The way you promote this on your website is a little misleading. And confusing because the Cybertruck already has less body roll than all other, lighter, 1/2-ton trucks. Yet you claim:

Now… the Cybertruck is one large and heavy vehicle, prone to body roll during high-speed driving, towing, or off-road articulation.
While it's true that every 4-wheel vehicle with a suspension has some amount of body roll, and the higher the speeds around a given corner, the more the body rolls, and that heavier vehicles have a bigger job to control that body roll, I think it's misleading to imply that the Cybertruck is particularly prone to body roll, even when comparing it to trucks that weigh less. And that's exactly the message you imply when when claiming it's "one large and heavy vehicle prone to body roll during high speed driving, towing, or off-road articulation." The Cybertruck corners exceptionally flat when compared to any other 1/2-ton truck with only the OEM front Anti-Sway Bar.

Further, It's confusing why you include towing in there. I have towed all kinds of heavy trailers in many different trucks, and the last thing I ever thought about when towing was body roll, even on trucks that had more body roll than ideal. That would only be a consideration if your setup was already out of control during a catastrophic (or near catastrophic) trailer sway event. In other words, if your tow vehicle was sliding sideways. When towing heavy trailers, slow, smooth and steady wins the race, body sway is not a problem, especially on the Cybertruck.

It's especially confusing why you include body sway being a potential issue when it comes to off-road articulation. Because articulation is a desirable off-road trait, and anti-sway bars run counter to that goal. It's almost as if that gobbly-gook language was thrown in there to make confused newbies think an anti-sway bar would improve off-road performance (when the truth is, it makes off-road performance worse).

Finally, a minor pet peeve nitpick: These bars have been called "Anti-Sway Bars" for many decades before I was born. At some point, that coincided with the popularity of the Internet, people who didn't know any better started calling them "Sway Bars". That is incorrect, misleading, and confusing to newbies. Why can't you just call them what they actually do? They don't make the vehicle sway, they resist the forces that cause sway. And they have been called "Anti-Sway Bars" for over 100 years. Sometimes the best terminology is the easiest to understand terminology that has been in use for over 100 years.

I was just thinking when I used to off-road in my jeap, I was disconnecting the sway bar entirely.

So you're saying we don't need this "upgrade"?
