Elon Musk Denies $400M Cybertruck Deal with US Government: What We Know 

Elon Musk, the Cybertruck, and a $400 Million Question Mark: What's Really Going On?

A proposed $400 million government contract for armored Cybertrucks has vanished as quickly as it appeared. Musk himself calls it “fake news,” and the State Department claims it was a pre-Trump era inquiry for generic electric vehicles. But is this the whole story? A single company expressed interest – could it have been Tesla? And why was Tesla specifically named in the initial document?

This raises some bigger questions about Musk’s role in the White House. Is his position as head of the “DOGE” agency truly about government efficiency, or is it a conflict of interest waiting to happen? With billions in government contracts already flowing to SpaceX, should we be concerned about potential favoritism towards Tesla? Is this armored vehicle contract truly dead, or just on hold?

Let’s discuss. What do you make of this situation? Is this a simple misunderstanding, or something more? How will this impact Tesla’s image and future government contracts? Share your thoughts.
