While Tesla is known for its long-range electric vehicles and nation-spanning Supercharger network, the automaker also has a quirky side.

In the past, the U.S. automaker has etched its branding onto products as diverse as sledgehammers and bottles of mezcal. But there's more where that came from, and these items may appeal to Tesla fans who appreciate a bit of off-beat humor.

In 2021, Tesla moved its headquarters from Palo Alto, California, to Austin, Texas, and its nearby Gigafactory produces the Model Y and the new Cybertruck.

To celebrate its newfound Texas roots, the automaker sells an elaborately designed belt buckle that displays the Tesla logo on top of the state's ubiquitous lone star and the phrase "Don't Mess With." Presumably, fans can fill in the rest.

Another item influenced by the company's Texas headquarters is the Tesla branding iron. Budding ranchers should take note that the item description doesn't explicitly mention livestock. Instead, the branding iron can be used to stamp the Tesla logo on items such as meat patties and buns, along with wood and leather goods.

The design of the Cybertruck has influenced several items for sale at the Tesla online shop, including drinkware.

The 19-ounce Cyberstein is a dishwasher-safe ceramic mug. The automaker also sells shot and sipping glasses inspired by the sharp corners of the head-turning truck.

Tesla is no stranger to controversy. Whistleblowers have called out everything from product-design flaws to working conditions to accounting standards.

The EV maker remains unfazed, however, as evidenced by this Cybertruck-inspired whistle. In case the wink here isn't clear enough, the item description drives it home: "Reimagined for all the whistleblowers out there."

The whistle is made of medical-grade stainless steel and has a matte-black finish.

When the Cybertruck debuted, it arrived carrying a similarly styled ATV to demonstrate its bed space. While that ATV has yet to be released, this child-friendly version is available, even if it's not meant for off-road use.

The Cyberquad is designed for kids ages 9 to 12 and can travel up to 10 mph. It also has 15 miles of electric range, LED lights, and a disc brake.

Unlike adult-size Tesla vehicles, rapid recharges aren't on the menu. It can take as long as five hours to fully charge the Cyberquad.
