Remember those million pre-orders Tesla allegedly had for the Cybertruck, according to CEO Elon Musk? It’s getting tougher and tougher for the company to explain where all of them went.
After putting around 50,000 Cybertrucks on the road, according to a recent recall filing, the company appears to be out of pre-orders and desperately looking to juice demand. Case in point: It’s now offering up to $10,000 off certain Cybertrucks it has in inventory.
musk inflates numbers to match his ego.
many, many, people canceled their preorder when they discovered he’s a fucking asshole.
several orders of magnitude more got tired of waiting and canceled because it too long to come out (also the base price went up by 20k,)
It turns out to be one of the least reliable, worst made cars on the road at any price.
Still uglier than an NFT.
And it’s the only Tesla designed by Elon Musk. The fraud bought his way to fame.
I love how you can tell exactly how it went down just by looking at the thing. Elon wanted a ton of specific and basically contradictory things, which led to a ton of compromises being made and corners being cut just to get it “done,” and the result is a literally flaming pile of shit.
Kinda feel bad for the engineer that had to bring a toddler’s drawing of a car to life but also fuck man, have some dignity. I’m sure his resume is good enough to go somewhere else if Elon fired him for telling him to pound sand.
That’s not all they inflated.

i remember it was 5 years before the cybertruck came out, when he showed the video and pics of the design, it hasnt changed since.
