The Cybertruck has already proven itself as one of the most capable, versatile vehicles Tesla has ever built—especially for people who actually use their trucks hard. I’ve put well over 130,000 miles on mine (Ultra Doom), the vast majority of it on Full Self-Driving, across remote terrain, long-haul trips, and everything in between. It has been my rolling basecamp for boondocking, off-road exploring, and cross-country adventures. When people still claim EVs can’t go far or handle real conditions, I don’t argue with spreadsheets anymore. I just tell them I drove a Cybertruck from Florida all the way to the Arctic Ocean and back. That usually ends the conversation. In 2024 I was part of the Arctic CyberTrek team with @teslatina @blueskykites and @BeardedTesla that took two Cybertrucks from Florida to Tuktoyaktuk at the end of the Dempster Highway—roughly 5,500 miles one way, 11,000 miles round-trip—with zero generators. We relied on the Supercharger network where it existed, worked with local businesses to install Tesla Level 2 wall connectors along the remote stretches so future EV travelers could make the same trip, and the trucks performed reliably the entire way. Reaching the Arctic Ocean in a stainless-steel electric pickup that many people said couldn’t do it was more than a personal milestone. It showed what the vehicle is actually capable of when pushed beyond ordinary use, and it left infrastructure behind for others. Production numbers relative to the original 250k-unit goal don’t erase the fact that the @Cybertruck sits in the top 20% of vehicles by volume in the broader market, nor do they change what it means to the owners who rely on it. Not everyone wants to hand their independence of movement over to robotaxis. There will always be people who need a vehicle that can carry gear, handle rough roads, serve as a mobile base, and go places that matter to them. The Cybertruck does that exceptionally well. Winding it down to free factory space for Cybercabs may make sense for volume plans, but it removes a unique, proven tool that has already inspired exploration, expanded EV travel into remote areas, and delivered real utility for thousands of owners. @elonmusk can figure out a way to keep it going. If someone can, I know he can, while still being able to do the other things. It shouldn’t disappear while it still has that much left to give.
