That’s hardly a vandal. More like a freedom fighter.

TIL Cybertrucks are exotic cars...
Police said 34 new Tesla Cybertrucks were damaged. The owner parked the **exotic **cars in a parking lot in Fort Lauderdale.
One definition of exotic is "intriguingly unusual or interesting"
I think thats a fair description of the design. Doesnt mean people have to like them, or that they are well built.
Many exotic cars have been terribly built and ive seen super cars that i think are much uglier than cybertruck... And just about every saab car ive ever seen
If it breaks in a car wash and takes 5 hours to reboot, that’s pretty exotic.
30 cybertrucks, one owner? Fucking spiders georg here
Nice custom paint job
Well at least they are partially painted now which should help with the rust.
Etching fluid would be a better choice, take .002-.003” off over the course of a night and no one would know until the sun hit it just right.
Might need a battery if you want to speed things up, but I think it’d work for a quick tag too.
Wow! Find out more by Googling "Elon Musk Florida Rule 34"!
Amateurs. You don't spray paint them, they'll just clean it off.
What you do, is place a stencil with “fuck Elon” on them, spray rust protective clear lacquer over the general area, and remove the stencil.
They won't notice until the next time it rains, when the words will show up in bright rust orange, much more harder to remove than any spray paint, and much harder to trace to you.
Seems like an awful lot of work when a can of expanding foam squirted in the right places will disable most anything mechanical and is much more difficult to remove.
The point isn't to disable them, it's to write “fuck Elon” on them. 🤷♂️
(Plus, they're A.— electric vehicles, so not that many mechanical bits to disable, B.— Teslas, so they already do a pretty good job of getting disabled all by themselves, and C.— cybertrucks, so they already come pretty pre-disabled by design, the poor things.)
Truly a truck for the do-it-yourselfer!
you're a wily one
A devilishly devious plan sir.
Beautiful 🥹
Fuck, now I have to say fuck ten time to balance out the five censored fucks in this fucking post. Fuck this fucking noise, you're allowed to say fuck on the fucking internet for fuck's sake. Fuck.
I ignored the colon the first run through and I was trying to understand if the police hnd a vandals unit that went around fucking shit up. It kinda seems plausible. Then I reread it and noticed the colon.
Made your daddy proud... Proud...
so proud of my boy
