GEICO, the second-largest vehicle insurance underwriter in the US, has decided it will no longer cover Tesla Cybertrucks. The company is terminating current Cybertruck policies and says the truck “doesn’t meet our underwriting guidelines.”

I thought 'expensive to drive' would have given away it wasn't a cybertruck, since the only good part about those things is that it's an EV and probably doesn't cost much to charge. I might not agree with your decision to drive a huge vehicle, but I'm not gonna call anyone an idiot for doing it.

It's also generally good form to not make spelling errors (realise) in a comment calling someone else stupid...
