Reverse: Tesla Deletes Cybertruck No-Flipping Rule From Ordering Agreement
Tesla has unleashed the Cybertruck.
The automaker last week had added a clause to its order agreement that restricted Cybertruck buyers from selling their trucks within the first year of ownership.
The stipulation required Cybertruck owners to get permission from Tesla to resell their trucks during the period.
Tesla claimed the right of first refusal to repurchase the trucks for the list price less 25 cents per mile driven and any required repairs.

The language also said that anyone who sold their truck without approval would have to pay $50,000 or the amount they sold it for, whichever figure was greater.
