Batteries and water don't mix, I mean they can, but they shouldn't
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.
Cybertrucks aren't designed to be driven and they should never get wet. Otherwise, enjoy.
This reminds me of the stickers that come on some Walmart-level "mountain bikes."
I have an inflatable garden toy - a set of 2 pigs to play a jumbo version of Pass the Pigs. There is a warning on the inflatable toys:
"This is not an inflatable toy."
So I wouldn't ve surprised if Cyber Truck had some similar warning. "This is not a car. Do not allow it to get wet."

This sounds like something that companies purposefully do.
This must be why Ben Shapiro never gets his wife wet.
Huh, insinuating someone's spouse is shaped like a Cybertruck is quite the unique insult
To each their own I guess. Must have reached puberty during the original Tomb Raider period.
I saw a guy on Facebook who decided to load two kayaks into it. Like why would you think that was a good transport for kayaks? Looked ridiculous.
Fire Hydrant Turns Rolling Dumpster into Dumpster Fire
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.
Trump deregulated the fuck out of things while president and this is likely one of the effects
Regulation in the US appears to be nothing but smoke and mirrors.
nothing but smoke and mirrors
Nope. Mirrors are optional.
I mean, what do you expect? It's a fire hydrant.
I saw a cyber truck with the default paint and it looks like a 20 year old car already.
The jet black painted ones kinda look cool, until I remember the car itself sucks ass.
default paint is none!
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"?
I read on the news our local fire department had to keep one car in a special water reservoir for several days, because the fire kept reigniting.
Yes. Water doesn’t directly help it go out since the batteries are fine burning in water but if you carry away enough heat then you csn
One can also cover it with fire blanket and sing them goodnight tune.
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...
It is common practice to submerge EVs in water for several days in Germany, too. Remember that there is no elemental lithium (which would react with water) in batteries. As with every fire, the goal is to cool down the battery, so the fire doesn’t have enough energy to burn further. Unfortunately I only found German sources to back this up.
Elon Musk made water catch fire?
Can you imagine being in the road with a hotie in you cybertruck thinking you won in life an then starts to rain
