Sure, but the military isn’t going to pay more than they have to. The less they spend on trucks, the more they have for things that go boom. And nonfunctioning cybertrucks are likely going to cost under 20k each. (Probably less than the munitions being tested on them).
So while I appreciate the cynicism and generally agree, I don’t think that’s what’s going on here.
I’m not so sure about that. The pentagon is known for blowing massive amounts of money on stupid shit. The 2 million were probably a joke, but I wouldn’t be surprised.

It’s two vehicles.
Yeah, 4 million should cover it.
What does that even mean?
They are insinuating that they paid $4 million for two cyber trucks
Correct
Why?
Because Trump is nothing but a giant grift.
