I get about 70% thumbs up 30% middle fingers and thumbs down. I have had Semi drivers hang their whole arm out to show their displeasure to people slowing down on the highway.
Kids absolutely love it and any adult who walks up to the truck are genuinely interested in it. Even if they don’t like the look.
For me I would say the 30% hate 80% are between the ages of 40-60.

No. I am right across the water ?here and there’s always a CT being spray painted in New York City. And I for one have had a response here on our thread. (I’ll try and find it for you) and the guy was from New York City and he said it’s pretty awful. ?

Texas, 99.999% positive. One person called it a fridge and another pretended to puke on it.

Over wise, everyone loves it.

Oh no, it is a one-night trip, and plan to let my hotel valet my truck. Only going to be driving to my hotel and driving out of NYC. Not risking parking outside at all.

I would imagine feedback directly correlates to:
- red state/areas = ?
- blue state/areas = ??

With maybe some exceptions in affluent areas like Silicon Valley and maybe parts of LA
I can image just the other way around. Might be misguided, I don’t know, but I image the most negatives are in blue pockets in red states. So blue area / red states.

It would be interesting to see some real statistical evidence. Not anecdotal from a self-selecting forum, where people cherry pick the information that supports their views,

For the people using percentages, you use the ratio pos/neg, ignoring all the neutrals? That gives a very disturbed picture don’t you think?

In my last four weeks: one bird, one thumbs up. Smiles I can’t count. telling this is 50% “hate” and 50% “love” seems disingenuous when it is 15 seconds “hate”, 15 seconds “love” in (4*5*2*25*60) 60,000 seconds on the road (which is just my commute, so not counting the time I use the truck in the weekend), which comes to 0.025% of each.
To me these very low percentages are the real numbers that should be mentioned. Unless someone wants to make it a much bigger deal than it is.
YMMV

How times changed.

Idaho - 100% negative
Montana 99% negative, 1% positive (another Tesla owner who apologized for "rednecks", her words, in her state.
Alberta - 100% positive (CT is the star everywhere)
BC - 100% positive
Washington - 100% positive
Oregon - 100% positive
California -100% negative.

You can just guess how it is now in Canada, Washington and Oregon.

NE Massachusetts here. 80-90% middle fingers or thumbs down, 10-20% thumbs up. Most people don't do either. Most kids seem to love it.

It's obvious to me that it's politically based. Unfortunately for me, the assumption is that I like our president because I drive it :rolleyes:. I know someone around here got a FS a year ago and recently sold it because of all of the hate since January. It's too bad.
That’s a bummer to hear.

I’m in the Boston area, near where 93 and 95 intersect. Of the interactions I’ve had, 90% positive. The most fingers I got was a weekend in Brattleboro, VT (literally only from Subaru drivers).

But daily driving around, 99% of the time people don’t care. It’s as if I’m driving a regular car.

Here’s the hate I got: an article written about my truck.
It’s so ridiculous that he said I honked and swerved around a cyclist and sped off into an alley. Such an obvious lie. Designed to make cybertruck drivers look like assholes?

my kids and I put the vinyl stickers on with our sticker machine at home.

What a horrible and hateful person. By the way I’m pretty sure this jerk is supposed to be female. But when you suggest that you’re going on a “hot girl walk” you are inviting critiques and if she is as “pretty“ on the outside as she clearly is on the inside your truck DEFINITELY wasn’t the only fugly thing on that street at the time she alleged to have seen you.

Do your thing, man! Have fun and enjoy your truck! Don’t let the bastards get you down especially not some jerk-wad snot girl who works at Jalopnik!

Yeah. My experience is that most people don’t care. But of those who’s feeling compelled to gesture caught my eye, the majority are negative.

The off-road community has been very standoff, nothing like when I wheeled my JF60. I'm finally going with a few guys tomorrow so I can report back on their opinions.
I promised the followup. Was a good trip. Damn the cybertruck can do a pretty good job holding its own on the trail. I was pleasantly surprised, everyone else that went was as well.

And then on the way home I had a couple reminders of the other side of the fence...
I smiled and laughed at both of them. The first guy did it after I pulled off to the side of the road for both cars.

Same here... North Florida. Been waiting for the hate but none so far that I have noticed.
You are missing out on some good entertainment. I don't get as much as I would like but, when someone does let it out, it just tickles my insides at how ridiculous they look. Unfortunately, it's because they are already unhappy inside and the Cybertruck just gives them an excuse to let it out. Which is actually a good thing, because bad things happen when that unhappiness just keeps building up, with no periodic releases.

You could say us Cybertruck owners are performing an important public mental health service. We could have already prevented a mass shooting at a place of work or even a church, for all we know! Public service has never been so fun or rewarding before the Cybertruck!

Could you guys just at least add the state you live in? because I’ve had this CYBERTRUCK for three months I’ve had about a dozen interactions all super positive✅. Everybody wants to know about it. I think it’s cool. Never get the finger. Never get people yelling anything, ever! I’m on the coast of New Jersey Monmouth County and reading the comments is like Reading some foreign news. Where do you guys live???? What the hell is the town like that you live in? Sheesh
If you live in a very dominant progressive state, that's where you'll see most of it.
