You might think that driving a Cybertruck is already a bold move, but there’s much more that can be done!
Kumait Jaroje, a resident of Massachusetts, decided to take extravagance to its extreme with his electric pickup… painted gold. Not just a hint of metallic shimmer, no. A real rolling mirror, shiny enough to rival a disco ball under the sun.
On his social media, Jaroje describes feeling sad that this rolling work of art attracts more trouble than admiration. On X (formerly Twitter) he complains about constant hostility since acquiring his precious jewel, notably mentioning an insulting sticker stuck on his vehicle. However, judging by the photo he shared, the sticker actually says “Nazis fuck off,” a message that isn’t exactly controversial in itself unless taken personally or, worse, if one has more than questionable beliefs.
That said, between the already controversial Cybertruck and this ostentatious paint choice, it’s no surprise that heated minds are expressing themselves. It’s not just a car; it’s a rolling provocation for other drivers, tired and stuck in traffic, who must witness this blinding golden spectacle.
The pinnacle? Jaroje claims that problems worsened after Elon Musk publicly supported Trump and made remarks akin to a bad sketch about German history. Since then, Jaroje states that his car has become a magnet for anger: finger gestures, insults, roadside confrontations…
Let’s be clear, acts of vandalism and threats, especially in the presence of children, are unacceptable. But it must be acknowledged that if the goal was to go unnoticed, our friend totally missed the mark. Between Musk’s politics and the glaring bad taste of a gold vehicle, he seems to have found the perfect recipe to polarize crowds. Oh, just one small detail: Jaroje uses his Cybertruck for promotional purposes for his plastic surgery center! We kind of suspected it too…
Morale: sometimes it’s better to avoid turning an already controversial car into a flashy billboard. And if you still choose to do so, expect a fierce reaction from the taste police…
