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.

Two words; one man: Elon Musk.

I highly doubt he surrounds himself with anybody that would challenge the things he dreams up. He’s also addicted to Special K, which probably makes him think he’s that much more of a genius and cannot fathom himself being wrong.

The thing about getting high all the time is that eventually you will come down. And usually it’s with a crash.

He’s already fucked his bromance with Trump, and it looks like SpaceX will be taking the hit. Tesla is in the shitter, and it’s looking like that toilet is clogged and about to run over.

It’s only a matter of time before Musk implodes on himself. His “glue” is going to come undone, and his “panels” will fall to the floor with a loud thud.
