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.
I didn’t know that about the Volvo, that’s pretty funny. Means it was cheaper and easier to do a body swap than try and keep one properly running. Maybe it was just that hard to get parts.

A bit more info.
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.
