Cybertrucks are capable of falling apart, underperforming, looking stupid, and incinerating their occupants.
You can also broadcast that you're a Nazi by driving one.
Inexplicably, sales are down.

You've heard of rolling coal, get ready for rolling crematorium
"Burning bones entirely requires extremely high temperatures. An environment of 1292 degrees Fahrenheit (700 degrees Celsius) is necessary to incinerate bones completely."
The lawsuit is about being trapped in the vehicle, not about the batteries catching fire. You can burn to death in a gas-powered car as well, but chances are you’d be able to open the door handles in any other vehicle after a crash. That’s the safety problem they are suing over.
Damn, good way to unalive someone and leave no evidence but a faulty truck.
Sheehan was driving home when the Cybertruck “left the road” and struck a large concrete culvert, after which the vehicle’s “hyper volatile” battery system went into “thermal runaway” – a chain reaction of short-circuits ultimately resulting in uncontrollable temperature escalation – and caught fire.
Once power was lost, it was impossible for Sheehan to open the Cybertruck’s electrically operated doors in the normal way, the complaint goes on, highlighting a major issue that has similarly doomed others riding in Teslas. The external door handles also failed to work, and the emergency manual door release handles within the Cybertruck are “unreasonably difficult to locate in an emergency,” the complaint states.
These design problems are so glaringly obvious that the fact Tesla hasn't bothered to fix them gives big "fuck you" vibes. A company's culture comes from the top.
Sure is good that DOGE got rid of everyone who was investigating Tesla.
This should obviouslybe illegal, but you gotta be pretty fucking stupid to buy one in the first place.
How appropriate that a Swastitruck cremates its drivers.
I'm sitting here wondering if the still, legally, need to go through a funeral home, or if the medical examiner just hands them a box and says "you guys are good".
We anything be recoverable? I can't imagine there was much of anything left.
Elon: If the bones disintegrated, how do you know anyone was even in there? 😏
Are you factoring in the fact that there have been substantially more Tesla's sold than a Ford Pinto? Like, what's the per 100,000 units car sold metric?
27 people dying in explosions from a single car model is a really high number. This compares DEATHS from the Ford Pinto to FIRES for all models made by Tesla.
Edit: i don't think I was paying attention when reading this
Assuming that 83 fatalities is up to date for Tesla vehicle fires, is 16 deaths distributed per model a good stat to you?
"Not great, not terrible"?
To be fair, nobody else has innovated in the mobile crematorium industry nearly as much
This stat seems to be just fire related deaths while the graph is all deaths.
We probably need to compare deaths or number of fire or deaths due to fire divided by number of miles driven per model. Or something like that.
Yes, and how many models does Tesla have? 3? 4? Even divided by 4, 232 still is way WAY more than pinto and this is basically for ALL the Tesla models anyways
You're comparing total fires with fires which resulted in deaths like I was. It says 83 Tesla deaths from fires/explosions. Also, like someone else said, It would be important to see how many cars were sold for each model. For example if Tesla sold 2 million model 3s and Ford sold 300,000 Pintos then you'd get an idea of the danger inherent with owning that model.
The perfect fake death.
Take out huge loan. Take out massive life insurance policy. Flip Tesla. Ignite.
Idk, head to somewhere with no extradition by cargo boat or some shit.
Edit: okay there's a flaw. You gotta drive a cyber truck.
okay but that's pretty fucking metal
I wonder when Tesla will start charging extra for cremation mode
Load up batteries into a Swastikar with a massive number of recalls that was manufactured by a company run by an ultimate idiot who lives by "move fast and break things" ...
What did you think you bought? Something good? 🤡 🫏 🖕 💩
That's 2,760 C. holy shit. poor guy. I'm so glad these hunks of rubbish are banned here in the UK
You signed your death warrant when you bought an Incel Camino
a 100k charcuterie machine, a mobile crematorium, or a venison slicer. a swiss army knife of cars.
Technician A: "Here's where the infant went through the windshield. Three points."
Technician B: "The teenager's braces around the backseat ashtray would make a good "anti-smoking" ad.
Technician A: "The father must've been huge. See how the fat burnt into the driver's seat with his polyester shirt? Very "modern art."
I'd rather not fuck him, thanks. There are enough wives/baby mamas who have done that at this point.
Rumor has it you couldn't even if you wanted to because he had a botched surgery, and all those kids were conceived via IVF.
So they're providing free cremation services now eh?
I don’t know how so maybe this isn’t entirely true, but I’ve seen past news reports of Cybertrucks having to be buried due to the temperature of these fires. Supposedly they burn so hot that they are difficult to extinguish.
That applies to anything with Li-ion NMC in it. Like your phone. EVs just have more of them.
F/A 18s have zinc in their brake disks that if they ever catch on fire the best option is to push the jet of the carrier.
No reason to bury the whole truck when the battery can be removed.
Yeah, but in his defense I don't think there's anything in the safety regulations about post mortem remains being identifiable. LOL.
People are stupid and get confused when in a panic. So we put pushbars on Emergency exits. Multiple redundent signs to say how to get out. Why are our cars any different.
I wasn't able to remove the speaker cover hiding the manual release cable on those stupid wing doors the model x has. I was not panicking while trying to escape a battery fire. Handleless doors should be illegal.
Push bars on a moving vehicle is a lawsuit all on its own, so I dont think we need to go that far. But electronic only doors is definitely stupid.
