Are people who bought Teslas, some probably for laudable climate ends, now disgusted to drive their car every day? Or are people still buying them and it’s not yet hit home where their dollars are going…or other? Are people selling them due to political reasons now?
I had a down payment for a Cybertruck and I passed on it when my number was called even tho my son is in love with it and I need a new vehicle.
I put money where my mouth is. Fuck that guy
I strongly doubt that you NEED a cybertruck.
Go with the smallest vehicle you can get away with. For moving house or buying a big couch or sth you can rent a bigger vehicle (a van is probbaly more practical in these situations anyway).
Smaller vehicles are just so much cheaper in maintenance, EVs even more
I don’t need anything. Nobody needs anything except for water, food and shelter. But hear me out.
My last vehicle was purchased in 1999. It is a small 2 seater coupe with 2 tiny tiny seats in the back. I have replaced the engine 2 times and transmission once. Parts are now getting hard to come by and my family needs are growing. We like camping and each time we rent a vehicle. We are constantly trying to figure out how to move our things in my tiny car. It’s a chore to drive a small car with a family.
It’s 24 years and I feel like I have already done my part in reducing my carbon footprint.
So when looking for my next vehicle, I wanted a bigger vehicle to go camping and carry equipment to my kids practice.
I want reverse charging for my home, so my options are limited. Ford F150 and Cybertruck. Another selling point for the Cybertruck is that it’s bulletproof against handguns. That’s kinda nice knowing that if someone started shooting into my vehicle, we might survive.
Completely off topic but as a European it blows my mind that gunfire resistance is a factor to consider when purchasing cars in America.
No, its weird to me as an American too. Its not the fucking wild west here, very few people are catchin stray bullets in family cars lol thats not a real world concern, its security theatrics
Wrong. Drag needs to be dominated by a big strong dragon.
If you need an electric pickup at least you have options. I’ve driven the F-150 Lightning a small bit and really liked it, and Ford is now including free installation of their bidirectional charger that allows the truck to serve as an emergency power source for your home.
What do you think of the Rivian trucks?
I like the Rivan. The major gripe I have with it is the price. I can’t justify it over the Ford F150 lightning.

FYI that was debunked.
