Coal rolled and stopped by a cop to make sure it wasn't "stolen" with dealer plates and to check my insurance with under 200 miles on the truck.

Bless their hearts.

A lot more thumbs up than middle fingers.

My favorite comment so far- from a neighbor "It's too shiny".

Are any of you with dark tint getting negative gestures? I wonder if it deters some of them; not knowing if they have your attention. My driving reactions are mostly cameras. I have noticed a few full-size truck guys roll their window down as they pass me, then roll it back up. I assume they're trying to hear it. There are a few people who try to get me to roll my window down, but there is 0% chance of that happening.
They do start waving their hands and honking sometimes at lights to roll the window down even though they are tinted. I haven’t seen a bird yet but I don’t really look at people while I’m driving unless they do something crazy so maybe one has happened.

Seems to be dying down here not as many pictures or causing a disturbance on the road.

I've had mostly positive responses, even from diesel truckers. Got a bird today from a Subaru Impreza driver speeding past me in the right lane. Just shook my head. Oh well, it's a free country I suppose.

Almost always a wave, smile and thumbs-up. Lots of pic and video taking, like a real lot.

And for the rare somebody who is negative, I just give a smile and thumbs-up in reply

Picked up AWD May 10th. It is rare that day goes by when I drive the Cybertruck that I don’t get the middle finger. I find it annoying but mostly I just am curious what in the world is the reasoning. These people don’t know me or anything about me. Seems so strange.

That’s crazy. What part of the country are you in?

Why is it so important to them that YOU know THEY don't like it? I mean if I don't like someone's shirt I don't feel inclined to notify them of my opinion. Like a middle finger is gonna make me realize I made a horrible mistake, come to my senses and return it. Ok you got me middle finger guy...

Yeah I mean at the end of the day I don’t care what they think or anyone really. It is just a little frustrating to get the bird every day. Mostly I worry about people messing with the truck in public. Stupid that I have to worry about people doing something, makes me not want to leave it in public places which is fucking stupid.

I’ve been flipped off a few times since moving to PA. But I’m still in the Model Y. ?

I have been flipped off a lot when I was living in Colorado. But, only when I drive the Jeep in Boulder.
Can’t wait to see how provocative the CT will be. ???

I got my negative gesture today, a thumbs down from and ICE pickup truck. And of course it was the first time my wife drove the Cybertruck?

Kind of ruined the mood and my sales pitch of the endless positivity you get with driving or around town....

Okay so I have just had cars people didn’t care about before. How odd of a thing that someone’s choice on vehicle causes that reaction. People need hobbies lol
