They said he was arrested for tax evasion.

He was arrested twice for it.

Damage to the cells can make them ignite. Fires cause damage. They are known to reignite later.

But at least you can tow them somewhere else to burn.

Happy Labor Day 😎

The fact that "it didn't catch fire and the doors opened" is the measure of success means that the bar is really on the floor for Teslas.

For real though don't run over the bar with a Tesla, if it goes through the battery, you're toast

It's an unintended use, but an expected condition. A vehicle should never add to the danger in an expected condition except in ways necessary for an expected function (reaching highway speeds for example is inherently dangerous)

Oscar-Meyer Weinermobile. They have six or so of them wandering around the country, for advertising.

It's a lot more than tacky.

Putting lithium batteries in water doesn't sound like the move to me...

But the owner of the company is frenemies with the fucking president

Enemies? That whole feud was faked to save Tesla. People were boycotting them very successfully. Musk continues to work helping trump including again paying to help in midterms.

Unfortunately this stunt worked.

I feel like you just wanted to tell people about your racecar, but I respect that. May I see a photo?

There are many other EVa that don't have this problem

I mean short of directly funding a powerful Nazi, there appears to be a lot of other reasons not to own one of these things.

Lithium batteries contain little to no pure lithium.

It's similar to saying that putting salt in water is a bad move because pure sodium reacts violently with water.

I'm only going to say no cause I don't wanna give out my name that's on it lol. I will however give you the guy who won our divisions feature last weekend. Our car is similar under the hood, we just have an 80s Monte Carlo body kit.

Any other company would have been sued into nonexistence if they released a car that;

Lied in its marketing

Can't tow for shit - aluminium frame holding tow bar collapses under 'rated' strain

Can't be driven in water - electronics fail

Can't offroad

Breaks when treated as anything but a soccermom suv

Stuck the accelerator on full blast during one user's drive

Autopilot feature was stuck behind and update for the first year

And now denonstrably sets fire to itself if damaged from the underside (but dont worry, the company now sells a product to bandaid that open chest wound)

bar is really on the floor for Teslas.

Just don’t run over that bar

They meant fish tank.

Extra perfection?

Folks, please stop kicking Cybertrucks in the balls

And if you own a Cybertruck, please purchase our new jockstrap

Clearly I didn't double check my swipe text again 🙃 I failed.

"this stunt worked" is relative.

Look at their . By comparison, Toyota moved 11-12 million.

Gravity is inevitable. 1.5 million units a year is a unsustainable failure if the stock price is $300+. They need to multiply it by something insane like 20x for the stock price to make sense.

I would just buy a used MRAP, at least it looks cool and futuristic.

Two fish are in a tank, one says to the other, "I'll shoot the cannon, you drive!"

Ang steeringk wheel that flies out tha window while hyou are adrivingk. Itsa good idea and Ing stand by that.

You yaself admitta yaself

And there I was thinking your oil pan was somehow less than perfect.

Ah yes, the Boeing school of transport safety. Part of the vehicle keeps exploding? Just put some metal sheet around it.

Just standard unfortunately lol
