At last night's Cyber Rodeo, Musk made a big splash at the company's brand new Gigafactory in Texas.

His loyal fans were immediately ready to draw comparisons to Tony Stark from Iron Man, and Musk did everything he could to play into that narrative.

Who knows if the billionaire CEO was trying to make a statement or if he just wanted to make a statement with his black cowboy hat and sunglasses.

There’s Always Next Year

The opening of another massive factory is a reason to celebrate, but people were less optimistic about Cybertruck news.

The truck will roll off the lot at the Texas facility no sooner than next year, according to Musk.

Fans have been waiting for the Cybertruck. The brutalist pickup has been pushed back several times. The release was originally slated for late 2021.

We will believe it when we see it, as the company's massive Semi truck and speedy Roadster are also scheduled to enter production next year.

The Texas Cyber Rodeo featured updated Cybertruck and Futuristic Robotaxi.

There is a video of a Cybertruck being mocked for an Enormous Windshield wiper.
