A Tesla Cybertruck owner says, “You work hard, but your kids don’t want to hang out with you, and your friends are too busy to visit,” get a Cybertruck, and the world can’t ignore you. Surprisingly, close to 50 Cybertruck owners echo this sentiment.

Given the Cybertruck’s radical design and all the attention it attracts, the general public is curious about the personality of the individual who chooses to daily drive the vehicle.
Fortunately, a group of Cybertruck owners have shed light on the matter, giving us a peek into the thought process behind their purchase. The Cybertruck owners say the overwhelming attention associated with the vehicle isn’t a drawback but rather the most desired feature.
A dentist Tesla Cybertruck owner, Steven Shao, first shared this sentiment on Facebook, which several Cybertruck owners later echoed.
Steven, writing about his Cybertruck ownership experience, says…
“You worked hard, but your kids don’t want to hang out with you, and your friends are too busy to visit. You are getting older every day, and your neck and back are complaining.
You need a man cave, a Batmobile, and a powerhouse, and it would be nice to have something that makes people snap their necks and glare. You want an overpowered, overpriced, over-the-top giant fridge on wheels.
They can’t ignore you anymore.”
This is a rather sad reason to spend a hundred thousand dollars on a vehicle, and it says a lot about the state of the modern world.
Continuing his post, Steven writes…
“Maybe the attention isn’t what you want, maybe it’s too radical for your neighbors…… but you don’t care—you are old, tired, and cranky, and you’ve had it up to here with politics and the media.
Sometimes, you just want to exit the parking lot by driving over the parking stops and on the sidewalk. You are over those brushes by the house but don’t want to cut them—drive over them. Do you need 850hp in a 3-ton fridge? Who cares about what we need? We are animals driven by a passion for what we want.
You deserve it. Life is tough; answer back tougher. The world is full of nonsense, so drive something that makes even less sense. Enough of people giving you headaches – it’s time to give back.
You WANT a Cybertruck because you deserve it.”
Below, Steven finishes his post by sharing a picture of his Cybertruck parked in a company-reserved space.
This is Steven’s entire post, and by the end, it starts to sound like some sort of bizarre ad for the Cybertruck, but overall, the message is, if you’re not happy with the world, get a Cybertruck.
That’s quite a surprising sentiment, especially given how expensive the Cybertruck is. However, what surprised me even more was the number of Cybertruck owners who agreed with Steven’s reasoning for buying the truck.
Another Cybertruck owner, Chadwick Robison, writes, “The truth is spoken. I feel you.” Sari Tyler simply agrees, writing, “Yes.” Schuyler Oliver responds, “Yup!”
Joan McNamara writes, “You nailed it.” Rod MacQuarrie responds, “Yup, that's me, alright. But you forgot bulletproof.” Edwin C Liu writes, “Well said! That’s why I got my Foundation Cyberbeast!
Overall, other than a couple of dissenters, more than 40 Cybertruck owners agreed with Steven’s reasons for buying a Cybertruck.
