The Tesla Cybertruck turned heads as it rolled alongside President-elect Donald Trump’s motorcade near SpaceX’s Starbase during Starship’s highly anticipated test flight. The presence of the futuristic EV underscored the intersection of technological ambition and political significance.
Cybertruck Turns Heads in Trump’s Starbase Visit
According to Teslarati, in the vicinity of Starbase, Texas, the Tesla Cybertruck can be seen as a member of the motorcade of the United States president-elect, Donald Trump. The incoming president went to Starbase to witness the sixth flight test of SpaceX's reusable Starship, which is modeled after a commercial airliner.
The Cybertruck, which was part of Donald Trump's entourage, became viral on the social media site X. Video footage of the Cybertruck showed that it was following closely behind the presidential candidate's motorcade. The Cybertruck was obviously noticeable.
Despite the fact that the Cybertruck has its fair share of naysayers and that electric vehicles are currently a contentious political subject, many people were pleased to see the all-electric pickup truck accompanying Trump in his motorcade.
Social Media Imagines a Cybertruck Motorcade
X users have gone so far as to say that Cybertrucks leading the president in a motorcade would be an impressive sight.
The incoming president, Donald Trump, seems genuinely enthusiastic about the sixth flight of Starship.
"Watch the launch of the largest object ever to be elevated, not only to Space, but simply by lifting off the ground." Trump wrote in an X post before his trip that he was going to Texas to do just that. The "Great Patriots involved in this incredible project" and Elon Musk were also wished good luck during the flight test.
Government Leaders Join Trump at Starbase
A multitude of government leaders were present, including Senator Ted Cruz (R-Texas) and Linda McMahon, the newly appointed U.S. Secretary of Education. Surprisingly, SpaceX decided against trying to capture the Starship Super Heavy rocket using Mechazilla's arms and instead landed it in the Gulf of Mexico.
