The Cybertruck has been the subject of much derision, with it's odd shape and strange features drawing a fair amount of attention, but this particular abandoned vehicle has taken it a whole new level.
While it has been proven to save passengers in rather unlikely scenarios, Elon Musk's pride and joy does seem to stick out like a sore thumb in the wild - especially when it's broken down.
We certainly wouldn't recommend walking on your Cybertruck as that'll be surprisingly destructive for the 'futuristic' vehicle, but what do you do when your Tesla vehicle is left unable to drive?
Well, one owner in Seattle has simply just left it there to rot away, and it's somehow become a spot of pilgrimage for many Cybertruck haters.

As initially posted on r/CyberStuck - a subreddit dedicated to mocking Musk's creation - one user 'spotted' an abandoned vehicle on the streets of Seattle with a bizarre fault to its rear left wheel.

It appears to not only be deflated but completely twisted off, with one user in the comments humorously asking what happened: "Did [the driver] run over a Coke can?"
Well, it appears as if this particular vehicle has become a bit of an internet sensation, as multiple other users on the subreddit have taken a trip to visit it too, leaving rather strange memorials in the process.
Another post shows that someone has placed a cross-shaped headstone at the front of the car with a bouquet of flowers underneath, commemorating the supposed 'death' of this particular car.

We can also spot in this post that the car had picked up a ticket of some sorts, indicating that it'll be towed and taken to a scrapyard if it's not moved within 24 hours.
One commenter indicated that if that is the case the Cybertruck "will be quickly stripped of anything of value," which another user replied to joking that the car will be "basically left intact, then."
One final post about this famous Cybertruck shows a close up of both the semi-detached wheel and of the ticket, which shows the date of towing to be September 9, 2024.
The only further update about the truck is a blurry photo someone took of it seemingly being towed, indicating that it has finally (and tragically) been disposed of, but it does still have it's own Google Maps location with a middling 3.7/5 rating.

Many on social media have taken to commenting on the 'shoddy' construction of the $80,000 vehicle, claiming that the suspension parts behind the disformed wheel "look flimsy as hell" and "weaker than my wife's Honda Civic."
"What a shock," says one user, "The truck that looks like a second grader's crayon drawing has the structural integrity of an origami swan."
It's clear that, at least in this particular space, people are more upset about the Cybertruck being taken away than it's failure in the first place - although there is someone in the comments that requested a 'Get Well Soon' balloon.
