David Berg is a Cybertruck owner from Florida and says he was initially angry when he viewed the footage from his Cybertruck’s sentry camera showing a kid approaching his vehicle.
The young boy emerged from a white Jeep and fiddled with the windshield of David’s Cybertruck.
David says his initial thought was that the kid did something to harm his all-electric truck.
However, after speaking with some of his friends, David learned about Jeep owners and their tradition of leaving rubber ducks for one another as a sign of camaraderie.
Now, examining the Cybertruck’s Sentry Camera footage with this information, David can see that the kid who came out of the Jeep was holding a rubber duck to place on his vehicle rather than to vandalize it.
Not only that, the kid was even holding a rubber duck in the same teal color that David wrapped his Cybertruck.
The slightly embarrassed Cybertruck owner blames all the vandals for his initial apprehension and shares what happened on the Cybertruck Owners Only group on Facebook.
He writes…
“Man, the vandals have some of us on edge. I was initially livid when I saw footage of a kid who appeared to be rubbing something (snow cone?) on my windshield until a few friends informed me about the subculture among Jeep owners in America, where they leave rubber ducks on each other’s Jeeps if they like the Jeep. “
I have a teal-wrapped Cybertruck, and the kid left a teal “Cyberduck” on my car that I guess rolled off the hood or was taken before I returned.
I live in a small beach community on the Emerald Coast in Florida’s panhandle and have gotten almost all love but have been bracing myself for some of the spring breakers.
The last thing I thought it was was a duck before I was told of this longstanding tradition with Jeeps.”
Below his post, David shared a video of a white Jeep pulling up next to his Cybertruck. A young boy dressed in a yellow T-shirt and shorts exits the passenger side of the Jeep, approaches the Cybertruck, and leaves something behind.
In addition to the video, David also shares a still picture showing that the kid was indeed holding a teal-colored rubber duck that he left on his Cybertruck.
This is a positive turn of events; however, even more surprisingly, other Cybertruck owners have reported finding rubber ducks left for them by complete strangers in parking lots.
A fellow Cybertruck owner, Steve from Las Vegas, says he has also found a rubber duck left for him on his Cybertruck.
However, similar to David, Steve says he was initially suspicious and did not touch the duck until he could examine the Sentry Camera footage to confirm that the duck was not left there with bad intentions.
Steve writes…
“I found a giant purple duck on my Cybertruck. I didn’t touch it until after I watched the video. Kids love this thing!”
Below his post, Steve also shared a video taken by his Cybertruck’s sentry camera showing two kids approaching his truck with a large purple rubber duck in hand.
Looking at the comments, fellow Cybertruck owners were happy with this gesture of support.
A fellow Cybertruck owner, Devi Brandl, writes…
“This is so sweet… I feel like crying…Awwww. Amid all this hatred… Something that truly touches your heart… And I know it’s just a simple gesture, but…”
Another Cybertruck owner, Gabe Smith, says he’ll be leaving a rubber duck on every Cybertruck he encounters.
He writes…
“Every time I see a Cybertruck, I’m going to leave a rubber duck to make the owner think something bad happened, but in all reality, it’s just a rubber ducky.”
