The type of people buying the cyber truck I bet pop their collars, wear neon-rimmed sunglasses, call each other "bro" have blonde highlights, and have "Miami Vice" soundtrack blaring.

I find it rather ugly......maybe in a few years it will grow on me. When the TESLA's came out I thought they were cool looking and I wanted one. Now, everyone and their brother has one and they look boring.
Nah, a lot of us do OF, film a lot of the content y’all dream of on xvids/xnxx and have zero issues with EVs of any design. #dysontruck or #8bittruck

It tows 7800lbs 178miles. 🤷🏿‍♂️

I’ll have zero issue punting the dyson SUV for the charging network, software, less complex CT.

if I was on a VPN&throw away acct I might share the “vault” pics showing how large it is inside. 😶🌫😂

Does Tesla have (or has it previously had with earlier releases) any attempts to deter flipping? I could see the CT becoming a prime target for that kind of behavior... which is to say, I wish I had a reservation I could take delivery of and flip.

Nearing 2 million Cybertruck reservations. Tesla is reportedly receiving 1,000 reservations per day.

As Elon stated, Cybertruck demand is so far off the hook that you can’t even see the hook.

What’s the point of comparing $100 CT reservations to the delivery total of 4 separate vehicles models? Besides pretty graphics

Looks like some of the lights on the light bar are burnt out already. Cybertruck is off to a great start.
It’s just trying to imitate its FORD wrap as much as possible: Fix Or Repair Daily

Kind of disingenuous of Tesla to be reporting those reservations.

People are reserving a vehicle with no released price or final specs. I’m sure a lot of with $100 dollars would love any near full size truck for 39,900. It is a whole different story if that price is well north of 70k.

Look at how many people were willing to cancel their R1 reservations when prices were announced less than 15k higher.

Exactly. Plus there are thousands of people who have multiple reservations with I guess nothing more than the intention of flipping them.

That “reports” crowdsourced numbers. Not reliable. Nor would any number stated publicly by Musk, unfortunately. He has a history and habit of lying about features and demand for his products.

But even if you believed those numbers, how can you claim they are accurate when not a single reservation holder knows the specs, dimensions or price of the truck? They certainly will change when those facts are finally announced.

Even when Rivian claimed they had 70,000 backorders we had no idea if that was accurate or not.

The Cybertruck is still missing three essentials: New MSRP's, trim levels and specifications.

Rumor is the huge announcement is coming towards the end of September. Reservation holders have been sitting on pins and needles ever since Tesla deleted the MSRP's from the Cybertruck's website ordering page.

Tesla is going to be facing major backlash and cancellations from Cybertruck reservation holders if the revised MSRP's are in the stratosphere.
Which is exactly why Tesla is slow rolling it. They are building up interest and momentum WITHOUT announcing price and specs. That tells me that the price is gone way up and the specs suck. If Tesla is building them already then they know what the specs and the costs will be already.

There's no reason not to announce those at this point if they were as good as many people are hoping.

I always get the biggest laugh with the CT "reservation list". People act like it's some accurate master list from Tesla. It's a crowd sourced spreadsheet from the forums that has simply been "revealed" by these EV sites. Says right at the top of the graphic. 🤣
