Tesla Starts Accepting Cybertruck Trade-Ins – According to Tesla, a Cybertruck Loses $35,000 Over 6,000 Miles ($5.6 Per Mile) Tesla has reversed its policy barring Cybertruck trade-ins. A Cybertruck owner says Tesla offered him $65,400 for his $100,00 truck with 6,200 miles. This means, according to Tesla, a Cybertruck loses...

Tesla now accepts Cybertruck trade-ins, and the official resale loss is $35k over just 6,000 miles.

I repeat: according to Tesla itself a Cybertruck loses $5.60 cents per mile, not counting the cost of electricity, tires, etc.

Unprecedented levels of flop!

There are a lot of *interesting* hot takes on Pope Leo XIV.

Many of them are bemoaning an "American Pope" b/c of Trump.

I understand. I feel you.

But PLEASE... take a moment to look at the man's history.

He is NOT the American that Trump & Vance wanted as Pope.
