I’d had an uneasy feeling about Musk for a while when he showcased the cyber truck. The minute I saw it I thought “oh no, he’s stopped listening to the people around him.” Everything since has been an outgrowth of that.
That was the first moment of "who is he aiming this at?" for me. It won't sell to people who cosplay as farmers/construction workers b/c it doesn't look right. The liberals don't want a truth. So it's a truck aimed at nerd Musk fans.
He should have made an EV version of the Ford Ranger/Mazda 2000. Burnaby still has a fleet of Ford Rangers because there is nothing on the market to replace them with. Charge overnight? No problem for the City of Bby. Body on frame so putting a battery in is easy. Probably could have bought tooling
