Updated with video from reporters on-site at the bottom of the post! Late Sunday night, four Tesla Cybertrucks caught fire in a Seattle holding lot near 2nd Ave S & S Spokane St, just five minutes from the local Tesla dealership. Initially, reports indicated two burning Cybertrucks, but as the fire spread, the number grew to 4 Cybertrucks. Investigators have offered no details as to whether this was arson or another case of a Tesla Cybertruck bursting into flames spontaneously. See video from the scene in the full article.

Imagine making a car so bad that when 4 burn up you can't tell if it was arson or just them exploding cause they're bad.

Can you also imagine seeing a Tesla burn, and since you are very anti-Musk the cops accuse you of Arson and your principle defense is, 'but your honor, my client did NOT burn the car. It just went up by itself!' and that is what gets you off.

Your honor, in my clients defense, it be like that.

Fuck, you right. Case dismissed.
