Both were EV trucks rented through Turo and had explosives placed in them on the same day. Hell of a coincidence if not related.

I Googled "Cybertruck exploding" and it came up. It took 5 or maybe 10 seconds.
Are you trying to quibble over whether the car itself exploded? If so, what point are you trying to make?
What killed the occupant?
There aren't that many rental car companies: this is the birthday paradox in action.
If price was a factor, why rent a Cybertruck, or any truck at all? Or an EV? A small traditional car would be much cheaper.
Does Turo make it easier to rent a car anonymously or with false identity? I've never heard of them or used them just wondering if that might be more the reason. I see they are "Car rentals, reimagined" and they sound something like an AirBNB for cars so it would be unsurprising to me if they played fast and loose with things like customer identification.
The reason I use Turo is that they offer a wide variety of vehicles, and you get to pick out what exact car you’re going to rent when you book it. I’ve used it to rent models that I’m considering buying. I’ve also used it just to avoid repeating the miserable experience of waiting in line at the rental counter for an hour after my flight lands at 1 AM. I can rent something nice, and pick it up from the parking garage next to the terminal.
Anyway, if I wanted to rent a Cybertruck, or any other specific model, Turo is certainly how I’d do it.
Perhaps there might be some stricter rules coming, as rented vehicles seem to play into a lot of terrorist plans. On the other hand, I guess if all the past events didn't prompt that, why would these latest two?
The symbolic alignment there is... considerable, for it to be a coincidence.
