An average person has no use for a truck that costs more than twice what an average person makes in a year and half or more what an average person spends on an average house

it's a durable electric truck, plenty of people have use for such a thing - it's also under $100,000 so nowhere near what a house costs? maybe in the slums

minimum wage where I live, assuming 40 hours, is over $30,000/year - which is certainly less than half the cost of a cybertruck, but minimum wage isn't the "average person" - obviously this varies by state, and in some states what you said will be true
