The Tesla Cybertruck has done what very few modern-day vehicles have been able to achieve – become one of the most recognizable cars on the road. However, Tesla has a major issue on its hands: Its angular electric pickup isn't selling in the numbers it had hoped for.

      Honestly, if looks were its only problem, I think you’d have a lot more people looking to buy one. I actually really like the way it looks. What I don’t like is the fact that it’s a poorly-constructed approximation of a truck that’s made by a company owned by a literal Nazi.

        I’m also not a fan of the fact that, like all Teslas (if not all new cars in general) it’s full of proprietary spyware with bad UX and assorted enshittification.

            Yes: you can buy a used car. That’s my strategy, anyway: I’m hoarding cars from the '90s. 🙃

            moped car is the closest i know of, and honestly a big part of why there’s no smart stuff is because they’re built so cheaply

        Musk owns less than 13% of Tesla. He’s the largest, but by no means majority shareholder.

        I think you meant to say It’s made by a company run by a literal Nazi.
