  1. Towing tested with 6,000lb Tesla and trailer load

    the CT wouldn’t make it 60miles towing that if it struggles to haul a car on a flat bed.
  2. Towing tested with 6,000lb Tesla and trailer load

    it’s a truck. It was advertised as doing truck things. It can’t do truck things. It can’t get its original range even 4 years later. It can’t even get its current rated range. This will cost more to run that a gas truck and much slower to the destination. Trucks were designed to be used to work...
  3. Towing tested with 6,000lb Tesla and trailer load

    No one is buying it fur long haul towing. I have not seen a single person in 4 years say they want to to be able to long haul tow. People who tow around town are buying it just as most other 1/2 tons. If you are long haul towing get a 3/4+ ton. But when it can’t tow my trailer to the nearest...
  4. Towing tested with 6,000lb Tesla and trailer load

    The legacy makers have a problem they clearly can’t fix and that’s dealers. Battery tech and motor tech across the brands seems very close in the real world. I’m checking out what the Ford T3 might offer. The last few months have shown some promising info if it’s correct and it might be showing...
  5. Beast better than AWD, change my mind

    I see the the trailer tow test right after I made that post above and it’s not looking good. My trailer is pretty call at 7000lb but it’s inclosed so it’s much less aerodynamic. My estimates now look at 40-50miles at best. That range wouldn’t even get me to the 2 nearest towns and back without...
  6. Towing tested with 6,000lb Tesla and trailer load

    You clearly don’t understand truck buyers don’t tow regularly. Most truck buyers dont carry payload regularly either. There’s a vast amount truck buyers who don’t see the cyber truck as a truck in the slightest. Just the idea of it not being able to tow will put the vast majority of truck buyers...
  7. Towing tested with 6,000lb Tesla and trailer load

    I know right. We have only just recently found out the specs advertised 4 years ago are not even close. The specs they advertise now are not even close and the response from some is buy a fossil burner it’s not meant to be used as a truck. These same people have been arguing with the people...
  8. Towing tested with 6,000lb Tesla and trailer load

    depends. I know guys that drive 3hrs each way. My commute is literally 30seconds to 5mins. Unless I goto the suppliers. the charging is unlikely on most sites. My sites here have temp power but some sites run in generators all day.
  9. Towing tested with 6,000lb Tesla and trailer load

    Yet there’s people who say well don’t tow! If I wanted a vehicle that didn’t tow I wouldn’t buy a truck. The CT has diesel HP and TQ and 12k tow rating. Why have that if you are not towing. It’s a truck not a race car. I would have been happy with 150miles. I would have made do wilth 100miles...
  10. In 4 years how much more value will the Foundation Series have over normal?

    This really can’t be predicted. It’s not a limited run vehicle like the Raptor R as there were only 5000 of them made and quite a few are still sitting on dealers lots. There will likely be demand for the CT beast in the first year as it’s very limited currently but not being able to sell...
  11. Towing tested with 6,000lb Tesla and trailer load

    That’s my hope too. mines meant to be mid summer to end of year. I’m hoping there will be some significant software updates to fix the charge speeds and stupidly low range issues. Yeah it’s easy for people to say buy another truck because the cyber truck is not for me. Why design a truck that...
  12. Towing tested with 6,000lb Tesla and trailer load

    I just commented on another thread about waiting for this. But it’s not good news I see. My trailer is an enclosed 7x14 3500lb tandem axle. If the towing figures are this bad on that trailer then my trailer will likely be twice as bad. I really wanted to see around 150miles towing when I...
  13. Beast better than AWD, change my mind

    I’m waiting to see how this pans out. I don’t know a lot about how they calculate range on EV’s as I don’t own one. CT would be my first but it was kind of a shock waiting 4 years and the range being 320miles and now real world tests are showing 200 on the highway that’s big problem. 320 miles...
  14. Is the tonneau waterproof?

    It would be stupid if they didn’t design the cover to make the bed mostly water tight. People buy covers for a couple of reasons. 1. To secure stuff in the bed 2. To keep stuff dry Some people require both and tonneau cover are normally rated to show if they are secure and water tight. The...
  15. Cybertruck takes a dump of cinder blocks in its bed and shows no damage (posted by official CT twitter)

    I would take the dump trailer before getting it put in my truck bed. Ain’t no one gonna be happy with shoveling that out the bed. My trucks 15 years old. It’s been used in my construction business that whole time. Yeah it’s pretty it’s platinum ?
  16. I ordered a CyberTruck 4 years ago, why don’t I receive an invite to purchase?

    I'm in the Canis Dwarf galaxy and i'm also waiting for my invite. I'm not sure what the delay is. I'm only 25k light years away!
  17. New PowerShare emails: Cybertruck Foundation Series owners get 1 year supercharging credit if they're not eligible for install

    You should be happy about this. You get to pay a ton of money for a few hundred $ of super charging. That’s a great feature
  18. Beast better than AWD, change my mind

    I don’t think people under stand how hard it to take a vehicle from a 4second 0-60 to a 3 second 0-60. It’s easy going from a 6 second to a 5 second 0-60 in comparison. 3.0 seconds was only in the realm of hyper cars and rally cars and now it’s in almost 7000lb trucks. They’re a large premium...
