If you are from Texas...Cybertruck can power a house

Something for Texans to consider -- and be off grid and off Griddy and their $17,000 electricity bill.:E

    Maybe a dumb question - how do you charge the truck? From work / supercharger on the way home?

    And if so, that means the house is unpowered during time away from home. Factor in charging costs and premature battery wear, wonder if it's actually cheaper.

    I'm all for EVs for their intended purpose - commuting. But this is stretching it.


    This is supposed to be a joke, but yeah, I'll play.

    You get two Cybertruck, one you use for work and charge free while you are in the office.

    The other is powering your home during the day.

    Then when you go home, you switch truck.

    Is it economical? Solar panels on roof maybe more economical, they are giving it away at $50 to $70 a month on lease.
