DJT Added Cybertruck to Motorcade during Visit to Texas

When President-elect Donald Trump touched down in Texas, he didn’t just come to witness the latest SpaceX rocket launch; he arrived in style—or at least, in his version of it.

Among the vehicles in his motorcade was none other than Tesla's polarizing Cybertruck, an addition as unconventional as Trump himself.

Very Texas, Very Demure

In a state where oversized trucks are practically a birthright, the Cybertruck’s angular design and electric buzz were impossible to miss. Love it or loathe it, the armored-looking EV fit right in with the Texas ethos: bigger, louder, and unapologetically flashy

The timing of the Cybertruck cameo was no coincidence. Trump’s visit to Texas revolved around his support for the private space industry, particularly SpaceX, founded by Elon Musk—a man who, like Trump, is no stranger to controversy or spectacle. The choice to feature the Cybertruck, Musk’s baby, felt like a nod to their shared love of making headlines and disrupting the status quo.

Cowboys with Coders

One thing’s for sure: in a state where oil and gas have reigned supreme, seeing a Cybertruck in a motorcade is as symbolic as it is surreal. It’s a reminder that even the most traditional landscapes are bracing for a new era—one that blends horsepower with kilowatts, cowboys with coders, and rockets with electric rides.

For now, though, the Cybertruck’s most significant mission wasn’t a lunar landing or a Mars expedition—it was being part of a Texas-sized spectacle that only Trump and Musk could orchestrate.
