I couldn't figure out if they were ragging on the 250 but this might make more sense.

I think it might have been funny if it were more over the top. Something like:
Not 10 seconds after driving off the lot, as your friend Pete swerved to miss a dog and duck under a jumping deer, he was then was hit by a van turning left, crushed by logs rolling off a 18 wheeler, electrocuted by a lightning strike out of the clear blue sky, pancaked by a steam roller, rocketed by a malfunctioning test drone missile and then slammed by a decommissioned Russian satellite. "Boy, that didn't last long," said bike salesman Chris Varrick.
