[QUOTE="HFolb23, post: 4957965, member: 55674"] By design, the Tesla Cybertruck isn’t an option. My trailers hook in the bed, you can tow a gooseneck or 5th wheel trailer on a truck with angled bed sides like that because you can’t turn without the trailer hitting the bed. 14k pounds towing and 3500lbs of payload isn’t “great” by any standard, it’s pretty much on par with most half-ton or gas 3/4 ton trucks. I’ll keep my 1 Ton Ram and it’s Cummins diesel until there’s an HD EV that doesn’t cost 50% more to purchase. FWIW with all of the emissions BS the EPA has choked out Diesel engines with, I’m not opposed to an EV at all, but the offerings just aren’t there yet. I struggle with the idea of paying more money for a less capable vehicle. This is subjective statement and doesn’t mean anything for its performance, but to me the Cybertruck suffers from the same issue most Hybrids and EVs do, being that it’s just plain ugly. [/QUOTE]
