Buying a TESLA CYBERTRUCK with BITCOIN

[OgNasty]

Another sign of the inevitable… This has been leaked to social media as the world is anxiously awaiting any further news about Tesla’s greatest product ever.



It’s looking a lot like the event could happen as early as next month, but I wouldn’t be surprised if it were in November either. One thing is for sure though, it is happening and it is happening soon.

Someone posted this picture online showing a Cybertruck Release Candidate with a built in Starlink antenna. No idea of this will be an accessory that you can choose or not, but it’s pretty cool to think that you can get satellite internet on these bad boys. Hopefully we’ll get a look at what options are available before the end of the year.

Early reports are that the first Cybertruck has officially been sold at auction for $400,000. The Cybertruck was being auctioned off by the Petersen Museum. You can see some footage of the auction that has been posted on X by user @greggertruck by following the link I’ve posted below:

Elon Musk decided it would be a good idea to do a live fire test on the Cybertruck, so he emptied a drum from a Tommy gun into the side of it as a test supposedly if tweets are to be believed. He also confirmed that not a single bullet made it into the cabin. Then what did they do? They drove the Cybertruck around town to show it off.

Apart from the fact that it's bullet proof, I saw one Tesla drive paste me last night, I looked through the window and it's sophisticated interior technology blew me off.

And then security is guaranteed when you're in a cyber truck, incase you have attackers with assault riffles, I don't know if snipers will make it through but from the tweets, it seems safe enough from raffles.

My band just rehearsed my new new song "Full Musk"... Its sounding good... not sure about the Cybertruck though, LOL

Yeah, I used to be a huge Musk fanboy back in the day. Almost pulled the trigger on a Model 3.
So glad I came to my senses.

So you are gonna be driving this weird looking thing around, daring folks to take a tommy gun to it? Hey, whatever floats your boat man....

I guess it’s in my personality. If you’re familiar with my posts here you’re likely aware that I am not one to play it safe or hide. If someone shoots a gun at me while I’m driving this thing, they’d better hope they can accelerate faster than 0-60 in 2.9 seconds or they will become a hood ornament and I’ll get to be on the news.

Cybertruck production has officially started today. The first set of configuration invites just went out a few minutes ago. Huge news. The greatest civilian vehicle ever created is real and it’s on the way to customers.

Looks like Tesla is taking steps to stop price gouging by resellers. I love to see it. Hopefully this cuts down on preorders from people who just wanted to make a quick buck. The link is below to read the full agreement but the summary is that you cannot resell your Cybertruck within the first year of owning it and if you do you may be charged a $50,000 fine and never get to buy another Tesla product.

Oh no! Tesla appears to have removed all language in the agreement saying that you can’t resell your Cybertruck within a year or face a $50,000 fine. Thats sort of a bummer to me. I was really hoping this would cause some cancellations of preorders ahead of me in line. Link to the new full agreement below.

On a limited production thing like the Ford GT you could get away with something like that. With a 'mass production' vehicle it's more difficult. Tesla had the 'get out of it' clause in the original contract that if you could show reason why you should be able to sell then they would let you after certain conditions were met.

But if other things happened. i.e. you loose your job and can't pay the loan and they don't let you get rid of it. Then you just keep driving it and not paying for it until they can repo it. Which can take a very long time and you were abusing the shit out of it the entire time. So they now have a car that has had been abused that they have to sell again.

Not to mention, in some states it's flat out not permitted to block the resale of motor vehicles to others. I know Nevada and New Jersey both *had* laws like that on the books, no idea if they still exist.
Short Version: Casinos were running car promos back then and if you didn't want the car, casinos were only offering about 65% OR LESS of the value of the car in cash. So people took the car and flipped it. Some casinos didn't like that so they put in wording to not allow the transfer for a certain amount of time. And then the lawyers came, then the states just put it in the FU they can sell it law because the better casinos were giving close the ACV of the car and were complaining that the ones being scummy about that were making all casinos look bad.

This goes back to the 80s. Was a big stink about it back then when the Corvette C4 came out and had a MSRP in the mid $20k range. There were a lot of casino promos with them and some casinos were giving something like $15000 in cash if you didn't take the car. Since you could take it and sell it for more then MSRP not allowing sales for a certain period of time was just bad optics. Not to mention the flip side, of you do owe taxes on the full MSRP next tax day, so you could take the car, drive it for a while and then sell it comes April 15th. But, that didn't work if you could not sell the car. It was just a mess all around.

I was in high school back then and a major gear-head, it was a big thing for a while if you were paying attention. If you didn't gamble or like cars you probably never heard about it. But, I can see the laws or variations of them still sitting there. If they can be enforced with a purchase instead of a giveaway or as a contract between the manufacturer and someone instead of a 3rd party who knows. I can see a bunch of lawyers just pointed out that it's just not worth dealing with it.

^ I’m sure the bad press and instant reaction from people was enough for Tesla to change their tune in order to avoid damaging their brand. I’ve heard that other carmakers like Rivian have done the same thing in the past though. Admittedly, I’m only caring about myself when I have my opinion on the matter. Whatever Elon or Tesla does to scare away preorders ahead of me in line, I’m all for it. I hope reports come out saying the Cybertruck explodes when you unlock the door.

[suchmoon]

LOL there are no "preorders", the $100 deposit means jack shit, especially since most of those "buyers" likely put it down on a $40k truck, which will never happen. Tesla will make top trim Lambo-priced version first and will try to push it to everyone regardless of their position in the queue or even without a deposit. The $50k penalty nonsense is just a clunky PR play trying to make it look like there is going to be a reseller stampede, and to get some more free publicity.

Some cool photos of the Cybertruck being submerged in water for leak testing. Imagine any other car company doing this with one of their vehicles…

Well, i dont really like the design and other things about this cybertruck, but yes in fact this is a very cool and useful feature.

I want to see the real comments made by the owners after sometime with this trucks, and how they aging.

[OgNasty]

Somebody decided to take their Cybertruck for a swim on the beach.

As we get closer to the Cybertruck delivery event this week, there’s been video released this week showing a feature I was hoping the Cybertruck would have. “Raise to start” lets you lower your Cybertruck when you turn it off and then it lifts up the suspension when you start it. Sort of like an old low rider. Only a couple more days until we get the full unveil.
