A Tesla Cybertruck Owner Says He Lost $70,000 in Business Deals Because He Drives a Cybertruck. Adds, “I’m in a Dilemma; I’m Losing a Lot of Customers, but I Love My Cybertruck”

A Cybertruck owner says his roofing business is losing a lot of customers because of the Cybertruck. He adds that he lost $70,000 worth of deals because of the vehicle. However, he says he still loves the truck and doesn’t want to sell it.

Yoni Menaker is the owner of Blue Angel Roofing in Atlanta and says he’s losing a lot of customers because he drives a Cybertruck.

Yoni shares that his company’s page is flooded with negative reviews and adds that he lost $70,000 worth of roofing deals only last month.

Yoni says the customers who terminated the roofing contract specifically told him that the issue was that he drove a Cybertruck.

Clearly, Yoni doesn’t want his company to suffer, but he says he’s in a dilemma because he also loves his Cybertruck and doesn’t want to let it go.

The conflicted Cybertruck owner shared his story on the Cybertruck Owners Only group on Facebook.

Here is what he wrote…

“I have a dilemma. I have started to lose customers because I drive a Cybertruck. I have also received some bad reviews in the past, and I am not sure what to do. I love this truck, and it's the best truck I have ever had.

But last month, we lost around $70k in deals, and the customers said that it was because we drove a Cybertruck.

Any suggestions?

I’m in Atlanta.”

Below his post, Yoni shared a screenshot of a review left on his company’s page.

It says Blue Angel Roofing, and the reviewer goes on to write…

“I’m just going to say, if a roofing company has a Cybertruck, maybe reconsider using them as your roofer.”

The reviewer also added a picture of Yoni’s Cybertruck showing the Blue Angels Roofing logo plastered over it.

This suggests that Yoni is driving his Cybertruck not only for personal use but also as a work truck, taking it to roofing job sites.

It appears that some people were so unhappy with the roofing company's use of a Cybertruck that they decided to go with another company. 

This is a surprising turn of events. When Cybertruck started deliveries back in November 2023, businesses were excited to plaster their logos all over it.

There are some businesses that even bought multiple Cybertrucks specifically as an advertisement opportunity.

However, fast-forward a little more than a year, and the Cybertruck has become a very divisive vehicle.

Some Cybertruck owners, such as Zack from the JerryRigEverything YouTube channel, bought a Cybertruck as an advertisement billboard.

Now, Zack says he’ll be selling not only his Cybertruck but all his Tesla products before the end of the year.

Elon Musk loyalists will argue until they’re blue in the face that Musk is not harming Tesla’s brand; however, based on the experiences of Tesla and Cybertruck owners in the real world, that argument is becoming increasingly difficult to make.

In the past few days, we’ve covered the story of a Cybertruck owner who says he was punched in the face simply for driving a Cybertruck.

After this incident, the Cybertruck owner says he’ll leave a $1 bill on every Cybertruck he sees to “spread the love.”

Another retired Cybertruck owner also shared that a guy with a lifted Ford F-350 came at him with his fists balled and ready to fight simply because of his Cybertruck.

The owner of a golden Cybertruck also shared that he, his wife, and his children face constant hostility because they drive a Cybertruck. He adds that because of the harassment, his wife now refuses to drive the Cybertruck altogether.

Overall, it’s interesting to see all the challenges Cybertruck owners are facing in the real world. Please let me know what you think in the comments.
