Tesla’s Cybertruck, once touted as “the World’s Toughest Truck,” now seems to be gathering rust in inventories across major U.S. metropolitan areas.

A recent count reveals that within 25 miles of some of the top 25 most populous zip codes, a staggering 1,246 Cybertrucks remain in unsold inventory. The total count nationwide of Cybertrucks waiting on a buyer is likely much higher, as these 25 mile segments only account for about half of the US population.

If each Cybertruck sells at the minimum price of $79,990, that’s about $100 million worth of what Ask Car Guys voted overwhelmingly for the Worst Truck Ever Made.

Here’s the data!

    I mean, you’re really just putting value on your distaste of musk. For a 40-60k payoff you can do business with him.

      Given the higher probability of fatality driving it than another vehicle in its class, I still wouldn’t get one for $40K. I value my life a lot more than that.

      Yea I’m putting a value on my distain but you seem to be misunderstanding the math. If they sell the truck for $80k it likely costs them $60k++ to make. If I buy it for $40k I’m taking $20k away from their coffers. This is all totally made up numbers, I dont work there and know their bottom line. But at the end of the day, at some point SOMEONE is going to give them some amount for the truck. I would sleep fine knowing I took money from the company rather than added to it.
