If you want other people to respect your opinions...respect ours. Its simple. You like to dig at people when they like things you don't like and try and gaslight others into believing that what they prefer is somehow strange and unusual. Its not...thats why I brought up the Ward's award. Lots of fans of the Ram's interior clearly since it won that award. You're not a fan...we know and we don't care.
found this: Cybertruck has a 9% better turning radius than an F-150.
Like we have said repeatedly, comparing 1/2 ton trucks and the Cybertruck really makes no sense because they are different buyers. Nobody who wants or needs the capabilities of a 1/2 ton truck is going to consider a Cybertruck because it lacks most of those capabilities. It has other areas where it excels, but those aren't areas those 1/2 ton truck buyers really care about.

Silverado EV is the only near term one that does an acceptable job of towing something heavy. They got ~250 miles of total range in a similar test towing a 6500 lb trailer. 232 miles travelled, 19 miles remaining range on the OBC that did seem to be adjusting for the lower efficiency. That compares quite favorably with 85 miles for the CT or 72 miles for the Lightning, and would be totally acceptable in most cases where towing is A thing your truck does, rather than THE thing it does.
Silverado EV has impressive towing range!! I forgot what speed they were traveling. Not bad nevertheless

Follow up to the orgInal debunk of the Tesla claim that cybertruck can beat a 911 while towing a 911.
an excellent video drilling deep into the physics, engineering and most of all math behind the Tesla claim, revisiting the hypothesis, theory and then instrumented results from the experiments.
TL;DR/TL/DW - Tesla was indeed bull****ting. Every advantage was given to the Tesla, and it was interesting to learn more about how Tesla cherry-picked pretty hard to make the bogus claim. Regardless, the original debunking stood up to both theoretical and practical validation. Gotta love math.

Turning radius is not something buyers of half ton pickups are worried about.

Is this the video explaining it wasn’t the 1/4 but instead the 1/8 mile?

show me where i've said others are not allowed to have opinions. ridiculous.
also ridiculous. i respect others have opinions and that they may well be different than mine. if i find an interior hideous yet you think it's awesome, that's just two opinions disagreeing. i havem't said you're "wrong".
and that's your m.o. - writing for the "we" to isolate someone you disagree with. you're a fan and impressed by those types of interiors - more power to you.
and no one said they are - again, false strawman.
agreed... and yet a load of this thread has been about ice traditional trucks and all their virtues... funny that.

. Personally, I don't really care. Doing high 12s while towing a 911 is in itself very impressive, even If they can't beat a 911 while towing one. Many companies are guilty of manipulation of the results of their products, so surprise surprise 🫢

Sure, on the one hand it's puffery. But on the other, it's still bull****. They didn't even do a 1/4 mile run. It was, quite simply, a lie. That said I mostly posted it as the engineering and math-driven analysis behind the debunk was interesting.

Puffery is bull**** by its very nature lol

It's "bearing false witness", no doubt about it.
Something that angers me.
I'd rather someone under promise and over deliver than bear false witness
>> The biggest cringe for me was expecting to see the welds on the trailer to tear apart on launch. So glad that didn't happen.
