    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.

      Yep, what else could you call it? It's not a hatchback, a sedan, a convertible, a sports car, etc.

        The Lightning really is a nice looking truck.

        Hey, that is a very hurtful thing to say about Minecraft. Please don't compare it to that rolling dumpster fire

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

                The main reason I bought a truck was to tow heavy shit, and this piece of fuck trash Cyber truck can't even do that without the battery failing after less than 100 miles. Meanwhile an F150 can tow six times it's own weight thousands of miles.

                    Plus the initial sales were to people who had already committed to preorders at a lower price for a truck that was hyped up to be far better than the end result.

                    Cybertrucks are basically No Man's Sky but without the possibility of being good in a half decade.

                      I was referencing how Elon is suing companies for not wanting to advertise on X. But this is amazing, too.

                      Hmm, it's kind of like he has an established MO for when his businesses are failing due to his own poor decisions and lack of business sense.

                        Most pickup truck owners don't do that either.

                                I'd like a GTA singleplayer cheat making every police car a cybertruck that can't pursue you for long and would rather lose control and do a barrel roll than even get close to you.

                                  I'm surprised you mentioned the battery (which is a problem with any EV towing), and not the fact the hitch can just snap off if you hit a pothole hard enough.

                                    With all the trailer capacity available it will be able to carry one, maybe even TWO packages!

                                      It's an Ute, like the old El Camino etc.

                                      Real pickups have body-on-frame construction with cabs and beds bolted onto the chassis separately, so that the bed can be removed and replaced with a specialized/custom one if necessary.

                                        Hatchbacks can fold down the rear seats to extend the cargo area. The Cybertruck fails even at that.

                                          "niche market," is a way of saying they made a bad product few want.

                                          pickup trucks are hardly a niche product especially in the us
