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

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

As the article title states, unlike Elon Musk, Tesla pulls out.

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.

If we had one more season of Silicon Valley, Russ would absolutely be rubbing finger prints out of his Founder Edition Cyber Truck.

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

[essteeyou@lemmy.world]

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

Hey! I heard you could get one of these fasc-mobiles for $75k, now!

[ilovethebomb@lemm.ee]

Most pickup truck owners don't do that either.

[ilovethebomb@lemm.ee]

OK, but what the hell was that person on about though?

[valmond@lemmy.world]

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

[briantheebiscuiteer@lemmy.world]

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.

[rickdg@lemmy.world]

Have they tried making a decent truck?

[homesweethomemrl@lemmy.world]

An enormous mistake?

[homesweethomemrl@lemmy.world]

Well yeah, but to be fair, they were lying.

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

[ms_lane@lemmy.world]

Have they tried making a good car?
