I misread it as NYC to LA at first (like an overnight cross-continent HSR trip) because there was just no way it would take the whole night to go from SF to LA right??

The Cybertruck is just what's in vogue right now. If you were to look outside of the Hexbear bubble, most people on the street actually think the Cybertruck looks super cool and expensive.

Its popularity is probably not going to last. The PT Cruiser was seen the same way when it first came out, but once there were a million of them on the road, it became positively uncool.

In North America, only Teslas are viable if you're ever going to leave your city, because Teslas have the Tesla Supercharger network while other EVs have to deal with the hell that is Electrify America.

In other words: the Tesla Supercharger network is the killer feature of Teslas.

Note that this is changing as other auto manufacturers are adopting Tesla's formerly proprietary NACS (SAE J3400) charging standard, opening up the Tesla Supercharger network to non-Tesla EVs.
