Many think the following. I found out by asking a couple times in a parking lot. Rolled down the window, and asked. What gives my brother?

You buying that truck furthers the powers that be. That they will make all the gas cars go away. I say cool. Understand, yet you know that ain't true. Yes it is. Cool bro, can I buy you a beer? That just shocks the shit out of people.

I keep it like hey dude I won't yuck your yum, if you won't mine. Let's have a cold one and talk about upcoming forest fires. Small towns. Must be lucky. A few F's on Facepalm tried to get political. I am not on it. I was rescued by locals that defended the person, not the truck. That is what in time it boils down to when there are enough out there.

It's the person not the truck. No matter the brand. Asses appear everywhere in everything in life.

I think whether you get more positive vs negative reactions depends on which state you are in.

I have only had [very] positive responses. I have had one guy that said he wouldn't get one, but he owns several Teslas and would love to get a Cybertruck if it had more range (he needs to drive to Mexico and really does need the range because of the lack of infrastructure there). I suspect that those who suggest that thumbs-down people are just unhappy with their lives is more on target than anything else.

I've driven multiple H2 hummers, got a ton of hate, got keyed multiple times (actually caught one on camera and he ended up getting multiple felonies cause he fessed up to 7 others lol). All because "it was bad mpg", when I was getting 10-12.... Which was the same as most trucks at the time.

Now that I have a Cybertruck, there is also some hate.... I've gotten a few middle fingers and people trying to run me off the road actually (diesel trucks).

I think ultimately people just hate their lives, and hating on other people is some form of relief? ?

why are people so crazy about gas? I don’t get it. Are they really that in love with gas and oil or are they just being told to love it? I grew up with gas cars and trucks but why would I care about the fuel?

First thumbs down was within 30 minutes of buying truck, I didn’t get too upset as the vehicle they were driving had temp tags on it and it was missing a fender and the front bumper was crushed in.
Otherwise I get at least 2 thumbs down a week.
It’s a polarizing vehicle, people don’t like it, jealous or are just a-holes because you have something different.

I'd guess most of the thumbs down is due to hate of Elon.
