What sort of engineering standards are these Cybertrucks built to? Oh, very rigorous engineering standards. The wheels aren't supposed to fall off for a start.
At least they aren’t using Full Self Engineering (yet).

Dang you nailed my profile perfect. I bought one and its the best car I've ever had. Event though I was never a "truck" buyer it checked off all my needs: - space for wife, car seats + another adult when needed - haul around my kids, 4 bikes, skis, camping gear, etc. - drives itself - we do a ton of road trips - luxury - electric, tired of going to gas stations Wasn't another car on the market that checked those boxe…
F150 Lightning checked all those boxes and also isn’t a complete piece of shit that sheds parts on the road.

This surely must be sarcasm.
Right...?

Blame it on a loose nut behind the steering wheel.

>Wasn't another car on the market that checked those boxes. Outside of "drives itself", I fail to see how much of what you described is unique. Seems very ordinary.
Nothing fits in this category, it's revolutionary (if you ignore every electric SUV on the market) !!
Buyers who got an expensive and gaudy pile of shit will never want to admit their pile of shit doesn't smell to themselves.

Literally everything you listed can be done with any SUV.

It was never meant for construction workers. It was meant for the owners of small construction companies. I used to work for a swimming pool contractor. He didn't own a shovel. He made $600k a year. So did his plumber best friend. And his buddy that did concrete work. I actually also worked on their small time NASCAR team, since they had so much money to burn. The cyber truck is perfect for them.
I race cars, I have never seen one at the track, they’re a toy.
But you’re exactly right. They’re for the polished shoes folks, not the steel toes

Jerry has one of the worst cases of TDS (Tesla Derangement Syndrome). In his video he applies 10,000 lbs of downward force directly on the hitch point before it breaks, and then says that it "is far too close to the 11,000 pound towing capacity. Yikes." He's a smart guy, he knows downward pressure at the hitch point (tongue weight) is a much different rating than towing capacity. Tongue weight is usually estimated at…
That’s a lot of text for you to not realize these are the exact lateral forces a hitch faces when towing. One pothole and your payload is causing a pileup
