Why would someone own 8 vehicles?

Car collectors exist, and I have the impression quite a few of them are among the Cybertruck's early adopters.

    Honestly, a car collector is probably the best kind of person to have one I'd bet, given that they now exist out there. They don't seem terribly safe for pedestrians and others to have around, so it they're going to be out there in individuals hands, them being kept parked in some guys garage as some weird curiosity vehicle of the 2020s is probably better than being driven around on the daily as a pointy oversized commute vehicle
