anyone else curious why there have been so few caught in the wild?.
the clickdriven drone bros are all over the mothership so where they be?

if they are actually gonna be delivered in a couple months, I thought surely they would be seen all over the roads by now yet we’ve had what, 10 videos?

seems odd to me
ive been dropping in daily to see em and I want my entertainment ?

I wouldn't read to much into it. There were previous dry spells for sightings over the past four years or more too. It's possible they are tweaking the prototypes with last minute improvements or features in preparation for a final updated reveal, and they don't want those changes to be seen until then.

If deliveries are planned to start this year, then it's obvious (to me anyway) that they'll do another final reveal shortly before or right when those deliveries are set to begin. So if I were Tesla I'd avoid putting outdated prototypes on the street while in the home stretch to reveal or first deliveries.

Here's a fake rendering sighting for you though (earlier prototype, no side mirrors):

Because general production hasn't started yet? It's only June 13th.
If it is true that production will actually start in July then the dearth of sightings may will be a sign that Tesla is gearing up for production. I am sure that we are all scanning every source looking for updates. I know that I am. And there is 'nothing'. Its going to be a tough couple of weeks if this is true.

There will have to be release candidates going through testing that will be out on the streets, test tracks, etc. before the delivery event. If that event is still slated for the end of September or early October, and if Tesla revs up the production line in July, there is plenty of time to see release candidates on the road in July, August, and September. Tesla has probably gotten as much information as they can from the alpha and beta prototypes, as you say.

You could say the same about the Chevy Silverado

I didn't see a thread with these pics from yesterday yet but if you search twitter for "cybertruck", there are usually a few things that don't make it to the forum.

Side Note: These could be AI generated but if they are, the quality is amazing. They seem pretty real from a quick glance.
