Musk deliberately undermined what people were wanting, this is his result.

That may be, but there a bunch of them on the road where we live in SoCal. We can hardly go to the store or out to eat without seeing at least two or three Cybertrucks, in all sorts of colors or designs.

Count how many you see in 10 years. Early sales did well. They unloaded all they could onto SpaceX, but that's like trying to put band aid on somebody that just got hit by a cybertruck going 100.

The Las Vegas underground transit loop was an unmitigated disaster as well.

When one goes by I have the same reaction...it is more ugly than anything, and there is nothing that can be done to make it anything but a political statement...That Musk at times is an idiot.
