Updated: 1,240+ Cybertrucks Sit in Tesla Inventory... And That's Just in the Top 25 Metros (fuelarc.com)

Tesla’s Cybertruck, once touted as “the World’s Toughest Truck,” now seems to be gathering rust in inventories across major U.S. metropolitan areas.

A recent count reveals that within 25 miles of some of the top 25 most populous zip codes, a staggering 1,246 Cybertrucks remain in unsold inventory. The total count nationwide of Cybertrucks waiting on a buyer is likely much higher, as these 25 mile segments only account for about half of the US population.

If each Cybertruck sells at the minimum price of $79,990, that’s about $100 million worth of what Ask Car Guys voted overwhelmingly for the Worst Truck Ever Made.

Here’s the data!

You couldn't pay me to drive one of those shit boxes. My kid's baseball coach drives one n it's all tricked out to advertise his company. I low key wanna ask him if he's thinking about taking the ads off it, but I don't know him well enough, and I get the feeling he's one of those people, and if that's the case, I hope he loses business driving around with his company advertising essentially right next to a large swastica.

I won't say "you couldn't pay me to drive one", but only because I'm honest enough with myself to admit that there is absolutely an amount that someone could pay me to drive one around. The number is very far from reasonable though.

I'd take one for free. Bolting hundreds of dildos to it and driving around would be hilarious.

I guess for free I'd take it, but I'd have to put something in large enough to see print on all 4 sides, and maybe even the roof something like "I GOT THIS FOR FREE. FUCK ELON"

Nah, just attach a few sharpies to it and let people vandalize it.
