Cybertrucks
Except it didn't really sound promising
I'd say Tesla in general became a disappointment. The Cybertruck was just the blister on top.
I wish other used EVs were anywhere close to teslas... I ended up buying Model 3 as everything else fell flat on its face. The worst one was the "Mustang". There sadly is no alternative that's feasible to me. I took a loan for 15k and got 2021 plate model 3 with okay miles. Nothing else was anywhere near it and the thing I has been stellar. And trust me, I have tried A LOT of EVs as my diesel costs pay for my tesla. It's as close to " free" for my case as I can get.
I'm sorry to hear that, but I take some solace and knowing that Elon had minimal input with the original vehicles, and they were modeled after something that was designed by other companies.
My solice is the used car value doesn't go back to him and I contribute to these cars being cheaper.
