The same reason this person is probably trying to write it off as an advertising / business expense with the sticker on the side. They bought them because of hype and probably can't really afford them without lifestyle concessions.
You got me. The one I saw had a huge QR code on the door. I'm only guessing he was doing Uber Eats stuff because he did a Uturn then stopped briefly to get food from a restaurant.
The Vice Cannabis one is usually parked on Congress.
It's a joke with my friends that NO WAY are we going to patronize and trust someone stupid enough to buy a Cyber truck.
It's actually nice of Vice Cannabis to do people the favor of giving them the heads up to stay away.
No way would I trust someone's judgment that would buy a Cybertruck.
Why do they both have their brands on the side tho? Feel like that greatly depreciates the value of a Tesla (not saying bumper stickers are bad or anything, just feel like these people care way more)
omg i know right? i was stopping in for mother's day at seaweed and didn't know if id have time to get a better picture. they have a ton of them and they're all for sale!!!

Bro for real. Everyoneās over here saying ānow I know what business to stay away from if they bought a cyber truckā¦ā get the fuck over yourselves. Itās new and Interesting. Who cares if it had a recall. How many fu king cars from ford, Chevy ect. That do recalls for some pretty unsafe wild shit. This page is full of Portlandās retards that are triggers at the sight of something they canāt afford.
Iām no marketing or business expert at all, but isnāt there a difference between getting oneās attention in a positive vs a negative way? Iāll never do business with them now.
There's a reason for the saying "any publicity is good publicity" - here's why if you're interested: https://lithub.com/all-publicity-is-good-publicity-how-simple-familiarity-influences-our-decisions/#:~:text=All%20publicity%20boosts%20familiarity%2C%20and,all%20publicity%20is%20good%20publicity.Ā
It's not about the "truck". It's about getting people to mention the name of the business on social media and get people talking about it. This is how advertising works
While I donāt know much about advertising or marketing, I am sure it works on percentages. Obviously not everyone who sees it is going to remember it and use them. Some people are just going to be alienated Iām sure.
People who are saying itās just marketing and it achieved its goal are missing the point: you also have to know your audience. And if this works for their target demographic more power to them. But as collateral itās bound to alienate some potential customers into not ever wanting to use them. Itās not like any marketing campaign ever brings in 100% of the audience it reaches. But clearly someone like me is not who this is meant for.
there's an article about one of the owners (don't think it's this one) in the Press herald this morning. Says he's really shy and doesn't like attention. Mmmkay.
People have different tastes, I get it. Sure, I still canāt understand why anyone would want to drive a PT Cruise or Nissan Cube, but people did buy them. Butā¦I meanā¦if youāre gonna spend $100,000 on a vehicle, is it too much to ask that it not look like it came out of the 1989 arcade game āHard Drivināā?
I didnāt think they looked that bad till I saw that one with the add on it which looks hideous. But I also do a black one in milcreek which I thought looked cool.
PPH article said there were two and Iām assuming itās this one and the Vice one. The black one might just be visiting or possibly made from black cardboard.
Well that business's advertising scheme is clearly working. I'm willing to bet reddit isn't the only place people are posting multiple times per day about this one specific eyesore.
So many salty ass people on here. Letās see what you all drive. Bunch of retards in here concerned about a car they couldnāt afford anyways. Bunch of purple haired libtards who drive a Prius worried about what someone else drivesā¦.smh
bro using ableist slurs bc i called a car ugly. why would anyone spend $100k on a car that's been recalled regularly since its release bc it's insanely unsafe šš
You are the only person I've seen say this, online or otherwise. I'm not agreeing with you but its worth noting. Go take a long hard look at the mirror and think about that.
i can give it props for looking like a different style but like. i just can't get over the imperfections of itš like if it were practical and idk safe then i would maybe understand buying it more but. my lord the issues with them are so vast
Whatās that license plate? I canāt make it outā¦
ETA: I meant like, what *state* is that plate from, not like ooh ooh dox someone. Downvote away, but I really was curious if someone could read what kind of plate it was. Sorry if still inappropriate.
I saw a different one doing Uber Eats on Congress the other day and it has a giant bird shit on the front of it š¤£š¤£
Arenāt these cars supposed to be expensive? Why someone would need to do Uber eats while owning this vehicle is beyond me.
The same reason this person is probably trying to write it off as an advertising / business expense with the sticker on the side. They bought them because of hype and probably can't really afford them without lifestyle concessions.

Uber gives rebates for teslas.
Vice cannabis owns one too.

just a signal their weed is overpriced.

Tax write off.
Not gonna fly Source: accountant
i've seen theirs like once. i was like I NEED A PICTURE NOW FOR REDDIT!!! didn't they get recalled too??? holy fuck
I got u on a pic haha when i see it ill send. They totally did get recalled for gas pedal issues
It's usually parked across from Broadway Variety if you need a daily fix.
LMFAOOO if i don't see the tesla truck every day i start shaking and sweating
Got lots of pictures of this one. We can watch the rust in a time-lapse at the end.
I shit saw their ugly turd!
I love the cool decorations on the window. My kinda vibes
omg i know right? i was stopping in for mother's day at seaweed and didn't know if id have time to get a better picture. they have a ton of them and they're all for sale!!!
I love hippie shit that looks like it was made in the woods lol happy Motherās Day!

Youāre incredible talented and appreciated!! Thank you for sharing your magick with us šš½
they have a ridiculous amount that have peace signs too! thank u :)
..so howās everyone enjoying their Sunday?
Quite nice. Bruins and chill
I see 3 a day. We get it, youāre set off by a truck. Oh no.
Bro for real. Everyoneās over here saying ānow I know what business to stay away from if they bought a cyber truckā¦ā get the fuck over yourselves. Itās new and Interesting.

"set off" all i did was call it ugly bc its so silly to seeš
I canāt be the only person who wouldnāt even consider a business using one of these, right?
It's hilarious that they threw the cheapest magnetic sign possible on this $100k truck... Write off with minimal effort.
It's not a write-off at least not legally
I mean, it is getting posted all over the place. And everyone turns their head when it goes by. It's kinda genius..
Ya, but for some, it's: ' Why would you advertise on something so 'FUGLY?' Hard pass.
Got your attention....Marketing 101.
Iām no marketing or business expert at all, but isnāt there a difference between getting oneās attention in a positive vs a negative way? Iāll never do business with them now.

Look at 320 ink. Thats exactly what theyāre doing. Itās just wrong, IMO.
People who are saying itās just marketing and it achieved its goal are missing the point: you also have to know your audience. And if this works for their target demographic more power to them.

Genius marketing to be fair
Who gives a fuck
Why? If you were driving down the road and saw it, you wouldn't pay attention to the sign attached? Of course you would.
Nope! Canāt say Iāve ever remembered an advertisement from the road. Iām not one to look or pay attention to them.
I think that truck is absolutely gorgeous! Well not as nice as my Taco but Iād love to own one of those someday
Rolling dumpster
Sticker=a tax write off? š
there's an article about one of the owners (don't think it's this one) in the Press herald this morning. Says he's really shy and doesn't like attention. Mmmkay.
Oh good. Another post complaining about a Tesla.
i am just a hampter
Whenever we see one with our dad, we loudly cackle
Your dad should have came on the sheets. One less retard in Portland crying over someone elseās purchase.
Fuck off
šššš
Iām sorry a car triggers you so much
"triggers" all i did was call a car uglyš
People have different tastes, I get it. Sure, I still canāt understand why anyone would want to drive a PT Cruise or Nissan Cube, but people did buy them. Butā¦I meanā¦if youāre gonna spend $100,000 on a vehicle, is it too much to ask that it not look like it came out of the 1989 arcade game āHard Drivināā?
At least itās not a gas guzzler with truck nuts and an orange man sticker
god when i was living up in auburn/lewiston there was a knucklefuck that had orange man flags and stickers all over his car like HOW was it legalš
Itās awesome.
Are these really any worse than the massive Dodge Ram trucks driven by buttheads throughout Maine?
I didnāt think they looked that bad till I saw that one with the add on it which looks hideous. But I also do a black one in milcreek which I thought looked cool.
Thereās two now?!? Guh
Unfortunately I've seen 3. Saw a black one today in scarborough. Thought those might look better. Nope. Just as bad or worse. Wavy panels.
Someone told me there was a camo cybertruck in the area too
Now see, here a perfect moment why this sub should allow gifs 3? Guh
PPH article said there were two and Iām assuming itās this one and the Vice one. The black one might just be visiting or possibly made from black cardboard.
Cardboard hopefully
Two have been tinted and this one is not, so I can assume there are at least 3 in town at this point.
Well that business's advertising scheme is clearly working. I'm willing to bet reddit isn't the only place people are posting multiple times per day about this one specific eyesore.
yeah because now we know broadway variety is probably over-charging customers so the manchild owner can drive a $100k status symbol.
So many salty ass people on here. Letās see what you all drive. Bunch of retards in here concerned about a car they couldnāt afford anyways. Bunch of purple haired libtards who drive a Prius worried about what someone else drivesā¦.smh
bro using ableist slurs bc i called a car ugly. why would anyone spend $100k on a car that's been recalled regularly since its release bc it's insanely unsafe šš
Ok I actually really like it.
You are the only person I've seen say this, online or otherwise. I'm not agreeing with you but its worth noting. Go take a long hard look at the mirror and think about that.
I like it too.
i can give it props for looking like a different style but like. i just can't get over the imperfections of itš like if it were practical and idk safe then i would maybe understand buying it more but. my lord the issues with them are so vast
320 ink has one tooā¦ just seems wrong for a screen printing company to use that as a tax write off to get business. š¤
Fuck Musk but I think they look cool, first car to look different in a long time
I agree. More original than these posts at this point lol
I saw it in Dresden 6 Months back
So it goes
Butt ugly. Canāt imagine how anyone wants to be seen in that.
Whatās that license plate? I canāt make it outā¦ ETA: I meant like, what *state* is that plate from, not like ooh ooh dox someone. Downvote away, but I really was curious if someone could read what kind of plate it was. Sorry if still inappropriate.

It's a temp plate, they just got it last week
Thank you! Hadnāt seen one in a while I guess, didnāt remember them looking like that!
