That is about to change.

From another thread:
Mike, the Philippines is estimated to have 20% of the economy as fraud, waste, abuse, or graft, whereas for the US it's 5%. 5% is very good as far as large Western countries go, so in spite of everything, we do well.

The Trump administration is expected to purchase $400 million worth of armored Tesla vehicles, according to a new State Department document detailing procurement for fiscal year 2025.

Tesla Chief Executive Elon Musk is a top White House official who has been leading the Department of Government Efficiency, a unit focused on shrinking the federal workforce and ferreting out corruption.

The document does not specify what Tesla vehicles will be purchased by U.S. officials, but Musk's Cybertruck, with its militaristic design and stainless steel exterior, could be an option.
