i think they are different markets.
cyber truck is for affluent city people who probably never had or wanted a truck before but like the design.
f150 is more for normal people who actually just want a normal truck that’s electric

The design looks avante-guard from a consumer perspective, but its a result of making it more functional and easier to manufacture which is hard to argue with when your using for business even if you think its hideous. I think the f150 will compete for sure but its traditional branding and smaller bed will probably attract more consumer oriented existing pick-up owners. City people will continue to buy model Y because they have to run errands in tight spaces.
We'll see how the F150 pans out, but I'm more hesitant in Ford's ability to deliver than Tesla continuing to deliver.
Why? Does the look of the truck make it more practical? The Cybertruck does not have any paint, and can sustain far more scratch/shock that the F150.
Cybertruck seems like it would require special versions of these kind of things. One of the reasons people buy pickups is versatility, and you lose some of that with Cybertruck because of its different shape.
