Tesla’s Cybertruck Is a Bust - eviltoast

The truck that was supposed to revolutionize everything is flopping fast.

The hype is dead. The Tesla Cybertruck, once billed as the future of electric vehicles, is now looking like a commercial bust.

In the second quarter of 2025, Tesla sold just 4,306 Cybertrucks, down a staggering 50.8% from the 8,755 units it delivered during the same period last year, according to new data from Kelley Blue Book. This plunge is a signal that America’s most hyped truck may already be out of gas.

      It’s a fair question. The whole 88 mph thing from back to the future was a joke because no one thought a delorian could go that fast.

        Pretty sure the joke was 88 is a common Nazi code. Eight letter in the alphabet is alphabet is ‘h’ - it’s “HH” which stands for the obvious.

        14 is another one. When MyPillow had a sale for $14.88, there was a reason for it…
