Ryan Wycoff, a Cybertruck owner from Texas, initially felt uneasy when he saw that his Cybertruck’s sentry mode had been triggered while it was parked in an employee parking lot.
Given all the vandalism and anti-Tesla attacks, it’s not surprising that Ryan feared the worst. However, he says he was pleasantly surprised after watching the sentry footage.
Rather than a vandal, the person who triggered the Cybertruck’s Sentry camera is a Tesla fan.
This person approached Ryan’s Cybertruck to place a Hot Wheels Cybertruck on it as a show of support for the owner.
Ryan was definitely pleased with what he saw and he shared the story in the Tesla Cybertruck group on Facebook.
Here is what he wrote…
“So I got back from a four-day trip today, only to find that the sentry mode on my truck was activated in the employee lot.
Upon further review, I found that a big Cybertruck fan had left me a present on my tire—a Hot Wheels Cybertruck model!”
Below his post, Ryan included a video taken by his Cybertruck’s sentry camera.
As you can see below, a young man can be seen approaching a Cybertruck in a parking lot.
The guy approaches the vehicle, waves at the sentry camera, and holds up a Hot Wheels Cybertruck model in his hands.
He then signals that he’s leaving the Hot Wheels Cybertruck on the real Cybertruck fender, gives the camera a thumbs up, and simply leaves.
Given all the negativity surrounding Tesla and the Cybertruck, the owner was certainly pleased with this show of support. Looking at the comments, other Cybertruck owners also expressed their happiness and praised the young man for his actions.
A fellow Cybertruck owner, Joshua Cervini writes…
“Finally some positive Sentry footage for a change 👌🏻”
Another Cybertruck owner Manny Rodriguez adds…
“I was expecting acts of vandalism. Pleasantly surprised. Cool of that kid to do. I hope he gets a Cybertruck.”
A fellow Cybertruck owner, Marlon Valle, suggested that Elon Musk should be informed about this young man’s action writing...
“Put it on X and tag Elon Musk!”
Other Cybertruck owners go so far as to suggest that this young man deserves to be famous, and some suggested tracking him down to be able to send him money.
A fellow Cybertruck owner, Casey Bolen, writes..
“Friggin track this guy down and send him money!”
Overall, it would be an understatement to say that Cybertruck owners were happy with the young guys' actions.
They were actually so pleased that, following his footsteps, fellow Cybertruck owners suggested starting a similar trend where they leave Hot Wheels Cybertrucks to show support for other owners.
A Fellow Cybertruck owner, JD Snead, writes…
“Maybe all Cybertruck supporters should start leaving these on Cybertrucks!
Like the Jeep people leave rubber ducks!
What about it people!?”
JD shares this story on the Cybertruck Owners Club forum, where he expands on his idea and writes…
“The Jeep people leave rubber ducks on each other’s Jeeps as a sign of appreciation.
Should we all start leaving Cybertruck Hot Wheels to show our support for Cybertrucks?
I know I’m going to start!”
Cybertruck owners on Facebook were enthusiastic about this idea; however, Tesla fans in the Cybertruck Owners Club forum were surprisingly dismissive of it.
One Cybertruck owner, Jeff says, no matter the intention, he doesn’t want random people touching his truck.
He writes…
“Yeah, no.
Last thing I want is strangers messing with my truck, regardless of how enthused they might be.”

Don't buy Tesla and here is why...
Reliability and Quality Concerns:
* Lower Reliability Ratings: Consumer Reports has consistently ranked Tesla lower in terms of reliability compared to other brands.
* Reported Issues: Some owners have reported issues with paint quality, suspension problems ("whompy wheels"), sudden unintended acceleration, and brake failures.
Cost:
* High Purchase Price: Teslas generally have a higher upfront cost compared to many gasoline-powered and some other electric vehicles.
* Expensive Insurance: Insurance costs for Teslas can be significantly higher than for comparable cars.
* Costly Repairs: Cosmetic repairs can be expensive.
* Tire Wear: Tires may need replacement more frequently (potentially every two years).
Charging Infrastructure and Convenience:
* Home Charging is Ideal: While Tesla has a Supercharger network, owning a Tesla is most convenient with a home charger. Installing one adds to the overall cost.
* Public Charging Inconvenience: Despite improvements, public charging can still be unreliable, with out-of-service chargers and availability issues in some areas leading to frustration and wait times.
Features and Technology:
* No Apple CarPlay or Android Auto: Tesla's infotainment system does not integrate with these popular smartphone interfaces.
* Reliance on Touchscreen Controls: Many vehicle functions are controlled through the central touchscreen, which some drivers find less intuitive than physical buttons.
Brand and Company Factors:
* Customer Service Concerns: Some owners have reported issues with Tesla's customer service and repair processes.
* Controversial Leadership: The actions and statements of Tesla's CEO, Elon Musk, may be a deterrent for some buyers.
Driving Experience:
* Stiff Ride: Some reviewers have noted that Tesla vehicles can have a firmer ride compared to some competitors.
Alternatives:
* Increasing Competition: The electric vehicle market is growing rapidly, with many compelling alternatives from brands like BMW, Audi, Ford, Kia, and Hyundai offering different features and price points.

I used to have a 1:24 scale diecast Ram pickup on the dash of one of my Rams - trouble was it roll from side to side around turns! But it was a good convo starter! At least the little Hot Wheels wouldn't be as lethal...

Surprised they aren't smashing those fragile windshields. Cybertrucks aren't a good vehicle. Why would you want one when they aren't anywhere being a special or limited vehicle. Only reason why jeeps get "ducked" is cause jeeps have been around since ww2. CyberSucks. Have not.
