Elon claims 150000 preorders. I think that is fake news to manipulate the 770 million he lost on stock price from the cyber truck announcement failure.

Elon hates short sellers making money on him.

Yeah I am having a hard time with that number as well unless its all like fleet orders for local municipalities. I have seem some people who apparently like it but by far and large I do not think the reception has been very warm but traditional truck buyers.

Some EV specific website put out an article praising it trying to turn the ugliness to a positive basically saying that the shape is what it is because there is no frame and the outter shell provides the structural support, thus why the shape is like a triangle. This brings up two big concerns for me, if the outer shell is strong enough to act as the frame does it lack crumple zones? I wonder how it fairs in a crash test. Without crumple zones to absorb the energy it would seems the occupants would have a less than stellar experience. And also if the outer shell is the frame, how easily is the thing totaled in an accident since any damage to the body is essentially frame damage.

I do crash safety engineering as a profession, airbags specifically, and if some numb nut is claiming it’s shaped like that for structure, they are full of $hit.

Just Tesla fan boys trying to excuse musks mistake.

Let me add, my employer deals with Tesla and Musk is a complete doucher who does not like to pay his bills.

So much needs to change on that prototype before NHTSA will allow it to be roadworthy.

Let’s start with proper headlights and side mirrors to start.
