The YouTube channel “What’s Inside? Family” — which has over two million subscribers — recently tested how much a Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA) Cybertruck could fetch from used car purchaser and retailer CarMax Inc (NYSE:KMX).
In the video, which currently boasts over 130,000 views, host Lincoln Markham said the vehicle was not his and he was not in a position to sell the Cybertruck.
Tesla rules also prevent anyone from selling a Cybertruck for one year.
“This is the first Cybertruck in the world to get appraised at CarMax. None have been sold on the secondary market yet so this is the bar. How much will we get offered?” the video description reads.
The Cybertruck was purchased for over $100,000 and has a custom green wrap. The vehicle also has around 3,000 miles on it.
In the video, Markham predicted CarMax would offer to pay more than $100,000 for the vehicle. CarMax salespeople in the video say they can’t complete an actual sale because the vehicle is not owned by the YouTuber.
The YouTuber eventually shows an appraisal value of $76,000 from CarMax if he were to be able and willing to sell the Cybertruck.
“That is madness,” Markham said. “It’s crazy.”
The video shows Markham saying CarMax could easily sell the Cybertruck for $150,000 to $200,000. See below.
Benzinga reached out to CarMax for confirmation of the appraisal value and did not hear back.

Markham also shared in the video that some Supercharger locations have signs saying someone is willing to pay $125,000 for a Cybertruck.
