Aw man, this was a fun video! I LOVE tractor and truck pulls! I love the all the things you are doing with the cybertruck! We will never see anyone else put the damn thing in a sled pull, like you guys LOL!
Going to tractor pulling in Germany since 1978 since I was 4 yrs. Never knew this so detailed! Thanks and thumbs up for the superb explanation and both trucks pull's! 🇩🇪❤️🇺🇲 Best wishes from Germany! (Got 8 Teslas. Not kidding. ✌️😎✌️)
@@4literfandaniel373 -- You are easily impressed. The explanation was good, but it was more mechanics than physics. He just told us where, when, and how the weight was applied. That was purely an explanation of the mechanical apparatus that moves the sled and drops it off its wheels, putting load on the vehicle. Physics would be explaining drag coefficients, normal force, materials composition, shock, strain, stress etc, and most of those are used by mechanics and in engineering, as well...
@@kender1412 dude, just let people enjoy things. This isn’t a popular mechanics page, they review trucks for Christ sakes. Sorry I didn’t get a college degree. I just thought it was a detailed explanation. Nothing more annoying than a self proclaimed genius looking for validation by picking apart a comment on the internet.
Fck no it's not. Ppl from Cali keep having a house built here then leaving. All they do is drive up rent and living costs. They can't handle the elevation.
@@tabithaswartz6139It’s not about the vehicles being able to handle it, it’s about companies with crazy restrictions on their warranty. Tesla is well known for voiding people’s warranty for things that they really shouldn’t. And Dodge/Ram is almost as bad. Tesla actually employs people just to look for their vehicles online and they stop the warranty if they don’t like what you are doing with their vehicle.

The cast aluminum is pretty strong but very brittle compared to steel. It will do just fine if you load it along the right axis. Obviously that doesn’t always happen when towing but a tractor pull is about the best case scenario for the aluminum.
I agree, I think the problem is the way they pushed EV's on people. Politicians talking about making laws that by 2035 all new cars will need to be EV. If they promoted EV as an alternative for people interested and stopped with the false claims about it being environmentally friendly I think less people would have such a bad attitude about them. Simple truth is EV's simply don't work for a lot of people while they do work for some others. Let the individual decide what is right for them and keep the government out of it.
@@awdeveau I agree with you. The only advantage to having governments set a deadline is that it gives a push to manufacturers, scientists and inventors to develop battery and charging technology that would be a real viable alternative to our current combustion engines and hopefully, even surpass them in range and performance. Thus far, the technology doesn't look as if it is going to materialise before that deadline. In the meantime, I'm sticking to my 3 litre diesel. Whilst I don't think that current battery technology is as green as they are touting, I do advocate that vehicles in cities with heavy traffic congestion be mostly EVs as that would really help to keep the air quality in cities and large towns cleaner and healthier. In that respect, EVs have an important role to play.
I'm not a CyberTruck fan, but I think the results come down to tires and weight. The CyberTruck has plenty of power, but that doesn't mean much if there's no traction. So while I'm happy to see the Ram win, it ultimately doesn't mean as much as people probably want to think. Also have to say, everyone has such a bias against the CT that I actually find myself rooting for it in a way. The people vocally hating it do so for dumb reasons. I don't think anyone is buying a CT to tow cross-country (and if they do, they're stupid). But having a vehicle with a bed for weekend HomeDepot runs or towing a boat to a nearby lake once in a while is a perfectly legitimate task for a vehicle, and it does that just fine. It's probably better thought of as a modern El Camino.. no one ragged on that for having a low payload/towing capacity, yet the CT will also have the benefit of being better in snow, very quick, and more efficient from an energy-per-mile perspective. Sounds like a worthy vehicle to me.. Also, you gotta give credit to Tesla for actually making something so bold and controversial. Every other truck looks pretty much the same, which is fine, but it's nice to see something break the mold and take a chance once in a while. Done with rant, really enjoyed the video 👍🏼
Looks like the back wheel motor stalled out. The truck had plenty of traction. It just needed more like 80% power directed to the back motor. Or the motor isn't powerful enough for this.

@balloonb0y677 how the hell did you come up with this thought is the real question. Traction control, is literally for loss of traction. Had nothing to do with fighting against loss of momentum.

@@volvo09 Not true, the CT can disengage traction control. There are a lot of different driving modes that give you varying degrees of traction, from full on to full off. Plenty of videos out there of the CT drifting on a dirt road.
That was a fun video. The crowd being there made it better. The pressure I felt on your behalf as you were pulling in front of them was palpable. Great job.
Not sure what was different, but the over cranked b-roll, GFX, informative cutaways, and little things like the placement of you guys addressing the camera really made this a fun video to watch. I’ve been watching the channels for a long time and you’re definitely capitalizing on what works and overall production value. Nice!
Sled pulling is awesome. My dad and his buddies used to have pulling trucks and we might actually be building another one at some point. I really dont like the Cybertruck but ig it is kinda interesting to see how it does compared to other trucks. The saying around here is "if parts arent flying you aint trying" because it can get expensive real quick😂
Yes the cybertruck is much more capable, they should have tried with the other modes and maybe also without traction control. Also the tires should be deflated and maybe use better tires
@@StefanoFinocchiaro Kinda what I was thinking too because if you notice at one point shortly after starting the right rear tire was not turning, so I imagine traction control crippled it
Came here to say this. With TC off, it would /could have roasted the tires... which would probably have led to a similar run. I'm no Tesla fan, but it could have done much better.
Outside the practical box yeah. Most people that buy a truck, want a truck. Imagine trying to load or unload a cyberturd from either side like you can do, with any other truck...
@@jamesaustralian9829 Any other truck except for the ones I see jacked up to where the sides of the box are above head height. The people who buy trucks for "practical" reasons are a small fraction of the total number of pickup truck buyers. Most pickup trucks are never driven off road and seldom have anything bigger than a bag of groceries put in the bed-- maybe a chest of drawers when their kid moves out of the house. Pickup trucks are largely bought and driven by people who are more concerned about their image than practicality. That's why they sell plastic bed liners for pickup trucks by the hundreds of thousands.
@jamesaustralian9829 most people who buy a truck don't tow anything, especially loads like this on unpaved surfaces. Don't get so triggered little boy
@@jamesaustralian9829 Most people that buy a truck don't even use it for truck things. You probably bought a cummins to look cool lmao. Bro got triggered
Thanks guys. As a non American all of the info this video offered was new to me. The video got me actually more than a bit interested in the sport! Wish i could see a big event live out there over the pond. All kinds of interesting vehicles and powerplants!!! 😊
It’s an American truck built and designed in the US. I can appreciate that over supporting other vehicles. Do I love it? Not really but we have the freedom to buy whatever we want in this country. So let people do whatever they want.
I don’t agree with some of the things California does, but overall they typically are following the trends in Europe. Which are way ahead when it comes to protecting people from hazardous or cancer Causing materials.
Ask a farmer how far a electric car will go On one 400 W solar panel given the normal day of five hours at Full sun and see what their answer is. His answer will be I don’t know, but it can’t go very far. Then he will say it’s just common sense.
@@AdrianMcDaid its not even about accepting change. Rednecks love to see what random crap can do so it'd be right up their alley later on when these dumpster fires are in the junk yard
Andree and Roman, great video. I think if I recall the Rivian did a lot better in the tractor pulling than your cyber truck just did but you only have the dual. Y’all need a new 2025 Rivianquad and try. at almost 1200 pound foot lbs of torque the new Rivian should put on a show.
Great entertainment. Learned a ton about sled pulling. Can't wait for the rematch with the CyberBeast! I have a Cybertruck on order... I'm guessing one year until delivery. Can't wait!!! Thanks guys!
You can hear the Big Oil CEOs laughing. We have been brainwashed since we first rolled our hot wheel truck across the living room with a Shell Oil sticker on it. The hate is real. But just like electric cars...they got faster, longer mileage, and smarter designs. I myself am tired of fighting in wars over oil. To the hecklers out there...I say sign up your kids and grandkids for enlisted duty overseas this US Soldier has taken off his camo....
Folks in the heartland hate on anything that doesn't burn fossil fuels, but they're A-OK with big government handing out fat checks when their crops fail increasingly as our climate goes berserk. I do think that they want a stable climate, but also that they're not willing to change a thing or spend a dime to achieve it.
you'd prefer to fight wars over lithium & cobalt mines? I like EV's, but dont act like going to EV's will eliminate resource wars, it will just change where they are.
@@mtraven23 Ohh, it will not eliminate resource wars. You are correct. But condemning new technology just for the good feeling of group mentality should stop. It really shows how Big Oil has us following them like sheep to the slaughter. Thanks for your opinion and pointing that fact out.
So you’re another one who doesn’t know that all your diesel and gasoline in Lou boils are refined using cobalt catalysts, which is where the cobalt mining in Africa has started for the American petroleum
It would be cool to see all the full size trucks compete in a tractor pull. F150, Silverado, ram 1500, tundra, and the titan. Just for fun. Or maybe they would only get 5 feet lol.
Why did they think you were from California? The plates say Colorado! Jee some people are so sensitive. You should have brought a John Deere or a Massy
Fun stuff...back in the late 70's at the Sawgrass Recreational Park in Broward County Florida, I pulled a sled with my 71 Jeep CJ5 with a 4Cylinder, second gear low range, nearly a full pull...I think that motor had maybe 45 HP! Tractors do it all the time.... We are all so obsessed with HP that we forget that people pulled very heavy things with way less...it is about traction and gears!
considering the fixed 60/40 split between front and rear in this case. the tri motor is better because of the 2 rear motors not sharing the power for the 2 rear wheels and better of being 80/20 or option to change on the fly when less traction on front or rear to push to the wheels that have the traction apply more power to them
Better tires (!) and more weight on the rear of the CT would have exceeded 300 feet easy. Come on TFL - get the CT proper A/T tires like you did for the Ram. The OEM tires are a compromise at best as most people prefer range over off road vs TFL which focuses on off road driving and upgrades the tires on most of your trucks. DO IT 🙏
For the record, Tesla SuperCharger rates are typically 3x the local residential rate that is in effect at that time of day. You can charge at home for 1/3 to 1/5 that cost depending on time of day. That means the CyberTruck could have gotten that 107 KWH of energy at home for about $12.
Only people lucky enough to own a house with its own land where you can park next to your own house can 'charge at home'. The other 90% of people cannot.
Yup. Charging my car at $0.11 / KWh at home, in Colorado. 100 miles cost me $3. 100 miles w my Ford Explorer cost $14 😂 Guess which own I use when just need to commute...
Great video, guys! I think we need to get all the electric pickup trucks setup with the best tires and suspension setups and have some experienced sled-pullers do some pulls. I think that would be awesome! Lets keep in mind that sled pulls aren't generally done using stock trucks, so lets give the EVs the advantage they need as well.
I like how the announcer was egging the crowd on. 🤣. Cheer me or boo me, but buy a ticket! Don't take the boos personally guys,. It's just part of the show.👍
no, it’s not part of the show. That comment that Person made is exactly what they meant and I know this because I had one of these people shout at me as he drove by when I was plugging in the companies electric vehicle.
@@SeohnAranys ...and the fans who boo'd Earnhardt really didn't like him. I spent quite a few years covering Motorsports as an event photographer. I'm going to stick with it being an integral part of the show. Just like a football game. If the crowd isn't wound up about something then it's going to be boring.
That is why I hate the EV's, the government says you will like it or else. The ultimate goal is no personal transportation for the vast majority of people.
@@jebsdaddy141 Yup I would have no beef with EVs if they were not government subsidized. Government rebates when you buy it, cheaper or free license plates and they don't pay anything towards road maintenance. If you grow your own corn and turn it in to ethanol and fuel your car with it you still owe the government motor fuel tax for every gallon you use. Same if you run a diesel on waste oil. EVs get to use the roads yet pay nothing towards their upkeep. When and if EVs were ready for prime time people would switch on their own. They wouldn't have to be bribed with taxpayer money or forced into it because everything else is banned. The government didn't have to pay people to switch from horses to Model Ts. Imagine that when Henry Ford built his quadracycle (the car he made before the Model T) the government said "Wow that is great! Let's start killing horses and demand people drive Quadracycles." That would have been a disaster. I think the whole "phasing out all ICE by 2030" will be a disaster. When and if EVs are ready, people will buy them. For most people they just are not worth it yet.
@@jebsdaddy141 I love that you think you even have a say or choice in the matter, Ev's have already been choosen as the future. If you look at europe for example they have already begin the transition and america will not fall behind.
Did you turn traction control off? Were you in tow mode? lockers on? would be interesting to learn if there's options you could've changed to give you more distance
are you drunk?! the cummins diesel has barely 400hp, the tesla two motors has 600hp+ the tesla is the most powerful truckand really mind blowing the less powerful diesel tows 20,000lbs while the tesla barely 11,000lbs.
a 260hp bmw x5 diesel tows about 7700lbs while the 1020hp tesla modelx plaid barely tows 5000lbs. the diesel still gets way more range even while towing than the electric one.
@@alanmay7929I think there is far more to towing than engine horsepower and torque. The cybertruck wasn’t meant to compete against 2500 diesel trucks. It was meant to be an EV. It does everything very well. If you don’t like it, that’s fine. But no need to be rude
@@b22chris wow!!! rude how exactly?! wasnt the cybertruck made to get 500 miles? tow 14,000lbs..... of course it doesnt compare to 2500hd, but even a good specced ford f150 can tow up to 14,000lbs and also didnt tesla did a stunt on internet against a ford f350?! what was the point of that?!
@@b22chris its funny how EVs are very good at 0-60 but when it comes to real stuffs there is nothing to show literaly! a body on frame truck is made to have single/double cab! longer bed! allow tons and tons of customisations from dump truck to utility truck bed, ambulance and much more!

Where you getting diesel for 2.65 a gallon? National average is 3.44
Right? Here in ATL it's closer to $4 statewide and not readily available either. 🤔
Yeah true, now that I think of it, it’s generally a dollar more than gas at $4.39
Temu
We were in east Texas this past Christmas and it was around 2.65-2.69 the whole week.
It's closer to 5 in northern CA
Not sure what was different, but the over cranked b-roll, GFX, informative cutaways, and little things like the placement of you guys addressing the camera really made this a fun video to watch. I’ve been watching the channels for a long time and you’re definitely capitalizing on what works and overall production value. Nice!
That truck is more American made than anything in the parking lot.
Sled pulling is awesome. My dad and his buddies used to have pulling trucks and we might actually be building another one at some point. I really dont like the Cybertruck but ig it is kinda interesting to see how it does compared to other trucks. The saying around here is "if parts arent flying you aint trying" because it can get expensive real quick😂
Traction control really strangled the fridge today😂
Yes the cybertruck is much more capable, they should have tried with the other modes and maybe also without traction control. Also the tires should be deflated and maybe use better tires
@@StefanoFinocchiaro 100%. These guys are such amateurs.
@@StefanoFinocchiaro Kinda what I was thinking too because if you notice at one point shortly after starting the right rear tire was not turning, so I imagine traction control crippled it
Came here to say this. With TC off, it would /could have roasted the tires... which would probably have led to a similar run. I'm no Tesla fan, but it could have done much better.
😂😂😂😂😂
You can say what you want about the cyber truck, but they’re thinking outside the box with videos and I appreciate that
Outside the practical box yeah. Most people that buy a truck, want a truck. Imagine trying to load or unload a cyberturd from either side like you can do, with any other truck...
@@jamesaustralian9829 Any other truck except for the ones I see jacked up to where the sides of the box are above head height. The people who buy trucks for "practical" reasons are a small fraction of the total number of pickup truck buyers. Most pickup trucks are never driven off road and seldom have anything bigger than a bag of groceries put in the bed-- maybe a chest of drawers when their kid moves out of the house. Pickup trucks are largely bought and driven by people who are more concerned about their image than practicality. That's why they sell plastic bed liners for pickup trucks by the hundreds of thousands.
@jamesaustralian9829 most people who buy a truck don't tow anything, especially loads like this on unpaved surfaces. Don't get so triggered little boy
@@jamesaustralian9829 Most people that buy a truck don't even use it for truck things. You probably bought a cummins to look cool lmao. Bro got triggered
big ups that lady that had you - this truck pull club needs the love
Thanks guys. As a non American all of the info this video offered was new to me. The video got me actually more than a bit interested in the sport! Wish i could see a big event live out there over the pond. All kinds of interesting vehicles and powerplants!!! 😊
It’s an American truck built and designed in the US. I can appreciate that over supporting other vehicles. Do I love it? Not really but we have the freedom to buy whatever we want in this country. So let people do whatever they want.
Unfortunately, California wants to change what you can buy. They will dictate your choices.
I don’t agree with some of the things California does, but overall they typically are following the trends in Europe. Which are way ahead when it comes to protecting people from hazardous or cancer Causing materials.
Ask a farmer how far a electric car will go On one 400 W solar panel given the normal day of five hours at Full sun and see what their answer is. His answer will be I don’t know, but it can’t go very far. Then he will say it’s just common sense.
@@johnstubbe3113 It will charge his cell phone, and that’s about it.
Wow! What a fun video! Roman seemed more nervous doing this than going up the side of a mountain. HAHA
One of the best TFL videos you've done recently.
Cybertruck test. 17:15
14:40 what are those big lines hooked up to the exhaust collectors? Those don't look like any O2 sensors I've ever seen.
My dad is in the crowd! Glad you guys made it out to Sterling!
Is he one of the bitter ones who can't accept change ?
@@AdrianMcDaid its not even about accepting change. Rednecks love to see what random crap can do so it'd be right up their alley later on when these dumpster fires are in the junk yard
That def aint a pull in wisconsin stands would be full
There were there early hoping for no crowd actually.
@@Scott-sm9nmYou don’t generally have the drivers meeting and pulls going in the background “early”. That was the crowd
This was a very fun and entertaining video to watch! Keep up the great work fellas!
Thanks! Will do!
Can you turn traction control off? In pulling wheel speed is where it's at.
I don't know if it was asked but did your rear wheels lock up and just have your front going? On the cyber truck?
15:40 straight to business.
Thanx
So much yapping in these videos 🤣
Legend! You saved us all much time!
@@Dm0stFin3sTThe video have to be 20 minutes for the algorithm
Thanks for saving 15 minutes I’d not be able to recover
This needs to be a regular thing. now we need to know what Ford and GM can do.
Andree and Roman, great video. I think if I recall the Rivian did a lot better in the tractor pulling than your cyber truck just did but you only have the dual. Y’all need a new 2025 Rivianquad and try. at almost 1200 pound foot lbs of torque the new Rivian should put on a show.
Agreed.
@@TFLtruck A $/foot metric might apply.
Great entertainment. Learned a ton about sled pulling. Can't wait for the rematch with the CyberBeast! I have a Cybertruck on order... I'm guessing one year until delivery. Can't wait!!! Thanks guys!
It's been so many years since I've watched Fast Lane that I forgot who they are. It only took me less than 2 minutes to regret clicking on this video.
Cool to learn how the sleds work at a tractor pull. Surprised how well the stock 2500 did.
Had a blast with this one! 😊
Roman and Andre should make a driving cross-country buddy movie.
😂 that’s funny
Whistlindiesel's cybertruck whole rear end broke off the frame when he tried to tow an f150, did you reinforce yours?
If you watch the video you see the rear was damaged in a previous jump, that's why it broke off
I don't recall hearing anything about locking the differentials on the Cybertruck (were they?) or what offroad mode and terrain mode was being used.
I wondered that too. I also think he said it’s a dual motor vs Tri motor
Great idea guys
Yah. This should apply to every new truck type with a hitch.
You can hear the Big Oil CEOs laughing. We have been brainwashed since we first rolled our hot wheel truck across the living room with a Shell Oil sticker on it. The hate is real. But just like electric cars...they got faster, longer mileage, and smarter designs. I myself am tired of fighting in wars over oil. To the hecklers out there...I say sign up your kids and grandkids for enlisted duty overseas this US Soldier has taken off his camo....
Folks in the heartland hate on anything that doesn't burn fossil fuels, but they're A-OK with big government handing out fat checks when their crops fail increasingly as our climate goes berserk. I do think that they want a stable climate, but also that they're not willing to change a thing or spend a dime to achieve it.
you'd prefer to fight wars over lithium & cobalt mines?
I like EV's, but dont act like going to EV's will eliminate resource wars, it will just change where they are.
@@mtraven23 Ohh, it will not eliminate resource wars. You are correct. But condemning new technology just for the good feeling of group mentality should stop. It really shows how Big Oil has us following them like sheep to the slaughter. Thanks for your opinion and pointing that fact out.
@@guest6423Buying a Cybertruck isn’t saving the planet or making the weather more stable. 🙄
So you’re another one who doesn’t know that all your diesel and gasoline in Lou boils are refined using cobalt catalysts, which is where the cobalt mining in Africa has started for the American petroleum
It would be cool to see all the full size trucks compete in a tractor pull. F150, Silverado, ram 1500, tundra, and the titan. Just for fun. Or maybe they would only get 5 feet lol.
the different classes have different sled weights, so they could have that competition, but the results wouldn't be comparable.
@17:55 for what you came here to see.
Around 18:04 you can see the rear wheels of the Cybertruck stopped working because it couldn't handle the weight. There had to some damage done?
My brother in law tried to pull a sled with an old mail jeep, it went 6" down. The sled didn't budge.
"Go back to California" I thought he was from Austria?
Russia. And the truck is from Texas.
Americans don’t care, they see a cybertruck then you’re automatically from Cali lol
Russia?
@@2URLexyou’re not lying. If you’re brown they automatically think you’re Mexican. Asian looking? China. Children make fewer loose associations.
@@zachlafond2652 yes, Andre is Russian.
Why did they think you were from California? The plates say Colorado! Jee some people are so sensitive. You should have brought a John Deere or a Massy
Fun stuff...back in the late 70's at the Sawgrass Recreational Park in Broward County Florida, I pulled a sled with my 71 Jeep CJ5 with a 4Cylinder, second gear low range, nearly a full pull...I think that motor had maybe 45 HP! Tractors do it all the time.... We are all so obsessed with HP that we forget that people pulled very heavy things with way less...it is about traction and gears!
considering the fixed 60/40 split between front and rear in this case. the tri motor is better because of the 2 rear motors not sharing the power for the 2 rear wheels and better of being 80/20 or option to change on the fly when less traction on front or rear to push to the wheels that have the traction apply more power to them
Better tires (!) and more weight on the rear of the CT would have exceeded 300 feet easy.
Come on TFL - get the CT proper A/T tires like you did for the Ram. The OEM tires are a compromise at best as most people prefer range over off road vs TFL which focuses on off road driving and upgrades the tires on most of your trucks. DO IT 🙏
For the record, Tesla SuperCharger rates are typically 3x the local residential rate that is in effect at that time of day. You can charge at home for 1/3 to 1/5 that cost depending on time of day. That means the CyberTruck could have gotten that 107 KWH of energy at home for about $12.
Only people lucky enough to own a house with its own land where you can park next to your own house can 'charge at home'. The other 90% of people cannot.
Yup. Charging my car at $0.11 / KWh at home, in Colorado.
100 miles cost me $3.
100 miles w my Ford Explorer cost $14 😂
Guess which own I use when just need to commute...
Sled pulling is awesome! Loved that!
Roman to sled bro: I want to run through flames and not get burnt. Love you man!
You guys are awesome thanks for the video!
Our pleasure!
Seeing Roman's hipster jeans, the crowd wasn't booing the cybertruck...
Great video, guys!
I think we need to get all the electric pickup trucks setup with the best tires and suspension setups and have some experienced sled-pullers do some pulls. I think that would be awesome!
Lets keep in mind that sled pulls aren't generally done using stock trucks, so lets give the EVs the advantage they need as well.
"Have a nice trip back to California." 😂 That ish was funny.
17:55 How come rear wheels were not spinning?
I like how the announcer was egging the crowd on. 🤣. Cheer me or boo me, but buy a ticket!
Don't take the boos personally guys,. It's just part of the show.👍
Every good wrestling match needs a heel...
no, it’s not part of the show. That comment that Person made is exactly what they meant and I know this because I had one of these people shout at me as he drove by when I was plugging in the companies electric vehicle.
@@SeohnAranys ...and the fans who boo'd Earnhardt really didn't like him.
I spent quite a few years covering Motorsports as an event photographer. I'm going to stick with it being an integral part of the show. Just like a football game. If the crowd isn't wound up about something then it's going to be boring.
Let the people buy what they want to drive dont force things on the people 🤟🤟🤟
That is why I hate the EV's, the government says you will like it or else. The ultimate goal is no personal transportation for the vast majority of people.
@@jebsdaddy141 Yup I would have no beef with EVs if they were not government subsidized.
Government rebates when you buy it, cheaper or free license plates and they don't pay anything towards road maintenance.
If you grow your own corn and turn it in to ethanol and fuel your car with it you still owe the government motor fuel tax for every gallon you use.
Same if you run a diesel on waste oil.
EVs get to use the roads yet pay nothing towards their upkeep.
When and if EVs were ready for prime time people would switch on their own.
They wouldn't have to be bribed with taxpayer money or forced into it because everything else is banned.
The government didn't have to pay people to switch from horses to Model Ts.
Imagine that when Henry Ford built his quadracycle (the car he made before the Model T) the government said "Wow that is great! Let's start killing horses and demand people drive Quadracycles."
That would have been a disaster.
I think the whole "phasing out all ICE by 2030" will be a disaster.
When and if EVs are ready, people will buy them.
For most people they just are not worth it yet.
@@jebsdaddy141 Good....Let the hate flow through you!!!
@@jebsdaddy141 I love that you think you even have a say or choice in the matter, Ev's have already been choosen as the future. If you look at europe for example they have already begin the transition and america will not fall behind.
@@Json918 Glad you like your corral, sheep.
Great video, loved it.
He said he can come back with a tri motor, Roman should've said then I'll come back with the H.O. Cummins.
Right? 😂
Interesting I
I did not know how the system worked at all.
Really informative.
Thanks
The CT was at 60% when it started. What was it when it finished?
I'm torn. Not an EV fan at all, but CT is at least MIUSA.

I love it when so-called "educated" people look down on uneducated people as if being educated means you're more intelligent.
Great video guys! Thanks for the modesty and humor. Good clean fun
Did you turn traction control off? Were you in tow mode? lockers on? would be interesting to learn if there's options you could've changed to give you more distance
Kyle from Out Of Spec Motoring should try it in the Cyberbeast to see if it can achieve any different results
Great video. Cyber truck pulling over 200 feet is very impressive when it’s going up against a much more powerful truck
are you drunk?! the cummins diesel has barely 400hp, the tesla two motors has 600hp+ the tesla is the most powerful truckand really mind blowing the less powerful diesel tows 20,000lbs while the tesla barely 11,000lbs.
a 260hp bmw x5 diesel tows about 7700lbs while the 1020hp tesla modelx plaid barely tows 5000lbs. the diesel still gets way more range even while towing than the electric one.
@@alanmay7929I think there is far more to towing than engine horsepower and torque. The cybertruck wasn’t meant to compete against 2500 diesel trucks. It was meant to be an EV. It does everything very well. If you don’t like it, that’s fine. But no need to be rude
@@b22chris wow!!! rude how exactly?! wasnt the cybertruck made to get 500 miles? tow 14,000lbs..... of course it doesnt compare to 2500hd, but even a good specced ford f150 can tow up to 14,000lbs and also didnt tesla did a stunt on internet against a ford f350?! what was the point of that?!
@@b22chris its funny how EVs are very good at 0-60 but when it comes to real stuffs there is nothing to show literaly! a body on frame truck is made to have single/double cab! longer bed! allow tons and tons of customisations from dump truck to utility truck bed, ambulance and much more!
great test, you guys are awesome!!
You rock!🪨
Can't wait for the Cyberbeast test!
I saw no wheel spin on the cybertruck did you have traction control on
TIRES TIRES TIRES!!!!! Put OFF ROAD tires on the CT THEN see what happens!!! you where using ALL SEASON on the truck!!! Thats like putting snow shoes on a down hill skier!!!
Cyber truck is way overpriced and can never replace a real truck. Towing is a small part of what a truck is used for.
Seems all 8 people were mad
