Public REACTIONS to Your Cybertruck (and Your Reaction)? [Admin Warning: NO POLITICS]

[tmeyer3]

If you're into it, do it. It's your truck.

Welp, so this happened hahaha thx for the inspiration! I'll probably get bored of it in a few months and pull it off, but it was only $20.

Perfect! Are you going to tell people it is your space ship? That is my standard answer, It is my spaceship. And they laugh.

From the "other side of the fence" for now my honest reaction at seeing our neighbor's CT was that it is not as big as I expected (mean that in a good way) and it looks better in person than in photos IMHO. Got to sit in it despite muddy boots, and he said "hey it is a truck, don't worry about it". Very cool.

Rolled into a Starbucks parking lot and a woman angry-yelled at us "what is this, F##king demolition derby day!?" And kept walking. People sitting outside Starbucks got a good laugh, as did we ?

(Edit) today, I got "does it transform into a robot?". I said "not yet, maybe with the next update."

We don't have many of them in Indiana so pretty much 100% of the people are seeing it for the first time, here are a few frequent comments...

Who makes that?
Did you build it?
So it's electric?
Where are all the controls?
Can you get those wipers at Walmart?
It opens like a microwave!

I have to say it is fun meeting people and getting their thoughts. Nearly all of them like it.

Today someone said “wow this is amazing, I love it. It reminds me of that crazy car Tesla said they were gonna make but never did… the one were they said the glass was unbreakable and then they broke it be accident.”

I was just like…” yeah this thing is crazy”

they had no idea it was a Tesla. I think most people think it’s awesome when they see it in person.

Demolition derby? Now that gives me some great ideas, but not until I get my next VIN#. I might have to move the radiator to the vault! The power and AWD of the Cybertruck, with the nimbleness of four-wheel steering, combined with the drive by wire steering, would make the Cybertruck king of the arena!

But it sounds like that lady doesn't appreciate a good demolition derby! Oh well!

Why do so many people think Tesla said the glass was unbreakable? They said it would be stronger than regular auto glass, not "unbreakable". Unfortunately, they used too heavy of a steel ball to test it.

Love it!

If anyone acts like the wiper would be too expensive, or difficult to source, tell them a replacement wiper will cost $75 from Tesla, which includes free shipping to your door.

I showed my Cybertruck to my 72-year-old friend who is on a very limited fixed income and a little skeptical of the Cybertuck. He had owned older 1-ton 4x4 pickups back in his younger working days. He said he would like to drive it someday. I told him he could drive it right now if he liked. About half-way through his drive he said in a very adamant tone, "I want one! I mean, if I could afford one, I would buy this!"

Well Dressed boomer... "Is that a movie prop"?
Seen a lot of finger pointing, (no middles yet).
And two female (presenting) gen-zers rear ended the car in front of them (just tapped it) taking photos

He looked very mad ?

It doesn't look like he's going to use the cross walk legally.

"What do you do? What do you do for a living?"

 

[HaulingAss]

A complete stranger asks, "How much do these cost?" I hesitate. They blurt out, "A hundred-fifty thousand?"

Now I just tell them $80K, but you can't just go pick one out and drive it home.

Lol that's a new one.

Thought this question was funny from a kid:
"Why does your car look like that?"
Followed up with
"It's so cool! Can I touch it?"

I'm convinced that adults that hate it have completely lost connection with their inner child
