That truck looks 100 times better with those fender flares y'all made for it. Elon should take notice.

[@joepitts3638]

I think the issue is wind drag. The fenders definitely improved the look, but will most likely hurt efficiency, which to each consumer may not be an issue, but the ones that buy the truck and try to get the most range it will be an issue. Its all good though, the aftermarket will have the consumers back.

[@mikebashford8198]

4 quarts of oil is about 7 pounds. 21 quarts of oil is about 36 pounds. So in a situation where the ring gets hooked on something, it's far safer to wear a generic rubber ring. It's even safer not to wear a ring at all. I used to wear a ring, but stopped when a friend of mine lost a finger by shorting his wedding ring across a truck battery.

[@AB-pc7do]

Yeah exactly some pretty bad marketing right there

Put hydraulics on CyberTrax and a HUGE subwoofer setup on that battery because you would need 10 alternators to provide that battery current otherwise. I literally typed this early in the video and once you mentioned hydraulics I realized this was not just coincidental, I needed to edit and bring something up for you to consider. I put hydraulics on 3 vehicles in my time but that was 20+ years ago. 16 switches will require 4 pumps and 4 dumps or 2 pumps with a gnarly custom made 8 dump manifold and a few extra check valves. Buy lots of extra keys for between the pump head and the motor of the hydraulic pumps because I am sure you guys are gonna put some to the test. 48 Volts might be quick enough (especially with the available amperage) but I don't know what that cyber truck weighs. I would be willing to help brainstorm or even help build. I worked in TV production for 13 years with many networks, mainly for ESPN working as a traveling utility for Monday Night Football.

I have been watching your videos for a couple of yearS or more and have to say it is great to see how much evolution is happening right in front of everybodys eyes. You use to be in a smaller shop, had less toys, less equipment and largely focused on towing. These days you are opening up to all sorts of possibilities and having fun doing it. Witnessing your growth, educating yourself, experimenting with things many only dream of, then educating and entertaining the public through your videos....EXCELLENT JOB!! I have always said, if people open up, come together on projects and technology WE as a whole can accomplish almost anything. People are generally scared of innovation, scared of losing the "traditional" things in life. Imagine, a phone that we can use while we drive, without a long cord. Imagine, heating your food up in seconds. Imagine, a power saving diode emitting more light than a tungsten bulb...evolution...who woulda thunk it? LOL. If WE come together and support innovation, it will be much easier, and more enjoyable to progress with success rather than regress or not even trying. EV's may not be for every application or best for all conditions however, if we keep trying WE'LL get there. One of the first cars ever built was electric...Jay Leno owns one.

[@rictownend]

Man you have some crazy sic ideas… Battery charge like a fighter jet refuel on the go, that would be mental!

[@vossti]

I have a customer at my work that is in the engineering side of the suspension of that truck and he and all of them at Tesla have seen these videos. He said that upper control arm was designed the way it was because if it was stiffer and didn’t crush when damaged that it would push into the front or rear tub of the chassis and basically total the truck.

We will see its true Toughness. Just not on this channel. Whistling Diesel will really test it.

[@LittleMonk102]

This, it's cheaper to replace a control arm than it is a whole new truck.

I really like how Dave spend the time to explain the "science" to us!!

[@marc4661]

Normally I would say you are pretty spot on. But Tesla is struggling with quality control and lots of assembly issues. I think that the truck is amazing and it's great that you got to really see what they are capable of with some modifications to make it your own.

im not a fan of the stock cybertruck look but ill be honest this one looks insane. Something about the bumper, fender flares, and light bar just completes the look somehow and makes it actually look good. I think the fender flares and stance widening in particular is what the stock one is missing.

Cyber-sander or cyber-slyder. Or slyder with no cyber. Or you could call it Glyder. I think calling it slyder is a good reference to how this cyberteuck drives. The y makes reference to the y in cyber. It lifts up a lot of sand and snow, like a boat.

And you even found water on Mars!

Bro I’d absolutely love to see a beast edition cyber drift truck goings sideways around a track but it being a low rider would be sick asf along with a ripsaw one would be sick asf too

Sup Dave. The names Fredo from Denver now living in Lakewood Co. I'm from a family full of outdoorsmen from fishing, shooting, camping, hunting and 4wheelin and u use to have a lifted Powerwagon that I use to take 4wheelin and rock crawlin at night after I'd rain knowing the shit is gonna be fun till I gotten a dui and got locked up for 13 months and lost my truck. I gotta say, your livin the life I I've been wanting to live just havnt gotten any kind of opportunities to get myself anywhere close to your guys level but anyways, I was just gonna say that you should test that battery life by hauling a trailer behind it and test it goin up I-70 to Eisenhower tunnel. That's where you could test the balls if any truck. Then lift it 6-8inches with 35's-38's and then test it haulin a trailer again to see how that battery holds up. I knw you could buy a battery expansion kit for that truck but it's gonna make thing heavy af. Btw, you should take that Blackhawk to Texas shooting shooting hogs from the air.. Anyways, I'm definitely a fan and I love the content. And I'm out 👊
