Everybody must be buying that great looking Cybertruck! Who would'nt want one of those?***
I’ve honestly seen more of them on the road than I ever expected.
2 million cyber cab units coming starting in 2026. Autonomous rides are about to be a reality. Uber and Lyft trying to slide in that market as well.
I had zero idea this many people have a humiliation kink. That's the only reason I can fathom for a person to purchase one.
I personally like them. My Ford holdings exceed TSLA and I really wish Ford could make the Lightning more appealing.
Tesla Cybertruck pushes past Ford Mach-E to become third best-selling EV in America

Tesla’s Cybertruck was the third best-selling electric vehicle in the United States in the third quarter, beating out every other EV not made by Tesla. The only two vehicles that sold better were the Model 3 sedan and Model Y SUV.
The polarizing truck notched this achievement despite selling at its most expensive trim model in the early going. It’s also a sign of just how much trouble major automakers like Ford and General Motors have run into in finding customers for their own EVs.
Automotive research firm Kelley Blue Book pegged Tesla’s Cybertruck sales as third-best last week, notching over 16,000 sales.
Ford only sold around 7,000 F-150 Lightnings in the third quarter, and just over 13,000 Mustang Mach-E SUVs, according to sales data from the automaker. GM has seemingly found some early success with its new Blazer and Equinox EVs, but still only sold around 32,000 electric vehicles total last quarter. Rivian only delivered around 3,800 of its own electric pickup.

I’m usually a to each, his own kinda guy, but seeing one out on the road just about bothers me as much as seeing a 20 year old driving a Hummer H2 around campus back in college.
I think because it seems like no one in their right mind would buy one for any purpose other than to advertise “hey, I’ve got money”
Those things look like an ms paint car I did when I was 7.
I appreciate the technology but they just look so stupid.

Only? Those are the 2 most populous states in the US with roughly 70 million people. That's a big deal
Wasn't trying to diminish it but there's only two states so far. I am sure others will follow.
You can say that about a whole bunch of cars. The specs on the Cybertruck are pretty insane.
I wouldn't take a free one because of twitter...am I doing this right?
For that price and how the thing looks, the specs would have to include a Flux Capacitor and a lifetime supply of plutonium to get me interested.
I've been praying for this since my kids were born. Surely this can become common by the time I have a driving age teenager in 5 years.
Does is it also bother you when someone drives a BMW, Corvette or tricked out King Ranch Ford truck?
I’m pretty sure I designed the cyber truck when I was in line at Test Track at Disney.
