The truck that was supposed to revolutionize everything is flopping fast.
The hype is dead. The Tesla Cybertruck, once billed as the future of electric vehicles, is now looking like a commercial bust.
In the second quarter of 2025, Tesla sold just 4,306 Cybertrucks, down a staggering 50.8% from the 8,755 units it delivered during the same period last year, according to new data from Kelley Blue Book. This plunge is a signal that America’s most hyped truck may already be out of gas.
First of all, it’s stain less not stain never. Second of all, Musk would do all the drugs instead of smuggling them. Finally, the cybertruck as is an engineering failure and no amount of money can fix it.
It’s 301 stainless - the worst and cheapest stainless available. That crap rusts if you sneeze on it. It’s what you sell to people who don’t understand that there are different types of stainless steel.
The engineering was horrible down to material design and engineering. Different types of stainless have different applications. IIRC he announced that the same material used in SpaceX rockets would be used in the cybertruck - without considering if that’d be a good idea. Most people went crazy for it because SpaceX and did not consider that space ships and cars might require different formulations
Most people think of the thing in <thing>less like the tank in a tankless water heater, rather than like less sodium in reduced sodium soy sauce.
You made all my points for me, only one note: I can properly fix a cybertruck for $20USD. maybe less what have petrol prices been doing lately
That’s not a good idea as cybertrucks have materials that can be pretty toxic when ignited. Also, I think you can induce thermal runaway on the battery less than $20 if using 87 octane.
