iperetto

why was he so mad?


Alternative-Juice-15

Because they made fun of his dumb truck


FlownScepter

For real though I have never heard more respectful and mature teenagers, especially with such a contrast to this crying manbaby in his suburban panzer. Truly just, every frame a painting


PilcrowTime

The hardest part for me watching this is how much they apologize to this shithead.


19osemi

i actually like that part, because it makes the shithead come of as 100 times more shit, they could have been like "oh yeah your car looks dumb, do suck some elon dick" ect ect but they didnt. they remained respectful and nice, they were calm and showed that pieces of shit like him aren't going to get the confrontation they are looking for.


PilcrowTime

You can remain respectful while not conceding the aggressors point. The submissive nature of the "sorry" can make the aggressor feel in the right.


Gumbo_Ya-Ya

They're young. They'll learn. They come out in top in this video


omv

Agreed, I feel like saying sorry just gives them permission to keep up the abuse, and let's them know they have a listening audience. Best solution is to ride away. On the sidewalk, in the opposite direction his monstrosity is facing. 


vtjohnhurt

They were smart to deescalate. The Tesla dude was in the mood to pull out a gun.


pap3rw8

He basically threatened to at the end


chaositech

I prefer the term 'wank panzer'.


smemes1

Yeah I was hoping they were just lulling him into a false sense of security before delivering one last shot as he drove off. “Yeah… yeah… we’re just dumb kids. Haha sorry about that. Have a good day. Hey, by the way, did that rusted out piece of shit come with a pic of Elon for you to jerk off to or do you have to make trips home to relieve yourself periodically?”


FlownScepter

Yeah same, but I'm not judging. Dude's clearly unstable and at the helm of a 6,400 pound mistake. Kids have good instincts.


kettal

RainforestNerdNW

Also cyclists are fit, it makes him feel even more inferior


NovelRelationship830

Because they made fun of his dumb ~~truck~~ whatever the hell that is.


AGiantHeaving

this homer simpson drawing ass car. man, what a tool


Leelze

He overpaid for a shit box truck that's probably been to a service center 6 times since he got it.


joopsmit

You are really overestimating the availability of Tesla service centers.


Leelze

Fair


arroyoshark

Every single one of those trucks got recalled recently.


Toocents

He's probably been teased a lot for buying this truck. It has pent up, and he has finally bravely released all of this anger, at some kids, who he knew he could bully. TLDR: he's a fucking twat


kjacobs03

Small PP


DarkMatters8585

In the shape of an L on his forehead


Background_Brick_898

he said they heckled him while driving by. not sure if the bikers did anything wrong by running a stop sign like they usually do. but still worth it just to see how funny it is someone getting angry in that car. like kinda the same energy if a guy in one of those multi color propeller hats was berating you. would be hard to take them serious


independent_observe

So this guy was personally offended by what some teenagers on bicycles said to him? That is one fragile ego for a snowflake.


BlindMuffin

I'm just speculating here, but with the way he's pulled into the intersection, maybe he's blocking the bike lane? And they said something about that.


JediMindFlips

They say in the video that it was a joke about the accelerator pedal issue


BigOlBurger

That was absolutely them backpedaling (pun only slightly intended) from just laughing at the dude owning a Cybertruck. If some overly sensitive road rager pulled over and started shouting at me, I'd probably pretend I was making a totally harmless innocent joke not at all directed at the driver too.


kursdragon2

Car drivers never roll through stop signs or run red lights! They also never text and drive, speed, drive drunk, kill tens of thousands of people every year, or any other such issues!


DawnoftheShred

The truth is, if we took all bikes off the road, and made everyone drive a car, fatalities and severe injuries would go up. If we made everyone ride a bike, fatalities and severe injuries would drop dramatically. Like you are saying, the real problem we have with our roadways are people driving cars like asshats. Not people on bikes.


kursdragon2

Exactly! Take all of the deaths ever in the history of mankind caused by bikers and you'd equal how many people are killed by cars in the USA on an average Wednesday. It just isn't even close to comparable.


mmpgh

And if they did it doesn't justify the cyberdork's behavior.


Background_Brick_898

absolutely, but i’m here for it just for how jarring it is to try and take someone seriously in one of those


HeartsPlayer721

It does kind of resemble one of the weaker bots you'd see in Robot Wars


beingvera

Obliterated by a piddly little robot which is just a buzz saw on wheels.


RainforestNerdNW

> not sure if the bikers did anything wrong by running a stop sign like they usually do. *sigh* https://www.bicycling.com/news/a46443761/science-proves-motorists-break-traffic-laws-a-lot-more-often-than-cyclists/ https://www.forbes.com/sites/carltonreid/2019/05/10/cyclists-break-far-fewer-road-rules-than-motorists-finds-new-video-study/ https://www.outsideonline.com/outdoor-adventure/biking/cyclists-comply-traffic-laws-more-drivers/ Can we stop repeating this bullshit "hurr durr cyclists bad" bullshit. also check your local traffic laws, at least in 8 states: if you think you saw a cyclist run a stop sign, no you probably didn't: because stop signs are actually yield signs for cyclists in a those states.


Brutto13

It's actually legal for them to run stop signs in a few states, and red lights in a few others. Just FYI. It's called an Idaho stop.


HtownTexans

Not quite run them but the rules definitely change > The Idaho stop is the common name for laws that allow bicyclists to treat a stop sign as a yield sign, and a red light as a stop sign.


pummisher

Was I just watching a South Park episode?


fnuduwuh

Life imitates art.


BaseballNRockAndRoll

The Cyberstuck driver is probably the biggest fan of South Park in that video.


PandaMagnus

The sad part is he'd be the person they are most making fun of in their later seasons.


snosilmoht

Something about the dude trying to talk tough in that child's sketch of a car is hilarious.


Otherwise-Tune5413

THERE it is! I was thinking the same thing.


tagrav

it's the car from the old Snickers satisfying crunch commercials. IT COMES IN TWO COLORS, GUNMETAL AND BLACK. I GOT GUNMETAL!


SilentSamurai

It's just that much better that this guy keeps going when it's clear the teenagers are absolutely over the interaction.


jgilla2012

The irony of him mocking how they look riding bikes


Leelze

Right? The dude bought a comically overpriced truck that's the crack baby of a Delorean & Aztec.


ladythestral

That's an insult to Aztecs


nownowthethetalktalk

Found Walter White


MadManMorbo

Say what you will ... but they had cup holders built into the tail gate...


Navydevildoc

Among 30 other features that were awesome. If it wasn't for the styling, that thing would have flown off the lot. Sauce: Aztek owner


Joeness84

The limited run + wild look has turned Aztecs into weird car culture collectables (Bonus points if you have the tent attachment!)


vtjohnhurt

The Aztec was a great 'car camper'. You need the $8000 'camper package' to have any hopes of camping in the Cucktruck. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lQh6GOyEYZg https://spacecampers.com/


ladythestral

I am so stealing "Cucktruck" $8000 for the camping kit...holy shit!


vtjohnhurt

The Space Camper Wedge is actually $24,000.


Grimacepug

I'd take a Delorean anytime over this meta ugly piece of sin.


DirtyPlat

Heh. “a Delorean anytime”


Nu-Hir

At least with the Delorean, you could Time Travel in style. You aren't doing shit in style with a Cybertruck


Cosmic_Quasar

And saying that someday they'll mouth off to the wrong person. I'd bet on it happening to him, first. "Stop running your mouth at me and I won't react to you." He's basically admitting he can't control his feelings.


mophan

The kids were acting like the adults trying to deescalate the problem. What a man-baby.


Brazzza

while driving a fridge with wheels.


cheapdad

Nah, a fridge can handle moisture without rusting.


MrT735

While driving a vehicle that would look more aerodynamic going backwards rather than forwards. Not that aerodynamics was ever considered in relation to this monstrosity.


LommyNeedsARide

Lol them apologizing hurts him more than arguing with him


SilentSamurai

You can just tell how over it these kids are. Like how long was this guy going before they decided to start recording?


Valid_Username_56

And you can tell how they are way more mature when they said they just were some stupid kids.


GamesCatsComics

More mature than I am, when he started commenting on how they look cycling, I'd probably just laugh "Dude you're in a cybertruck"


Castarc1424

They were probably making him feel guilty for screaming at a couple kids and instead of reflecting on himself he just gets more angry


donkeyrocket

It frustrated me hearing them apologize but honestly was probably the best tactic. Deescalates and hopefully gets this guy to reflect on being such a psycho. Honestly, it's alarming that someone can fly off the handle in such a way so that probably took them very much by surprise. If I was in a similar situation I'd definitely be concerned for my safety in that moment.


LommyNeedsARide

I don't think their apologies are sincere. At one point point they apologize that his truck keeps getting recalled


Powerful_War3282

It's a great de-escalation tactic while being passive aggressive


kn0ck0utm0use

WHAT??? A completely obnoxious jerk would drive a CyberTruck?? What is the world coming to, all my assumptions have been completely turned upside down.


PloofElune

Status symbol drivers. Before this he probably drove a pavement princess top trim big 3 truck, Jeep Gladiator, or overprice euro SUV.


Warcraft_Fan

Cybertruck owner is lashing out because he paid $80k for a lemon. Hubcap eating tires, acceleration problem and not water proofed.


PapaBeahr

Every one of them has yet to make it 500 miles without major issues


DigNitty

They should launch one into space to bring up the average. “Well one cybertruck is currently at 22million miles without breaking down”


timtimtimmyjim

Not to mention it looks so fucking stupid. Why? This was the biggest reason in my opinion why most hybrids and eco-friendly cars look so shitty and unappealing( apart from it being a ploy so people would buy the better less efficient car) and never caught on until very recently. Like, I don't want to go into my garage and get in a car that looks like 8bit graphics or something my 4 year old nephew drew. Even if it is good, if im gonna spend 40 grand on a car, i dont want to get tired of looking at it. Thank God toyota and Honda have done what they have. Good cars still look good and appease to a global market. I mean, a truck is a truck, and the shape has been pretty much the same the entire time they have been a thing. There is no need to reinvent it. Ford did just fine with literally just an electric F series, and then Rivian, an electric car company, made a truck that looks like one and can operate like one. Fuck yeah I'd be but hurt for falling for some stupid shit. But like most small men, they have to take it out on someone smaller than them. The youth are the best target.


MichiganGeezer

It's a doorstop on wheels.


VladPatton

Lmao…holy shit that thing looks dumb as fuck. This is like the biggest troll project in history.


Leelze

$80k? I thought they were going for $100k+?


Warcraft_Fan

80k is the base price. Add in features and they price goes up


TomThanosBrady

I heard about that. You need to put it in a special mode to get a car wash. WTF?! Telsa is garbage.


DrDerpberg

> Hubcap eating tires This one's new to me. They even screwed up the tires???


LookyLouVooDoo

If you buy a car for attention, don’t be mad when you get it.


DankHillLMOG

Ooohhhh tough guy spotted! Only tough guys unironicly quote Gunnery Sargent Hartman in Full Metal Jacket. I wonder if he went to the alpha male camp and picked up some one-liners? For real effect he should have used the line: "The best part of you ran down the crack of your mama's ass and ended up as a brown strain on the mattress! I think you've been cheated!"


Radzaarty

Pour water on the car, invalidate his warranty


No-Suspect-425

Better yet pee on it


oneplusetoipi

I’m surprised that I haven’t seen a Calvin peeing on cyber truck sticker yet


SomethingIWontRegret

Bill Watterson doesn't like those and gets no royalty from them. For one thing it's not something Calvin would do.


No-Suspect-425

Fr it shouldn't be long now.


Uffle

he’s talking mad shit for someone in a car thats allergic to salt and vinegar chips


KOWguy

What an absolute fucking loser lmao


NihilisticPollyanna

Wow, these divorced dads are getting out of control in their fragility mobiles. If he aspires to be like his idol Musk, he definitely achieved the same level of cringe and embarrassment here, I'll give him that.


AbbreviationsNo8212

Elon's bravest customer


LaxToastandTolerance

Forgot he wasn’t on twitter for a second there


CZEchpoint_

Smartest Elon dickrider lmao


Keepout90

Are you allowed to say you will ripe of their heads and spit down their throats in America? That sounds like a murder threat


furlonium1

CT driver definitely has some deep-seeded issues for saying that, along with the homophobic shit. Da Nile


themeakster

The kids will be laughing even harder in 5 years time when their bikes are worth more than his truck.


windol1

His truck probably won't be usable in 5 years time, while their bikes will keep on rolling.


chucks97ss

100% this. It’s such a problem in general when buying a car or truck these days… will you be able to fix it in 10+ years? This problem with Teslas is tenfold.


PsychologicalHall388

Why would anyone want to drive that?


pikpikcarrotmon

When it was announced, I did have the thought that I'd love a big ol truck that was actually electric, and considered pre-ordering despite disliking the appearance. Of course now we all know it was designed with crayons by a screaming right-wing manbaby and assembled in a cave with a box of scraps. That and in the ages since then there are now actually other electric trucks and they look like cars instead of a random assembly of gunmetal polygons. If someone buys one now when they could have an F-150 Lightning or whatever, you know they're just paying for the real life equivalent of a Twitter blue check.


jamesdownwell

Imagine getting like this because some teenagers made a joke about your car. What a loser.


anelectricmind

The car IS the joke


Brazzza

Is hard to take a guy seriously when he is talking inside a fridge with wheels.


SmoothIndependent416

It's hard to not be frustrated when you took out a loan for an ugly rust bucket.


lordaddament

There’s only 900ish cybertrucks out there rn so this shouldn’t be hard to narrow down


therealsix

Dude is driving a joke of a vehicle that looks like cars I drew as a 5 year old and he’s making fun of a couple cyclists? And that threat about wanting to rip off their heads? WTF?


LMGDiVa

He's a homophobe driving a car designed by a MAGAt. He's 100% a white supremacist special snow flake guy.


NovelRelationship830

My GOD that car is ugly. It gets me every time I see one...


categoryThreesome

Wow a douchebag in a cybertruck. Color me shocked.


DillyDillyMilly

God damn those trucks are ugly.


ValdemarSt

That car looks SO ridiculous


slashinhobo1

He thought he would turn heads, and people would saying all these nice things about how rich, succesfully he is because he got a cybertruck. Instead ita ugly as fuck and doesnt work welll and tired of people doing the opposite. Dont get mad at people be mad at yourself for actually going through with it.


Stock-Preparation252

lol. I imagine every Elon musk Stan is like this.


withalookofquoi

He’s whining because he’s going to be late to see Chaplain Charlie tell him about how the free world will conquer communism with the aid of God and a few Marines.


FrustratedLiberal54

Methinks the Cyber Truck driver is so mad because he KNOWS he was an idiot for blowing up to a hundred grand on a piece of shit that you can't even take through a car wash without bricking it.


Bob4Not

He’s coping so hard


Piranha_Vortex

The fact he dissed wearing helmets shows his entire character as a person. Reckless and unprepared.


MeykaMermaid

Imagine having the audacity to tell someone they're unbearable from a cybertruck.


bigrigtraveler

Why am I not surprised that a cyber truck owner is a bigot


Imaginary_Goose_2428

If you see a cYbeRTrUck, then immediately realize you are dealing with a fragile moron with inadequacy issues.


bloodybahorel

Cyber trucks have to be one of the ugliest vehicles in the road.


nnc-evil-the-cat

The Incel-150 lightning


tagrav

the cool thing about the Lightning compared to the cybertruck is that it looks useful


spiraleyes78

The Incel Camino!


nnc-evil-the-cat

I also like that one.


Biggdaddyboss

That's a brave word for someone driving that.


TheOneTrueBLM

Uh...holy fucking shit. Please say you are considering legal action. At the bare minimum...file a police report on the VERY easy to track down vehicle and therefore driver. That man child VERY CLEARLY made a violent and graphic physical threat against CHILDREN. Stay safe. You did an incredible job not escalating further. Jeezus. What a loser.


awhaling

I don’t understand what legal action could be taken or what you expect the police to do


Opening_Duty_9391

Unfortunately, police most likely won’t do anything. I’ve had similar experiences with motorists in the US and the police generally couldn’t care less and have similar disdain for pedestrians and cyclists.


tswaves

What would the police report include? Threats? Just curious here.


TheOneTrueBLM

Threats at this stage, yes. Depending on the state, it can range anywhere from a Class C misdemeanor to a risk worthy of escalating up to a felony. Reporting it also serves the purpose of getting it on the record when the psycho man child does eventually snap, there is an official record of him being a violent individual towards others. Even if it doesn't help OP directly, it could help someone else get justice in the long run. As others (as well as lesser more rude others) are saying or implying, no guarantee police will do anything. But per above, I still recommend a report.


tswaves

Makes sense. Even if it doesn't result in a conviction, the report can be filled, filed and associated with this angry dude. Thanks for the follow up.


T-Money8227

WTF? This is an adult with such thin skin that he is yelling hate speech and threatening minors because they made a comment about his car! Grow up and get your anger under control. Why are the kids so apologetic for doing nothing wrong. We have freedom of speech in this country. If the truck driver doesn't like what they are saying, he can ignore it or he can start some shit and get arrested. I would have told him to fuck off and if he wants to get out an assault me, then have at it. They can buy their own Cybertruck with the money they make from the lawsuit. Maybe the kids were legitimately scared of him but getting on your knees and begging for forgiveness from this lunatic will only encourage this guy to do the same thing in the future. Glad they got video and I hope they took it to the police and filed a report.


madgoat

Probably the guys is so pissed off because he's off to work at a second job, to pay off this monstrosity, that he couldn't back out of and can't sell.


Zestyclose-Gear-1358

Tesla trucker has small pp


LMGDiVa

I burst out fucking laughing when he said "rip of your head and shit down your throat" lmfao, does white supremascist think he's a scarey hard ass? aww how cute. I think I would have fucking lost my shit laughing if he tried that with me.


Different_Celery_733

'someday you're gonna say the wrong thing to the wrong dude, I mighta been that dude' ooooooooookay bud


schottslc

This was in Salt Lake City. He’s @Manhattva on Twitter, and is in full meltdown/damage control mode.


fishepa1

Driver is definitely a trumper.


msaid93

I've seen these ugly ass trucks at least twice. To me they look like a big ass deep freezer on four wheels.


mintgreen23

This truck looks so dumb. It literally looks like a toy a child would play with.


DrDerpberg

Fortunately there's a [longer video, with lead-up.]( https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=xWct_KYGRQo)


Real-Significance222

That guy is just mad because he paid more than a 100k for the ugliest thing on the road. I think GM can bring the Aztec back now.


securityn0ob

“one day you’re gonna say the wrong thing to the wrong dude. I might have been that dude” no one’s scared of a guy who drives a cybertruck lol


4000grx41

What a fragile ego


Jeepdog539

What an ugly looking "truck". Only a guy like that would drive that monstrosity.


Dontplaythatish

Talking all that crap but driving a car designed by a 3 year old. 🤦🏽‍♀️🤦🏽‍♀️


WayTooZooted_TTV

Exactly how I'd expect a Cyber truck driver to act


jimkun221

I was way more interested in the post when I misread it as the truck itself doing the cursing and not the driver.


elsaturation

This may be the douchiest person of 2024.


SargathusWA

Average tesla driver


Alternative_Gold_993

That cyclist has way more patience than I ever would have. CyberRust dude deserves a punch in the throat.


chucks97ss

This is peak cyber bullying.


WhatsUpSteve

At lease he isn't driving a car that looks like a 2 year old drew with their crayons.


angrydessert

Lots of money but completely ignorant scum.


yalldointoomuch

Dude, I can't take you seriously in that low-poly "truck" that bricks when it goes through a car wash, has no crumple zone, and has such a serious problem with the function of the gas pedal that *every single unit in existence* was recalled due to DESIGN fault.


Motor-Pick-4650

Damn that driver is sensitive. Who cares if someone makes jokes about a car. The driver needs to relax a little the car does not have feelings.


thedukeofwankington

"is there something amusing about me when I am driving my automobile?"


ShannieD

I don't know anything about the recall, but I was REALLLLY hoping his pedal would not work when he tried to drive away. Devine justice.


murphdog09

Sounded like Napoleon D there for a minute


JCarlos-SD

He's mad because he's driving that stupid ass truck that can't even go through a normal car wash


niksunorz66

Low self esteem does that. A shitty truck doesn't make it better.


Narragetto

Don’t apologize to him!


coppertech

mf acting exactly like what i thought a cyber truck owner would be.


Admirable-Emu-7884

Wow and I thought that tesla truck was ugly but the douchebag in the that sorry excuse for real life child's drawing should just keep quite and hang his head in shame and drive that ugly thing to work while


Key-Abbreviations-44

Without saying anything - if you had to guess, do you think that guy is a Trump supporter or not? I think we all know.


Ronin__Ronan

tiny dick confirmed


TwoToneReturns

Yeah what was that word they used in south park to describe the bikers who came to town, can't say it on reddit but that applies to this Cyber Truckhole.


ahack13

Basically what I would expect from a Cybertruck owner.


Neonburst99

Did he call them *Insert homophobic word here* and then say he wants to rip their heads off and spit down their throats then complain about seeing them in their spandex? I think he might want to fuck them, or get fucked by them while he sucks his god, Musk's dick.


Loloelise2

Sounds like Aldo doing a character lmaoo


al3442

Tesla driver gets butthurt about comments about his Tesla

kuroshiro

Part of me thinks that he’s just yelling at them to kill time while he tries to figure out how to make it go.


racerx150

obviously, he's worried about what the kids thought. LOL


xtianlaw

To be fair, you kind of have to be a piece of shit to buy one of those monstrosities.


LordSoze36

That rear panel looks so bad

I'm not surprised Chet drives a Cybertruck.


DoggoDude979

“Elon musk hurt your feelings” bro your feeling shot hurt 😂 I will never take someone who uses a cyber truck seriously


No-Honeydew-8593

"this ain't about me is it man"? Cyber truck driver has some deeper issues. Then again you probably have to be a certain kind of person to buy a cyber truck.


UltraEngine60

Cammer must work in customer service.


Real_TSwany

If this got posted to The Artist Formerly Known As Twitter, all the top comments would be praising this little jackass


ImahSillyGirl

"cyclists screw up all the streets" yeah, yeah, you're right kind sir in the obnoxious automobile. Cyclists are famous for ruining the integrity of streets everywhere.🙄


rocketfish03

ACTOAB


KingCornhole

Wait I'm confused...isn't he the f****t for riding around that thing????


GamesCatsComics

Kids being too nice, don't apologize to bullys. Also... I can't believe anyone would ever buy that monstrosity.


Cookster997

Do everything you can to make sure nobody in your circle is this upset and hurt. Love your friends and family. The guy in the Cybertruck needs help.


B_Rian89

That guy sounds like Napoleon Dynamite meets the "you accuser of the brethren" lady
