One's character is not determined by the vehicle they drive.

Actually, quite clever. Our obsession with vehicles we think we need is real. Sometimes it takes a basic look at something to see the light.
Right now, the Cybertruck is the thing. Next year, it will be something else. Rinse and repeat.
Funny tidbit... I was at Yosemite last month and a Cybertruck was charging a few spots over in the lodge parking lot. Many people were going over to look at it and take selfies. It was my first chance to see one up close, so I stopped by a few hours later to have a look. When I peaked through the heavily tinted front window, there was a guy spread out in the back seat on his tablet. I was like whoa.... no one had moved or gotten out of the truck all afternoon. Not what I had expected!

Oh I agree there are a lot of stereotypes....even though I myself don't think much of the idea of them to start with. But the Cybertruck, in some ways, is still too new to have any real stereotypes yet.

Even the Toyota Prius, which had one of the most established stereotypes in automotive history (environmentalists, college professors, librarians, Hollywood celebrities, etc...) took several years to develop that reputation.
