Cybertruck Frames are Snapping in Half

[PaulGherkin]

That guy is a certified ****ing lunatic - you should watch his "testing" of various vehicles...

Looks more like a Brakpan tappet to me.

So OP posted the incorrect video and now is surprised that people are confused?

My bad for assuming others could figure it out for themselves.

Nah mate...that's a fail and a sh1tty excuse and you know that.

Just post the correct video next time. Not too much to ask. No one is interested in playing Where's Wally ?

When discussing a movie/series, I actually find it logical to post the correct IMDB link...not some arbitrary link to a movie that may contain the same actor or even the same line as the other one.

Yes, I watched the video, it still shouldn't have broke

Wasn't it made out of aluminium? There's your answer.

Have you tried dropping a vehicle from 1m directly onto concrete?

Go film it, let us know how it goes.

You should sell an e-book or start a YouTube channel with such information.

Isn't this what they do in this very video?

You'll then have to buy it and use it.

Only if it comes with a money back guarantee. Considering this is your first complaint I can't be doing so badly, newbie.

Yea, that's my point. The frame did break, but not when they said it did. So it's a completely falsity and misrepresentation. Eh, just Youtuber things I guess.

 

[Fulcrum29]

The video is clearly a publicity stunt. At the end where they took the truck back to Tesla to get repaired, lol, Tesla knew.

 

[OutlawJoseyWales]

Nope.

What happened was he ramped the **** out of it and drove over concrete tubes (big ones). The truck came off and landed square on a concrete from more than a meter up which broke the frame. They THEN tried to tow with it and it "broke".

He also had it up against an F150 doing "the same" things, but not really. The video was biased from the start, he went out of his way to **** the Cybertruck. Unfortunately, all anyone sees is "Cybertruck frames are snapping".

Did you watch the follow up video.

He dropped the F150 about 22 times and worse than what was done to the Cybertruck and nothing, because it's steel.
He also received a letter where a guy's trailer snapped the same way after going through a pothole. Cyberkak not Cybertruck.

I didn't realise the chassis on the truck is aluminium, really the wrong material to mount a tow hitch to.
Steel is ductile and will bend under overload whereas aluminium will crack, which is why the F150 hitch was virtually indestructible even after significantly more destructive loads. Tow bars take some hectic abuse including being driven into walls and other way out loads, I can see Tesla may have a problem on their hands, very difficult to remedy the design or repair damaged vehicles.

Not following your account around all day...otherwise the complaints probably would have been numerous.
