The decision to halt production of Tesla’s polarizing polygonal pickup marks the end of an error.
Elon Musk, in a post on X, has officially called time on the Cybertruck, stating that “Tesla will be winding down production of the Cybertruck at Gigafactory Texas around the middle of next year to make room for increased Cybercab production.”
Produced for less than four years, the polarizing pickup is seemingly dying as it lived, with the news being greeted in a flurry of replies in praise of the EV as well as deriding it. James Star, claiming to be a Tesla employee, posted that it was “the saddest news! Cybertruck (was) the best car Tesla sold,” right next to a user called Captain Ford who simply replied to Musk with “Fuck that shitbox.”
There are a least five near where I live that I see. They all look ridiculous, but the ones that haven’t been wrapped look horrible. The stainless steal is definitely not stainless.
The only one that makes a little sense is owned by a sneaker shop and has a branded wrap. They use it to tow their showroom trailer to various events and using it for a billboard that tows seems reasonable.
Maybe I’m a bit obsessive but I can’t help but think of any tesla owner as a fascist.
Don’t care if you bought one before Musk went mask off.
These things are much worse in this way than the sedans - it’s a very public approval of musk, because they were his personal project or whatever.
I’d never buy anything from that shoe shop for this reason, and I don’t think I’m alone.
