as in parts sourced in the US, the ford f150 is 75% made in north America, so probably not.

oh the f-150 was reportedly 90% usa parts in recent years. huh.

There's a bunch of cars with a lot of domestically made parts around that same percentage.

it doesn't look like there are very good analyses specifying the difference between manufactured in and assembled in the USA, and Tesla is using their own definitions to measure that anyway.

so between a bunch of other cars having the same or higher "usa-sourced" parts and there being no clear definition for that term, it doesn't seem likely that any Tesla vehicle can realistically claim that title.

It's basically matching other vehicles in the same class, if anything.

The cybertruck isn't even on this american-made list, but a Honda vehicle is so...

I don’t have an answer to your specific question but I believe that, years ago, most of the cars built in the US were from foreign automakers.

This was because with import taxes and tariffs it was cheaper to build the cars here to avoid those than to build elsewhere and import the vehicles.

I doubt it. Ford and Rivian are also both manufacturered in the US, with many of the parts being sourced from here too.

Anything related to Elongated Muskrat is likely propaganda from one end or the other. Don’t let the most punchable and shockingly unmurdered asshole in modern history occupy your brain. Lizzy Wizzy was right in offing him vicariously.

Yes, but not in the way you mean.

The cybertruck is the most American truck because it was created by a narcissistic, political demagogue and built by underpaid, overworked, non-union workers in grueling conditions. The design is laughable and the functionality exists only in marketing material. The vehicle is manufactured as a single model and "optional" features are toggled on or off if the owner buys the upgrades or displeases Musk.

The cybertruck is the ultimate in performative, conspicuous consumption and reality-blind design. What's more American than that?

Its not even close to American. It's made like shit. At least Fords, Chevys and Dodges can haul shit. I have a Ford Super Duty that my guys use regularly and it never has issues. My work truck is a Silverado. Thing always starts.

Elon has a piss poor design and not even a truck. It's coke filled nightmare. It's an insult to other car manufacturers to compare it to them.

No

My Toyota truck in more American than the cyberturd by Frigidaire

This article is from January and a quick search didn't yield anything newer.

The Cybertruck isn't instead on the "2024 American Made index," so we probably can only go on whatever Tesla is claiming at the moment, though it does seem likely that it will be at or near the top of the ranking for most American trucks of next year's list.

not a chance lol

• Overpriced
• Unnecessary
• Bad quality
• Not allowed in germany due to health/security concerns
• Protects against bullets, in case you bring your kids to school
