    Did you even watch the engineering explained video? Doesn’t seem like it.

    At 18:45 he reiterates that there ARE situations where the maximum towing load would be transferred to the hitch.

    While yes, it is a rare occurrence, it’s far from impossible to see 10,000lbs on the tongue when PROPERLY towing a load.

    Also, comparing a brand new cyber truck to a 20 year old rusty Dodge isn’t a fair comparison. If they wanted fair, they’d have used a brand new Dodge instead of trying to rig things in favor of the cyber truck.

      Engineering explained:

      Final question: should cybertruck customers be concerned about towing at capacity with a tesla cybertruck? To be honest - I don’t know.

      This was a junk test that meant nothing. EE is putting that politely. EE actually invokes real engineering.
