I finally saw one in real life. On the highway. It's shocking how aggressively dumb they look in person. Photos don't do it justice. It seriously looks like a giant unrendered N64... thing.
I was walking to the grocery store when I saw a neighbour polishing his in front of his house. I said "Wow, a Cybertruck," and he replied, "Cool, isn't it?"
I said, "No, it's a $120,000 go-kart made of scrap metal that will rust in a month."
Edit: sounds fake but I do have a picture of the car in question, but I took it on a different day—
That neighbor? Albert Einstein.
"The neighbors for miles around stepped out at the sound of his boisterous ejaculation mocking the ugly car, applause was heard throughout the evening."
Why would I make up the number 1 most common interaction between a Cybertruck owner and a normal person?
But here's a picture I took of his car while he was attending church (across the street from the grocery store):
And yes, you can tell it is new because it doesn't have a number plate yet.
The picture was taken on 30 March, the interaction happened a few days earlier
No one's questioning that you saw a Cybertruck, just that you actually said those things to the owner.
