Tesla Cybertrucks look so much different than anything else on the road that they still turn heads, even though they’ve been showing up more and more lately. One in southern Colorado really turned heads recently when it caught fire!

The Cybertruck that was towing a wood chipper caught fire on Sunday afternoon on private land outside Redvale, a town in southwestern Colorado, igniting a small wildfire, officials reported via Facebook.

The fire was fully contained by Monday morning, officials said.

The fire was not small, as it took about 30 firefighters and assistance from U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service crews about 19 hours to put out.

No structures were threatened and no injuries were reported. The cause of the fire remains unknown.
