That's just a bot, or someone who knows fuck all. Their cars are always top ranked in crash saftey. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 7 child comments replies: [–] Honytawk@feddit.nl 4 points 11 months ago* (3 children) You mean like that cybertruck shit made of rusting "stainless" steel, with no crumple zone and a body that reflects the sun in other drivers eyes? Yeah, doubt it. They aren't even legal in Europe because of safety. Who told you that?
