Me either.
I'm guessing they must be a heavy duty truck tire of some kind like a 10 ply on the one ton trucks.

Don't know the vehicle's weight but guessing 5k+ lbs because of the size plus batteries but just a guess.

OK, call me impressed! Beat a 911 towing a 911 LoL 🤣. Pricing not as bad as I thought it would be:

On the other hand, the top of the line F-150 Raptor is $130k, so the Cyber Truck is priced way below Ford's top of the line truck

Ok so the RWD model is essentially what was going to be the 39K cybertruck, the 79K one is broadly comparable to my Lightning spec wise, and the 99K one looks like an absolute monster. Very keen to drive one of these.

Please dear God don't let "range extender" be a gas or diesel one. I'm pretty disappointed in Cybertruck so far. I'm disappointed in price, range, charging speeds, aerodynamics, and now this range extender??? I will be so disappointed in Tesla as a company if this is gas-powered. I'm really hoping it's just more batteries that get stored in the sub-vault or something.
