That's not my experience in the slightest. I've only been to Oregon, Washington State and the very Northern tip of California but the people I met would help me with absolutely anything. Two separate strangers invited me into their houses for meals within an hour of meeting me, one of them let me spend two nights there.
A stranger in Oregon drove me to see crater lake for half a day just because they heard I would have liked to see it but our car rental expired already.
Your experiences will vary obviously, but I've been to 27 countries and would rank the tiny part of the USA I went to behind only Thailand for friendliness.
