Two restaurateurs in New Jersey turned Cybertruck into mobile pizza oven and aspire to cook for Elon Musk

The owners of the Columbia Inn in New Jersey turned two Cybertrucks into portable pizza ovens – even Elon Musk couldn’t come up with this idea.

Fabio Antonio Arbelaez and Ryan McDermott, they run the Columbia Inn together, customize their trucks as a marketing tool to promote their pizzeria.

After that, they went the extra mile and added a literal pizza oven in the trunk.

Their dream is to cook for Elon Musk.

The Columbia Inn in New Jersey now has two extra ovens

Maybe you wouldn’t be able to tell from the name, but the Columbia Inn is a proper Italian-style trattoria/pizzeria in Montville, New Jersey.

Mr Arbelaez and Mr McDermott run the Columbia inn together, they both love pizza, and they both love Cybertrucks.

Several celebrities, Kim Kardashian and 2 Chainz spring to mind, have customized their Cybertrucks.

Other Cybertruck owners have used the vehicle as a way to promote their business.

Most people are generally happy with some cool liveries and stickers, but Arbelaez and McDermott decided a custom livery wouldn’t be enough turned both Cybertrucks into fully functional, portable pizza ovens.

We don’t know how many pizza ovens the Columbia Inn has, but we know they now have at least two more at their disposal.

When Elon Musk reacts to custom Cybertrucks

The two restaurateurs say their dream is to cook for Elon Musk.

While that’s unlikely to happen, they may get a reaction from him.

The CEO of Tesla and SpaceX is known for (frequently) interacting with fans/Tesla customers on X.

Not long ago, he replied to the guy who’d built a working Cybertruck crafted entirely out of wood.

On another occasion, he replied to a man who’d modified his Cybertruck to make it look like Warthog, a fictional vehicle from the Halo video game franchise.

He sometimes also replies to slightly more ‘high-profile’ people and entities.

He once responded a police department in Texas and to Snoop Dogg.

A Cybertruck with a pizza oven in the trunk is definitely worth of a reply, so let’s wait and see.
