Tesla pulls out all the stops as Cybertruck sales grind to a halt

The Lightning really is a nice looking truck.
The trapezoid Minecraft
CybertruckDeplorian— not so much…Deplorian
I'll be borrowing that one.

The target audience is monied tech bro millenials who really wanted a warthog out of Halo.
The problem is that the overlap between tech bros and nazi lovers is definitely not 100%, probably not even 10%.

Dont be so sure about that ratio. Plently of "got mine, im all bootstraps" tech bros. Id put the number at about 70/30% against nazis, but no better.

Looking at the 2024 sales numbers of the lighting and R1T, the Cybertruck is selling well comparatively.
That said, I can’t imagine that the look of the truck, and the actions of Tesla’s CEO, are helping sales in anyway.

Musk aside, it looks so goddamn stupid, I'd be embarrassed to drive around in it regardless. Like a cheap 80s movie version of what a futuristic car would look like.
And as Others have noted, why would you want a truck that looks like it can carry less stuff than a motorcycle can?
If we had one more season of Silicon Valley, Russ would absolutely be rubbing finger prints out of his Founder Edition Cyber Truck.

I want a truck, not a Cadillac with a bed.
And that certainly ain't no Cadillac.
As and when announced, it would have been one of the cheapest EVs. I’m not interested in a truck, but that announced price and done of the technology they promised, were very tempting. However now we see how preorders based on just an announcement are risky

A bad pickup truck is still just a pickup truck.
Yep, what else could you call it? It's not a hatchback, a sedan, a convertible, a sports car, etc.

I swear that every time I saw one, the people around would point and laugh. 100k+ to drive a car that is always broken and mocked by everyone is quite expensive.
Hey! I heard you could get one of these fasc-mobiles for $75k, now!

I don't think I'd call that thing a pickup. I'm not gonna run to the farm and pick up a 1000lb bale of hay in that thing. A Baja looks like it has more bed space.
Most pickup truck owners don't do that either.

You gotta love these comments in forums. Like the whole point of being here is to discuss and people like this are literally telling you to leave the site. Very useful, much contributions.
OK, but what the hell was that person on about though?

Aed get real professionals to design and build future models.
Just ordinary professionals will do nicely.

Hopefully his investors finally learn their fkn lesson and stop giving him money so he can be an ass

The best thing they could do for their sales is get rid of all ties to Elon Musk.
I definitely would've considered Tesla as my first EV but as of now they're dead to me. If he was completely gone then that actually becomes a selling point for me.

Have they tried making a decent truck?

An enormous mistake?
-
They shipped 39k cybertrucks for backlogged preorders that were based on a completely different description of what the truck would be.
Well yeah, but to be fair, they were lying.

CybertruckDeplorian— not so much…Hey, that is a very hurtful thing to say about Minecraft. Please don't compare it to that rolling dumpster fire

Its basically a large hatchback

Or even better, get Olivier Boulet (of Mitsubishi infamy) to do their future designs so we can put the company out of its misery.
