Tesla Cybertruck inventory goes through the roof

I would have loved a Cybertruck...
- before they completely redesigned away every innovation they promised
- before I realized it was in 1.35 scale. I would have rather have it be a mid-sized truck like the GMC Canyon (Rivian understood the assignment)
- before Elon showed the world that he's actually a moron
- before Elon let the world know he's a pathetic megalomaniac with a delicate ego
- before Elon showed the world that he's pathetic enough to cheat at video games
- before Elon showed the world that he is literally a Nazi.

I’m in the same boat as you.
Disclosure: I used to be a Tesla shareholder. And I made a few pennies off the hype.
Alas, Elon is a giant cunt, and Tesla sucks (and is obscenely overvalued as well).
The saddest part about Elon’s mask falling off, for me personally: explaining to my son - who aspires to be an engineer, and who idolized Musk as a modern-day Iron Man mythic hero - that Musk is, sadly, a con-man who succeeded wildly for awhile at grift (and he’s a shitty father, and a fascist, at that); that was a huge bummer for me.

I bought into Tesla at below the $100 mark because I genuinely believed that Tesla, SpaceX, and yes, Elon would bring about a new tech revolution and allow us to start leaving the past behind.
That's what hurts the most. The absolute waste of potential. He could have done so much good but alas, down the shitter it all went.
-
Does your son realize that Elon is not an engineer? And he has never produced his own invention (the
shadowshape of the cyber truck does not count as an invention).

I was a little excited about the potential of the CT, too. The idea of a cheap outer shell folded from cheap sheet steel, something that can be welded, beaten, and easily repaired was a good concept, to my mind. On top of a mass produced cheap chassis with a beefy battery for worksites and a reasonable amount of storage, it could have been great. I don't even mind the look of it.
I sold my Tesla stock last year at the 400 mark. Still had to keep 100 shares to back a call option.

That's rough. I sold the moment he started going Twitter crazy. I left some money on the table but I just had to get out. Same with Facebook. I bought early because some of my good friends had been there since early days and they had nothing but good things to say. The moment Trump got elected, and I saw not only what Facebook had done but also the dumpster fire it had become, I left the platform and dumped my stock.
Fascism is an instant sell for me.

Yeah. They're ugly as fuck, but I want a vehicle that does what a truck does and is electric. The initial reveal was like, 80% of what a truck does. Close enough when there were no other options on the market.
Then they watered it down, didn't even deliver something remotely reliable, musk went full Nazi, then Ford and rivian made trucks that fit the bill better anyways. Not that it really ever bothered me, but also their trucks are not ugly as sin.
Cybertruck will probably be studied in business schools for centuries as the textbook monumental fuck up that it is.

I’m looking forward to see how Slate goes with their truck. Slate Truck

Don’t forget to add: When it became clear how poorly designed the vehicle would be even in regards to incredibly simple, already solved problems. Like, the fucking thing can’t even do what their regular cars can and those are built exceedingly poorly by today’s standards.
-
I'm no inventory accountant expert, but I do believe this is bad for business because of taxes or something rather.
-
Lol at the thought of a large company paying taxes, that is a good one.
-
-
When you make a vehicle that can’t survive 6 months in the real world, you need this many replacements for your warranties, but given all the water issues, I’m surprised their insurance lets them park em outside in the rain.

Fuck around and find out.

The
futuristicpuerile-looking Tesla CybertruckThere, FTFY.

What's sad is that, even though he was supposedly inspired by Cyberpunk, the final design goes completely against the Cyberpunk aesthetic ethos. Everything about cyberpunk is style forward. Bling. Flash. The Cybertruck "style" is minimalism to the extreme.
Here is a quote from Cyberpunk.
There's nothing as unforgiving as leaving a bad looking corpse.
-- Dr. Halman Thompson

Dystopian futuristic maybe, in the way that a tank car is futuristic if you assume society is going to collapse into a lawless hellscape
-
Except that the cyberfucked has proven itself to be an abysmal offroad vehicle.
And you dont get smooth roads in a lawless hellscape. Just go drive in Alberta or Saskatchewan. Or any red state outside of the main interstate freeways.

I'm from the UK and we have laws about sharp edges on on sky cars to minimise deaths to pedestrians. As soon as saw this thing I knew it was never going to be sold in Europe. Such a weird design choice with limited marketability.

fix your order backlog with this simple trick

There's a nearby Tesla dealership - less than a mile from the beach - and the Cybertrucks are just rusting on the lot. Apparently their steel is as stainless as their self-driving is full.
