Let me try to explain to the fan bois why an old truck like I own puts out many, many times more torque that the Cyber junk.
The truck I own puts out 650 ft/lbs at the crankshaft. That torque is fed to an Allison tranny with a 1st gear of 3.10 to 1 gear ratio.
Now that 650 ft/lbs of torque that is feed into the tranny comes out as 2,015 ft/lbs of torque.
But we are not done yet. Now fan bois, we need to feed that 2,015 ft/lbs of torque into the 3.75 rear end.
So, 2,015 ft/lbs go into the rear end and the tires see slightly over 7,500 ft/lbs of torque.
It has been reported that the Cyber junk will have 1,000 ft/lbs of torque. If true, my 12 YO truck will put out 7x's the amount of torque the Cyber junk will put out.
If I have time I will do some more math to show that lying Elon is FOS.
BTW, what happened to the Tusk 300,000 tow rating? LOL
