The shareholder fans love this because everyone tiny bit they squeeze out is more profit and that matters more than having a good product as long as sales don’t drop significantly (they have dropped for the past couple years but that doesn’t matter because robots)
Every time I want to park my Cybertruck in a tight place I wish I had some USS because the 3D rendering view is DEFINITELY not anywhere near as accurate for distance. It will show me as touching something when I still have a foot of space.
Oh, there are plenty - think of pretty much everything from Nissan, Toyota, VW, Honda. None of them make me go “Wow” in a good way or bad way. I will say I think the new Prius is actually a nice looking car which is surprising since they’ve been historically so ugly.
I’m 5’9”. Unless there is a tool box or the truck is a low rider, no I cannot reach anything from the side of a pickup. I just climb up on the tailgate to get stuff out of the bed of any truck. Seems like a weird non issue to me.
Even a Maverick would be hard to reach things in the middle for...
Surprisingly my lifetime average over 15k miles (two winters) in my Cyberbeast is 400 Wh/mi (2.5 mi/kWh). I thought for sure it would be worse. I agree that R2 will probably surprise people considering its shape vs a Model Y
I can’t reach in the side of any truck without climbing onto the tire and stretching. That’s such a weird thing to try to argue about.
I took my rear view mirror off because it has live camera view on screen all the time which can see way more than a rear view mirror. Do wish the camera was on...
You have obviously never driven one. It’s great at all those things. You’re repeating talking points of other people who dislike it and have never driven it. Two of the wraps I’ve designed are on Cybertrucks that have been off road for months in places like Moab.
Edit:
the orange and blue ones...
Sorry but Cybertruck is actually an amazing vehicle to drive and use as a truck. But the brand has been obliterated and everyone associates it with Elon and politics now and the cost is too high for mass adoption anyway.
if they make it look normal and it starts at $50k instead of $79k like Cybertruck and don’t use the cyber name it would do well. Cybertruck is completely destroyed from a branding perspective.

Would it really? I think it would just draw from some Model Y sales. I can’t imagine a lot of people are on the fence about Tesla thinking “I’d love to buy a Model Y but only if it were 8” longer”
My first Model 3 was black interior (only option at launch). I got white for my second Model 3 and absolutely loved it. Felt way more open inside. Both of my wife’s Model Ys have been white interior and if it had been an option my Cybertruck would be too. Black interior feels too closed in and...
