    Warning: Pregnant women, the elderly, and children under 10 should avoid prolonged exposure to CyberTruck.

    Caution: CyberTruck may suddenly accelerate to dangerous speeds.

    CyberTruck contains a liquid core, which, if exposed due to rupture, should not be touched, inhaled, or looked at.

    Do not use CyberTruck on concrete.

    Discontinue use of CyberTruck if any of the following occurs: itching; vertigo; dizziness; tingling in extremities; loss of balance coordination; slurred speech temporary blindness; profuse sweating or heart palpitations.

    If CyberTruck begins to smoke, get away immediately. Seek shelter and cover head.

    CyberTruck may stick to certain types of skin.

    When not in use, CyberTruck should be returned to its special container and kept under refrigeration. Failure to do so relieves the makers of CyberTruck, Elon Musk, and its parent company, Tesla, of any and all liability.

    Ingredients of CyberTruck include an unknown glowing green substance which fell to Earth, presumably from outer space.

    Do not taunt CyberTruck.

    CyberTruck comes with a lifetime warranty.

    CyberTruck! Accept no substitutes!

        CyberTruck comes with a lifetime warranty.

        Warranty lasts as long as cybertruck is working. After that - your problem.

    It bewilders me that such a vehicle made it out of testing and onto public roads with the sheer amount of poor design issues it has.

    Remember that non electric cars are still dangerous too. I saw a gas car wreck today on the side of the interstate that had 2 firetrucks, an ambulance and about 3 cop cars. That isn’t going to make the same level of national attention as this is.

    News sites like to over dramatize green energy dangers and will tell you that birds running Into windmills is a massive issue and ignore that statistically fossil fuels cause ~50x more bird deaths per unit of energy than windmills (iirc).

    Yes, the cybertruck sucks and probably should be banned, but it’s still green energy and you can’t let it distract you from the benefits of all electric vehicles.

    Sounds like the best possible place to have a fire. Isn’t the only advice for putting out an EV battery fire “pour as much water as possible on it for several hours until it burns itself out”?

      No, you don’t need to douse it in a substance it readily reacts with… I don’t know where this farce comes from, but it doesn’t corport wirth reality unless the point is to literally burn the fire out by fueling it. Like putting a bellows on a coal fire…
