Tesla cancels the CyberTruck!

[getbent]

Elon has decided to cancel the electric truck. In other news, I just bought some parts for my old pickup, so, no harm!

Being old and set in my ways, I simply have no desire to go with a Battery Truck.
NOPE!!!

It was ugly.

Work trucks and vans are an area where electric makes a lot of sense.

I'm not sure who the Tesla truck was aimed at though, it looked like a bad art project that someone cut out with tin snips. (Like a Peavey logo on wheels...)

Like a Peavey logo on wheels...

Why can I only like this statement once?!!

 

[radtz]

I was going to buy one for the windows.

End of the article reads...

A Tesla source later admitted that this entire article is utter nonsense.

I do however think the truck is ugly and the fact that Ford is making a EV Truck that starts at $42K that is $6K cheaper than the cheapest car Tesla makes does not bode well for the T Truck.

Hmm, so the article was published on the first of April ...

T'weren't a truck, t'was a UFO wannabe. Maybe no wheels and a hover skirt woulda' helped.
Hmmm, the April 1 comment is noted. And surfing shows that. It is still a ufo wannabe though.
If it looks like a truck and works like a truck, it's a truck.
If it doesn't look like a truck and doesn't work like a truck, it's not a truck.
Some folks evidently say ufo to Elon.
I like that there 'lectric innovation stuff.

I caught content pointing out the April 1 date. Still, it would not be hard to convince me that high priced and theoretically high margin light truck and van EVs will be overshadowed by practical and high volume products. There Ford has stopped taking orders because of high initial demand.

For next sizes up Daimler, Paccar and Volvo are well ahead of Tesla if actually shipping products means anything.

I think he was heard saying, due to recent events, he wanted to focus efforts on the Flamethrower v2.

AKA, buying a 10% or so stake in Twitter.
