The real purpose of the tri-motor Cybertruck

[Gurule92]

I don't plan on towing. I'll be glad to have the ability if I need to.

I do plan on drag racing this pickup truck. What could be better than beating sports cars in a pickup truck? I can't wait to see their faces.

Quickness vs beauty JMO
This is over played at this point. Most are aware of how quick Tesla’s are but many still prefer driving a sports car on weekends than a sedan or truck for the beauty of the vehicle.
I’ve never had anyone come up to me and tell me how Beautiful my tesla performance version is however I’ve had countless encounters asking about the sports car I may be driving on a particular weekend..

Like a Mazda Miata or something?

I will happily get rid of my sedans and SUVs for the Cybertruck - it will tick all of my boxes and is the perfect answer for the upcoming apocalypse.

you are not going to hold your pee for 500 miles.

Speak for yourself. I can, and often do.

I use to, too. Now, 30 years later, NFW. Your turn will come.

I’m sure it will..... I’m no spring chicken but it still works for me

Yeah, having just done the trip from LA in a car with 325 miles of range, yet I had to stop TWICE for power I am beginning to seriously think about getting the TriMotor instead of the AWD I ordered. Wind and rain can limit your range.

I'll have to look around for a 14,000lb trailer now. Have we figured out if we can tow a 5th wheel yet?

The CT won’t be a 5th wheel towing machine, but you are correct the added range is the big benefit to the CT.

Standard Cybrtrk probably won’t do a 5th wheel, but I suspect a moving ball type 5th wheel will come from a 3rd party. This will be a compromise and limited performance.

Remember the CT is to compete against a F150, not a F250 or F350.

If you wanna tow a 5th wheel with a cybertruck, get one of these: Safety Towing Systems, Inc.. Pretty sure you don't ever wanna put a fifth wheel inside the bed of a cybertruck.

Not having ever towed a 5th wheel I GUESS that you say that because you cannot steer a 5th wheel into a parking space w/o hitting the body of the 5th on the edges of the bed? Is that really that common an issue? Don't most locations have pull thru sites?

Not just the angle while turning. Those 5th wheel trailers are themselves wider than the bed of the pickup, so a lot of those trailers wouldn't clear the body even standing still.

Yep, get the dolly if you want to tow a 5th wheel with a Cybertruck.

I want the Tri-motor for the range. Why would I want to tow anything with it anyway? I'll have a hitch on my Model Y.

 

[andy.connor.e]

Same i want the range, but dont care as much about the 3rd motor towing capacity or acceleration differences. But i know they wont make a dual motor extended pack version....

Please don’t tow with the MY. That’s what’s trucks are for. My is to light, too small and the range won’t tow either.
drive the Y down the street. If you need to tow, get a truck
