A Cybertruck ‘blew up’ outside Trump’s hotel in Las Vegas
Where the fuck are mods…
Like holy fuck, all the comments blatantly ignore everything?

2 cars rented from the same company both used clearly for terror and all you got to say is “Roflmao! Just Tesla things!”
Fuck this place, worse than Guardian comment section. Yes I am angry and yes I do expect better. I found more civil comments on reddit.
You know where the door is.
Found the tesla owner
So do you think it’s funny that the Tesla self destructed, or do you think it’s funny someone blew it up?
I think it’s funny either way
Please report any rule breaking behaviour. We cannot see everything.
Where do you draw the line? How serious should this place be? I don’t want to report too much as well, you’re volunteering your own time and it’s ultimately your place… Like the comment below of someone finding someone blowing themselves up “funny”, is that acceptable?
Are people not allowed to find humor in whatever the fuck they want to?
It’s still not clear what caused the fire
It’s a Cybertruck.
From another article…
While some early Tesla models, including the Model S, were prone to spontaneously catch fire if they suffered underbody damage, it’s unlikely the Cybertruck, which has been recalled seven times since it went on sale in November 2023, was released with a similar flaw.
Nah, no chance a cybertruck would have the same flaw. No chance at all, am I right?
It has a whole new set of flaws that result in the same outcome.
Saw one in daylight for the first time yesterday. They’re so big they don’t fit in Costco’s ridiculously oversized parking stalls.
They’re the size of a F150. Smaller actually.
F-150 has a turning radius of 27.3 feet, length of 232 inches, width of 80 inches. Hummer EV has a turning radius of 37 feet, length of 206 inches, width of 93.7 inches Rivian R1T has a turning radius of 22.3 feet, length of 217 inches width of 81.8
Cybertruck has a turning radius of 43.5 feet, length of 231 inches, width of 77 inches.
Okay, so the length “advantage” it has over the F-150 is roughly 0.4% of their length.
It is very slightly thinner than its competition, but its turning radius is 18% larger than its nearest competitor, which is the absolutely massive Hummer EV
In compairson to the f-150, it is 60% larger, and only has a bed capacity of 52.2 cubic feet(within the roller door) compared to the F150s 52.8 cubic feet.
Cybertruck bed capacity made from calculating the area of the bed that fits inside the roller door and tailgate.
I think you might be mixing up units for the turning radius between the f150/rivian and the CT
MotorTrend has the turning circle listed as
F150 Lightning 48.0 ft
Rivian 44.9 ft
CT 43.5 ft
Meanwhile the GM site says the Silverado EV is 42.16ft
So your 2 numbers for F150/Rivian aren’t the same measurement as the CT 43.5
Edit: Also the size comparison wasn’t about being an advatange or not, it was the person mocking the CT size when it was smaller than the countries best selling vehicle and favorite truck.
Edit: And worth noting that the CT, Silverado and Hummer all have the better turning circles because of their 4 wheel steering. The hummer is 25 inches shorter, leading to its best score. The silverado is a couple inches longer, and has a tighter circle which is a nice job.
