Except if you only go by what you see online you would think it is universally reviled. That's also confirmation bias.

I got my cybertruck because I wanted to do truck things on electric power. The attention never factored into the buying decision and once deliveries started rolling out I was nervous about the attention it was drawing for other people. Luckily all that attention has been positive for me.

Everywhere I drive it makes people smile. Plenty of adults have posed with it too. Is making people smile a bad thing nowadays?

My girlfriend follows the Facebook group for our local area and has shown me many posts from people seeing one and posting about how cool it is. And I've gotten only one negative reaction from someone giving me a thumbs down as they drove the other way. Haters have had plenty of opportunity to give me the bird or thumbs down but it just doesn't happen.

I have a cyber truck and it's amazing the disconnect between online and real life. This thread is evidence that online everyone hates it and thinks it's the worst thing ever. In person I can't go anywhere without someone wanting to ask me about it and gushing about how cool it is. Seriously, I constantly get thumbs up and smiles and "woah that's so cool who made it?" The sentry mode has seen many children pose in front of it while their parents take a picture.

The attention aside it is genuinely a good truck. 6ft bed, 120v and 240v outlets in the bed for power anywhere, 11000lbs towing capacity, 6000lbs bed capacity, 300 mile range, the battery storage to power my house for a month if I don't use A/C, a week with A/C, super fun and smooth driving, tight turn radius from the rear wheel steering, room for 5. If it looked like a normal truck but everything else was the same noone would care one way or the other.
