Did Tesla give me a previously vandalized Cybertruck?

Definitely dont expect them to dispose of the vehicle since there is nothing mechanically wrong with the vehicle. I just expected a better attempt to remove these things before a customer takes delivery. it can be cleaned off but the CUSTOMER shouldn't have to shoulder that responsibility at delivery. Nor the responsibility of scheduling an appointment to buff out the scratches on the steel.

I absolutely love Tesla. This is my 3rd one. I just hate that out of all of the cars ive had from different companies, Kia, Porsche, BMW, Dodge, etc. i have never had to do the level of forensics we as Tesla owners have to do on a NEW big purchase. Now with USED vehicles, I can understand checking cosmetic things. But a NEW vehicle should be clear of any and all cosmetic issues. Ill get the paint off myself since ill be wrapping it. I have to clean and clear the surface anyway. The scratch will be theirs at the end of the lease because its was there before they leased it to me ??‍

If you are having CT wrapped, why does these issues matter. I agree, some leftest vandalism took place with spray paint in storage lot. Tesla (any dealership) did the same we all of us would have to do, have paint removed. I hope we Wouldn’t expect dealer to dispose of vehicle. Yes, Tesla should have made you aware of vandalism

I agree that it looks like it was vandalized. In my opinion, Tesla should have disclosed that and offered at least a small discount because, despite their attempts, it will never be perfect again (not that any Cybertruck ever is). I'm sure it looks much better than it did and I'm sure the service center will take care of anything else you notice, but you shouldn't have to deal with that on a new vehicle.
Since they didn't disclose it, they have damaged your trust and left you with a bad experience. Being up front with you and giving you the opportunity to either save a little bit of money or choose a different truck would have been the right thing to do.
I like Tesla, but they could do better by their customers. Unfortunately, many of the employees just don't care. That's not unique to Tesla and it's difficult for a company to control, but it's disappointing when Tesla does so many other things so well.
