> 40k truck is still a huge luxury don't get me wrong)

I don’t think you have priced trucks in awhile. You can buy a 60k Jeep truck, an 85k RAM 2500, a 95k GMC Sierra ATR4 (or whatever), a 65k Bison Colorado, etc etc. Trucks got expensive. I think you price new 40k trucks you’re going to be looking at Tacomas.

40k for a specialty electric truck is absolutely too good to be true, and I promise you it won’t happen like that.

All that said, that Tesla truck isn’t even remotely real. There is almost no way it passes crash testing with 1/8th stainless steel panels as is, let alone European homologation requirements, it has no mirrors or wipers. It’s all for show right now so pardon me while I don’t join in the hyper parade.

You're not wrong, but I'm considering it a luxury outside the real of automotive. I've been working full time as software developer for 3 years and I cannot afford a Cybertruck. Not even close lol.


You just need to do what everyone else does and stop doing the math, just go in to debt! (Don’t do that)
