It was flaming when we drove by this morning. I wonder if it was a batt-rie.

His name is Robert, and he's a real hot head.

Looks like a Tesla model S with custom wheels. Door handles and nose look like a Tesla.

Judging from the fire alone, I'd guess Tesla.

Looks like it started in the trunk. His gas powered generator probably fell over and gas poured out.

The rear looks completely demolished. If it bust into flames after getting rear-ended, my guess is it's a Pinto.

I think the car has been identified, but it probably identifies as a push cart now.
