False claim, debunked by snopes. Mods should consider blocking this news outlet.

Could it also be that it's a $80K-$100K car?

I have no solid source, but read comments suggesting Geico tends to not insure "exotic" $100K+ luxury vehicles.

...And I think this is important to remember this when talking about it. The Cybertruck is not a peer of a F-150, but a G-Wagon, a Maserati Levante or whatever.
