But the country boys in my neck of the woods who run American and Dixie Flags out of the stake holes are not going to buy this truck. All and all out of the approximately 3 million light-duty truck sales per year, I'm not seeing a disruptive change with the cybertruck (stupid name BTW). Honda should be worried, not Ford/Chevy/Dodge.

Trucks are a status symbol for many where I’m from. The Cybertruck won’t win over most of the old Ford/Chevy/Ram owners but it may be an entry point for some younger people, especially those in the city.

On a side note, the Cybertruck will be pretty sick off-road. Instant torque, nothing in the underside to drag, great approach/break over/departure angles...
