So how many Cybertrucks did Tesla actually sell?

A March recall—in which Cybertruck panels were literally falling off due to faulty glue—betrayed the number: 46,096 sold in the 14 months since deliveries began. That’s less than 3,300 per month.

I have no idea why Tesla thought that the Cybertruck would sell well enough to justify the production numbers.

They should have did the Roadster first instead and then the Cybertruck, both run in 5k lots to meet orders. Making such niche vehicles like it was going to be bought up like an F150 or a Civic is just dumb.

Leadership is abusing Ketamine. Junkies make bad decisions.

Now now, let's not be too mean to junkies.

Being a filthy rich egomeniacle moron that doesn't have to deal with real world problems makes one fucking braindead, too.

The rest of us just do drugs to deal with trying to implement management decisions.
