Summary
The Tesla Cybertruck is in crisis. The automaker is still sitting on a ton of old inventory, which it is now heavily discounting, and it is throttling down production.
Tesla is expected to currently be selling the Cybertruck at a rate of about 25,000 units a year – a tenth of what Musk predicted.
Tesla began the second quarter with 2,400 Cybertrucks in inventory, valued at over $200 million. Tesla is now offering deeper discounts on the new inventory of Cybertrucks.
The automaker has reduced its Cybertruck production teams and now operates at a fraction of its original capacity.
I’m trying to think of how cheap it would have to be for me to drive one of these monstrosities and it would have to be something like $-50K/year.
Pay me a lower middle class salary and I will drive your piece of shit electric truck.
You theoretically want to die on fire trapped in one for that much money?
I struggle with suicidal ideation every day, so…maybe?
What a disaster.
In normal companies, the CEO would be fired.
Unfortunately, the ‘firing’ is usually a golden handshake and jumping straight into heading another company to run that into the ground too. After multiple rounds of layoffs of course.
Expect more CTs to catch fire in their lots, as they blame other people for arson.
Toastla
TBH, this would not surprise me at all.
Cheese pears.

Thots and Players
Ok hold up lets keep the thots, send the players tho
Oh, that took me a while. Love it!
valued at over $200 million
Bet they aren’t.
For insurance fraud purposes.
Shareholder lawsuits before the end of the year, I’m betting.
They’ll find out that it’s now a capital offense to sue Elmo.
Who the heck would want a work truck that is locked behind proprietary everything and only repairable through overpriced and overbooked, understaffed tesla dealerships.
It’s the worst decision own could make for a business vehicle or work truck.
Anytime my group and I see one in Fortnite we have to drop what we’re doing and kill whoever’s in it.
Why the fuck is there a Cybertruck in Fortnite?
Money. Tbf other automakers are in there too, but nothing screams “I’m an asshole” like driving a Cybertruck in-game.
Pay me $1000 and I’ll take one. I won’t drive it but I’ll take it.
Make sure you store it somewhere you don’t mind being surveilled.
I’d be willing to buy one to make it my sole mission to jailbreak it if it hasn’t already. I won’t rest until I have it running crysis.
Has anyone played Doom on it yet?
I’m sure all the hardworking engineers, assemblers, office workers, sales people, materials, programmers, hardware, research people are super ecstatic about having their CEO turn their brand new product from an awesome big ass piece of shit electric washed environment destruction truck into a product nobody wants.
Like probably you’ll see one of my fellow citizens running around town with a bunch of lawn mowers and leaf blowers in one of these pretty soon. How much did you pay for that shit man? Oh I got it cheap on Craigslist for $3K!
I honestly assumed they weren’t making any more of those shit boxes already.

I wonder if Tesla could take the existing Cybertrucks and rebuild them into something else that would see more demand. I mean, plenty of auto companies have models that share a basic platform.
even if you set aside the fact that driving this thing is a literal fascist dogwhistle, it’s also objectively a terrible vehicle- electric or otherwise.
Is it a crisis when it’s been that way from before the beginning.
Good. Let it burn.
