Hard to feel sorry for anyone actively putting money in Tesla/Musk’s pocket @ this point
Weird ad campaign, but OK.
This is the best summary I could come up with:
Tesla has revived a contract clause that says the electric carmaker could sue Cybertruck buyers for $50,000 or more if they resell during their first year of ownership.
As we reported a month ago, the Cybertruck-only clause was added to the public version of Tesla’s Motor Vehicle Order Agreement Terms & Conditions and then deleted after the lawsuit threat attracted some attention.
The clause says Cybertruck buyers must offer the car back to Tesla at a reduced price before any attempt to resell the vehicle within one year of delivery.
"You agree that in the event you breach this provision, or Tesla has reasonable belief that you are about to breach this provision, Tesla may seek injunctive relief to prevent the transfer of title of the Vehicle or demand liquidated damages from you in the amount of $50,000 or the value received as consideration for the sale or transfer, whichever is greater.
People who made early Cybertruck reservations received their invitations to order the limited-availability Foundation Series edition on Friday.
As an Electrek article notes, it’s unclear whether the clause applies only to the Foundation Series version of the Cybertruck.
The original article contains 545 words, the summary contains 190 words. Saved 65%. I’m a bot and I’m open source!
They arent ferrari, what are they thinking?
Supposed to stop scalping
You have to be a colossal idiot to buy this car. You have to be an even bigger idiot to buy it from a scalper
Sounds like the average Church of Elon Member to me
Who is scalping the worst truck ever made? Even the people who put a down payment down don’t want one.
after submitting a $122,135 order
The buyer told us that he paid a $250 order fee on Friday and previously paid a $100 reservation fee.
Tesla doesn’t have to refund those types of fees if a buyer cancels
You have to pay $350 to get the privilege to fork over a hundred and twenty grand? My jaw literally dropped.
You forget we live in a society where we have bought tickets and raffles for the chance of being able to buy Air Jordans or Yeezys or w/e fuck shoe that did that.
Just throw this shit up on Rocket League and end the line already. I think I already have those wheels.
Are you able to return it if you dislike, or are you just fucked?
If I remember correctly, you must let Tesla buy it back rather than reselling.
If this is true, and people stupidly signed a contract stating as such, I have zero sympathy for them if they get sued. What a ridiculous stipulation.
I still don’t get why people buy Tesla products. You know what they’re like now. What are you doing?

I don’t feel embarrassed but when I bought mine it was far and away the best value. Now there’s many more options and teslas are priced way higher than them. I’ve tried out a couple of them and my next car probably won’t be a Tesla due to price more than anything.
I’m curious what you’ve looked at? In New England and as a snowboarder, AWD and high range are both requirements and I’m not seeing anything cheaper than the Model 3 unfortunately.
I am in Canada and at the time I hadn’t skied before so that wasn’t a concern. But there was the leaf and the bolt really were the only 2 other available cars. And the base model 3 was only about 3-5k more than the others and it had a better range and the supercharger network so for me it made no sense to get anything besides the model 3
