“Can’t buy another car, can’t buy another boat, can’t buy no more jewelry, can’t buy no more cars, even though I just bought a new Tesla. I can’t. I’m done.” Earlier this year, Shaquille O’Neal made a promise that he wouldn’t buy another car after he bought his Cybertruck. But just weeks later, he added another Elon Musk’s creation. But it was different than many other celebrity-owned EVs, and recently Shaq appreciated his close friend and rapper for his dual-tone Tesla.
“Shout out too man, I was digging your Cybertruck, for sure.” Trae tha Truth first reciprocated his love for Shaq’s latest wheels. The Lakers legend was quick to say, “Yours sweet two. If you ever in Houston, check out 713.” Not only did Shaquille O’Neal love the milky white and burgundy dual tone, but he also gave a free promotion to 713 Motoring.
You won’t be surprised to find that the Houston-based rapper has multiple cars wrapped in some color tone. In his collection, he has a Mercedes-Maybach GLS 600 ultra-luxury crossover SUV and a Mercedes-Maybach S 680 saloon. But Trae did not get a shoutout from Elon Musk, like Shaquille O’Neal. Yes, when Shaq added another Cybertruck to his car collection worth $2.5 million this year, he made sure it stood out.

Thanks to Effortless Motors, the $500 million worth Shaq got a custom all-black makeover with a wide body kit and carbon fiber construction. The purpose of the Tesla is simple, to accommodate the 7’1″ giant. Plus wide carbon fenders, with 26″ Forgiato Wheels, gloss black wrap to match the all-black interiors, and the driver seat is moved back 8.″
The carbon-fitted black EV was so unique that even Elon Musk commented, “Nice”. Even though Shaquille O’Neal never needed a second cyber truck he just bought it. But recently, he even got emotional when he received a personalized gift, not for the first time.

Shaquille O’Neal getting emotional
Before they spoke about their love for their wheels, Shaq shared that he and Trae had been close for 10 years. The friendship is like brotherhood, and the Houston rapper makes it more special every time they see each other. And when Shaquille O’Neal, along with Kayo were doing their “WHOZFIRE,” O’Neal got another gift.

“Trae, don’t give me no gifts, man. You gonna make me cry, man, stop.” Shaq said on the same podcast. It was a custom Bumpboxx, a deep bass speaker with 4 Superman logos. The product is yet to hit the market, and since Trae owns the product, it was his way of appreciating the Lakers’ legend.
“10 years, man, you always, like, you know, you be like, where you at? I’m in Atlanta too. What’s your address? He’ll come to the house, you know, he’ll bring gifts and stuff.” That’s not all, for Shaquille O’Neal’s latest venture WHOZFIRE, where they give $30,000 to the eventual winner. Trae said he would even feature it for free for the artist and would even gift the same Bumpboxx.
