They're not really known for their pro-carry stances so I don't think it's likely.
Uh... not sure where you hang out but I was just at a Tesla Lightshow event in Orlando (with my Rivian) and after we all went to food trucks and they were basically talking about what they were carrying and where.... while gushing over Lord Elon.

As for the original question... whenever Lord Elon feels like it. Back in fall of 2021 folks were gushing over the fact that Tesla was going to open up Superchargers to non-Teslas... only happened in Europe and only select sites.

Have you missed the news? New recruits to Tesla tend to be right-wing now thanks to gallant leader's views.

Also extension cord might not suppport 250KW and upwards of charging speeds unless they have cooling system.

Unless enough Tesla folks get super chapped about it an Tesla backs off on allowing us to charge on their stations.
Nah, the model is making money on more people charging. They will figure out a solution, pretty sure something is in the works.

No updates, no need to ask. When info is available in regards to how this looks and works, the forum will be talking all about it a lot. It's easily the biggest thing to happen to the MME since release.
Wrong. The remote frunk release was the biggest thing to happen to the Mustang Mach E since its release ?

I have seen the the uptime of tesla superchargers and its unbeatable. But does anyone reckon if they provide consistent high speeds for charging?

I had a discussion on X about it, and the Tesla faithful were pretty much “no worries, go for it. We can’t transition away from gas if we don’t get this charging situation worked out.”

They are much happier about NACS winning out over CCS than they are worried about us taking up two slots.

For the record, my local Supercharger has a pull-through space where I can simply approach it from the other direction and the cable is right there. I’m told most newer Superchargers have one of these for those towing trailers.

I have a grizzle charger at home that I use most of the time. But, will definetly use tesla superchargers once the system is put in place. Just curious as all supercharging locations are of a bit different layout and it would be tough work to put Mach-E close enough to reach short cables.

I bet a good percentage of Cybertruck owners will be carrying. Just a feeling...

The Lightning has a space for a gun safe in the armrest and the back seat locks down over a system that provides locking long gun storage.

I haven't seen comparable options in the CyberWedgie.
