The problem is that this happens within normal spec. He explains it in the video.
So you're probably fine towing at the rated limit... as long as you stay on flat ground. As soon as you crest a hill, all that weight becomes vertical for a few seconds.
Additionally, aluminum stresses over time, like bending a piece of plastic. The first time you do it, it might be fine. The tenth time it might not.
The Cybertruck is not for serious towing.
"What do the regulations state..."
Musk: HAHAHAHAHAHAHAA! I fired all the regulators and Trump is deleting all the regulations. Good luck.
Built Fascist Tough!
BTW, the "truck" in the picture is totaled. This is because the entire frame of this piece of shit is polycarbonate.
Wait a minute… This thing is built with the same materials as that Titanic mini sub that imploded?
This really isn't a dunk on cyber trucks based on the comment (no actual numbers). Things tend to get damaged when you overload them in a way they aren't designed to handle.
In the video, they did the same to a 2004 Dodge Ram and it would not break at all.
The cybertruck is just built cheaply, it would be fine if it wasn't advertised like it's comparable to an actual vehicle made for towing.
Yeah, what exactly was done to make that fail?
Oh, silly me, we're here to dunk on Musk! Facts be damned, who needs 'em! Yet lemmy dunks on conservatives for the exact same behavior.
I'd love for one of those to come through with a hitch wanting an 8' tall pallet of mulch. I'd make damned sure I had witnesses of the owner agreeing and I'd drop that fucker on there.
What exactly was done to make it fail? They overloaded the tongue's rated capacity by 900%.
