Tesla Responds to Cybertruck Owners Who Lost 50% of Their Vehicle’s Value in 1 Year – The EV Maker Says, “One More Post Like This and You Will be Getting $0”

Tesla is trying to humorously play off the staggering amount of money that Cybertruck buyers have lost while owning their truck for a year.

Tesla made the comment in response to one of the company’s biggest fans, a Cybertruck owner who goes by the X handle “Dirty Tesla.”

Dirty Tesla recently requested an appraisal from Carvana to determine how much the used car retailer is willing to pay for his Cybertruck.

And after Carvana made him a surprisingly small offer for his Cybertruck, Dirty Tesla shared the news on X, writing…

“My Tesla Cybertruck has lost approximately 50% of its value in 1 year. 

Should I take the offer from Carvana before the 17th or see what the next quote comes at?”

Below his post, Dirty Tesla included a screenshot from his Carvana app.

It reads…

“YOUR OFFER IS READY

2024 Tesla Cybertruck

$54,000.”

Dirty Tesla’s Cybertruck is the Foundation Series All-Wheel-Drive variant, priced at $100,000, with an additional $2,500 doc and destination fee from Tesla, along with several thousand dollars in taxes, bringing the total cost to $110,000.

However, after a year and 21,000 miles, Dirty Tesla’s Cybertruck has lost 50% of its value.

Although Dirty Tesla only shared the $54,000 Carvana offer yesterday, the used car retailer offered him that price back in March.

This is bad enough; however, earlier today, Dirty Tesla requested another quote from Carvana to evaluate how much his Cybertruck's value has decreased from March to April.

And lo and behold, the Cybertruck has depreciated even further. Between March 17 and April 7, Dirty Tesla’s Cybertruck has lost $2,000 more in value.

Now, the Carvana offer is down to $52,000 and has decreased by another $2,000 in just 20 days.

In a second post, Dirty Tesla writes…

“OMG, the offer has already expired, and it has decreased even more. "

Below his post, Dirty Tesla included a screenshot of the latest offer he got to sell his Cybertruck.

The Carvana offer reads…

“YOUR OFFER IS READY

Thanks! Your offer has been renewed and is good for another 7 days.

Your Carvana Offer

$52,000”

This is undoubtedly a frustrating amount of depreciation in one year, and this is where Tesla’s official Cybertruck X account steps in to respond to Dirty Tesla.

After losing $58,000 in a year, the official Tesla Cybertruck page, marked with Tesla’s special badge and golden check mark, addresses Dirty Tesla's concerns.

The official Cybertruck account responds writing…

“One more post like this, and you will be getting $0 when I do an Irish exit in the middle of the night.”

The Cybertruck account is trying to humorously nudge Dirty Tesla away from discussing how much the all-electric truck has depreciated, and you could generously view the statement as an attempt at comedy.

However, what’s surprising is that the official Tesla Cybertruck account, which listed the final specs of the Cybertruck for the first time during the launch, has simply accepted a 50% depreciation and doesn’t even attempt to contest the trade-in price or defend the demand for the vehicle.

Given that Cybertrucks were selling for $200,000 just a year ago, this is certainly a surprising turn of events.

Looking at the comments, several Tesla fans and Cybertruck owners shared the diminished value of their all-electric truck.

One Cybertruck Owner, Drake, writes, “mine is even lower,” and shows that Carvana has offered him $51,000 for his Cybertruck.

So far, we have yet to see a working Cybertruck selling in the forty-thousand range; however, given that the truck is devaluing by $2,000 every 20 days, I don’t think that day will be too far.

The massive depreciation on Cybertrucks is becoming an accepted truth even among Cybertruck owners and “Tesla influencers.”

However, some Tesla fans say it’s not appropriate for famous online Tesla personalities to discuss selling their Cybertrucks.

A Tesla fan, Dare W, writes…

“Why are so many accounts suddenly talking about selling their Cybertrucks? If it was always about short-term monetization, that’s understandable - but when influencers lead the exit, it risks creating a self-fulfilling prophecy that fuels doubt and discourages future buyers.”

That’s an interesting perspective; however, some suspicious Tesla fans take it even further and wonder whether Carvana is making the low offer for the Cybertruck as part of a coordinated attack to make Tesla look bad.

A fellow Cybertruck owner, Joe Montalto, who describes himself in his bio as an “Unpaid Tesla Sells Man” and “Cybertruck Dork,” writes…

“You think the Carvana offer is being manipulated to make Tesla look worse? They are trying to take down the company on a colossal level.”

That’s certainly an interesting perspective. However, please let me know what you think in the comments. Share your ideas by clicking the RED “Add new comment” button below. Also, make sure to visit our site, torquenews.com/Tesla, regularly for the latest updates.
