Need a shovel?
Haha that's so--
Actually, never mind. I don't care that much.
Elon has a habit of doing this
Coming from the manbaby who based the design of the space x rocket on the movie the dictator
This is the best summary I could come up with:
Elon Musk said that Tesla "dug its own grave" with the Cybertruck, as he warned that it would take years for the company to ramp up production of the electric pickup.
And special products that come along once in a long while are just incredibly difficult to bring to market to reach volume, to be prosperous," he added.
"When you've got a product with a lot of new technology or any brand new vehicle program, especially one that is as different and advanced as the Cybertruck, you will have problems proportionate to how many new things you're trying to solve at scale," he added.
First announced in 2019, the futuristic pickup truck was expected to ship in 2021, but has experienced several delays as Tesla grappled with the vehicle's unique design and the complexity of producing it at scale.
According to CNBC, Elon Musk sent an email to Tesla employees in August saying that the Cybertruck should be as precisely designed as a Lego brick, with measurements that could not vary by more than 10 microns.
Earlier versions of the pickup seen in the wild have been called out for scratching and finish issues by prospective buyers, as well as being fingerprint magnets because of their stainless steel body.

Still learned no engineering? ;-)
Ok he has been in Germany for only two years now, and he is offering such a bad work environment that people are running out of the doors there as fast as he hires them ...
Surprised it's the Cybertruck that is causing so much problems, I always assumed it has the design it has specifically so that it is easy to manufacture.
It would seem Musk assumed the same thing.
