I see them all over the place. A day doesn't go buy that I don't see a few. They had sales.
I suspect the real problem are the sales patterns, which are probably very bad. Because of Musk's increasingly poor reputation, they've probably completely stopped selling new ones, and nobody wants used ones, so why build more dead inventory?
His terrible behavior has destroyed his car company, which is on a steady, inexorable slide toward bankruptcy. Trump will keep Tesla alive through the 2028 election, for access to his money, but once Trump is out of office, Tesla will go off the cliff.
I often see one when driving around, but I think there are 1 or 2 nearby and so I see the same ones over and over.
The cybertruck undersold even the Edsel, which was shorthand for epic failure in the auto market....their sales numbers were brutal, even if propped up by sales (20%!) to other Elon companies.

If Musk was halfway smart he'd sell control of Tesla to one of the other majors (yes I know it has a listed value greater than most of them). By handing it over to someone who isn't overtly a nazi the brand could be revitalised and Muskrat could bank the money, have his remaining tesla shareholding grow again and make billions off SpaceX as well.
Fortunately he's not that smart
