A Tesla owner has shared the downsides of the infamous Cybertruck, saying it's not for everyone.
Since its release at the end of last year, Elon Musk's Cybertruck has caused quite the stir.
From the vehicle breaking down after its owner took it to a car wash to recalls over safety concerns, it hasn't exactly been smooth sailing for the X owner's latest project.

Now, one Cybertruck owner has taken to social media with a long list of complaints about the car.
Jeremy Judkins, who's owned his Tesla since 8 March, shared his thoughts in a TikTok video that has since been viewed almost 20 thousand times.
He started the video by saying: "I couldn't park my Tesla Cybertruck at a super charger and people were watching me."
Judkins was having trouble maneuvering the car as he was worried about hitting nearby vehicles.
He said that after two or three attempts, he was embarrassed so gave up.
"So, I literally just parked in the parking spot, acted like I wasn't even trying to charge.
"I walked and got some Starbucks and then I left and came to another supercharger," he says from his car.
"The Tesla Cybertruck is not good if you have social anxiety because people are always watching you."
In further videos, the creator points out the truck's other issues, including the 'frunk' (front trunk).
Last month, social media users started to notice that the frunk continues closing automatically, even if there's something in the way.
So, Judkins decided to put it to the test in a video posted on Wednesday, putting various fruits and vegetables underneath it as it closes.
The door proceeded to chop each item in half.
One user commented on the video: "So it will cut off fingers still just not an arm."
In a follow-up, the owner decided to put that to the test too and had to pry his fingers out of the vehicle despite Tesla issuing an update to resolve the problem.
"I feared for my finger for a second, not going to lie," he said.
In other Cybertruck news, Elon Musk has responded to a man who built a fully functional replica out of wood.
The truck was built for YouTube channel ND-WoodArt, which sees the team building all manner of different vehicles out of wood.
After the wooden Cybertruck's creator reached out to Musk in an X post that lauded the vehicle, he re-posted their letter and responded: "Much appreciated."
