Of course they did. Over there you have a whole bunch of Elon bro’s that have tied their personality to a vehicle that quite frankly looks ugly AF. And now it appears it can’t even handle dirt roads.


BeardedManatee

I don't think a lot of people realize how fucking heavy tesla's cars are. My brother has a model S, which is just shy of 5,000lbs and he is constantly popping tires on potholes. I have to imagine the cyber truck is going to be near 7,000 lbs which ain't gonna be so great in mud without absolutely massive tires.


scubastefon

Seems like we don’t talk enough about how all these heavy EVs are going to impact road quality.


Hustletron

Or burn through tires. Tire pollution is a big problem.


ByteBitNibble

You should mention trucks in this. The number of people running a 5,000 pound truck with mud tires on their freeway commute in Houston or something is extremely high. Remember the top selling models of car in the US are: F-series Silverado RAM pickup Model Y (in roughly that order) The Model Y is the lightest of the set.


phatelectribe

The F series outsell all those other's put together and invariably they're the lighter weight trucks on that list and by volume. F150 base model is 500lbs less than the lightest Model Y.


coco_licius

Parking garages https://www.thedrive.com/news/heavy-evs-could-collapse-old-parking-garages-report


JustaDodo82

F150 is around 5000lbs+. If you already drive a big truck (and many do) I’d say it’s a wash weight wise. It is my understanding that a majority of road damage is from 18 wheelers. I’m happy to be corrected on that though.


phatelectribe

f150 weight is actually between 4000 and 5700 lbs at heaviest. It's actually one of the lightest you can buy and the lightest Model y is 4500lbs


20w261

>F150 is around 5000lbs+. If you already drive a big truck (and many do) I’d say it’s a wash weight wise. The F150 also rides on much larger and wider tires that do not put the load on a much smaller area as would a car. And nobody is going to be compounding that with 0 to 60 runs in 3.5 seconds, or racing around curves. And the F150 actually has a reason to weight that much - it's an extremely capable vehicle with a lot of uses. Re another comment about burning through tires, I'm up to almost 30,000 miles on my F150, and the original tires still have thousands more miles left in them before they need replacement. My 2019 with the 36 gallon tank has a highway range of over 800 miles. It's a dream highway cruising vehicle too.


ByteBitNibble

>wider tires that do not put the load on a much smaller area as would a car. You didn't look that up did you? Lower end Teslas ride on 8-8.5" width (the Model S is 10" and the heaviest Model Y Plaid is 10.5" wide). The stock F-150 wheel is 7.5" wide and the upgraded wheels are 8.5". You did say EVs, however. Teslas run lighter than other manufacturers EVs but all seem to run on wider tires. The Mach-E is heavier than anything Tesla makes, but still about the same as a F-150 and is on 8" width. Lucid is on 10" tires. Polestar on 8.5" width.


phatelectribe

What are you talking about? The model Y starts at 4552lbs and the MachE starts at 4394lbs. The Model X is over 5000lbs. In fact the only car that tesla make that's lighter than a MachE is the model3.


scubastefon

Agree, but if you’re moving from a mid-priced SUV or sedan to a Model 3 or Y, then you’re probably increasing weight by 75%, then multiply that across millions of cars, it’s an impact. I think most road damage is from vehicles that are relatively heavier, but that’s because up until now, passenger vehicles were relatively light in comparison.


Khomodo

Model 3 and BMW 3 weigh almost the same depending on trim, as does the Model S and BMW 7. F250 can weigh over 7k depending on configuration. Fear mongering over EV weight is pointless.


scubastefon

It’s not fear mongering, it is “additional considerations”. I’m not saying we should continue to choke the planet on fossil fuels bc of it.


Khomodo

Since the weight between comparable vehicles is the same it can't be an "additional consideration", there is littereally nothing to consider.


evemeatay

What road quality?


DEADB33F

Faster charging, vastly more charging points, and lower range EVs could be a solution to that. I'm in the UK and 100 mile range would be plenty for 99% of people 99% of the time.


mar4c

Incidentally, they’re low weight for the segment. Y is lighter than ID4/Mache for example. But that doesn’t mean they aren’t heavy as fuck 😂


BeardedManatee

Hmm, yes, I know some of those words. Lol. ID4/Mache?? I know a model S weighs basically the same as a full size F-150. Is cyber truck in the category of the large diesel trucks?


pantstofry

Volkswagen ID.4 and Ford Mustang Mach-E. Also I’d expect the CT to weight at least 6500 if not 7000+. The Hummer EV is 9000lbs


BeardedManatee

9000, wowza.


20w261

Wait til some schmuck in his big 9000 lb toy parks on his friend's asphalt driveway on a hot day, and leaves craters in the surface. Turning the steering while standing still will do an even better job of damage.


Seattle2017

7k for the rivian r1t. Drives incredibly well. Let's see how the ct suspension works.


ByteBitNibble

That's lighter than almost any modern pickup. The problem is that the performance Tesla ships with extremely low profile tires on 21" wheels. Those are prone to popping on any car, but the extra weight doesn't help. The more "standard" 19" wheels on a Model S doesn't have that problem at all (any more than an F-150 is "constantly popping tires")


20w261

GM's new electric Hummer weighs 9000 lbs. NINE THOUSAND POUNDS! I can't wait for the You Tube videos of them dying many miles out in the desert or better yet, getting all of those 9000 pounds stuck in a mud bog or sand dune and nobody can get the goddamn thing out! The new Hummer is as impractical as the old one - no, worse - a useless 'look at me' toy for people with more money than common sense. 9000 lbs!


Gavrilian

Iirc Thunderf00t estimated it to be 14k. There was a video put out that said a loaded truck was 20,000lbs. He found the load to be about 5,000lbs or something like that. Or maybe the loaded truck was 15,000 so the truck was 10? It’s been a while, and I have to go to bed. I just remember the truck weighing like two or three times the load it was carrying and being ridiculously heavy. Edit: the cyber truck in Thunderf00t’s video was for the commercial/corporate… version(?). So my comment could be completely wrong for this version. I’ll post a link when I wake up. Or more likely when someone reminds me.


[deleted]

All trucks are heavy. I've sunk a lot of trucks in mud.


that_motorcycle_guy

I wonder wait how heavier the CT is compared to the lightning. 3mm stainless aint light VS aluminium.


20w261

I don't know the Lightning's weight but the F150's aluminum body saves 700 lbs compared to the prior steel body version of the F150, so it's a meaningful improvement. I believe some carmakers, one being Ford, made stainless steel prototype / experimental versions of a few cars back in the 30's or 40's, and while I am sure there are many grades / thicknesses of stainless, the cars that were made from what they used then were outrageously heavier than their regular steel production models.


Phameous

Be honest.. you made that up. I have had a Tesla Model S since 2017 and never had a flat. Tires cannot handle 4500lb vehicles now according to you? If you want to criticize something at least be honest. The only problems with Tesla from my standpoint are long service waits for any type of service and bad off-the-line QC. If you do not like the interior or exterior, do not buy one. If you do not appreciate the safety ratings and the reduced likelihood of a fire, a Tesla may not be for you.. If you want to make up stories about flat tires to get internet points, a Tesla may not be for you. Some people's kids.


ByteBitNibble

Eh. It's the performance tires from Tesla. The 21" ultra-low profile tires that's stock on performance models do tend to pop. But that's not a lot different from any car with ultra-low profile tires. I'm guessing you have 19" wheels, which won't pop like that.

phatelectribe

It’s funny because it was super brain Elon driving.


WhitePantherXP

People, every vehicle gets stuck. I don't care if you're locked front and rear with portal axles and a 30" clearance to the diff. I'm glad these pics are out though in case these Tesla dweebs thought it was going to be super capable because the real takeaway is that a vehicle twice as heavy is nearly half as capable offroad. Nearly impossible and why heavyweight vehicles are an absolutely rarity on the trail. I have a shockingly better capability offroad in my "lightweight" F150 (even before the 37" mud grapplers) than I do in my 6.4L Superduty, this thing feels twice as heavy and I just sink in everything. I have to be very careful on anything wet offroad and be conscious to carry nearly twice the momentum. Anyway, the 5800lb weight of my F150 is the heaviest vehicle I'd ever consider taking offroad and it would be so much better if it went on a diet. You don't buy an electric vehicle at current weights for any kind of respectable offroading capability.


50thaevert

That doesn't mean anything other than this: Whoever was driving doesn't understand that in the mud, even with 4 wheel drive, momentum management is everything.


mrbuttsavage

I believe we saw Elon driving it for that event (which is rare, we never see Elon driving anything). I fully believe he doesn't understand mud and offroading (or trucks at all based on the Cybertruck).

Did it get stuck because of the mud, or because of something wrong with the truck itself?!? If it was just the mud, this could have happened to any vehicle. making this a dumb post. Now if it was because it was something up with the Cybertruck, like it ran out of battery power then this makes more sense.


Viperions

The vast majority of people know it could happen to any truck. We’re making fun of it because it’s supposed to be the ultimate badass truck that will get you through the apocalypse… And in one of the very few photos it’s ever been seen (as far as I know) in non urban conditions, it’s helplessly stuck and needs to be pulled out. And it’s years late.

robmapp

Even so, why is that an issue? It hasn't been officially released. It's still being worked on. This just seems like ppl who hate tesla or Elon grasping at anything.


defac_reddit

I mean... Yeah. But also Elon said this truck could compete at Baja, ie saying that bone stock it's going to be one of the most competent off-roaders on the planet. I understand there's a difference between getting across a mud hole and desert racing, but Elon just sets himself up to get dunked on constantly with this thing. It's just some basic schadenfreude to see one of the most publicly arrogant hype men on the planet fall flat, even if it's something as basic as getting his car stuck. In part because he's explicitly hyping this truck as a dominant off-road beast.


robmapp

The ceo of the company is hyping is product up. His product that is still in development gets stuck in the mud and that's cause for news. I get it, it's just Elon hate at this point.


defac_reddit

I mean yeah it is kinda news that a truck that's supposedly going to be able to drive 1000 miles off road across a desert can't handle dirt roads yet when it's supposedly going into production in the next few months.


Viperions

Out of curiousity so I don’t closely follow the car industry: Can you find a ceo of a major manufacturer that has also promised results to the same degree? Bonus points if the car is also vaporware while they’re making these claims. If it was a normal truck people wouldn’t care. But the “truck you want in the apocalypse” falling victim to the thing every other truck falls victim to is funny to me.


phatelectribe

It’s been a prototype for years though. And first time we’ve seen Elon driving it and get stuck.


robmapp

So something still a prototype and still being worked in gets stuck in the mud so we make a big deal over it. But other trucks that have been out for long periods of time, they get stuck in the mud and we don't give it any attention? My point is, why care over something trivial?
