I guess if Hitler was allowed to design a car, Musk didn't want to be left behind.
To be fair to Hitler, his cars weren't trash
They made Mexico city what it is. The beetle is legendary. And the program "hoy no circular" or "today you can't commute" was invented became too many people owned too many god dammed cars. So in the program they would allow you to use your car only in certain days. Additionally they modernized their metro system making it accessible for incredibly cheap. Not long ago for a few cents you could travel around the city a few stops. By comparison the trolley in sandiego is out dated as outdated can be and it only goes up and down the coast with only one rail heading east. Mexico city made a spider grid off they're system. Like from any peripheral location you can travel to the center or travel in the periphery towards another center bound rail. Its great. You can go anywhere without a god dammed car.
Beetle was a copy of a Tatra anyway.

At least that one had big cup holders.

Elon should offer to pay the tariff for new customers.
A couple weeks ago I drove past a Tesla dealership in Northern California. They must have had a dozen of these dumpsters lined up out front.
The Swasticar!
Nazi truck.
Apparently Elon hates it when you call them swasticars, so definitely do not do that.

Fashcan?
I can understand why Nazis like it, given the truck's habit of trapping you inside as it engulfs you in flames.

I remember posting about how a guy with a cybertruck would be an immediate no go for me and I was told by a guy I was being too judgy lol
Rich enough to own a cyber truck, but not bright enough not to own a cyber truck. Yeah it's what they "call look at me" energy.
Politics notwithstanding people like that are just tiring to be around.
Being honest, if I heard about a woman that has cybertruck red flags (assuming you're cis/het), that's genuinely more attractive to me.
It’s a solid real world filter.
This is definitely more acceptable than “no social media” being a red flag. Got that one before lol

Imagine a cyber truck bro listening to Joe Rogan in that thing. How does that not make every woman in sight instantly aroused?? /s

Leon the Nazi can ask his dictator buddies, Abbott and the Orange Cockroach for a bailout.
Have they tried suing people who don't want to buy one?
In case you weren't referencing this, be amazed:

Tesla may also refuse to sell you any future vehicles
Oh no 😥
I was referencing how Elon is suing companies for not wanting to advertise on X. But this is amazing, too.

Have they tried pulling out the "Make a vehicle that's not a massive and shitty death trap," or "Boot the Nazi from the company" stops? Because, I suspect doing those two might help it out.

At least the Wolkswagen was egineered properly. I don't see anyone continuing to use this design after the war.

Who the hell buys a cybertruck anyway ?
Obviously no one, hence the article.
Youtuber it seems.
I wish journalist would stop calling this PS 1 Pontiac Aztek "futuristic"; it just highlights how shitty our future is going to be.

This should surprise no one. The reception was poor, delivery was poor. It’s a niche market item in an existing niche market. On top of that, the de facto spokesperson of Tesla isn’t well liked by a lot of potential buyers.
