Considering the pickup EV has been an enormous commercial flop, only selling barely a fraction of Musk’s promised 250,000 to 500,000 Cybertrucks a year, there’s a good chance Tesla is using the mercurial CEO’s other venture to boost the numbers ahead of the end of an otherwise disastrous year.
Its shakey, but might be in the clear because SpaceX is still private and can do whatever it likes. If they went public too, then there would be a problem I think
I think they’re going to IPO soon, so gotta get this shady shit done first.
Using government funds to buy stupid trucks
Private, but don’t they serve a number of government contracts?
This is basically the government bailing out Tesla directly for a shitty truck.
