      You could definitely sell those for more then $0. The batteries alone aren’t cheap.

        So somewhere inbetween as the article says “more than 10,000 units” and “$800m” so they appear to be valuing them at ~$80k/unit which is ridiculously optimistic.

        My guess is closer to 1/3rd of that value but nobody likes to lose half a billion in the blink of an eye

    They are really going to have to slash prices to move those trucks. 50%,60%75%? Even then will anyone want them?

    I want to drive one into a brick wall. Not with me in it or anything. I figure I could do it just by setting it to auto-drive into a painting of a tunnel Looney Tunes style.

    $800 Million Worth of Cybertrucks

    Cybertrucks aren’t worth the glass of the molotovs that ignite them.

    Worth and cost are not synonyms.

      It’s funny. They target people who burned the trucks, but insurance claims are probably their best chance to get paid for the trucks.

    Actually saw a Tesla with a Trump/Vance sticker on it today. I was already at 92% hate for Tesla. Thanks for making that 100% today stranger.

      This photo is taken out of context, though. I mean, he slapped his chest before the salute, and he did it twice in a row… Ah shit nevermind, he’s a Nazi.

      They tried that in Canada and got caught. They’ll get a free handy for doing it in the US under Tump though.

        That’s what Trump’s big legal battle with New York was about - lying about the value of a penthouse or something.

        So much of these “rich” fuckers wealth is just bullshit on paper.

    Is that price at full retail price or cost of parts. Either way, sounds like someone misjudged the market by a lot and needs to be ejected from their CEO role.
