The truck that was supposed to revolutionize everything is flopping fast.

The hype is dead. The Tesla Cybertruck, once billed as the future of electric vehicles, is now looking like a commercial bust.

In the second quarter of 2025, Tesla sold just 4,306 Cybertrucks, down a staggering 50.8% from the 8,755 units it delivered during the same period last year, according to new data from Kelley Blue Book. This plunge is a signal that America’s most hyped truck may already be out of gas.

      Walser said that all the cars retained their original PRV V-6s

      I had to look up a sand rail chasis. I’m more of a machine guy than a car guy. Totally a dune buggy pipe frame with integral roll cage.

      I guess they did body swaps when doing offroad. Which totally makes sense. Not sure if the DeLorean is a sports car or a sedan, but the frame wasn’t built for Hollywood stunts.
