Of course other much better informed people have said it before. Show what? What happens if they try manufacturing it at scale and every third car needs to be sent back due to defects?

Then again considering how tasteless a person needs to be to buy that thing might they won't mind a rough edge or two.

The nice thing, is we won't have to wait that long to see how this comment ages.

My prediction, over the next 2 years: There are going to be some rough patches to iron out, just like Model X. Then things are going to improve going forward. Eventually, production will be in excess of 100k/year. Every Cybertruck built will be sold.

We'll see who gets it right.

> Model X

Is an actually relatively well designed and practical car.
