The State Department is no longer pursuing the idea of armored Teslas or Cybertrucks.

This decision comes after media coverage of the idea and concerns about money going to an Elon Musk company in the midst of planned government budget cuts by the Musk-led Department of Government Efficiency .

It certainly seemed fishy for Tesla to appear in government documentation for hundreds of millions of dollars of vehicles considering Musk 's close involvement.
