A YouTuber is auctioning off his $200,000 gold Cybertruck and it could be yours for just $20.

The man in question first shocked his viewers when he customized his Tesla Cybertruck, which was originally stainless steel.

However the YouTuber, who is known online as JerryRigEverything, decided to switch up the look of his vehicle, adding 25 karat gold, which was made possible by Ridge wallet.

Now, he’s put the car up for sale, for the low price of just 20 bucks.

That’s the starting bid in the auction and it’s for a very good cause.

In the video, Jerry said: “I have a wheelchair factory that makes the least expensive manual wheelchairs in the USA.

However, making inexpensive wheelchairs is actually pretty expensive.

“This Laguna 4,000-watt laser cost about half a million bucks. It cuts our aluminum tube to length in seconds, and time is of the essence when building a wheelchair.

“The average wait time currently for other wheelchair manufacturers here in the USA is two to six months. And we can knock out a chair in about 2 weeks.

“Our hope is to dial in this process enough to where if an airline loses or breaks a wheelchair, we can build a custom replacement and get it to you before your trip or vacation is over.”

He went on to say: “I was blown away when Ridge wallet said I could auction off their truck with no strings attached and keep the money to build wheelchairs.

“Their generosity is astounding because on paper this truck is worth about $200,000.

“The truck itself plus about $100,000 in gold plating. Realistically we probably won't get $200,000 for this truck since the auction site, Cars & Bids, is doing a no reserve auction.

So it could sell for 20 bucks, but keep in mind that 100% of all the funds we make go straight towards manufacturing wheelchairs.”

It doesn’t look like anyone will scoop such a low bargain as, at the time of writing this, bids already surpass $90,000.

Still, viewers were shocked by the auction, with many taking to the YouTube comment section to share their reactions.

One user wrote: “I was hoping I could snag this with an early $21.00 bid, but unfortunately for me, and fortunately for the wheelchair project, it's already over $86K.”

Another joked: “$20?! That's TWICE what I'm willing to pay for it!”

If you want to throw your hat in the ring for the gold Cybertruck, you can place your bid here.
