I have owned four wheel drive trucks for over 30 years. I used my four wheel drive when I was in my 20's to go mudding. The clean-up was terrible and I stopped going mudding for fun. Other than that, I have rarely used the four wheel drive mode. I have never towed anything heavier than about four thousand pounds. All of my trucks have gotten bad gas mileage. My current Titan work truck gets about 10 mpg towing 3500 pounds at about 70 mph. It gets about 8 mpg if I go about 75 to 80. I'm in Texas, so the speed limit is 75 and most people are driving faster than that. The Titan does have 33 inch all terrain tires. My 2019 Ram has 35 inch tires. It was getting about 8 to 10 mpg at 75 miles an hour towing the same trailer. So, in conclusion. I think most Cybertruck buyers by now understand the limitations of the truck. I would guess that 90 percent of Cybertrucks will probably never tow anything. There are Fords, Chevys, GMC's, Rams all around me. I rarely see them towing anything. A few are used as work trucks but mostly used for pleasure. I don't think these issues will keep most people from taking delivery of their Cybertruck. I am also assuming that a few years from now, range and off-roading will be better.
@sunahamanagai9039 4 ай бұрын
Getting bad gas mileage is fine. You just need 5 minutes to refuel. Getting bad mileage on an EV is another story. You have to wait hours to recharge at high frequency. Now imagine doing that off road. Not even possible, unless you carry a generator, which then defeats the purpose of EVs in the first place.

I wouldn't call that an off road tire. It's more like an all season tread pattern. An off road tire is more like a mud terrain. As far as saying "expelling snow leads to poor snow traction" is not only false, but it does not make any sense. You want to expel the snow to clear the tread pattern for more traction. Basically, what you're saying is that a slick would have more traction than an aggressive tread pattern, which is completely false and counter intuitive.

What I got from this analysis, after discounting the presumed negatives, is that the Cybertruck can handle most if not all of the daily needs of a large majority of pickup truck owners. This includes commuting, weekend trips to Home Depot, light hauling, and towing their 20-foot Sea Ray to the local boat ramp. Do people routinely buy trucks based on maximum possible capability, such as buying an F350 dually to perform the prior described tasks? The answer is for the most part, no. If a person is into weekly or monthly cross-country trips, or hauling around their mother-in-law has them worried about losing range, then the truck isn’t for them, and that’s ok.

If you mean can it act like a car ( which is how the majority of truck owners use them) then yes. But if you are using it as a Truck its not good at all., An Ice truck has over 500 miles of usable range .

@@crimsondecade7420Your statment is ignoring the fact many truck owners do not use truck that travels 500 miles daily or regularly. A truck is like a vehicle that can be a car or use to do truck things, hauling large, bulky objects. Why don't ICE trucks have 1 load capacity or tow capacity if everyone is "expected" to do the same tasks day in day out? Why different load capacity from 1,500 lbs or 2,500 lbs or towing limit 11,000 lbs or 14,000 lbs between models and variants? Not to mention they have different fuel capacity variant.

The biggest issues where this truck failed off-road is when the suspension was at max ride height effectively removing the suspensions ability to droop so the tire could touch the ground getting traction. There is something to be said about having the truck in the middle of the suspension stroke so you have equal amounts of suspension droop and tuck keeping the tires planted firmly on the ground. So you are right. There was some user error there. I think there needs to be a baseline of off-roading understanding other than off-road mode running the truck at max tide height virtually killing it's ability to articulate.

I feel like the Cybertruck is a unique vehicle and cutting edge in a lot of ways, but if you need a serious off road vehicle or a rugged work truck then look elsewhere. The range issues and overall weight of electric trucks is, for me, a huge problem with no solution until more advanced battery technology emerges. After a year and a half of ownership I love my Model Y Performance, but for overall general utility and range of uses my Toyota 4Runner wins. I would love to have something like the 4Runner that was electric but nothing like that exists. If I need more range for off road trips I can just carry extra gas. Eventually there will be battery tech that delivers huge range, but not at the moment. I suppose the current crop of electric trucks work well for shorter distance hauling. Still, these trucks weigh a ton and need bigger batteries which means longer charging times with home chargers compared to something like my Model Y.

Tell us what the range is in the typical case. Yes, if you are towing 11,000 lb, in 45° weather, your range is going to take a big hit, no kidding. Do the same thing with any other electric truck and compare the results. Compare the drop in gas mileage if you're using a gas truck. Most importantly, compare the cost per mile to tow an 11,000 lb load with a gas truck versus an electric truck. These hit videos are asinine, they take worst case scenarios, they don't do the proper comparisons, they don't focus on the day-to-day mileage that these things are going to have, just extreme cases, and then they create headlines with buzz phrases like "huge issues".

The need to immediately clean a car after driving in winter when roads are saltet would make this car completely unsuitable for me. According to the manual you have to clean the CT after each and every drive (insects, tar etc.). I thought that stainless steel would make a car immune against dirt & Co..

I have 3 vehicles. 2 for work. 1 for family. 1 diesel, 1 gas, and 1 electric. I’ve got a Ram diesel for hauling campers about 10 days out of the month for my main job. I have a Honda accord that is a family car that my wife primarily drives and we use for any trips or distance driving. I have a Volt I use for a side hustle 10 days a month or so doing ride sharing or DoorDash. I use to have Tesla for that but I hated it and got the Volt and love it. It’s just more utilitarian and functional in my opinion. Delivering campers causes me to be away from my family, this way I can keep it down to a week and a half or so a month. I have specific needs for multiple different vehicles and I doubt I’ll ever own a Tesla again and am completely ok with it.

Did that guy doing the off roading just scrape all the bottom of his cyber truck there? We know what that means if he did, or don't these things have the battery in the floor.

The batteries are in the floor but they’re not just exposed cells down there. They are in an enclosure and protected by skid plates as well.

@@BravestDawg101 That's the case on all EV's isn't it? But there have been cases where insurance companies have wanted to replace whole batteries or even whole cars for small scrapes on the lower outer covering. Because they can't tell if the cells inside have been damaged or not and don't want to risk later fires.

@@pertwee9376 This is a problem that needs solving. EV manufactures need to provide a way to verify batteries. Maybe right in the car. What is currently going on is a bit of a scam. Tesla and others totaled by insurance companies take a boat ride around the world to places like Ukraine where people repair and resell them. Money changes hands a few times. The car carriers do not burn down. Then car owners find out their cars are back on the road again. People are making money.

If you dent the skid plate, they need to check the battery for damage. If you dinged the battery, they may total the vehicle.

Isn’t it 48 volt architecture?
@Cars_and_Games 4 ай бұрын
48 volt refers to the low voltage system. EVs have a low voltage system for running everything except the drive motors and a high voltage system for running the motors/charging system. The cybertruck has 48v low voltage system and an 800v high voltage system.

I repeat. If there is ice under the snow or the driver has been spinning the wheels, as we see in the clip, that truck is resting on 4 very effective bearings. It is not going up the hill. Learn how to drive on snow and ICE.

They need real snow tires. Those so called all terrain tires are pretty much useless in snow. I once passed a bunch of 4x4s going up an icy ski hill road. They were stuck on the side of the road with their mouths hanging open as my Subaru drove right up the hill without a slip. What they didn't know was I had studded snow tires while they were driving on their big summer knobbies. Ain't no way in hell they were climbing that hill without getting out the chains.

The only issue with the Cyber truck for me, is the lack of range. Sure not only did it fall short of Tesla's original announcement but its also much lower than the rest of their fleet. I get 265 miles at 80% on my Model 3, Tesla should have aimed for at least that for this truck. I get it that its a bigger vehicle and all that, but the range is far too little for the price their asking for it. I'll wait for the RAM EV.

To be competitive, I would have thought there should have been a 400-mile version of the cybertruck. I was hoping to get the cybertruck for toeing my 2540 lb camper. My model Y LR only gets 100 to 120 miles of range towing the camper. I was hoping to do a lot better with the cybertruck. Well, see what happens in the next couple of years with the 4680 cells. Hoping improved energy density will get it up to 400 miles or more. We'll see.

@@deanchur- I know of a couple of very high value doctors that shed their high end Porsches after a couple years because the huge ongoing maintenance costs were WAY higher than they foolishly expected. They thought they were just buying a car, but, wow, they should have done more research before the purchase. Whatever you want to buy, purchase with your eyes open and all your ducks in a row.

Ryan, thanks for tackling these issues head-on. It seems as though many KZfaqrs, have been sticking their heads in the sand pretending this truck doesn't have serious issues. Just because it has many breakthrough technologies, that doesn't excuse its significant shortcomings. Please consider doing a video on how much these issues could be fixed through software updates. The charging curve should be able to be altered with software updates, but how much could the range be altered with software? Also, could you talk about the upcoming shift in 4680 battery chemistry and when we could expect to see that in CT production, and how it might impact range? Thanks for your great work!

The CT did pretty good with a 6000 lb trailer in non-freezing weather. That's certainly a more realistic test. If you really need to tow 11k lbs at 70 mph for 500 miles, get a diesel F350 and get your wallet out to pay for fuel.
