I would pay 10 bucks to use them in my survival kit as a fire starter.

Wait, now it's only $700 million. $400 million. $34 million... And it's $6.50.

Yeah, I guess there is someone out there who would buy a fleet of dumpster cars for $6.50.

I'd buy one for about tree-fiddy.

So like what, 20?

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.

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.

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.

I would take a few of the batteries. For free of course.

[–] TheOakTree@lemm.ee 3 points 2 days ago

Hell yeah if I could get a free cybertruck I'd have lots of fun salvaging the motors, batteries, sensors, etc.!

I think a few hours with a torch and they would make fantastic dumpsters. Imagine if you could crab walk a self moving dumpster? Genius
