“I have a black Cybertruck, and in LA that’s like you’re the enemy,” Rollins said. “We have a Model 3 or Y, whatever, too. Drive around in that thing and no one gives a s—. Elon (Musk) went absolutely nuts and I bought it like kind of right before that. I just really like the electric cars, I like the brand.”
Lynch explained that they were “friends of the environment, not Elon,” and everywhere they go in the Tesla, there is someone who is unhappy.
“This guy, I was driving my daughter to school. She (Becky) was in the back seat with (their daughter) Roux. This guy, this little guy, just walking his dog on the side of the road, we were just driving, I make this turn, and unwarranted, he just goes like this (sticks his middle finger up) Real tough, real tough guy with his little dog. And I was like, ‘Aw God.’ And she didn’t see it. I’m like, ‘Tell me to just keep driving, tell me to just keep driving.’ She was like, ‘Just drive. What happened? What’s going on?’ We started to turn away and I was like, ‘No.’

“I hit the brakes and I wrapped it back around, and I went up and found this guy, and I parked the car and got out and I just ran up to this guy and I’m like, ‘You don’t know who the f— people are. You don’t know what people are going through. I’m just trying to take my goddamn daughter to school.’ I’m like, ‘You don’t know s— about people.’ Then I started going in on him. I’m like, ‘I don’t agree with politics’ and this and that. And he tried to apologize.”
Lynch said the person told them it was the car and not the people inside the car.
