The Cybertruck seems like overcorrection in the other direction. It also smells of the CEO’s influence overriding the car industry experience of von Holzhausen.

The Cybertruck seems like overcorrection in the other direction. It also smells of the CEO’s influence overriding the car industry experience of von Holzhausen. Musk’s companies seem to do best when he’s focusing on fundraising and hiring, leaving product and operations to others.
It would be a mistake to think that Elon Musk don't have a hand in the Model S design. He's that kind of person who obsess every little details, regardless of his expertise or how ill advised his choices is.
Musk is a product person, not a fundraising and hiring person.
- turquoisevar 3y ago> He's that kind of person who obsess every little details People said the same thing about Steve Jobs. This was in part because he would even focus on design details on the inside of devices that most would never see, the iMac G3 would be the first example of this. Somehow I suspect that Jobs would have an aneurism if he’d be heading Tesla and saw the paneling issues and the welds his cars would be delivered with. Perhaps Musk should do some more obsessing.
