    Someone deliberately bought the vehicle. They knew the risk. One took out its owner in my old neighborhood a couple months ago. Pretty sure it was the one that I laughed at parked on the street all year. Haven’t seen it since.

      It was a rental. Read the article instead of speculating.

      I feel like we used to have consumer protections in this country about things like cars spontaneously catching fire. I’m sure I must be mistaken though.

        People who buy cybertrucks are against that kind of thing. People who don’t buy cybertrucks are happy to let them suffer the consequences.
