Being a 40 year aviation guy the term for a rating like that is “draw bar pull” capacity.
Should edumacate the haters.:B
Maybe some example may help, I hope.
A single Toyota pick up pulled a Challenger shuttle when it's supposed to have a tow rating of only 7,000 to 5,000 lbs.
Haters can thank me later.- Being a 40 year aviation guy the term for a rating like that is “draw bar pull” capacity.

Perfect! You are correct on every point.
Nope. What he said was. “300,000”. When the other tweeter asked if it would have a 30,000 pound tow capacity. No tow ratings were ever mentioned. Again. The cybertruck will easily have the capacity to to 300,000 and probably closer to a million pounds....just like the electric ford did.
Max tow rating speculation specs of the Tesla cybertruck are listed on the website as 14000 pounds. Also totally feasible.

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.
Sorry fan boi but he did.
Fan boi. See where he is quoted "towing capacity"? See that? Now open the link. Go on. Open it.
Now read what "towing capacity" is:Curtmfg wrote:
What Is Towing Capacity?
Towing capacity is the maximum amount of weight your vehicle can tow when pulling a trailer. It is determined by the vehicle manufacturer and takes into account the GVWR, GAWR, GTW and more.
Now that we know what Tusk said and now that we know what "towing capacity" is, what happened to the 300,000 "towing capacity" Tusk said the cyber junk was going to have?
BTW court fans. "Pedo guy" (yep, Tusk said "pedo guy" too)is going to take Tusk to the cleaners for calling him a "pedo guy." Even though Tusk said he didn't "really mean the guy was a "pedo guy". LOL
This is going to be GREAT!
And none of it matters...- Still too early for me to even consider any EV/BEV Vehicle
Range, recharge time, availability of on the road charge stations, etc
Hours long line up waiting for charger
More Teslas on the Road Meant Hours-Long Supercharger Lines Over Thanksgiving - 31 pages of dreams about this new industry. So much rock and roll it is good to see such high interest.
In the next five years we are going to see many cars,trucks,bikes,scooters coming out that will establish a whole new way to move around,tow and explore with clean energy and a lot less pollution.
Get used to it....go for it!!!!! - Jeezus Peeps, let me guess, your eyes are brown? Cause you're pretty full of _____.
Only liars brag about how fast their cars are and won't even talk about them.
Your secret's safe with me buddy. You can admit you're a chronic full of __itter. - Nope. What he said was. “300,000”. When the other tweeter asked if it would have a 30,000 pound tow capacity.

Take nothing from Elon as a fact and you will live better.
Unfortunately that is Elon's Achilles heal. He has a big mouth. Because that is exactly what he said. Also the reason he is not the cairman and cost them millions in fines. You may decide which versions of facts you choose to believe from him but that does not absolve him from just spouting off to stroke his ego or prop up the stock.
Like there will be a semi and cybertruck? :W ??time2roll wrote:

Not me, I trade Tesla on Elon's words.
That's where I got the money to buy the Cybertruck.;)
