Thought we were trying to reduce wasteful spending


Why is buying armored vehicles a waste? Do you know what armored vehicles are used for? Would you like to buy them from China? :lol:

So armored a softly thrown ball breaks the glass lol

No conflict of interest? Na has nothing to do with how much musk donated to trump.

Plenty of better ways to get higher quality and for cheaper armored vehicles.

According to Tesla, the body of the Cybertruck is strong enough to withstand impact from a 9 mm handgun round.

9mm! I think most cars will stop a 9mm lol

The document on the State Department's website has since been revised. The same line item now reads "Armored Electric Vehicles."
