I own a cybertruck and completely love it. It’s wacky and fun and it gives me all the tech I wanted, plus I can use it like a truck when needed. I actually think it’s opposite, once people drive it they realize it’s really compelling. It does have some minor build issues that are fixed for free under warranty. Then again so does my gmc.
Same with Cybertruck, Font size is wrong, tpms light doesn't stay on if you power cycle the truck, a mirror camera opens slowly all minor software fixes, which leaves "used the wrong glue" twice, inverter problem, and windscreen motor overheating.
Point is ever car has loads of recalls, some don't get clicks so aren't reported much
Also while I’m getting down voted by a bunch of folks that have never driven one… Supervised FSD is getting very very good. I use it most days to drive and very rarely have to disengage. It is significantly better than the other driver assistance systems that I’ve driven. It’s come a long way
I have seen this. A cybertuck was pulling a small trailer for a landscaping company. It wasn't that interesting because it was a trailer that could have been pulled by most passenger cars, but I saw it.
I will acknowledge this, thought its not exactly what I had in mind.
If Cybertruck marketing claims it to be a truck - I’d like to see it perform in said capacity like a truck would. My F250 tows 8,000 lbs travel trailer as an example. I am yet to see one towed by Cybertruck.
I think two things are true, the government needs to cut expenses drastically and also that Elon should spend way more time at Tesla and spacex.
I didn’t buy my truck because of Elon, I bought it because I needed a truck and all the other truck manufacturers are completely brain dead when it comes to software.
I definitely wish Elon would shut up often, but he’s clearly not a nazi. That’s all nonsense.
His work at doge has been underwhelming so far, I had higher hopes. But it seems like most would rather have the status quo of major deficit spending and debt. Overall I would prefer drastic reduction in spending and waste with an actual plan and less chaos.
None of what Elon does makes me regret my car purchase. Why in the world would I make a personal decision like a car based on some billionaire I’ll never meet? I didn’t buy the truck as any kind of virtue signal. I bought it because I like it despite how dumb and crazy it looks.

I mean, if this was just some idiot schlub ranting on social media, perhaps I'd consider buying their products if it was a life or death situation. But this guy sits next to the president of the United States and evidently has the power to enact his fucked up policies. Personally, I see any action that gives him an iota of additional power as deeply unethical.
