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

[HaulingAss]

sigh,

Not everything Elon says is a fact. Some of it is speculation, and some of it is just plain wrong.

Here are the two broken windows (both broke from the first throw of the steel ball):

I want you to focus on the concentric circles around each impact, the break doesn't start from the bottom of the window.

Certainly, that's not definitive. But the two doors don't touch one another, and Franz only hit the front door with the sledgehammer. So why did the rear window break too, if the broken glass was caused by the sledgehammer hit to the center of the front door?

You see, sometimes it pays to engage your brain before casting stones at others.

I just couldn’t let this slide! It’s breathtaking coming out of your … keyboard.

You know how campaigns like to run negative ads with quotes from the opposition? Yeah, that but with this!

You’re the kind of person I love to have on the witness stand. Just cock-sure, loquacious and hapless!

For the love of Rudy, man! Can you please just stop? How many rakes can you possibly step on?

What are you talking about? I've never said Elon was God, always correct or anything like that. He's human, just like you and me (although you are outside the bounds of the definition of a reasonable human).

The idiocy you spread against anyone who calls you out on your BS is what's breathtaking.

Why don't you address the issue at hand, the actual subject you are railing about? If the front window shattered because it was already broken from the sledgehammer blow, then why did the rear window, mounted in the door that didn't take a sledgehammer blow, also break in the same manner?

I’m not railing about anything. That would be you. If you can’t tell, what I am is … bemused.

This is what it means to be railing when I pointed out that it makes no sense the sledgehammer could have been the cause of both windows breaking in the exact same manner:

I've been followed into parking lots because kids in the other vehicle are yelling at Mom to follow me so they can get a close look. Happened twice on just this Friday. I always oblige for a photo op with the kids sitting in it. Even when the wind chill is 0 F.

Thinking about putting "‎NCC-74656-A" on the side bed sail as a nod to Star Trek's shuttles that looks very similar to the CT. Dope or nope?

That is an awesome idea!

What I’ve noticed since I’ve gotten mine is I always get positive reactions from kids. And then half of the adults, I see give me a thumbs up and the other half Give me a thumbs down (but everyone feels compelled to share their opinion.) I hate to admit it, but I think some of the people that are hating on cybertrucks are a little bit jealous. There’s also a lot of bad/false propaganda out there. I live in the mountains and we get a lot of snow in the winter and this woman told me “they’re terrible in Snow, they can’t carry any payload and they’re terrible for off-roading.” Mind you, she had never been inside a Cybertruck as a driver or as a passenger.

Oh man! The amount of sheer ignorance about the Cybertruck is astonishing! It's worse than when the Model 3 was released! I think it's easier for low IQ people to buy into the false narratives of the Cybertruck because it looks so different from legacy trucks that they think all the bad things could actually be true!

The biggest one I hear is that EVs aren't going to help with global warming. Rather than explain how they have a much lower carbon footprint over their average lifecycle, I simply say "And do you think a gas or diesel truck will help with global warming?"

Carbon dioxide never has been, nor will it ever be a problem in our atmosphere. The ppm remains at a stasis and is balanced by the hydrologic cycle and vegetation blooms.

Just had an interesting reaction to the CT:

Had parked near the rear of the parking lot at a Walmart, and coming out had a bit of a walk to the truck. Two older ladies are walking towards me (I'm still 250-300 ft from the truck) and I overhear: "if you have that much money, why would you buy something so ugly?"

I just laughed to myself.

My truck was just vandalized with acid. I’m beyond frustrated with this nonsense.

In Seattle alone, my truck has been kicked three times, leaving scuffs. A trans man (full beard) in women’s clothing though it was ok to urinate on it. Beer’s been poured on it. A drunk idiot jumping backwards on the frunk. And to top it off, a women threw her bloody tampon on it. Now, acid damage. It’s infuriating.

All of this happens when I’m not around. I haven’t looked too much into involving the police because, honestly, I don’t expect much more than a useless report. There’s no way to identify people on the street, and it feels like nothing would come of it.

It would be great if Tesla made an update to alert owners of sentry mode activations or even a feature where the truck reacts more aggressively when triggered—especially for the Cybertruck. It’s ridiculous that in a city filled with Teslas, the Cybertruck is the only one getting targeted. Clearly, it’s because of political reasons or just people hating on Elon. I’m sick of it.

Acid has to be one of my biggest fears. I can’t see the damage though all I can see is some faint writing on your window.

That sucks, sorry man. Only thing we can do is stayed glued to our phones (with the Tesla app open) so we can be alerted right away. I’d recommend filing a report. It might not catch your guy but enough reports will turn CT vandalism into a hate crime with additional punishment.
