Jerry has one of the worst cases of TDS (Tesla Derangement Syndrome). In his video he applies 10,000 lbs of downward force directly on the hitch point before it breaks, and then says that it "is far too close to the 11,000 pound towing capacity. Yikes." He's a smart guy, he knows downward pressure at the hitch point (tongue weight) is a much different rating than towing capacity. Tongue weight is usually estimated at 10-15% of towing capacity, so 1100-1650 lbs. The cybertruck clearly exceeded expectations here. | ||||||||
