> Cybertruck turned out to be Tesla’s first real commercial flop.

It's not an uncommon feeling but the cybertruck is just a flop on so many levels. To me, the most striking way is visually. It's like what an 11 year-old dreams about for a truck. To me, if I want a truck EV at this point I'd pick a Rivian any day. At least those are visually appealing, where the cybertruck exudes "LOOK AT ME I'M A BIG MEME LOL".

It really does just look like no one with any industrial design experience had any involvement in the thing. Truck drawn by a child really is the only way to describe it.

I’m nearly certain that if I had any of my notebooks from when I was a child age 5-10 or so, there would be at least one vehicle I drew that is exactly like the Tesla truck. Though my version probably had rocket launchers and machine guns on it.

All we need now is for Nvidia to buy them and in exchange for stock and start renting them to OpenAI
