Nobody would say "I wouldn't buy a Cybertruck, they're so cheap", if they did, you'd probably go "Haha they're like 6 figures new!", thinking the person assumed that because Teslas look cheap they actually are.
They’re not like six figures new, that was basically tesla advertising to make them seem more expensive than they actually are (for conspicuous consumption purposes). Most of the models actually purchased are around $60K
You wouldn't say that, this is true.
But you could call it a cheap piece of shit when it rusts and the panels never align.
