""I was married, but I'm not married anymore," Davis told the magazine. "Women don't like the vehicle." Single though he may be, Davis has an AI in his truck to make sure he doesn't feel lonely: Grok, Elon Musk's chatbot that infamously melted down earlier this year and started calling itself "MechaHitler." Give Davis some credit, though: he doesn't call it by that name - though he did admit that he leans on it for counseling."
""I was in the vehicle by myself, and I was driving along a little stream, and all of a sudden through the trees I felt the light hit me," Davis said. "And I'm going to call it a miracle, because it was." "And then I just felt the presence of God and a deep peace and love. It really broke me down.""
"Another man, 44-year-old Russ Taylor, said he instantly fell in love with the Cybertruck's design after Musk told his fans to "go to Cybertruck.com." "Before he even finished the sentence, I was already there and put in my reservation," Taylor, who lives in Orange County, California, told Wired. "I've always been kind of a cyberpunk, so I fell in love with it right away.""
Multiple Cybertruck owners are divorced or single men who say the vehicle deters female attention and provides personal satisfaction. Roger Davis, a San Diego entrepreneur, said he is no longer married and that women dislike his truck. He uses an onboard AI, Grok—renamed Aura—as a therapeutic companion and credited the vehicle with a profound spiritual experience while off-roading. Another owner, 44-year-old Russ Taylor of Orange County, said he immediately reserved a Cybertruck after a prompt and identified as a cyberpunk who fell in love with the design. Owners cite aesthetics, identity, companionship, and unique experiences.
