"It's the best truck I've ever had?"

They're a desk rider for sure.

When I was a kid my grandparents had a ~30 year old truck for farm work that had part of the floorboard rusted out, and it was almost certainly a better truck (it could handle farm work, for one). Also probably less likely to trap anyone inside it and burn them to death.

Shows up in a 100K vehicle, probably not great with money and gonna over charge on the work.

It's the best truck I've ever had

So... They've never had any other truck? Even a tuktuk is a better truck.

[–] Lemminary@lemmy.world 36 points 2 months ago (1 children)

What they mean is that it makes them feel special. And different. Ugh, you just don't get it, dad. 🙄

Holy shit the Cybertruck is conservative blue hair

If you're a roofer and think the CT is the "best truck ever", then that tells me you never do any work and sub contract to actual roofers.

[–] pyre@lemmy.world 23 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

yeah there's no way anyone who's actually done any work with a truck would think this fucking abomination that can barely function as a motor vehicle at all, let alone as a truck, is the best one ever.

Thank you for your trust!

I... what tips and tricks does this person think they're going to get? You either sell the car, or you stop bringing it with you. There's no third option. Is disguising it a third option? Wrap it in a little rubber chicken costume?

People would ask questions like this in reddit AMAs all the time, too, and I just don't understand the impulse to ask strangers online before you've thought about it yourself even a little bit.

Took me a minute to understand what I'm looking at

[–] null_dot@lemmy.dbzer0.com 31 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Those are the obvious practical options but the real solution to this problem is to firstly embrace the notion that people with differing views to yours are not necessarily idiots and secondly make a genuine attempt at understanding why customers could find a mere choice of vehicle abhorrent enough to choose another roofer.

I mean, when customers are leaving, it's a great time to learn more about your market and in the attempt you might grow as a person.

[–] ysjet@lemmy.world 22 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

Because they don't want actual advice, they want to see their opinions underneath your username so they feel validated.

[–] some_guy@lemmy.sdf.org 7 points 2 months ago

Hey! Don't blame me for wanting some magical third option. /s

All dumpsterness aside, it just looks like fuckin amateur hour with that decal on the door compared to the truck you can see parked in front of it. And I'm pretty sure the decal is slightly misaligned.

[–] SkaveRat@discuss.tchncs.de 49 points 2 months ago

And I’m pretty sure the decal is slightly misaligned

it's likely that the decal is straight, but the door is misaligned

[–] AZERTY@feddit.nl 20 points 2 months ago

That's so it can qualify as a work vehicle without the commitment of wrapping the thing then he gets to take the company car home and just take the magnet off.

[–] mrgoosmoos@lemmy.ca 6 points 2 months ago

The decal is aligned to the bend in the panel, but that bend is not perpendicular to the rear edge of the panel so it looks weird

Why worry? Just let nature take its course and in a few months it'll be a smoldering pile of rubble.

I mean that statement would do even more to make me not trust his business. You think I'm going to trust the roof built by a guy who thinks the cybertrucks the best truck he's ever owned? Peeling panels off that dumb thing, what the hell is the roof going to be like then?

[–] baggins@lemmy.ca 31 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Big "we've tried nothing and we're all out of ideas" energy with this one

Doctor it hurts when I do this

[–] okwhateverdude@lemmy.world 9 points 2 months ago

I have one fart's worth of empathy for the idiot, though. He is likely massively upside down on the loan since those things are toxic and have shit resell value. He is probably financially stuck with it. And this is simply unstated/implied in the post.

[–] asg101@lemmy.ca 27 points 2 months ago (1 children)

The more proud nazis that buy swasticars the easier it is to figure out who NOT to do business with. More power to them!

[–] Raiderkev@lemmy.world 23 points 2 months ago (3 children)

My kid's tee ball coach has one he uses to advertise his construction business with. I have made it a point to not bring it up with him, because I get the feeling he's a big Trump guy. We are in one of the bluest places on the planet. I'm amazed he hasn't figured out it's a business liability, not an asset to drive around in that stupid shit box. Even if there was no Elon propping up dictators in the US, it's objectively a shitty truck that can't do truck things, so if the guy I've contracted to do an addition shows up in a $100k truck that can't haul anything it's pretty clear that he's not doing anything other than sitting back and counting money while his crew does all the work, and I'm overpaying to ensure he continues to have cybertruck buying money. Add to that the fact that Elon is propping up dictators in the US, and you are alienating in this area, probably 80% of your customer base by driving a car that is the embodiment of maga is just beyond stupid. I hope his business goes under.

[–] ChickenLadyLovesLife@lemmy.world 11 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Where I live, the Harris signs outnumbered Trump signs by about 30:1. We had a contractor show up to bid on repainting our kitchen cabinets and he had a huge Trump 2024 flag mounted in the back of his truck and a "Fuck Your Feelings" sticker on the back window. My mom is the most good-natured person on the planet but she wouldn't even let him in the house.

A bright business man might turn this problem around by buying another truck for his business, an even brighter one would then start a new business doing the exact same thing except this new business only does roofing for nazi's and an even brighter one might charge these nazi's extra because he comes by your house in a secondhand (wink wink) swastikar.

[–] The_Che_Banana@beehaw.org 14 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Besides the fact it's a nazi auto, if some company came to my home to fix something and they were in a vehicle at a stupid high price point I would reconsider.

The fact that it is a swasticar also shows legitimate concern about the judgement of said company.

Lol I just read this in a Russian accent, sounds pretty legit.

"I in Atlanta" is flawless redneck.

[–] grue@lemmy.world 13 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago) (2 children)

I hadn't noticed that part. I'm also in Atlanta, and I'm overdue for a new roof, so I'm making a mental note to be sure to avoid this company.

Edit: also a 205 (Alabama, apparently) area code, LOL. Fuckin' johnny-come-lately can't even bother getting a proper Atlanta phone number? Legit long-established businesses would have a 404 or maybe a 770.

How about get an actual truck ?

Stupid LIBTARDS trying to Cancel a Hard Working HONEST Man! Just because he wants TRANS KIDS to DIE doesn't mean he's a BAD PERSON or a BAD WORKER! STOP being so Divisive and GIVE Him your Money! Has he tried SUING yet?

"Blue Angels"? This dude probably has never flown a jet. Just a desk.
