    For the cybertruck? The design of the others are mostly reasonable, I would assume every replacement part for the cybertruck is much more expensive since it’s so fucking ridiculous. I’ve never had to replace a windshield fortunately so I don’t know how much they normally cost.

      ‘mostly reasonable’ they integrate into the roof glass and their shape makes them 10x the price of a new windshield

      I can get a replacement for a 2010 Ford for about 200$

        You might have misread, nothing about the cybertruck is reasonable, the other models are mostly reasonable. $200? Good to know.

            Ah ok, maybe I’m misreading then. Are you saying the roof glass for the other models is very expensive? The windshield on the other models seems pretty generic.

              Yes, the design in the model X, Y, and S are all unnecessarily fancy and expensive, coupled with slow production and supply chains.

              The cyber truck is just taking those problems and exacerbating them
