And the Tupperware also got more brain than a cybertruck driver.

… It’s been long enough, sell the thing or start sieg heiling. Or at least sieg selling… AMIRIGHT? 😅 I’m really hoping to pick one up cheap and make the monster-truck-DeLorean-time-machine of my dreams reality 🤓 But I’m only going up to $3.50 USD… gotta’ crash the whole CyberShmuck™ economy in the process 🤑

Very early on, I think there were some well-meaning people who were really excited about it. The idea of an all-electric truck was brand new, and the promise was huge. It unfortunately wasn’t until after many Cybertruck preorders had been secured that Elon plainly revealed his true colors, and then after it was delivered that people found out it was a piece of garbage

this is not an endorsement of Musk or of Tesla or of cybertruck drivers - but this is a Very Online take. My boss’ husband drives a cybertruck, he doesn’t know what tiktok is, he doesn’t know what a meme is nor does he understand them when he sees them (he asks who it’s a photo of), the only news he consumes is in regards to logistics and supply chain and a little bit of the stock market. I imagine he has as much understanding of why people hate elon musk as to I do as to why people love Sidney Crosby and hate Alexander Ovechkin - two people I had never heard of or know nothing about before googling “hockey players people love and hate.” I won’t even remember their names in 5 minutes. I imagine a fair amount of cybertruck owners are like that.

No excuses now I believe this. At the same time, they’ll get what’s coming to them. They bought a shitty cybertruck that will break down and has shitty resell value.

No excuses now, and no bumper stickers will dissuade me. It’s been long enough, sell the thing or start sieg heiling. Hard to sell them when the only potential buyer market is people you want to avoid at all cost or a used car place that will buy it for an insulting fraction of it’s value. And buying a replacement in this economy? We can judge new buyers all day long, we can judge people with 200k salaries that keep them, but there’s lot of folks are stuck with a car that no one will buy; and maybe their situation isn’t so great either.mmaybe they got laid off, had to take a big salary cut to keep living, can’t afford a new car, and because they can charge the car for free at work they have extra money for food.
