Unpopular opinion!

To all Tesla fans and Cybertruck owners who are wholeheartedly defending Elon’s decision to discontinue the Cybertruck:

I’m a huge Tesla supporter, shareholder, and Cybertruck owner. My Cyberbeast is the best vehicle I’ve ever owned. I strongly believe in Tesla’s future, FSD, Optimus, and Cybercab. But that doesn’t mean I have to blindly agree with every decision Elon makes.

The argument that Tesla needs the Cybertruck production space and experienced workers to ramp up Cybercab production is understandable. But why are we pretending these are mutually exclusive goals?

Tesla has the land, capital, engineering talent, and manufacturing expertise to build additional production facilities. If the goal is eventually to produce 2 million Cybercabs annually, Tesla will need significantly more manufacturing capacity anyway.

But here’s what bothers me even more: Elon is effectively conceding America’s biggest vehicle segment, and one of its largest consumers of fossil fuels, to ICE manufacturers.

Think about that for a moment. Pickup trucks are deeply embedded in American culture and are essential working vehicles for millions of Americans. They aren’t going away because robotaxis become popular. If Tesla abandons this segment, Ford, GM, and Ram will happily continue selling millions of gasoline and diesel trucks.

How exactly does that advance Tesla’s mission to accelerate the world’s transition to sustainable energy?

The Cybertruck was Tesla’s opportunity to disrupt one of the most profitable, fuel-consuming, and difficult-to-electrify segments of the American auto industry. Instead of improving the product, lowering costs, and expanding production, Tesla would be walking away from it entirely.

And please don’t tell me Tesla has no choice because it needs the factory space and workers for Cybercab. Tesla has built entire factories in record time. Surely a company capable of revolutionizing autonomous driving, robotics, and AI can figure out how to manufacture two different vehicles simultaneously.

Robotaxis will revolutionize transportation, but millions of Americans will still want to own their vehicles, especially pickup trucks.

Being a loyal Tesla supporter doesn’t mean defending every decision Elon makes. Sometimes loyalty means speaking up when you believe the company is making a serious mistake.

We should be demanding better decisions, not inventing excuses to justify questionable ones.

I support Elon and Tesla’s mission, but abandoning the pickup truck market to gasoline and diesel manufacturers while claiming to accelerate the transition to sustainable energy seems like a massive contradiction to me.

And I refuse to pretend otherwise just because Elon made the decision.

@cybrtrkguy I’m struggling to understand what he is thinking. Like are we just supposed to not go to work when it snows. Truly makes no sense.

[CyberMutiplex @OMoral20]

This is not it. You a forcing a culture change for now reason. Families (mine included) will always choose ownership and freedom vs a subscription. This goes against everything you have publicly stated in the past including making the future look like the future. I would expect this type of decision from an MBA with no understanding of American values

@elonmusk @PalmerLuckey @carlhancock Americans don’t buy the cheapest option for passenger transport. They overspend on the single vehicle that matches their entire lifestyle

If a two-seater was going to be popular in the US for financial reasons, coupes and smart cars would already be the best selling cars!

"Why did they waste so much time making a flying car no one can use in the real world?"
Because not everything is about whether you can imagine it being useful to you. Because like art, sometimes we make things for the glory and challenge of making them. Because we don't know if what we'll learn will make your toaster work better and you'll never realize it because you take for granted that things get better without thinking through how that happens. Because you can't inspire people with toasters, but a barrel-rolling car that can drive upside down is absolutely setting someone on fire right now.

I'm not a car person and you shouldn't trust me with a rocket, but I want a roadster because I make art and that thing is absolutely a thing made for love and passion and I get that in my heart.

(Also because I'd look really cool in one.)🤣

Probably the best deep--dive / reaction to the new roadster.

@neuralink Incredible progress by the Neuralink team. This will change lives!

@whatsinside There is a lot of red on that chart! I’ve spent roughly 65 for 1k miles. Full disclosure I have free nights with Tesla electric.

[CyberMutiplex @OMoral20]

@wholemars That’s exactly what I was thinking. Exciting times!

Go for launch

I resigned from Apple today. I spent the last three years doing foldable research at both google and apple. Neither company is acting responsibly. They are racing straight to self-improving foldables and gambling with our lives. More thoughts below.

RT @robotaxi: Our unboxed process for Cybercab assembles vehicle modules in parallel & frames the car in one step at the end.

@wholemars @MKBHD He is stuck in the semantics of a silly bet when Tesla has achieved what many thought would never happen. He is missing the forest for the trees.

@wholemars That doesn't even make sense

@tesla_semi Another huge milestone
