Why CyberTruck will be the BEST Truck for Plowing Snow

[Sasmania]

This is missing a good portion of the front structure. But... Those crush rails are the same thing you'd attach to on other trucks.

Are you referring to the silver part on top or the black parts underneath? It looks like the bumper would attach to the silver part but I'm not sure.

This is from the factory last week. I was lucky enough to go!

Here's what the Plow would attach to.... Any ideas??

Is that an endoskeleton I see?

Those pictures are great!Very cool.

What I mean by the electronics making it useless means he cannot even get it down his driveway in deep 9”+ snow yet their Subaru cross trek can and I do not think it has much more ground clearance than a model X.

You need to plow before it's nine inches, these lightweight plows can only plow 3-4" at a time, best to get it done early.

vee blade plows are massively heavy and tall. They are pretty much overkill unless you have a lot of heavy wet snow that you cant keep up with any other way.

there are several great light to medium plows that are completely self contained wiyh battery power and hydraulics and wireless remote control.
The only thing the cybertruck needs to do is manage traction and ground clearance and not freak out about the presence of the plow in its vision, or changing mass load.mass.

the plastic bumper can easily be replaced with a sturdy steel bumper with a 2" receiver or 3 to mount the plow. No wires unless you want easily mounted and wired plow battery charging.

the bumper and front hitch receiver are useful for much more too, year round.
like its a real work truck!

Have you found an aftermarket front bumper that already has a hitch receiver? I've seen the UP metal one, but it has no receiver.

Here's what I'm doing for now... since I already used the same plow with my old Model Y...
I have added the winch with battery jump starter to power it.

So I saw the truncated title on my phone, and my mind went straight to the gutter.

So it's almost 2025.
Has anybody done it yet?
Kep hearing scary notices of bumpers falling off and hitch points breaking on ct. I also worry yhat the camera blockage or sending the plow closeupnwill freak out the truck so it won't drive.
I am getting more and morevdisillusionef with th possibility of doing real work with ct... Startin with the plastic bumpers, lack of substantial attachment points etc.

And was bummed with the whimybFoudation only delays.
No balls.

Pity looks like there's two 'topics' on Snow Plowing for the Cybertruck.
