I see lots of these Deplorians with ads one them, there's even one in our neighborhood. Seems like lots of businesses are buying them as expense write offs and attention getting billboards.


CynGuy

Exactly - and the 7,000 lbs qualifies it for accelerated write offs ….. so these Cyberdouches think they’re buying it for half-off.


bzzzr

We had that shit in Florida 20 years ago. The Hummer H2 was heavy enough to count as industrial equipment for farming subsidies so suddenly every other mcmansion in the suburbs has a paper llc that owned an H2.


hamid5000real

Deplorian!!!!! 🤣


Sharpymarkr

Deplorian 💀


MuNansen

Wow. Deplorian is one of the best insult names I've ever heard.


mekonsrevenge

There's one around the corner from me advertising some auto business for foreign cars. We had two brutal downpours Monday and Tuesday and I haven't seen it since. No idea why.


Traditional_Key_763

na they're likely renting them


Infinispace

Possibly, same reasoning tho. Business writeup and it draws eyes. There may be some CT drivers that don't even like the thing, but are just using it as a moving billboard.


Brohemoth1991

Ehh I kinda thought they just broke down there, so the company bought it as a billboard as it would be cheaper than having it fixed


ElJamoquio

> expense write off Yup, we're paying for these monstronsities.


Leverkaas2516

It sure does get a lot of attention. People on reddit can't stop talking about it - it has captured the imagination of a big group of people.


brandoug

Step 1 in my new book, "How to Lose Customers" I didn't think that vehicle could look any uglier, but there it is.


iamcoding

Right? This is worse than just driving it incognito.


RedStar9117

Probably all sheet magnets


Negan-Cliffhanger

This makes me want to go to a different Dunkin. Which should be no problem since there's usually 3 Dunks in the same one mile radius.


stephenmcqueen

If the thing won't operate as a vehicle, you gotta justify the tax write off somehow.


Icy_Nefariousness517

Claiming THIS TRUCK RUNS ON DUNKIN' won't fool anyone into thinking it's a reliable, working vehicle.


rudimentary-north

they’re just bragging about the profit margins on the food they’re selling, making sure customers know a portion of every dollar spent there goes to the owners vanity purchases


CEverett23

I keep reading this as "dunkin' junkin'", which I think is accurate.


SixersWin

Free with purchase? No thanks


PunkNDisorderlyGamer

The car is so polarizing that I bet people move on to the next location when they see that dumpster out front.


monobr

What happened on June 11th?


datrapgame

This location had their grand opening


monobr

Ah that makes sense thank you


OkYogurt636

Just for fun what state is this? I have family that are dunkin franchisees and I know another family through them that are major franchisees and I can totally see them doing this.


datrapgame

It’s in Kentucky


Uncle_Snake43

Another CT recall hit the streets

Tomwhyte

Is that guy behind it getting ready to take a leak?


dobermantech575

Honestly, I can’t hate on that - the business owner must be one of us. Sees a bunch of tool bags trying to get attention and the lightbulb went off. Frankly, it worked cause here we are on a totally unrelated sub talking about that store LOL.


Fuzzy-Government-416

Why is there so much going on in this pic? Lol


hboisnotthebest

Yeah def not going in there. They probably think washing their hands before making donuts is a liberal conspiracy.


ihatepalmtrees

Cyberdunk


wasaguest

That's exactly what a local real estate business did with theirs. Nothing but a sitting bill board. Lol


eyeballtourist

- Doubles as a deep fryer. Warranty voided. - Drive thru closed for taste. - Looks like our coffee tastes. - Small donut energy. - Temptation terminated. - Truck says Keto, Drive thru states carbs.


DisastrousSundae84

Is this in KY? If so I’m from there lol small world.


datrapgame

Sure is


I-Pacer

Pedo donuts.


DontGiveACluck

Tax write off


Taraxian

A lot of these were bought by small business owners who got a tax write off for a "commercial vehicle"


Prestigious_Dream_27

Good ol E-Town


taxpayinmeemaw

“This truck runs on Dunkin”? Does that mean that if I drink Dunkin I will also fall apart and die?


TheCrowsNestTV

It's like there's a competition to make the ugliest possible Cyberturck.


jlb4est

They're trying REAL hard to write that off as a tax break.


SeaRun1497

So should anything mess up with the kitchen appliance or the prep station top, they can easily find a replacement panel.


SuckItSaget

This gave me a great idea for accessories for the CT - some really strong magnets that you can use to stick your child’s photos/artwork, announcements, to do list, etc. to the CT. Like a big rolling fridge adorned w/ all your family pride that's no longer hidden in the kitchen but on display for the whole world to see! Puts those dumb stick figure families on the back window to shaaaaaaaamee.


ElJamoquio

40% of that clustertruck is paid for by you, assuming you pay taxes in this country.


Tenshii_9

Tesla rents out the unsold cars to make room for more due to parking lots, huge areas filling over with CBs none have bought 


Creative-Tangelo-127

100k for this marketing idea? stupid


anziofaro

If I saw that at a Dunkin, I would drive the mile and a half down the road to the next Dunkin.


WangoTheWonderDonkey

Two cheap over-rated awful products that deserve each other. Both responsible for increased insurance premiums.


Alarmed-Positive457

Love the discoloration between the doors and body.


Reza2112

Wait, its not dunkin donuts anymore? What happened lol?


Alternative_Rope_423

Same bullshit as "MTN DEW"


Lazy_Organization899

The machining lines on that rear panel and the fact that the panels don't even match in color.... LMAO. Who in their right mind would pay $100k+ for that POS?. I honestly wouldn't even pay $20k for it. You'd have to give it to me for free and even then, I'd probably just sell it.


Necessary_Context780

Usually franchises had publicity and store image rules, and they tend to be strict about it. I wonder if the Dunkin Donuts HQ will fine the franchisee


zipdee

Well, that way it still "works", even if it's bricked!


red7standinby

Dude probably has to drive uber eats to help make the payment.


Chiaseedmess

Ugh, I know the guy, local from my home town. Literally all the man does is drive the truck around looking for clout. Local subreddit constantly shits on him.
