I think Rivian has delivered something like 60 trucks.

The problem with the Cybertruck as shown is it was running 35" mud tires more aggressive than the Raptor wears and that's what takes it down to it's terrible MPG, a 20% penalty over a standard 3.5 F150 4x4. The 37" tire Rapor loses 2 more mpg highway over the 35" Raptor. If the Cybertruck try's to play that game it's going to never get the 500 mile range they were spinning.

These guys got .48 cd for the Cybertruck. Still without mirrors or wipers which it will have. https://airshaper.com/cases/tesla-cy...k-aerodynamics
