The vehicles are so bad that even the company that makes them won't buy them.
More like, they can't sell what they've already got so they aren't gonna take even more stock.
Yes, because they're so bad.
Also because people don't like to support the Nazi billionaire who is actively destroying their country. But the terrible quality control of their overpriced and poorly designed cars doesn't help.
Those are two different flavors of bad.
You can mix multiple flavours. It’s like a chocolate vanilla swirl except it’s just two flavours of dogshit.
There's always room for specificity.
Terrible QC is just the cherry on top. The things are just designed poorly front and back, inside and out.
Fuck the cyber truck and all, but their sales numbers are still pretty good when you compare them to the other expensive EV trucks floating around.
If they were more affordable, I guarantee you that you’d see more assholes driving these.
They have thousands upon thousands of them sitting in their factories right now that they can't sell
No they are not, last i hard they sold less than 4k cybertrucks.
Over 40k.
Tesla pulls out all the stops as Cybertruck sales grind to a halt
Why would you? They can't compare in any real metric, cause they're not a damn truck.
Oh shit, I thought I was joking that he had no way to get rid of it.
Judging this guy by the rest of the company he's in as far as these Cybertrucks go, I wonder how "open to differences" he is towards other people.
Didn't the people purchasing them have to sign a document saying they would not resell them to a 3rd party? Or did that not happen?
They backpedaled on that because they aren't worth shit.
