A connection is unlikely. The method and delivery and target are all completely different.

CONFIRMED: The Daily Mail confirms that the Las Vegas Cybertruck terrorist was MATTHEW LIVELSBERGER, and that he previously served at the same military base as the New Orleans terrorist Shamsud Din Jabbar.
The irony, considering recent information...Not all professionals are smart, and it looks like whoever planned this came from the far, far left side of the isle. So, I wouldn't expect them to be very smart in the first place.
Just one more reason, not to put your CT up on Toro. I’m not sure that the Extra insurance covers acts of terrorism.Maybe the “gas” pedal caught fire ?
100%!!For those of us who have our trucks. Please go to your local fire and police station and ask them if they would like to see the truck in person.
My husband and I are friends with a few first responders here and after the events of yesterday we got some requests to bring the truck to our local police and fire stations so they could see it in person.
They would like to review the first responder information provided by Tesla on a real truck.
I desperately hope we never see the events of yesterday again but if we do. Please help those who have to run towards the scene have all the information possible.
So he was the confirmed renter but they have not identified the body in the truck yet. All mainstream media info at this point so I'm liberally applying salt... Remember what they just did to us yesterday...“The explosion in Las Vegas is thought to have killed Livelsberger and injured seven others. Posts made on Facebook suggest he was a Trump supporter and a firework enthusiast, having once likened fireworks shows to the ‘sounds of battle.’”

Some camp fuel canisters and fireworks? This is not the way to generate much explosive power relative to a typical pipe bomb. Ask a bomb tech if you don't believe me.How is it not... a bomb? I can't believe you just made me look up the definition of "bomb" at 3 am. ?
A volume as big as the CT allows too much expansion without reaching the pressure levels required to rupture catastrophically. Hence, the fact that the glass didn't even break.I am thinking that the POS thought the increased strength of the SS would increase the explosive power of his crude bomb.
BAH!! Sorry, he was wrong. Have fun in HELL, you POS .
Even regular rental car companies are mainly looking at credit check and valid license, not doing a full background check. Something like Turo, which seems to be the top of a few peer-to-peer car rental apps/companies, might be a little looser or more automated; I've seen search results mentioning completing a rental arrangement in 5 minutes, which is probably quicker than the Hertz website, let alone one of their physical locations. It will get them a vehicle easier maybe, although it's obviously just as traceable; but if they don't plan to survive, that doesn't matter if their intent isn't spotted before they act.both rented an electric truck from turo. Both were on the same base. It seems to me someone gave them directions on how to carry out these attacks and one of them failed. I am thinking that there could be more attacks out there but maybe they were told to stop for now. No proof but it sure as hell looks like a possibility.

Meanwhile, to increase explosive power, you need a small and strong casing, like a pipe. In particular, you need something capable of containing much higher pressures than a fuel canister before rupturing, or you don't achieve high enough pressure to create a large explosive shock (peak pressure of the shockwave).
This is bomb-making 101. The person who did this either did not understand these things, or just didn't take the time to plan something that would be more destructive. You can call it a bomb, but it wasn't designed like one, and hence wasn't very effective. Good thing, or more people would have been hurt.
Absolutely! I think that the one in Vegas (irrespective of whether he thought enclosing the materials in the truck bed would create a larger explosion) 100% believed that once he started a fire in the vehicle the battery would catch on and take over.Two idiots that thought EVs would explode and cause massive damage since they have been told that by media and other people repeating it.
