Well, the GMC couldn’t pull an 8000 pound trailer more than 200 miles. And it sucked at it. The thing should never have been legal to sell. Piece of junk. Sold it the day the warranty was up.
Maybe it knew you hated it, so it hated you back!Reisender wrote:

BTW Time or YS, what happened to the 300,000 tow rating?
The difference is Ford and Toyota never stated that was the tow rating.
Neither did Tesla. The only tow rating numbers given by Tesla were max 14000 pounds. Elon tweeted something to the effect of 300,000 on twitter when someone asked about a tow capacity of 30,000 pounds. I think he was being way conservative at 300,000 pounds. Are you possibly getting those confused?

In a series of tweets on Tuesday night, Elon Musk provided a number of new details about the Tesla pickup truck. Among these is the massive electric vehicle’s insane towing capacity of up to 300,000 pounds, or 150 tons.

"So far this week, one Tesla has recorded a very unofficial Nürburgring 7:23 lap time, versus a recorded lap time of 7:42 by the Taycan Turbo.Sep 19, 2019"
So that was more than two months ago. Sorry really hard to keep up with real progress at Tesla.

I don’t think I’ve ever seen a 300,000 pound tow rating for the truck by anyone. I might be wrong. I did see where musk mentioned a 300,000 pound tow capacity. I would think it can tow at least 3 times that without difficulty. Heck, even a toyota has the capacity to tow the space shuttle. Ford pulled a million pound train. I would think the cybertruck has the capacity to do the same.
On edit. We may have to wait for real tow ratings on cybertruck but the only speculating on ratings is max 14000 pounds.
There is a video of the model x (that has a tow rating of around 5000 pounds) with the capacity to tow about 250,000 pounds out of a mine. I’m sure the cybertruck will be considerably more.- This reminds me of the Jonestown documentary I saw last night!
