You have been commenting on what āwork truckā features it has been claimed to have (by Elon). All imaginary at this point. And there are no dimensions of it yet. Thatās what much of the discussion has been about today.
What specific "work truck" features did I comment about in quoting Elon?
Iām not ālumpingā you in with anyone
Bed length. A 4.5' bed vs. a 6.5' bed would be a big deal to a tradesman. That would be self evident to people that use a truck for work. Interesting that I didn't say anything specific, yet it faciliated this cascade of responses, mostly apparently because of some pent up rage about someone else, and intimations of Tesla fanboy status.Iām not ālumpingā you in with anyone
You didnāt mention specifics (oddly enough). Nor did you even say specifically what it was about the CT that would make it a good work truck (also odd). My comment was that you seem to be under the impression the ādemoā trucks have those secret features you are looking for, despite no dimensions or features having been officially announced. A point more than one person has tried to get across to you.
You do you man
Actually I didnāt imply any of those things about you. This started with you saying the CT would be a good work truck. Then you were asked to provide guidance as to where those official āwork truckā specs could be found. You posted a sarcastic link to search results that failed to answer the question. Several more attempts to get that info from you also resulted in failure.
Maybe comprehension isn't your strong suit. I've stated on several occasions that my assessment as to bed length and ultimate storage capacity was based on the truck being produced in some similar capacity and scale as to it's demo/prototype. I realize that the request of "official" dimensions is a great "gotcha" for the folks in response to my statement so let's be sure to applaud that for the internet hall of fame.Actually I didnāt imply any of those things about you.

The rest was me trying to caution you against believing what you think you might know about the CTās āwork truckā credentials. Based on ādemo trucksā
When all you have left are straw man fallacies about what you think my mood is, youāve reached the end of the road. You sleep tight!
Aww. There you go again with the personal insults. The thing about comprehension is that itās also dependent on the person youāre interacting with being comprehensible. The only reason you are being pressed on your comments at all is because you are stating them as facts like this:
Someone with your obvious level of genius and āwork truckā expertise would never make such a statement without actually knowing it to be true, so you were asked to back that up with any sort of proof at all. All you could manage was a sad set of search results that still didnāt even support your comments.
It didnāt get any better after that. When pressed further on what makes the CT a clear winner in the āwork truckā category, you backed off of the āno comparisonā stuff and said you were basing it on the ādimensionsā of the demo trucks. Thatās great except we donāt know the dimensions of the demo trucks do we? Now you admit you were basing that on āunstated estimationsā
No $hit!

I could see that was going nowhere so I asked the same question in a different way and after several more wasted posts you finally said that bed length and a price under $90k (both things we donāt know anything about) was your benchmark. Nice work! For the first time all of your posts you actually said what you meant and answered a question. Hereās your medal
Now, after more ad hominem personal attacks and unrelated whining you also add āinterior spaceā and āchargingā to your list. What a breakthrough! It doesnāt really matter that we also donāt know anything about either of those things, although itās safe to say the charging will not be an issue because of their established network.
It was painful to get here, but after all of this you have finally said (in so many words) what you could have simply said in the beginning: āI donāt have any evidence to back this up but here is why I think the CT MIGHT be a good work truckā. Or āIF the CT includes the following things I think it would be a capable work truckā
I am so proud of you right now. Even though you still canāt admit there is little to no evidence to support your original claim that the CT is a better work truck āno comparisonā, you are learning to communicate. Now if you could figure out how to just say that in 1 post instead 10 and leave out the unnecessary personal attacks, you will really be onto something. And if you accomplish that we can work on the problem of ācomparisonsā and why it doesnāt work to make declarative statements about trucks you donāt have anything but random videos to compare to.
- 6.5ā bed (unknown)
- Price under $90k (unknown)
- Charging
- Interior space (unknown)
You take care of yourself
Let's not judge sin so harshly though...
Where is the personal insult here? This? Is it really an insult if you continue to ask the same question as to what my rationale for an otherwise benign statement was?
So...the gotchas for my post/position are that:
Constantly whining about āgotchasā is something people who say confusing or silly things on a regular basis do to change the subject when they get called out on it. You are simply trying to make the discussion about me and my opinions on Musk instead of revising your original comments or admit you actually have no information to back up your claims that the CT would be a superior work truck āno comparisonā.
Guess we will see when he builds it...if they build it. I never mentioned Elon until you went on a couple of rips about him. You're right though...I have no information from Tesla...officially confirming the bed size. Given the iterrations and modifications that were talked about by Tesla, I was just figuring they weren't going to reduce the bed size by 40%. Anything is possible though. He is a bit of a wildcard.
