Tesla made good cars before. It is reasonable to assume that they would continue to do that. The people that have a cyberteuck today are people that paid for it years ago, so they wouldn't have known how shitty it actually turned out to be.

I can't account for Tesla's continuing and worsenin quality control though as well as their cost saving measures that make the cars less safe. I don't know how you see those trends and not cancel your pre order.

so they wouldn’t have known how shitty it actually turned out to be.

Hard disagree here. A) I knew from the first moment they showed a picture of it how bad it would be. You could tell it was a car a 7 year old would design and have all the faults that come with that. B) Those people have had years to cancel those deposits, during which we've seen how shitty it was going to be.
