Yes, but I wish I didn't.

Taken literally, the answer is clearly 'clickbait'

I'm confused by the first car on the trailer, not the Cybertruck. It doesn't look like any sort of brand that I know. I think that's probably what @roadman65 is referring to. Maybe one of the car geeks on here would know?

For what it's worth, those three cars are an utterly insane combination of cars to have on a trailer.

Looks like a MV-1, which was apparently a short-lived car made primarily for wheelchair transport. I hadn't heard of it either and only found the name by looking for its badge. Its full name, "Vehicle Transportation Group Motor Vehicle-1", might be the most generic car name ever.

I'm sure whoever owns it thinks it is just as cool as a Humvee.  Unique sure, you don't see too many AM General products floating around on haulers.

I've started seeing those a lot lately. They're incredibly popular.

It really depends on where you are. I saw three (and apparently missed a fourth) on a one-week vacation on the West Coast (both Orange County CA and the Seattle area), but I have seen zero at home despite spending a lot more time at home.

I've seen three Cybertrucks so far and two were wrapped because people already know what a disaster the stainless steel is. One was wrapped for a cleaning business, so kudos to that guy for being smart about his money.

I've only seen one that I know of, and that was on Saturday.

Speak of the devil I just saw one in my rearview mirror getting off I-275 in Tampa. That exact same stainless steel car with no color and odd shape cross the street behind me.

I seriously doubt that anyone will be seeing them being driven on their own wheels on I-70 west of the Denver, CO metro area anytime soon.

Saw several of them this weekend.

I saw one on Valley View (turning onto I think Desert Inn) recently. My wife and I both groaned.

Very expensive and very low build quality. Gag.

Although roadman asks a good question...what is a Cybertruck supposed to be, anyway?

Here's one interesting factoid about the MV-1: It was originally going to use GM parts, but when production started, it had been switched over to Ford components instead.

I hope for his sake that's a dryer, because if it were a washer, where would it drain to?

And if it is a dryer...where did he wash the clothes?
