- 10 Cybertrucks were donated to Las Vegas police.
- Las Vegas haven’t noted whether to keep or sell them.
- Any vehicle going into police duty must be “upfitted” aka upgraded with a police package (lights, siren, comms, armor, etc).
- Police prefer a certain known standard performance vehicle specs for duty (horsepower, towing, speed, mass, manuvrrability, etc). Teslas are too young to have demonstrated anything of this.
- Some out-of-spec police cars (e.g.- retired, siezed, donated) might get another use as community outreach vehicles (D.A.R.E. cars).
- Article states an upfitting company named UP.FIT {corrected name} Las Vegas, aka UNPLUGGED PERFORMANCE ®. They are not a preferred public service vehicle upfitter, as they ONLY modify Teslas and only Teslas for contract.
- Sheriff McMahill is an uneducated media regurgitator.
