Updated: 1,240+ Cybertrucks Sit in Tesla Inventory... And That's Just in the Top 25 Metros

fuelarc.com Updated: 1,240+ Cybertrucks Sit in Tesla Inventory... And That's Just in the Top 25 Metros - FuelArc News

Update: We had such a good time counting the first 10 metros, we expanded our Cybertruck inventory lot census to 25 metros, current as of March 5th 2025. That brought the total number of inventoried Cybertrucks from 450+ to 1,240+. Have fun! Tesla’s Cybertruck, once touted as “the World’s Toughest T...

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!

You couldn't pay me to drive one of those shit boxes. My kid's baseball coach drives one n it's all tricked out to advertise his company. I low key wanna ask him if he's thinking about taking the ads off it, but I don't know him well enough, and I get the feeling he's one of those people, and if that's the case, I hope he loses business driving around with his company advertising essentially right next to a large swastica.
- I won't say "you couldn't pay me to drive one", but only because I'm honest enough with myself to admit that there is absolutely an amount that someone could pay me to drive one around. The number is very far from reasonable though.
  
  I'd take one for free. Bolting hundreds of dildos to it and driving around would be hilarious.

I am shocked every time I see someone driving that trash. Even ignoring how horrible musk is, the vehicle itself is so incredibly stupid. Their stock dropped when they first unveiled it in a rare instance of the market treating tesla stock rationally.
- A clowny, amateurish effort. Deserving of twice the mockery it receives, and it gets a LOT of mockery. I'm a comedian and I hardly need to think, the Cybertruck comedy writes itself.
  The fact that it made production at all shows major issues in Tesla's corporate decision-making process that a rationally administered board would take steps to address.

Apart from being a Muskmobile it just looks hideous. People aren't blind Elon.
- "You're telling me there's no market for an ugly $130,000 pickup truck that randomly explodes?" - the world's most knowledgeable manufacturer*
  *self-proclaimed, YMMV.
- I'll probably get shit for it, but I dig the look.
  I would never buy a Tesla for numerous reasons, mostly because they are the Apple of car companys, which is anti-consumer and anti-repair, although Musk owning it is a big negative as well.
  
  No worries.
  Honestly, I ALSO dig bold design decisions. People hate the Subaru Baja. Puts a smile on my face every time I see one, it's a wacky little truck that makes very little sense.
  The Cybertruck... it's almost hard to explain why it gets such an intense reaction. It's Elon. It's the dangerous design (like, the fires are absurd for any vehicles built in the 21st century). It's how many promises fell through, like the bullet-proof windows not actually being bullet-proof, the "exoskeleton" is literally held on by glue, it's a lousy unibody truck by any measure. Oh and it costs a bazillion dollars.
  Maybe most of all, it's the Cybertruck fans. They live in some alternate reality where all that stuff just isn't true. To them, it is a badass truck, it is bullet-proof, not only is it not a lousy vehicle, it's the best vehicle ever made. Forget the observable reality of how unpopular it is, they swear it will sell more than the F-150 (probably because Elon said it would). That really makes it impossible for me to like, I don't like the way drinking THAT flavor of Kool Aid tastes.
  
  Out of curiosity, have you caught a glimpse of one in-person yet? IMO they look way more tacky up close
  
  I'll probably get shit for it, but I dig the look.
  If the truck was .75 sized like a Chevy Colorado, then maybe. Instead it is 1.25 sized. It will not fit a regular one car garage and it is as wide as a dualie truck.
  Still, it is a Swasticar and Elon, Tesla, and anyone buying a Tesla in 2025 can get fucked.
- Agreed. Even if it wasn't a swasticar I STILL wouldn't drive this uglymobile.

Saw one in a neighborhood full of Priuses and EVs. Imagine the block party conversations.

I'd buy one for $40k if it was brand new and I knew I robbed Tesla substantially below their margin mark. If I was taking money from Tesla count me in.
- It's more like you'd be letting them cut their losses. $40k > $0
  
  I’d buy one for $40K if they gave me $80K and I got to set it on fire and roll it into Twitter HQ.
  
  It's a fair point but you realize that's not rational right? The truck, though stupid, has some monetary value. If the price gets low enough people who loathe Musk will still buy it. I'm in that camp. I realize that's not a popular stance in the pitchfork crowd but I'm a practical hater.
