Tesla Cybertruck appears to be facing significant sales challenges. After initial hype faded, and over a million reservations turned out to be as real as unicorns, Tesla is now enabling leasing options and free upgrades to move its inventory of the futuristic pickup truck. The company’s recent silence on the Cybertruck, even omitting it from their earnings call, speaks volumes about the situation.
Tesla initially projected sales of 500,000 Cybertrucks annually and established production capacity at the Giga Texas for 250,000 units per year. After working through the initial reservation backlog with fewer than 40,000 deliveries, the automaker is now struggling to sell the remaining vehicles.
If you do not revolt against the government, you will receive a free cybertruck as a replacement for your house, which will be too expensive to live in.
Each immigrant willing to leave voluntarily will receive a free cybertruck.
The US military, firefighters, EMT’s and police force will get new vehicles! They will all start to use cybertrucks.

You joke, but I can 100% see this happening.
That’s unlikely. You need to get grants from the federal government, chiefly the DHS, to get money to buy major equipment. There ain’t anymore federal grants remember. Small volunteer, (70% of all fire depts in the US), services are especially reliant on those grants to replace major assets.

You are acting like they don’t have an interest in arming/militarizing local police…
You act like you don’t understand police departments need grants to buy those things also.
Let me introduce you to this one hidden trick: no-bid contracts.
Let me introduce you to ‘We ain’t got no money to buy anything’ trick.
I assure you that the police (and/or other enforcement positions) will be some of the last to “run out of money.”
I wouldn’t take a cybertruck if it was free, ignoring musk entirely it’s just a bad vehicle.
The only place I’ll drive a Cybertruck is in Fortnite because there I want my car to be unsafe.
Have they tried suing people who don’t want to buy one?
I saw my first cybertruck in traffic yesterday, I initially thought that some redneck had every part you need to make a car except for the frame and body, and was like “I don’t need none of that fancy shit, I got square tube and steel plate!” and welded together the laziest design they could think of. Then I realized it was just a cybertruck, and promptly laughed at it.
If it was part of a trend of Redneck shit mobiles itd be respectable but stupid, the fact that they are built out of a factory and not Bubba’d out of scrap metal and random parts in a garage makes them thoroughly stupid and infinitely trashy.
