Sorry, but every time I read news about the Cybertruck I have to think of the Simpsons Canyonero song:

Can you name the truck that's been recalled twelve times, Costs less each month 'cause nobody's buying mine?

Cybertruck! Cybertruck!

(Whip crack!)

Her trim falls off when you drive through rain, The steering locks up on the highway lane!

Cybertruck! Cybertruck!

Top of the line in utility trucks! Started at a hundred, now they're slashing bucks!

She's got a price that drops faster than her resale value, And a windshield wiper motor that'll surely fail you!

Cybertruck! Cybertruck!

(Whip crack!)

Twelve recalls in a single year! Drive-by-wire that fills your heart with fear!

The accelerator pedal pops right off the floor, But Elon says it's you who doesn't love her more!

Cybertruck!

She rusts if you look at her wrong in the dew, The tonneau cover works... for a week or two!

She's marked down like a Kmart blue-light special now, A stainless steel disaster and a broken vow!

Cybertruck! Cybertruck!

(Whip crack!)

Whoaaa, Cybertruck!

CYBERTRUCK!

This is amazing. I don't know if you stole it or you're a poetic genius, but rest assured that I'm stealing it.
I asked Claude Opus 4.6 to take the Canyonero lyrics and mix it with all the controversies and this one in particular.

Spread the love!

I know the Canyonero bit, but repurposing it to Cybertruck is high art.
Massively underrated post. To the 500ms drive-by voters, look at it closely, it's not just a copy/paste from the Simpsons.
Brilliant! LOL
Thanks! I wish I could claim credit to the lyrics, it was just created by Claude Opus. I think I should refine it some more, I think it can be done way better.
