How about a Cybertruck towing a Cybertruck on a Trailer. It would give us an idea about the Truck's towing capacity.
Or a Cybertruck pulling a gooseneck/fifth wheel trailer with a Rivian And a Lightning on board.

5th wheel issues with the CT.Or a Cybertruck pulling a gooseneck/fifth wheel trailer with a Rivian And a Lightning on board.
Looks like they make them so they automatically slide back when the camper (etc) is turning off to the side but I don't see how those sails are going to let you turn.
Ooops, Hadn't thought of sleeper style square front trailers. Maybe a utility trailer would still work with the V style front. We were a bit over weight on the RAMs gooseneck trailer.
I guess it will be bumper pull for the Cybertruck those rear sail panels will likely be at risk backing a trailer anywhere near 90 degrees.

After thinking a bit, having doubts.... the trailer also needs clearance for when the truck goes up a sharp incline and then levels off or starts back down. The side of bed clearance can disappear quickly.That could work depending on how sharp of a turn you take.
Also normally a gooseneck pin is mounted forward of the rear axle centerline which will put the contact points even closer.
Cybertruck should still work well for bumper pull.
The Honda Ridgeline had bed wings or whatever they're called on its first generation and they dropped that and went with a normal truck bed in the next generation.
They get in the way, way more than they help with aerodynamics.

I think they are actually in production and also have two companies that have ordered 100 trucks each. The IRA may help out a lot with this situation from my reading.
