    I thought for sure there would be a connection to New Orleans but it's looking like they were two separate lone attackers. But still...two divorced military dads renting an electric pickup truck on Turo for a New Year's attack is just too coincidental to ignore.

      Is it enough that Turo enshittified car rental by making it Peer to Peer with close to zero human to human contact? Also, I don't know how many traditional car rental agencies are carrying cyber trucks in their fleet, but given the way CT value precipitously drops with use, it can't be many.

      Car rental agencies work by getting a great deal on a fleet of brand new cars (from the best manufacturer bid), using them as rentals for about a year, then selling the cars for as much or more than they paid for them using the dealerships the franchisee also owns, or in the case of Enterprise, their own branded, vertically integrated sales lot.

      With a Cyber Truck, nobody is buying slightly used ones even at 30% markdown, and Tesla is not going to have fleet pricing until they massively increase their production past the demand for new ones, which at this rate will take a decade.

      TL;DR - The only people renting out cyber trucks are individual owners trying to offset the cost of their extremely poor investments. On apps like Turo.
