last, we didn't have all this fuss about "new car smell" being toxic. It's just another liberal conspiracy to make us fear everything, including the scent of American ingenuity. If you ask me, it's all a ploy by Big Government to regulate every aspect of our lives, right down to the air we breathe in our own cars. Give me freedom over a fake fragrance any day!

Aja8888 I love my new car smell as it's better than smelling the refineries and chemical plants around me here in Houston.
