Summary
The Tesla Cybertruck is in crisis. The automaker is still sitting on a ton of old inventory, which it is now heavily discounting, and it is throttling down production.
Tesla is expected to currently be selling the Cybertruck at a rate of about 25,000 units a year – a tenth of what Musk predicted.
Tesla began the second quarter with 2,400 Cybertrucks in inventory, valued at over $200 million. Tesla is now offering deeper discounts on the new inventory of Cybertrucks.
The automaker has reduced its Cybertruck production teams and now operates at a fraction of its original capacity.
The Cybertruck’s stainless steel body is susceptible to corrosion from acidic substances, including vinegar. Tesla’s own guidance advises against using acidic liquids or materials, including vinegar, on the vehicle’s exterior.

Now I’m conflicted about that news article I saw about Trump letting those 70 coal plants operate with emissions unchecked, because now the acid rain they cause will degrade the trucks faster.
