Even the Tesla Cybertruck’s Brake Lights Don’t Make Sense::Brake lights shouldn’t be confusing, but Tesla’s determined to be different with the Cybertruck, for better or worse.

    They say they have a million preorders…

    I ordered a Tesla S way back in the day when it was a 6 month wait. I had to put down a $2000 deposit. But I got it all back when I cancelled the order a few months later.

    So I have to wonder what those million preorders actually mean. Because boy howdy people are going to have some fucking buyer’s remorse once these eyesores start shipping.

    They make the Pontiac Aztec look good. And that’s saying something!

      Love that Walter White had the Aztec pre-Heisenberg. Went well with the character at that time.

      The deposit was only $250, fully refundable, so there was no reason not to. At the time, there were no EV pickups, so this was announced to be first, and starting price target was $39k.

      So now, it’s not first but last to release, price is way higher, and it’s not coming together as expected. I wish they’d stop reminding people about the preorders because they’re going to lose a lot of them

        And if the million preorders did hold up, it would still be bad for them because they’ll need two years to produce them all.
