The Cybertruck Appears to Be More Deadly Than the Infamous Ford Pinto, According to a New Analysis

Hard to tell. The picture was widely used in the media, and they're usually quite careful about that kind of thing. There's something reddish in it, but it could be material from the truck or its contents. One of the photos the police released of his guns had some read foamy material in it, another photo had some stringy red material (plastic?) lying in the road, and there were various red items in the bed too.

Nasty fire still sounds better than instant explosion! Haha

Lots of cars had this same design in the 70s, with the fuel tank low in the rear, right behind the rear differential.
Jeep Grand Cherokees were this way between 1993 and 2004 and Jeep Libertys were this way between 2002 and 2007.
But then again they are jeeps.

The driver was inside the vehicle at the time, so I'm sure some of that is his remains. But a lot is probably burned seat material and such. It's hard to say for sure.

But it is so financially efficient! It isn't wasting money on safety.

Safety belts are a waste of precious money!

He is like a child who is still rebelling against his parents who made him go to bed early too many times.

Wish I could find data on all fatalities/100,000

Top of the line in utility sports.
Unexplained fires are a matter for the courts.

You mean he drew the design with a crayon?

Lol. You're getting your wish. They basically would be in the red if it weren't for some credits and Bitcoin they sold.

Most US trucks look fucking stupid. In my honest opinion.

Right but the specific issue with the Pinto was that it would explode into flames on a rear impact, so this is the appropriate metric.
Like deaths from other accidents would skew the numbers anyway becausd 70s cars were death traps compared to today, but even in that context, the Pinto's explosions were alarming.
Beating it on that isolated metric is a very special kind of achievement.
