I dont believe for a second that any engineer in Tesla was opposed to this design. Everyone wanted a taste of daddy Tesla after that cybertruck was revealed. I know its en vogue to shit on Elon now in 2023 but 2020/2021 everyone was dick riding the biggest chad on earth.
Gross. Absolutely not. Just because some people failed to grasp that every billionaire sucks donkey dick, doesn't mean everyone did.
You are either 15 or you are lying to yourself
I'm 30, and I'm quick to judge. For example, your hindsight sucks as much as your judge of character.
I see you like to judge books by their cover. I also judge and i think you are a liar. So if you are a liar then you must think my hindsight and judge of character is amazing right. I know im awesome 💋
Come on, even Tesla fanboys though it was a joke and were waiting for Elon to roll out the real truck. About five people liked that truck back then.
I’ll be perfectly honest with you. I have never liked the Cybertruck. It looked ridiculous when it came out and there were various online articles that agreed with this at the time. Though I will grant you that there were also a lot of people on the Elon bandwagon who thought it was awesome. One of my best friends actually put down the deposit for one and he and I had a lively debate about it. It was a controversial thing from day 1. And looking back now, this might have been my first clue that Elon was headed off the deep end.
Yeah what I meant was engineers that were at tesla were all on board. These guys work shit hours for shit pay just so they can have Tesla on the CV. This was even more competitive 2 years ago when Tesla was stonks and every word Elon said was cherished. I would agree I was on board with Tesla and I didnt like the cyber truck but im not a Tesla engineer.
