- Fans see the decision as a sign of Tesla’s shift towards autonomy.

## Summary

Tesla’s decision to discontinue the Cybertruck has left some of its most committed owners feeling disappointed and betrayed, with many seeking answers from Elon Musk. Their reaction matters because the vehicle’s end has become a point of criticism for Tesla’s direction as it shifts its focus towards autonomous vehicles and AI.

Owners are worried about pending orders, future parts and servicing, and whether the truck will be supported over time; Musk has said Tesla will have to return deposits to many customers. Michael Goldman, who runs a Facebook group with more than 82,000 members, had considered buying a second Cybertruck but changed his mind after its price rose by about $8,000. Tesla enthusiasts including Troy Meekhof argue that the company failed to make the truck succeed and question its move towards autonomous driving.
