And they're rolling dumpsters.

For like 3 hours, it was glorious as my friend group wondered what part of the Cybertruck could have spontaneously combusted.
Then video came out and there's colorful lights and we still weren't sure.
It took a official report before we accepted it was a car bomb.

All I read is the truck bed was filled with flammables. ' Is there a believable source for
A. Whether the driver started the fire or it was sparked on accident.
B. If it was not intentional, what was the actual target?
With military experience he'd know a little about fuel air explosives. Powerful fireworks are sufficient for making such a bomb, though they're technically difficult (you need to trigger the second trigger explosion after the first has spread out the fuel enough to detonate)
I think he was expecting (in Marvin the Martian's words) an earth shattering kaboom but didn't do it right
Done right the amount of fuel would have done serious damage - all the energy released in the fire would have been released instantaneously, with a shock wave

TIL
FSD=Fully Self Detonating.
The Delorean fan in me loves the asthetic and used to get jealous.
Cyber trucks being POS deathtraps that basically fall to pieces when you breath on them, their inability to do anything a normal truck can do, and the fact they make you bleed touching an door alleviated that completely.
So thanks for making them embarrassing junkers, Elon.
I keep hearing that they keep falling apart and catching fire, yet no one links pictures. I have seen exactly one out of the 27 thousand that is claimed to have had a battery fire and looks like it did.
Bro, what's Elon's cock taste like? You've been sucking it all over this thread.

I almost agree with you, but the subtle changes made from the concept to reality make it not even look cool like it could've
I don't think you can compare the two really.
Certainly not for use case.
One was a sports car
One is (supposed to be) a pickup truck 
But it's clear to me what they were going for asthetically. There's a bunch of people who already did BTTF prop time machine conversions.
That said, I wouldn't buy a cyber truck because they're poorly built, poorly engineered, and unsafe.
I get it as far as "they both have angles".
But one actually looks like a car.
The cybertruck has everything up front. Like they designed something, then had to concede that people have to use it, tacked something on, and didn't bother hiding it.
The delorian looks like it was designed with the fact there would be people in mind

Except that Delorean does not equal a Cyber Truck.

"car"
Self controlled IED
akchually this can be legitimately spinned in favour of tesla
police are already saying that the explosion wasn’t as bad because it went off inside a cybertruck
Yeah, it would have been worse if it went off inside something valuable
Pedestrians should be thankful that the windows gave out so easily, otherwise the body panels might've turned into giant shrapnel.
Or that the guy wasn't good at bombs. If it has been filled with ANFO they would have been identifying victims from tiny parts and investigating by video evidence. Many in the hotel would have been killed
I remember ANFO from Mythbusters. It really hates cement trucks and train station mock-ups.
