Not the Cybertruck story, but perhaps more important.

The Justice Department has been probing Tesla for their exaggerated range claims, and suddenly Tesla has decided to reduce their estimates on these already-released cars.

Except Tesla literally lies to you with the range estimates. Internal documents show that the range estimates are false, and Tesla staff KNOWS its false.

EDIT: The Cybertruck range estimates are proof of this lying culture. Cybertruck is NO WHERE close to the estimates.

Hell, if you look at it's estimate based on the last 30 miles of consumption, you can see just how vastly different it is from the actual range estimate displayed on either the charge level or the trip.
