More terrible range estimates incoming.

Jalopnik is mostly just quoting stuff from another article that was quoting forum posts. So its basically hearsay at this point. Still, its further evidence that Cybertruck's range is utter crap (and these original posts seem legitimate, as they originate from pro-Tesla sites).

The closest Walmart is a similar distance in the other direction.

The "wholesale" here bulk buys from Costco and adds $1-10 to the price tags depending on the item. At $80 per tank of gas, it's very easy to justify the trip.

Now you are just being obtuse.

As I mentioned earlier, driving that far for groceries and supplies in general - not just Costco, but the pet store, import store, hardware store, etc is comparatively cheap enough to justify the drive.

Again, my dog food alone pays for the gas unfortunately.
