a grand is slang for a thousand dollars. so “ten grand” = “ten thousand (dollars)”. you would not use “grand” in other contexts
The reward is ten grand! = The reward is ten thousand dollars!
We’d like to buy it, but we don’t exactly have ten grand lying around. = We’d like to buy it, but we don’t exactly have ten thousand dollars lying around.
But you could not say “ten grand cars”, for example. it would not be understood as “ten thousand cars”. instead, either the “grand” would be interpreted as the adjective meaning large, glorious, etc or it could be interpreted as “ten-grand cars” meaning “cars that cost ten thousand dollars each”
