minus-squarehark@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·2 days agoThey had a ridiculous number of people putting in a deposit to reserve one, about two million reservations according to this: https://insideevs.com/news/687142/tesla-cybertruck-2-million-reservations-crowdsourced-data/ I guess they came to their senses.
minus-squareJeremyHuntQW12@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·2 days agoThat’s 80,000 vehicles. The production capacity is 250k. Ford sold 460,000 F-150s last year. Chrysler had an inventory of over 1 million last year, they’ve ran through that by March.
minus-squarePraiseTheSoup@lemm.eelinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·2 days ago Chrysler had an inventory of over 1 million last year, they’ve ran through that by March.
