Tesla will sue you for $50,000 if you try to resell your Cybertruck in the first year::Tesla may agree to buy the truck back at the original price minus "$0.25/mile driven" and any damages and repairs.

Jokes on them. I’d never buy one of these hilariously abhorrent piles of shit.

I used to think Teslas were cool. Now I just see the specter of Elon. Regardless, these look like a test for suckers.

Behind the wheel of one, I'd feel like an asshole.

Have you actually encountered a Tesla in the wild? They actually are all assholes.

I am from the vaginal canal of Tesla. Toyota Camry status.

In my experience they're all Indian.

I honestly would rather have a cyber truck than a generic F150. Fuck Musk though, so I'll pass.

There's a reason Ford sells so many F150s.

They're great trucks.

They sell based on name recognition and history. Their father, grandfather, and great grandfather all bought a Ford so they will too. They have tens of decades of repair shops with experience, cheap third party parts replacements, and because many people just keep buying the same thing without ever doing any comparison or thinking about it.
