We now have a full year of data for the Cybertruck, and a strange preponderance of headlines about Cybertrucks exploding into flames, including several fatalities.

Wait, you mean I have to manually activate a series of levers, linkages and mechanism?

I do concede this vital functionality should be in a quick-access menu for ease of access, on the “additional” page of the “traditional controls” submenu in the “car functions” dashboard.
Perhaps we should first make the user enable “legacy” mode in the settings which can only be done by tapping the firmware version number 10 times. But they can press too quickly, we need to make sure it was intentional.
We also must also reset this when the car is turned off in order to ensure our customers aren’t confused.
