    "where they found a lithium-ion battery inside of an electric semi truck on fire."

    "The cause of the fire was not released."

    :banghead: don't need to release the cause. You said it in the first statement.

    I follow the FDNY on a few you tube channels and those poor guys are always out fighting a fire caused by an electric bike. Can you imagine living in a NYC apt building it and you lose everything you own because some gen xer has to have an electric bike....
     
    Bud A. and Oxbow Thank this.

    I was out of the country during the whole Pinto ordeal. However, just about everyone in my family owned one. The only one I ever drove was my Mothers red station wagon. It drove ok to me, but I never got rear ended in one.....
