Why so much negative Cybertruck posts & news today?

[Ernest Arzabal]

Deliveries are increasing, so the total number of problems are increasing.

The other major factor is regular people are now getting CT, it is not just employees with NDAs or influencers who got an early truck with stipulations, it is regular joes like my son who are getting CTs and when they break some people are posting.

Some of these complaints are just 'bitches?'

I get that its april fools but multiple cybertrucks are breaking down some 1 mile from delivery.
Owners here wanting to sell it and can't
News hits on tesla out of auatralia...

Seems odd.

All April fools ? ...Or are they

Truck breaking down on a busy road is not "b****ing" imo

Not what I am saying tinfoil head.... Go look at prices on anything from 2019, large purchases, homes, watches, stocks... They are all up far more than the ct....

No. That's not how that works. That's not how any of that works.

yes it is.
you have to step outside your bubble.

No, I don't.

I know how inflation works.

I know how announced prices work.

I know how median wages work, too.

Not everything costs more today than it did in 2019. I can get tomatoes and greens at basically the same prices. Same for eggs. Some things cost more, others are about the same.

Most people - especially those on the bottom and the top - are making more than they were. To be in the top 1% you needed to make under 400k a year, now it's 550k.

And prices announced at the end of 2019, wouldn't be affected by inflation during 2019. Nor 2020, either, since the prices weren't for things during either of those years.

My 'bubble' is math and facts.

Obviously not. You must not know about shrinkflation, or manipulation....
Your math is wrong.
U.S. National debt is up $10 TRILLION since 2019
The $GSG Commodity Index is up 74% since November 2019.
Federal fund rate is up 4.4% since.
Student loan debt up $100 billion since.
Not only borrowing costing more and more but everything across the board.
Does your math include how much the materials that make a cybertruck have gone up since 2019?
The materials are not as cheap as they were since 2019. We have minerals on the critical minerals list that effect the prices.
You are in a bubble crissa, wake up.

I get what Crissa is saying. But honestly, none of us get what Tesla is doing to us reservation holders. I do feel light it is a shut up and sit down move by Tesla by constantly shoving people to the front of the line AND jacking the price with all the add ons. Sure, I want Tesla to be profitable but fair as well. And I just want them to say “next month” or next quarter or FY, we have your $1,000 and plan to sit on it until you are ready to walk.

Maybe Ford does have a better idea!

 

[U92]

Elon is just trying to crash the price so he can get a larger controlling interest in the company before he changes the world again.

You actually have a great point here. I think its probable.

Not April fools day any more. Think there were more broken truck posts on X today than I have seen in the last few weeks, it may be an issue at the factory or may simply be a factor that there are more of them on the road today than any day previously. At least more delivered.

 

[BannedByTMC]

hey JRP3 we miss you over on TMC .... dont let the mods win...oh wait banned ? for life?

Spoiler: OT

I don't know if it's a perma ban or not, after the latest of many bans I just got sick of fighting the mods, (Audi and RSFred mostly), and never looked back. I told the site owners Danny and Doug that Audi was driving away good members but they don't seem to care. I think Audi may have a financial stake in the site because he has way too much power with no consequences for his actions.

Expecting the CEO of a company to respond is kind of crazy.
But I don't think it is reasonable to expect a $130k vehicle that is 3,000+ off the production line to break as soon as it is driven off the lot, after waiting 4 years for it. Justified frustration.

 

[Great Bay Shark]

Inflation is up, but it is not up 2x since 2019

Don't think the lizard people or illuminati are breaking cybertrucks and posting about it.

People are spending $120k on a truck and are pissed when it breaks as they drive it off the lot, or get stranded on the highway on their first road trip.

Right, people are paying $120K for a truck that's only worth about $70k in 2019 dollars. Then it breaks down and they call that news.
