Some more food for thought
The tug o war between Tesla and Ford 150 was not fair I admit.
Not only Tesla weights more it also has way MORE power aka Torque.
How much is unknown, however Ive seen EvWest vids with their race car BMW
Which uses Tesla drivetrain and baterys and it puts 4000 lbs of torque to the wheels,yes 4 THOUSAND
Id think Tesla truck has at least that maybe more,so even with bigest 4x4 and diesel Ford or anyone else has no chance to outpull Tesla
Will see

Tug of wars between trucks are just silly publicity stunts that prove nothing, although they could have at least put the Ford in 4WD. My AWD VW Golf wagon could beat an empty 2WD pickup in a tug of war as long as nothing broke. Put 2000 lbs in the bed of the pickup and the result is different even though HP and torque are the same. The winner is the truck with the most traction, as long as it has enough power to use it.
