The inverter is already on the truck. You just need a switch to be able to disconnect the home from backfeeding the grid. If you already have a powerwall and a Tesla wall charger, it will just work out of the box as an additional ~9 powerwalls that you can also drive to work
The Tesla ecosystem has no competition.
Because I bought the "FOUNDATION Series" Cybertruck,
Tesla is coming to put an inverter in my house, so that I can use the Cybertruck battery power to feed the household in the event of an earthquake or catastrophe.

Many movies exist about a lone inventor in a garage having a eureka moment, but almost none about manufacturing, so it’s underappreciated by the public.
