Mike Pungitore, a Cybertruck enthusiast from Massachusetts, says he really wants to buy the all-electric truck but is worried about how it might impact his job.
Mike works in landscaping and plans to use the Cybertruck as his work vehicle.
Due to the demands of his job, Mike says he regularly drives to customers’ homes to offer landscaping services to different clients.
Now he’s concerned that showing up in a Cybertruck at a job site might attract negative attention.
Mike adds that he truly wants a Cybertruck, and if it were just for his personal driving, he wouldn’t hesitate to buy the all-electric truck.
The conflicted Cybertruck fan shared his story on the Cybertruck Owners Only group on Facebook.
He writes…
“Hi everyone! I’m on the fence about getting a Cybertruck.
I own a landscaping business and visit clients’ homes to meet leads and sell jobs.
I’m wondering if driving a Cybertruck to a job site will negatively impact my business.
If it were just my personal truck, I wouldn’t care. It makes financial sense for me to get a Cybertruck, and I would use FSD every day with all the driving I do. I’m in Massachusetts.”
This is certainly an interesting concern; however, looking at the comments, most Cybertruck owners advised Mike to buy the all-electric truck.
Their argument is that if a customer wouldn’t want to work with him because he drives a Cybertruck, then he doesn’t need their business in the first place.
A fellow Cybertruck owner, Nicholas Dutko, writes…
“If someone doesn’t hire you because you own a Cybertruck, do you really want them as a client?
Seems like they would be a nightmare to work with if they cannot have common sense and think normally.”
Another Cybertruck owner, Dan ElDoueihi, seconds this sentiment, writing…
“I live in Massachusetts and have many friends who own landscaping companies, both big and small.
The one thing I can tell you is that none of them ever runs out of work. Your reputation depends on how you treat your customers and the quality of your work.
I don’t think any real client would refuse to hire you just because you drive a Cybertruck. If they do refuse, they’re actually doing you a favor by saving you from working with that client.

They’re probably the 10% of customers who make you dislike your job.”
A third Cybertruck owner, Brad Gardner, agrees, writing…
“There’s always going to be Cybertruck haters, but do you really need those mentally ill clients?
Get a cool wrap; you’ll love it for towing a trailer. I personally recommend the All-Wheel-Drive Cybertruck. Put it in the business name to section 179 it; you can still get the $7,500 EV credit this way as long as you take delivery before September 30 and meet the income threshold.
These are the Cybertruck owners who advised Mike that it’s okay to lose clients if they have an issue with him driving a Cybertruck to the work site.
However, other Cybertruck owners say that, let alone lose jobs, they’ve been able to close deals specifically because they drive a Cybertruck.
A fellow Cybertruck owner, Mariana Silva, writes…
“I’m also in Massachusetts. I’m a real estate agent, and I wrapped my Cybertruck with my business logo.
I attend open houses, and most people ask me to take pictures with the car. I haven’t lost any clients.
I did hear from a couple of clients asking if my fees would be higher because of the car I drive.
On another note, I closed a deal because the client saw my car and told me that if I wasn’t good at what I do, I wouldn’t be driving a Cybertruck.
It’s ridiculous how people still think Cybertrucks are expensive.
I drive a lot for work, and in a few towns, I’ve gotten the thumbs down.
I use FSD 95% of the time, and now Grok is also helping me with my work along the way. Pretty cool.
Another Cybertruck owner, Matt Scinto, seconds this sentiment, writing…
“I’m also in Massachusetts. I have a fairly public-facing job, own a Cybertruck, and have many liberal friends and acquaintances.
Most people are interested in the truck, and I haven’t had any negative experiences with people I know. One person who is strongly anti-Elon Musk took a ride on FSD, and I was blown away.”
Overall, looking at the comments, most Cybertruck owners say it’s okay to drive to clients’ homes in a Cybertruck. However, please let me know what you think in the comments.
