Hey everyone, DennisCW here! If you're as obsessed with Tesla as I am, you've probably been waiting for this moment. We've finally got what seems to be the first confirmed delivery of the rear-wheel drive (RWD) Tesla Cybertruck. I've scoured the internet, and this looks legit—complete with real photos of the cloth seats and all the decontented features compared to the all-wheel drive (AWD) version. Let's dive into the details, my thoughts on whether it's worth it, and some essential Tesla accessories to make your ownership experience even better.
Thanks to a post from John Lewis in a Facebook group, we have our hands on images of this beast. It's rocking the tactical gray interior with cloth seats, and yep, it's the RWD long-range model. One standout feature is the unique headliner—it's more of a speed cloth fabric, different from what we've seen in the higher-end models. As expected, this version is stripped down to keep costs low. We're talking fewer features than the AWD, which has some folks joking (like in that Truth post) that if we keep removing things, we might finally hit that $40K-$50K price point.
John shared his initial impressions: "Having driven other Cybertrucks, I am finding the ride to be just as smooth and quiet in the rear-wheel drive long range." That's awesome to hear! It suggests that even without all-wheel drive, the Cybertruck maintains that signature Tesla smoothness and quietness.
With the $7,500 federal tax credit winding down, it makes total sense for buyers to jump on this now—especially if you're paying cash and there's no financing incentive in play. This could be a smart entry point for a lot of people looking to get into the Cybertruck game without breaking the bank.
So, what's my take? If you're eyeing a Cybertruck and don't need the extra power or features of the AWD, this RWD version could be a solid choice. It's potentially more affordable, and based on John's feedback, the driving experience holds up. That said, if you can snag a discounted AWD model, that might be the way to go for the added bells and whistles.
