A Cybertruck driver has said that there's one issue that's 'getting old' when driving the expensive car

Cybertrucks are still the talk of the town several months after the first customers received their quirky, futuristic cars.

After so much hype, it was expected that people would be eager to get behind the wheel of the luxury Tesla vehicle.

Between December 2023 and April 2024, the car manufacturer reportedly delivered over 3,800 of the trucks, motor1.com reports.

Cybertruck's prices range from $102,000 to $120,000, so it's understandable that people who splash the cash on the electric vehicle have high expectations.

And one person with those high expectations was YouTuber and self proclaimed 'car addict' Rich Benoit (AKA Rich Rebuilds), who says he paid a whole month's salary to rent a Cybertruck for just three days.

He's since posted a review about the car and shared his thoughts on it.

Admitting that for the first 24 hours of having it he was in 'fan boy mode', some of the novelty eventually wore off...

Speaking about his experience of driving the Cybertruck, Rich said: "There is always someone looking at you.

"There’s always somebody sticking their head out the window. There’s always someone that has a camera phone out, even people from all walks of life that I didn’t think would even care about this thing."

Rich went on: "After a while, the pointing and the staring turned into laughter.

"It felt like people were actually laughing at you for driving it because the truck is very polarizing. People either love it, or they absolutely hate it."

Someone who will relate to Rich's experience is 'Happy' hitmaker Pharrell.

Back in May, the singer went viral online after a video surfaced of him attempting to parallel park his Cybertruck.

The awkward situation generated quite an audience on a busy road in Miami's Design District.

Eventually, Pharrell gave up after ten minutes of trying and chucked his keys to a valet to try and park his car instead.

The viral clip sparked someone to coin the term 'pharrarell park' and sent the internet ablaze.

Roxana Gonzalez witnessed the ordeal and took to Instagram to share a video. She captioned the clip: "A viral moment! Sorry @pharrell. Now the world knows you need to learn how to pharrallel park."

Someone else quipped on X: "Pharrell Williams was spotted having trouble parking his new Cybertruck at the Design District. He couldn't pharrellel park."

Long live the pharrarell park.
