Musk Says Tesla ‘Dug Our Own Grave’ With The Cybertruck

What city ?
As of April 2025 it's claimed that there are between 6,500-8,000 unsold Cybertrucks sitting on various lots. Tesla has only sold 64,000 Cybertrucks. I'd be curious how many have been bought back as Lemons due to being bricked etc.
Wrong,
As of May its pretty well known (Tesla might have commented as well)
There are 10,000 unsold Cyber Trucks. Things are so bad that Tesla itself will NOT take a cyber truck trade-in.
"Tesla is sitting on a record number of inventory units of its flagship Cybertruck. How many, you ask? Try a whopping 10,000 units, according to the data reported on by Electrek."

Of course Tesla doesnt reveal true USA sales numbers on any of its products. Any guess why?
Tesla states unsold inventory of 2400 units for the record.

I dont know the answer of who is right but that is part of the problem when a company hides sales figures. We have estimates now of up to 10,000 unsold trucks. Tesla states an inventory of 2,400 conflicting numbers in my head but bottom line is the truck is a big fail.
Sales of the truck are undisputed in the toilet. Even by Tesla themselves. So bad they will not accept their own trucks on a trade in. Other car dealers want nothing to do with the truck as a trade either, unless of course you want to take a huge fire sale hit in price and even then some dealers want nothing to do with it.
Some may blame Musks politics and I am sure that MAY not have helped but does anyone ask maybe the truck itself has tarnished Tesla's reputation? Some people think it's so ugly it turns them off to the Tesla name at a time that other automakers have started turning out with nice vehicles the traditional American family loves. All at a time that interest in EVs are at a low further adding to sale pressure.

It's the Delorian of the 2020's
It's not just expensive to buy, but it's also expensive to insure, tires cost $2K per set, and you can't park it somewhere without worrying if someone will mess with it. Politics aside, the number of people who can afford this thing are limited.
At the original $35K price point (fine, with inflation, even $45K) and if the insurance was reasonable for it, they would sell EVERY one they could make.
But any new truck has a similar problem... that's why you see lots of full of Hummer EV, Sierra EVs, even gas/diesel 1500s and 2500s of all brands, chilling on dealer lots. People just can't afford these things. It's just more obvious when it's a Cybertruck because Tesla in the news is more interesting than Ram in the news and while a lot full of Ram 2500s blends in easily, a lot full of metallic triangle thingies is VERY easy to spot.
If I won the lottery a Cybertruck would still be my first purchase. Then a house. Lol.

Wow I heard 9,400 unsold in December 2024. I knew that Tesla won't take them in on trade which says alot. I would love to see the federal government raid Teslas corporate headquarters (like they did at Rocky Flats) as I wouldn't be a bit surprised if there is serious fraud going on.Wrong,

Lol massive fraud , it's ok , it will be alright
I am still waiting for Elon (he's wack) to announce, "The joke is on you!"
I like to think of it as a modern day Edsel.
I see quite a few of them around the Nashville area. But, then again, they’re sort of hard to miss!
It’s a curiosity to me.
I haven’t researched them much. I know they’re big and they’re fast.
Do they have much utility? Like how much can you fit in the bed?
How many passengers?
I assume it can tow at least several thousand lbs. For a short distance.
The funny thing is all the people that claim it's not a real truck, yet it has a longer bed than every standard 4 door truck on the market these days.
Apparently due to the rearward sloping cab the bed length is misleading.
I think everyone is over Elons overpromising and delivering half of what he said is going to be delivered. Apparently the new roadster will "fly" according to the Muskrat. Anyone want to bet him a billion or two that it won't? If the new roadster "flies " it will need FAA certification which Tesla won't pay for.

Wonder if there will be a 'Cybertruck 2' with better styling.
So technically it's the same length as every other pretend workhorse with 4 doors and a 5.5 foot bed.
No kidding. Can get get away from these crazy fairy tales? Sell the product for what it is instead of angering people for under delivering. I bought the cars because I knew what I was getting. I openly talk trash about FSD not because I'm mad it doesn't work. I knew it wasn't great when I got the car. I just think a little bit of honesty and realism can go a long way from an owner instead of these crazy people that don't think Tesla can do anything wrong. There are part of the car that are really great and there's some stuff that's really bad. Lying about it doesn't help anyone.
