My takeaway from that is that you shouldn't tow a properly-balanced 55 ton trailer with a Cybertruck. Or an improperly-balanced trailer that has the same 5.5 ton tongue weight.
I’ve seen more Model Ys with a trailer hitched behind it more times (once) than I have seen a Tesla truck pulling a trailer.
The owner of the Tesla truck is very similar to the owner of a Honda Ridgeline. They really don’t need a truck. They don’t own a tow ball hitch and the bed of the truck is used mostly for groceries and luggage.

My neighbor's F150 fits your Ridgeline usage description to the t.
Just because they don't use the capability doesn't mean it isn't there
We are not even commenting on that, we are only commenting on the fact that people buy stuff with capabilities they never use. Nobody "needs" a cyber truck, and most people I know that own Trucks (*insert brand here*) don't need a truck, they don't tow, they don't even use the bed. Not that I really care, people can buy what they want

We all pretty much have cars whose full capability we don’t use.

You mean like being able to tow 10,000 lbs? or being able to load 1 ton in our 'trunks?' Or double dually setup to support that massive Costco shopping spree. Sure we do

I drive around in a massive sedan by myself every day. You don’t need a Model Y, you have your Sienna for any hauling you would need. You could make do with a much smaller vehicle. My guess is you are alone in your M3 all the time. You could drive a very small subcompact car.
Your concern over what people drive is showing . People drive what they like, not what they need.

I'm not concerned at all what people drive, I was just testing out my theory that you have to have the last word. Theory confirmed 👍

I see the cyber truck more like a Cadillac Escalade EXT avalanche style pick up truck. or the Lincoln Blackwood More like a novelty, something you drive if you have a lot of money. I think the cyber truck is a really cool vehicle, however, I think if it was a body on frame style vehicle and if they weren’t so focussed on 2.2 seconds 0 60 at all of that stuff, it would make for a better truck
Ford 150 EV is better at doing truck stuff as the transition from a gas truck is seamless, as it’s the same thing….aside from the charging.
Kim Kardashian posting with the cyber truck. Anybody else love photography?
