A Tesla Cybertruck Owner From Los Angeles Says Every Time He Sees Another Cybertruck, He’ll Leave a $1 Note on the Truck, Adds, “I Got Punched for Driving a Cybertruck & I’m Trying to Spread the Love”

A Cybertruck owner says he was recently punched by a “Mexican dude” simply for driving a Cybertruck. He adds that every time he sees another Cybertruck, he will draw a heart and leave a $1 bill to spread love among Cybertruck owners.

Robert Oneal is a Cybertruck owner from Los Angeles. He says a recent altercation he had while driving his truck inspired him to leave a $1 bill on every Cybertruck he encounters in public.

Robert specifies the altercation, saying he was punched in the face simply for driving a Cybertruck. 

He writes…

“I got punched in the face tonight because I have a Cybertruck.”

Most people would try to fight back in this situation; however, Robert says he feels bad for the guy and that he even attempted to give him a hug.

“I feel bad for that guy. I tried to hug him afterward. That didn’t go well.”

After this unfortunate interaction, Robert followed up his post with a new video declaring that he’ll leave a $1 bill on every Cybertruck he sees on the road.

Robert adds that not only will he be leaving a couple of dollar notes but says that he’ll also put a heart shape on the vehicle.

The Los Angeles Cybertruck owner shared a video of the first Cybertruck he encountered parked next to him.

Robert puts two $1 bills on the Cybertruck and draws a heart shape using the dirt on the truck.

He says in the video…

“So this is my new trend. Every time there is a Cybertruck, I see it, and I’m going put a heart on it. I’m going to put American cash on it. I’m ready. Let’s roll. Let’s do this!”

Roberts finishes his video, showing $100 in singles that he intended to leave on other Cybertrucks he sees on the road.

This is certainly an interesting way to spread the love amongst Cybertruck owners.

Looking at the comments, a lot of Tesla fans had words of appreciation and several questions for Robert.

An X user, Goon, referring to the punch, asks…

“Did you seriously get punched?”

Robert says, Yes, and adds…

“Yes. It was a Mexican dude. 

The funny part is I’m Mexican and speak fluent Spanish. He does not.”

Another X user, Peter Helmer, writes…

“Must have been a pretty miserable punch.

If it was a real punch, I would not have been in a hugging mood.”

In response, Robert says because of his military training, he doesn’t get mad easily.

Robert writes…

“It was quite miserable 😂….but the military also spent millions training me. So, I do not get upset, honestly. 

Thank you, US Navy.”

Below his post, Robert added a GIF of Captain America saluting.

Other Tesla fans were concerned for Robert’s well-being. an X user, Mr. Fundman asks,

“Nooooo, bro!! What??? How?? You alright?”

In response, Roberts says that due to his large stature, he barely felt the punch.

He writes…

“I’m ok, bro. He was about 160 pounds, I’m 220. (He said something like “capitalist swine/rich,” I think)…I’m sure alcohol was in his system. The only reason I can imagine someone acting that way. I forgive him.

Oh, I asked if I was just punched. Friends said yes, 😂I might have a bruise today.”

The sentiment towards Robert's post was mostly compassion and support, although a few people say that a $1 bill is not worth much.

An X user, “Brian with an i,” writes…

“Sorry, those dollars ain’t worth anything.”

In response, Robert says…

“They can buy stuff.”

So I'm supposed to believe he was punched in the face because he was driving a Cybertruck based on nothing?

He don't fight back, the assailant was "drunk", he was a "Mexican" who didn't speak Spanish, there was no police report, there wasn't even any footage of it (Cybertrucks have cameras you know) but strangely he does has video of him sending "love" to other Cybertruck owners.

Abolute nonsense.

Well sir, first you actually bought a cyber truck, now you want to give a dollar to all the other cyber truck people, lol you're a idiot 🤣

So a guy with more money than brains is going to leave money for people just line him to "spread Tesla love"... Oh please lmao; this is so fake

The Tesla in the picture looks a bit abused... That weird stain by the front window, the beat up mirror, the dings by the mirror. That $2 isn't going to help at all..

I fix broken faces for a living. I'm willing to bet a good number of those $1 notes that he was not just "minding his own business" when the altercation started.

In America, today's society, we cannot look at someone and assume they are of some ethnic origin. It's about having a conversation with someone. I could look white, but my parents are white and black, biracial. Donate the money to an anti bullying nonprofit. And the amount of people that have been laid off or have been under paid when building these machines, and finally machines that have taken the role of previous workers.

Sincerely,
An Air Force Veteran and Mom

Wrong for the guy to assault you ,that is unstable behavior but i seriously doubt it was because you have a particular truck ,more like someone with mental issue as so many un helped human beings!!!

Put the heart on the bills next you get in trouble for doing it in dust or dirt. That would make me angry..good luck bro!

He went on to say that he would like to leave $100 bill but unfortunately after spending all his money on the cyber trash all he has left is a few ones.

The problem is Cybertruck owners don't experience love. Though I'm sure they appreciate the transactional experience of getting a dollar.

$1 is is not enough money to make a Tesla owner's day.

I'm struggling to think of what $1 can buy besides cheap candy, if you're lucky.
