Police said 34 new Tesla Cybertrucks were damaged. The owner parked the exotic cars in a parking lot in Fort Lauderdale.
In an apparent vendetta against Elon Musk, a vandal, or vandals spray-painted an expletive and his name — “F— Elon” — on the ostentatious electric trucks starting at over $80,000 each.
“It was just one row and then it was a second row, and then a third row and a fourth row,” Adam Docktor, who works nearby, said.
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.
A devilishly devious plan sir.
you’re a wily one
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!
Well at least they are partially painted now which should help with the rust.
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.
Thankfully electrek.co has the uncensored version.
30 cybertrucks, one owner? Fucking spiders georg here
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.
That’s hardly a vandal. More like a freedom fighter.
Nice custom paint job
Beautiful 🥹
TIL Cybertrucks are exotic cars…

If it breaks in a car wash and takes 5 hours to reboot, that’s pretty exotic.
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
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.
Wow! Find out more by Googling “Elon Musk Florida Rule 34”!
Dylan Maxwell did it.
I mistook the trucks for dumpsters.
With this visual improvement to a cybertruck, I may be coaxed into buying one.
You were right the first time
What have dumpsters done to you…?
Ah, Cyberdumpsters, please. Branding, and that.
…mistook?
Yes, it’s the past tense of mistake.
I think they are saying that it wasn’t a mistake. lol
I think they are saying the cybertrucks are dumpsters
Agreed, that’s what I was going for
Police said 34 new Tesla Cybertrucks were damaged.
By Friday afternoon, the graffiti had been wiped off.
Social media influencers and passersby stopped to snap photos.
Fort Lauderdale police are now investigating the case.
What a rollercoaster
So I take it the trucks are now piles of rust then?
As before when they were merely potential piles of rust.
The spray paint on those was about as weather resistant as a the “stainless” steel
Just for info, spray paint you buy in shops now is shit because it’s basically water based
Under no circumstances should you search online for “2K” spray paint as it’s a two part paint, almost like epoxy resin and would be almost impossible to remove from a shitty pile of junk
Also worth noting: 2K is incredibly toxic and regular paint filter masks are useless for preventing it from getting into your lungs. It’s supposed to be used while wearing positive pressure ventilated PPE.
Probably not the best choice for redecoration on the move.
If i remember correctly the old spray paint is banned in a bunch of places because of graffiti.
