It’s ugly, it’s heavy, it’s completely impractical, it’s associated with a petty tyrant.
Nobody wants it.
It also has terrible build quality, is almost double the price they said it would be, & does zero things better than any of its competitors. Crazy to think that anyone would prefer to purchase something (or you know, literally anything) other than a cybertruck
Yep. Tons of recalls and it doesn’t help people get locked in them and die thanks to fires or other causes.
Because they are ugly, bad at doing things trucks do and made by a Nazi piece of shit.
They’re also bad at doing things a car does.
Oh and they might kill grandma.
And break your fingers.
And accelerate uncontrollably.
good, you couldn't pay me to drive one of these monstrosities that scream "my personality is the color Florida"
The Cybertruck’s hype appears to be fading.
What hype? The only things it was known for since day one was being horrendously ugly, bad design, bad build, stupidly unsafe.... Need to go on?
The thing is more flammable than a Ford Pinto which is the only impressive fact about it.
What hype?
TBH, it's gotten a lot of press, much more than most cars, ev's or not. Much of it negative though, so not calling it hype is valid.
It wasn't "much of it was negative", it was "all of it was negative". I am sure I missed a few news headers but from all the cyber fruck news I've seen, not a single one was positive with the single exception being a few idiot owners who actually bought the thing and posted videos about it and even those were mostly negative where they literally sat with a sad face in their car.
If literally 90+% is negative, then no, it's not a hype.
I see your point. Not sure about the portion of bad vs good, but I've seen both, for example about the drive by wire stuff. There was some genuine interest in the CT before we actually got to see how much of a POS it really was.
