Yes electric trucks are just not ready for towing. Also currently in most cases your would have to disconnecvt your trailer to be able to charge.

We tow our trailer (although only 5,500lbs) with a 1/2 ton hybrid. It has great torque and in my opinion is the best of both worlds for a light RV. I get great mileage in the city while it takes advantage of the electric motor but have the range needed when doing bigger trips. I share your opinion about the interior of the CyberTruck but am not a fan of the exterior. Until battery range increases exponentially, they are not viable for anyone that wants to drive more than 2 hours at a time.

Saw one parked at Sams Club today. While beyond ugly but dwarfed vehicles in surrounding spaces - including half ton and 3/4 ton. good to see 4 wheel turn and would need them to negotiate tight parking lot. That full glass roof brought out bad memories from last year in Italy, and luckily with concern about Italian driver stereotypes took out the optional insurance on the rental. Middle of the night had a hail storm with what sounded like baseball size hail at the AirBnB outside Verona. While had major dents and cracked windshield, Hertz couldn't replace it because all their cars were damaged by same storm so drove it to Milan for flight back. Other residents/guest in the AirBnB had far more damage, including busted out windows, in their personal car as they were Europeans. Getting back to Tesla, one guest had friends staying further north at Lake Como where the same storm totally destroyed his glass roof Tesla. Got to the Milan airport, turned in the rental...and owed nothing!

I wonder how it would feel backing an Rv with four wheel stearing. Also I have noticed locally that electric vehicles that don’t use the brakes but just decelerate no brake light go on. I think that could be a potential rear end collision given how quickly electric motors slow down. Thanks for taking us on a towing test drive.

If you find a way to put a 50Kw generator on the bed, you may turn this into a range extender for when towing... They need to add at least more 100Kwh to the battery to make it towing worthy but if they come up with a "self-parking" feature to park the trailer, that will be something...

Over the course of a bright summer day, they would only replace about 10-12% (at best) of the truck's capacity (about 10-12 miles of driving while towing, per your test). Those are some big batteries to charge.

This is to cool. For camping around in state, it would be great and work fine. I could charge it at home, pull to campground in state, then charge the truck at the campsite. So, from a fuel cost, this might be a big savings. Even going out of state to let's say the Smokies, I would only have to charge it once on the way which is no big deal. You guys are great.

I would like more information on how that cyber track does with towing trailer on hills & mountains. I just cant see it towing anything thru the rocky mountains. I agree, i think around town it would be fine. But in areas of our country that some towns are 100's of miles apart or if you live in rural, back country, you'd have to find a charging station before you could turn around & go home. As well as how the batteries don't do well in cold & extreme heat. More research and refinement needs to be made, as well as the cost needs to come down before most people would buy! But, thanks for your fun video. Beautiful photography!

Our country’s infrastructure needs to be part of the discussion. EV’s are heavy vehicles. Some, like the Tesla truck, offer extender packages for the bed of the truck (more batteries for longer range). This adds even more weight. I’m thinking of bridges, roadways, parking garages, etc that were not built with capacity for everyone driving with much heavier vehicles on a routine basis. This doesn’t even include the added burden to our electrical grid nationwide which in some areas of the country would cause havoc. I like the idea of them. Would be great if they recharged fully while driving, could actually tow an RV of mid to large size beyond one hundred miles, and had better more ecological ways of mining for lithium for the batteries (it’s pretty awful from the videos of the process in Africa) and disposal of said batteries. I see nothing wrong for those who want to buy them. It’s just that consumers should not be FORCED to buy them. They do look like they have major innovations. Tesla definitely seems to be way ahead of the game in the EV market.

Others don't recommend towing with the cyber truck unless you want to make a lot of charging stops. There is an electric truck that has enough range for towing. Rivian R1S. Depending on what battery pack you get, you can get 375 to 440 on a charge. Cheaper than the cyber truck. You can go to the rivian factory and they will let you test drive. I think they might let you tow, but one of them would be with you. Problem is, there are hardly any pull through charger stations. You can't charge while driving. Most charging stops are 25 to 40 min up to 80%. Detailed information is on "out of spec" channels on KZbin. The ones will be reviews. The range test, motors. Note: most are between 1 and 2 hours. Some are longer.

I have air suspension on my '23 Tundra, love it. Love it levels your truck after you hook up your load. But, in that thing. If you run low, you can not just pull into any gas station and fill up. There are so few places to recharge and if you can. Do you want to spend couple of hours recharging? That is one of the things the infrastructure package is supposed to help with. Also the battery companies are not going to get EV going until they get charge times down to 30 minutes or less. Tell me this. If you had to pull in and charge up. Would you buy an EV where very time you had to stop, 2 hours ? Or would you get a gas or hybrid. 5 minutes you are on your way ? I am not dissing EV, just the infrastructure is not there yet. Battery charge times is not there yet. It will be, just not at the moment.

I know you are looking for reasons for it to fail but let me tell you as a long Tesla owner my friend. These will still be on the road with original hardware in 10+ years mark my words. I own a Cybertruck, the batteries sure they slowly die but keep in mind there are thousands of batteries in each Tesla so perhaps I will lose range as time goes on but my truck will still work, let’s not forget Tesla will be selling an extended range battery that goes in the flat bed so that will give about another 150 miles of range. I am keeping my Cybertruck forever and if I need new batteries down the road then so be it!

A family in our neighborhood has one. The exterior is not the best. Rivian has trucks that look like our current trucks do. Not sure if performance is any better

For what it is, the Cyber Truck is pretty cool. I'm not a huge EV fan whatsoever, but I would mind driving it around town.

To be able to use an EV truck with an RV, the RV would need regenerative braking that would swnd the energy back to the truck. Then your range might be usable.

If you let off the accelerator, and that simulates braking, does that actuate the brake lights on the trailer, or are you slowing down, without giving drivers behind you any indication?

Yes the lights aluminate just like actually hitting the brakes, I had the same question!

Corey I have two drones one is a very expensive DJI mini and a cheap one I bought on Temu just for testing , now the cheap one I bought I was testing in my garage and somehow it just went nuts and was crashing into everything and and I had no control over this crazy thing lol needless to say I don’t use this one very much and absolutely don’t use it in the garage anymore lmao

Simgle pedal mode is dangerous for first timers. You can set it to use the normal gas pedal go and brake pedal stop functions for forst timers.

I dont hate the cybertruck, but they're ugly (all the teslas are imo) I crashed my drone on our first trip into a creek. The kids retrieved it, let it dry out, and its still working.

Great episode! Nice review on the Cyber Truck. You gave good common sense thoughts on where it can work and where it just isn’t quite ready yet. I love the fact your shirts are a family project and you use your brother’s company to print your them.

Just for information, TFL truck did a road test on the Ike gauntlet and the cyber truck lost half it's range in the mountains.

Its a cool concept.. But not for real world application, I don't think it can match up to a diesel. Yes, around town for short hauls maybe. One thing you didn't mention, How long will it take to charge it? I hear it takes a long time to charge.

Are you sure your trailer is 11k lbs? Mine is 34' and is only 7500lbs GVWR. Not that it matters, just caught my attention when you said it. Great video, thanks for the content!

We’re 35.5 and reflections are heavier to start with , but we have added a lot of stuff… full solar setup, auto level, upgraded suspension, disk brakes , and renovated the interior. We’re also full time so we carry a lot of crap🫣😂

We'll stick to our diesel truck! I'd hate to have to charge the truck cintinously to get to your final destination. Do you know what the cost is to replace the battery in that truck....just curious. After reading on the internet, I believe the replacement cost is some where between $4,000 - $30,000 depending on the size, make, and model of the truck. It's a nice truck but not practical for a farmer/rancher who camps on his/her free time.
