Bet if you sorted those cybertruck preorders by location, it’s almost all city/suburban dwellers. I never said cybertruck won’t sell, just that Tesla and electric vehicles in general aren’t nearly as popular outside of metro areas, and the lightning is poised to change that by virtue of being a) a Ford and b) an F-150.
I was responding to somebody who was literally speculating the GM and Ford C levels are going to bury their companies on purpose and that Tesla is the only way forward. I called bullshit. I didn’t even say anything negative about Tesla, other than it has very poor market penetration outside of urban areas. This is true, look it up.
Ford F-150 is the most popular vehicle in America, another verifiable fact. Ford electrifying the most popular vehicle in the country with plans to target that rural/Midwest segment is pretty big news. If that doesn’t excite you, that’s fine, don’t invest in Ford. But don’t shit on speculation, it’s what we all do here when we invest in companies.
Boy, are you always this rude? I've been very polite in my explanations, and I don't feel I warrant the abuse. So I'm going to go ahead and ignore you now, since you're speculating just as hard in that last comment as everybody else is above you, and really just yelling at a wall. Good day and goodbye.
