A businessman from Dayton, Ohio, who had an ice cream business in a Tesla Cybertruck was recently forced to close due to the vandalism of his vehicle.
Daniel Herres is the owner of Cyber Cream Dayton. He recently posted about the vandalism incident on his business Facebook page. His Facebook post read, in part, “It is with great sadness that we share with you that our ice cream truck has been severely damaged. A random act of violence happened in broad daylight at our home in Bellbrook. All the windows were broken, making it unsafe to operate, and unfortunately, Tesla currently can’t install our windows until September. We are very disappointed and regret that we have to share with others that this means we have to temporarily suspend our business. “
The unique and rare appearance of the Tesla Cybertruck probably made Herres’ business stand out from the public. This type of hook can help companies attract customers and gain attention on a wider scale.
However, rare vehicles, equipment, and other resources can also make it difficult for businesses if something goes wrong. Since Tesla’s Cybertruck is not an ordinary car, parts are not available at your local auto repair shop. Therefore, this business owner has to wait longer than usual to replace the parts.
Unfortunately for Cyber Cream Dayton, the outdoor ice cream business usually only operates in the summer. And this waiting period will probably continue until the end of the company’s window this year.
An incident of vandalism is certainly not the business owner’s fault. But problems like this can occur in businesses in all industries and with all different types of equipment. If possible, it’s a good idea to make emergency plans to continue working if a problem arises. Unfortunately, when equipment is the main focus and draw of your business, creating this type of program can be difficult, if not impossible.
