So not one soul here got their hands on one?
What happened to this delivery event I thought I'd see em on the road this week so far nothing.

I think the delivery event was a bit of a misnomer and more like a publicity stunt than a general release. As far as I can tell they just gave out about a dozen or so to some select 'buyers' and even they were probably affiliated with Tesla or the media or something so I doubt you'll see them driving around unless you live in Texas and happen to have some luck. I haven't seen anything to confirm that they're actually been given to people on a wider release yet.

I am in Texas . Have never seen one.
You think a smart PR move would be to give them to people who would advertise for you?
Especially considering they don't market!
I feel like they cybertruck is holding some customers emotionally hostage ...this thing was supposed to be out already!

There's seemingly been very few delivered outside of the release event so you're probably unlikely to spot one. Plenty of youtube reviewers seem to have had access to them but not sure even the big ones have their own. I just don't think the thing is fully ready yet or they certainly aren't producing them in any substantial volume.

I think that's exactly what they did. I barely use youtube but my feed is full of cybertruck "reviews", not sure why, maybe I accidentally googled it from my throwaway android account. This "influencer" shit after the fake "delivery event" is probably their strategy in selling the truck that's 3 years late at twice the promised price.

Yeah, definitely probably more of an event to please shareholders and calm any worries people may have about the truck but I still think this is likely a long way away of being release properly to the masses. Even Tesla has put a date of 2025 for the entry level cybertruck.
