Tesla Can't Find Legal Places to Store All Its Unsold Cybertrucks
Tesla is seriously struggling to find enough room for all of its unsold Cybertrucks. In a particularly dramatic example, the increasingly unpopular pickups have been piling up in the parking lot of a shuttered Bed Bath & Beyond store in a Detroit suburb shopping center, Automotive News reports, in a violation of local code. The landlord was notified that the vehicle storage was not "permitted," and local officials have started the "enforcement process," per Automotive News. It's yet another sign that Tesla's Cybertruck has been a major flop. Earlier this month, Electrek reported that Tesla had amassed over 10,000 units worth a staggering $800 million of unsold Cybertruck inventory. The EV maker has also reportedly slowed down production and moved workers from the line entirely at its manufacturing facility in Texas, indicating massively waning demand and growing anti-Tesla sentiment. What to do with all of these unsold Cybertrucks has seemingly become a major issue. A video that went viral on Instagram last week showed rows of the stainless steel-clad vehicles sitting in the otherwise deserted parking lot. "Look at what you're missing," a person in the video joked. "Need a Cybertruck? We got you." Tesla's sales have fallen off a cliff worldwide, largely a result of backlash against Musk's embrace of far-right idealism and a surge in cheaper — and often better — alternatives, particularly from China. The Cybertruck has become the poster child of the burgeoning anti-Tesla movement, resulting in frequent vandalism and outright mockery. And top top it all off, used Cybertruck prices are cratering, making it an extremely costly and unwise investment.

Surplus Teslas Flood Parking Lot in Detroit Suburb
In the Detroit suburb of Farmington Hills, a vacant Bed Bath & Beyond parking lot has quietly transformed into a holding zone for dozens of unsold Tesla vehicles, mostly Cybertrucks. The unusual sight caught local attention when an Instagram video surfaced showing unregistered EVs sprawled across the asphalt. Since then, the number of Teslas has only grown, drawing concern from city officials. While the vehicles aren't abandoned, city leaders say they shouldn't be there. "Storage of vehicles is not a permitted use" of the land, Farmington Hills' director of planning and community development said in a statement. The city has notified the landlord and is pursuing enforcement, though it admits the process takes time. The swelling number of Cybertrucks parked on the lot is indicative of bigger problems at the electric vehicle maker. Tesla's angular, stainless steel pickup was once the most popular electric truck in the country, but sales are slipping fast. In the first quarter of this year, Tesla delivered only 6,400 to 7,100 Cybertrucks - a sharp drop from about 13,000 in the previous quarter. While some seasonal decline is expected after Q4, the plunge was steep enough for Ford's F-150 Lightning to reclaim the title of best-selling electric pickup. Tesla has a long history of using unconventional overflow lots. It has parked surplus vehicles in everything from mall lots to vacant land near its showrooms. That's likely the case here, as the company opened a nearby store just a mile away late last year in a former Barnes & Noble. The store is one of only a few in Michigan, where Tesla previously faced legal barriers to direct-to-consumer sales. A 2016 lawsuit helped overturn that ban. While Tesla's ability to sell directly to consumers in Michigan marks a big shift, the company is now facing a more localized challenge: what to do with a growing fleet of unsold trucks. The suburban sprawl of unclaimed Cybertrucks may be a symptom of waning interest or overproduction, but to Farmington Hills officials, it's a code violation either way. Whether Tesla will find a new place to store its excess inventory or manage to sell off the lot full of Cybertrucks remains to be seen. Tesla's overflow of unsold Cybertrucks into a suburban Detroit parking lot is more than just an eyesore - it's a snapshot of the company's growing pains. As demand shifts and logistics get messier, even the most disruptive automakers have to play by local rules. Farmington Hills may just want its lot back, but the scene also raises bigger questions about how Tesla will manage its supply, demand, and reputation as it enters a more competitive and less forgiving EV market.
