Johnna's Tesla Fund
Donation protected
Two years ago my life changed in a drastic way that left me broken and shellshocked. I was married, then one day my husband came home and said that he didn't pay our rent, lost his job and was leaving me.
I was left homeless, bereft and heartbroken. The simple kindness of Elon Musk who replied to one of my tweets in a moment that I was about to do something fatal was one that changed my life. Then his kindness again following the aftermath really moved me.
It gave me hope. It introduced me to a community of people who helped me get to where I am today. I was homeless, jobless, and emotionally devastated. Some days it was incredibly hard to "believe in good" especially when I felt so raw.
I fought the pain. I made up my mind to survive and made a vow that if I can ever get through this, get through the divorce, I would buy a Tesla. So I fought, cried and took it one day at a time. Each day was a step. Those steps led me through yesterday's news of the fact that my divorce will be final next month and into this moment right now.:
That moment where I just placed an order for a Tesla Cybertruck.
It was a moment that I envisioned many times, but the emotions were unexpected. I was suddenly hit with this overwhelming fear that what if I didn't save enough money to cover it or didn't make it? What if I was making a mistake? Then I remembered that by keeping this vow I was honoring myself, my heart, and my promise. I deserve this reward for the hard fight I fought to get to where I am now mentally and emotionally.
I squeezed my eyes shut and placed the order. Eternity stretched for a second then I saw the owl. My heart raced. That button suddenly represented something else: the slamming of the door on a chapter of my life that almost became my final chapter due to a fatal choice I almost made that was halted by a reply from Elon.
My heart raced, tears streamed down my face and I sat there in shock. Emotions ripped through me and I just froze as I just felt. Pressing that button made me feel different. Stronger, and more hopeful.
Why I Chose The Cybertruck
I chose the Cybertruck Single Motor RWD because it gives me time to save up for it and learn how to drive. Yeah, I'm buying a truck and don't know how to drive yet.
I have a goal on here of $50,000 which would cover
-$39,900 base cost
-$7000 FSD package
-Leaves room for fees, taxes, learning how to drive and state EV ownership fees as well.
Several people have told me to set up a GoFundMe so I am doing this. However, if you want to support me in other ways, I make jewelry, and I have a few books published on Amazon. You can get all of those here at https://www.johnnacrider.com
If it wasn't for Elon or the Tesla community I would be lost. Today, I made a decision. Thank you. Thank you all for helping me during the most painful part of my life.
