@@randyhome1544And petrol and diesel cars never catch fire right🤣? If you want the facts per 100k evs and 100k petrol cars, EVs are over 10x less likely to catch fire on average. This is per billion miles driven and newer petrol/diesel cars.
I’ve never heard of a ICE car explode when it’s just filling up, parked in a Garage or when it floods. You need to admit batterys are more explosive or at least in experimental for EV scale. A bunch of F150 lighting just burst into flames because of a error. Or floods that cause a short circuit. Even when ICE catch fire then don’t get as hot, hard to put out or toxic as EV fires.
Well his comment on the track, he missed that it was a go cart track. Where this would be awesome is driving in a parking lot, parking garage or back roads having that excellent turning radius.
In another video he talked about running the CT and the go kart track. He pushed it so hard he had the brakes smoking. Was very complimentary of how it handled it.
@@danharold3087he was also very complimentary of the braking system. Of which he said he didn’t know of another truck that could have handled the torturous braking he was doing it on the track. Also, he raced the go cart on a go cart track, not an actually track. The guy who owned the go cart track said there was no way the cybertruck would be able to go through the go cart track without doing 20 point turns. The CT steer by wire didn’t have any a single multipoint turn. Amazing.

The best thing to do after watching what the CyberUte can do in the wild is watch Sandy Munro touring the production line. This vehicle is Gen 1. The already installed production machinery can with experience make any shape enough customers demand. The underpinnings are super versatile, look closely at the castings and how they relate to vehicle rigidity, all the issues that are obviously wrong about skateboard platforms have been bypassed, your shock towers are properly rigid.

Having raced karts for more than ten years I can promise you that was complete garbage smoke and mirrors. The guy driving the kart wasn't even trying. He could have passed easily.
I hated it but after seeing one in person… it looks damn good in person. Also having the fastest truck from factory helps too. People hate it cause the way it looks but the put a ton of tech in it that actually makes it bad ass
The reason it looks that way is due to the material. 300 series stainless steel that thick and hardened is impossible to stamp(curve). You sacrifice curves but gain strength and a truck that never rusts and as a work truck I think its a good move.
300 series Stainless work hardens causing difficulty when legacy Automotive processes are utilised. Look closely how door inners are formedand the total door structure is combined .Expect to see this machinery further utilised. Already the skin thickness of the doors is down from 3mm to a more usable 1.8mm. Expect further weight reduction coupled with increased intrusion protection. Somebody had to do this job, 75 year old designs actually need updating.
No rust on the frame either as it is cast aluminum alloy. It will eventually “corrode” over but won’t rust through which is a big deal in the rust belt.
And the battery cells themselves, just the product of seven years of work at Tesla and decades of work at another company that Tesla bought. VAG balked at trying to make their own battery cells, saying that they would not be able to equal the battery cell companies. Tesla looked and said, oh, we can do a lot better than that…

Brit here, a 59-year-old petrol-head. Pick-ups aren't a thin in the UK, at all, our roads are too small, and I have never wanted one...until I saw the CYBT. Its frigging awesome. Think about this: WHY would TESLA, of all companies, make a pick-up truck that looks exactly the same as your grandfather's truck from frigging 80 years ago?!! I have no need for a pick-up.... but I want the CYBT...because IT LOOKS LIKE THE FUTURE! Merry Christmas, have a great 2024.
The bitter truth is that in order for competitors to produce a truck that can match or exceed Cybertruck’s toughness, speed, acceleration, agility, comfort, bed capacity, … you name it … they will have to copy it. Its appearance is dictated by its function.
The problem also is that it will take years to copy Tesla because the factory is so dramatically different - by the time the competition can duplicate the CT without taking a severe loss, Tesla will be on to some other break through product. Right now these factories are turning out crazy trucks, but in 18 mos when they start building cars the same way, at a fraction of the cost of the competitors, those new customers will NOT care that much that those vehicles look like a door stops, when they zooming around in super-cheap, low maintenance vehicles, that you charge for pennies in your garage like an smart phone.
sadly they lied about the quarter mile, some geoguesser nerd figured out what track it is and it is an 1/8th mile track. and it is the manual base model porsche, which is about 500hp difference. still impressive but not quite as impressive as an quarter mile
I'd love to own a Cybertruck. You can't mold the stainless steel body panels. They have to be angular. I still think it looks great, plus it's bullet proof. 😊
Forget bullet proof it is shopping cart proof, and branches and tree limb proof, more importantly when the rear seat is raised the space behind the from seat is perfect for my 2 big dogs.
No not really it will stop a 9mm but that's it and they only use a soft lead bullet to test it a penetrator 9mm could possibly make it through. If you don't know much about ammo types 9mm is pretty weak it is the standard for most police departments but it's definitely not very powerful.
It's designed like a sledgehammer, only tougher. Regular trucks are now officially for people who don't actually use their truck, and just want something to look pretty that they spend the weekend waxing and buffing. If you actually want a truck to use - get one clad in literally bullet proof, unpainted, unchippable, undentable, rust-proof stainless steel.
0:42 The cyber truck is actually extremely aerodynamic, it has a drag coefficient of only .34. A typical pickup ranges between .46 and .49. That puts the Cyber truck in the range of a typical sedan.
Plenty, not that it makes any sense to drag race a truck. The most passes i've ever gotten in a night is 15. That's probably about 30% of the battery life, and they don't slow down much at all until 30% and under, so if you got to the track at 90% you'd be able to hot lap it all night.
I wanna see the semi next . The truck is good for California but what's it gonna do in the states with colder weather. I'd also like to see this cyber truck in the mud
It will lose some range in colder weather. But the 17.44” of true ground clearance will be great in the snow, or mud or whatever else you got, and the super fast traction detection will be great on ice too. If you somehow end up in a ditch anyway, Cybertruck pretty likely to be able to just drive out of it. If not, you can run the heat and stay comfy for days if needed.
Westen you crack me up every video😅 But I have to say, what are people looking at when they see this truck? Its hideous, they liking it because they think they should be? Well.. Designed by a 4 year old. I think it must be like the emporers new clothes
I see a brick which can be abused over and over again and not need to be taken in to a body shop every few years to keep my company trucks nice. For sure not the prettiest thing
I see a tool. It's a truss, a triangle, the strongest form in nature, used in bridges and cranes and stuff. Plated with stainless that you can literally beat on all day with a sledgehammer and barely scuff it, and no paint to chip and no rust to worry about. I look at it the same way I would look at a hammer. It's just brutally and unapologetically all business. And I like that. I don't want a truck I have to baby and coddle and take up two parking spaces because I'm so worried somebody might ding it. Regular trucks are now officially for people who don't actually use their truck for anything serious.
@@Blueee51... or use the camera view that's always right there and has a wider field of view than any rear view mirror. I'm quite happy with that. I already pretty much exclusively use the backup camera in my current car.
Perfect city boy vehicle, can't haul shit but groceries. I'd like to see the 700 mile drive test with a trailer, straight through with nothing more then a ten minute fuel stop.
I'm going to need more than a 10 minute stop if I'm traveling 700 miles. Depending on the weight of the trailer it will probably take three 15 minute stops.
It’s very impressive. But it’s main consumer base will the ones who need a 1500 to go to Walmart. ICE vehicles are just better in weight, hotshot where you need to refuel quickly and other such applications.
"for an aluminium cynder block, it looks pretty cool!" 😂 but yes, I agree, it looks cool in person. even though it's such a simple design, props to the designer tho, easiest design they ever made for what they are paid for 😂
I personally don't like the look and imagine if it gets damaged, the cost to repair. I'm not an ev fan either.... so it has nothing going for me. And I'm with you, the whole point of a truck is a bed you can use.
I think it's ugly too. Door stopper shapped and a box that'll hold nothing. It's about on the same level as the Japanese Kei trucks. It might do well as a estuarant delivery vehicle though. Small loads, around town only, and if it's several pizzas, you apparantly CAN tow a trailer. There's obviously a reason they didn't make it a 3/4 ton. other than it burning up in the driveway.
Westen is the kind of person I dont care what he’s doing if he makes a video about it I’m gonna watch just because I like the vibes he puts off, he could literally make a video of him playing badminton and I’d click cause I know it’s gonna be hilarious
I really didn't like the rounded look of modern pickups when they first changed them from the squarebody style trucks, but they sorta grew on me after 10 years or so. I am sure the angular styles will make the rounded ones look like PT Cruisers after a while.
Most people, myself included, don't like the styling. However, what always exited me is the technology it was going to come in it. The most exciting being the first Tesla 800v architecture with Tesla superior technology for super fast charging (on V4 Superchargers) on their 99.98% reliability network.
Issues... standing at side, liftover nearly impossible (getting tools or cargo out) The bed and cab being one unit means fixing something like low speed impact is going to cost a lot to fix Steering input lag from drive by wire Massive windshield with huge single wiper that doesn't clear entire windshield That drag race shown against porsche was a suboptimal porsche driven by tesla driver and only showed 1/8th mi to take advantage of superior torque Still, it's gonna sell like hotcakes because nobody thinks thinks through and its new+different I agree about round steering wheel and wanting a gauge package. But round wheel isn't a huge deal because steer by wire means you never turn the wheel over fully
yeah, trucks have looked the same because it works, if it ain't broke...well the cyber truck is still the same really, they just changed the shape, cab in front, bed in back, they just made it a wedge. the corvair pickup is more different than the cybertruck with the rampside bed and rear engine. I'm not surprised the hummer lost it weighs 3,000 lbs more. but it looks way better. only thing I like about the cybertruck is that it's stainless steel. it will look the same 20 years from now, no rust.

The tractor pull hack was the instant torque. The Cybertruck gets a jump before the wieght moves forward.
The other EVs should have the same advantage.
@@fluitfluiten Depends how they drove the vehicles. We can assume Tesla employees drove all the vehicles.
Westen you crack me up every video😅 But I have to say, what are people looking at when they see this truck? Its hideous, they liking it because they think they should be? Well.. Designed by a 4 year old. I think it must be like the emporers new clothes
I see a brick which can be abused over and over again and not need to be taken in to a body shop every few years to keep my company trucks nice. For sure not the prettiest thing
I see a tool. It's a truss, a triangle, the strongest form in nature, used in bridges and cranes and stuff. Plated with stainless that you can literally beat on all day with a sledgehammer and barely scuff it, and no paint to chip and no rust to worry about. I look at it the same way I would look at a hammer. It's just brutally and unapologetically all business. And I like that. I don't want a truck I have to baby and coddle and take up two parking spaces because I'm so worried somebody might ding it. Regular trucks are now officially for people who don't actually use their truck for anything serious.
@@truhartwood3170 just gotta keep the back cover down at all times otherwise you cant see out of the back
@@Blueee51... or use the camera view that's always right there and has a wider field of view than any rear view mirror. I'm quite happy with that. I already pretty much exclusively use the backup camera in my current car.
Great video! Bored of the same old look in trucks. What worked for a hundred years was in need of some cool updates. What an impressive vehicle.
That's a good honest review!
Perfect city boy vehicle, can't haul shit but groceries. I'd like to see the 700 mile drive test with a trailer, straight through with nothing more then a ten minute fuel stop.
I'm going to need more than a 10 minute stop if I'm traveling 700 miles. Depending on the weight of the trailer it will probably take three 15 minute stops.
@linemanap It’s true but it’s still not 3 1 hours stops where you to back up to the charger.
Not a fan of the Cyber truck however, like Westen said, its ot some impressive performance numbers. Just won't catch me lining up to buy one
It’s very impressive. But it’s main consumer base will the ones who need a 1500 to go to Walmart. ICE vehicles are just better in weight, hotshot where you need to refuel quickly and other such applications.
A SECOND CHANNEL? have I been under a rock? 🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️ either way I’m glad it exists I love this guy 🤣
"for an aluminium cynder block, it looks pretty cool!" 😂
but yes, I agree, it looks cool in person. even though it's such a simple design, props to the designer tho, easiest design they ever made for what they are paid for 😂
I personally don't like the look and imagine if it gets damaged, the cost to repair. I'm not an ev fan either.... so it has nothing going for me. And I'm with you, the whole point of a truck is a bed you can use.
It’s made out of steel, it’s more tuff that all the trucks on the road
I think it's ugly too. Door stopper shapped and a box that'll hold nothing. It's about on the same level as the Japanese Kei trucks. It might do well as a estuarant delivery vehicle though. Small loads, around town only, and if it's several pizzas, you apparantly CAN tow a trailer. There's obviously a reason they didn't make it a 3/4 ton. other than it burning up in the driveway.
@@xfuture3762 GM and Ram are made of steel too... I guess it's good if you just need a truck to pick up groceries lol
@@gd1996 ok, I’m gonna go push a shopping cart full speed at the side of a GM and Ram truck and see what happens
@@xfuture3762 Yep that's what trucks were designed for, perfect!
Looking great bro!
Keep up the work!
Advantage to impact “the car has a body line” 😂😂😂😂
Westen is the kind of person I dont care what he’s doing if he makes a video about it I’m gonna watch just because I like the vibes he puts off, he could literally make a video of him playing badminton and I’d click cause I know it’s gonna be hilarious
merry Christmas to you from calif and a Happy New Year to you
love your post you seem like a cool guy, happy Christmas
Whistlin diesel Cody will definitely use as a ramp😂
Go-kart tracks are pretty tight turns for a vehicle, let alone a truck
I can't get enough of the Cybertruck crash test videos.
The test with the go kart is to show how tight the truck can turn
Great video thanks dude. The look isn’t for everyone but thank you for acknowledging how bad ass it functions. 🤙🏻
That aerodynamic brick has a better coefficient of drag than a Bugatti Chiron.
0.335 vs 0.35
A McLaren F1 is 0.32. So not bad!
The interesting thing about the CT is the fact that it is indeed a very efficient design, as far as aerodynamics go.
I really didn't like the rounded look of modern pickups when they first changed them from the squarebody style trucks, but they sorta grew on me after 10 years or so. I am sure the angular styles will make the rounded ones look like PT Cruisers after a while.
So many customizovble features available for the truuck already including. Tents😅 🎉
Most people, myself included, don't like the styling. However, what always exited me is the technology it was going to come in it. The most exciting being the first Tesla 800v architecture with Tesla superior technology for super fast charging (on V4 Superchargers) on their 99.98% reliability network.
you can take that off and fight zombies 😂😂
I'd love to see you test one of these things out
that's one slippery brick! Cybertruck's drag coefficient is 0.34. which is fantastic.
The trucks you like rip themselves apart. 😂
3 horsepower go cart 😂 I got a go cart that will eat most vehicles. Power to weight ratio is insane, it’s like driving an Indy car the G’s it pulls.
Lost my shit when he said "have you seen carrot" love the content westin 😂👏👍
Nice set up the backround is dope
Issues... standing at side, liftover nearly impossible (getting tools or cargo out)
The bed and cab being one unit means fixing something like low speed impact is going to cost a lot to fix
Steering input lag from drive by wire
Massive windshield with huge single wiper that doesn't clear entire windshield
That drag race shown against porsche was a suboptimal porsche driven by tesla driver and only showed 1/8th mi to take advantage of superior torque
Still, it's gonna sell like hotcakes because nobody thinks thinks through and its new+different
I agree about round steering wheel and wanting a gauge package. But round wheel isn't a huge deal because steer by wire means you never turn the wheel over fully
CT is good for the truck market. It pushes the industry to be better. It's faster, stronger, and sets a new standard for trucks
yeah, trucks have looked the same because it works, if it ain't broke...well the cyber truck is still the same really, they just changed the shape, cab in front, bed in back, they just made it a wedge. the corvair pickup is more different than the cybertruck with the rampside bed and rear engine. I'm not surprised the hummer lost it weighs 3,000 lbs more. but it looks way better. only thing I like about the cybertruck is that it's stainless steel. it will look the same 20 years from now, no rust.
I wouldn’t be surprised if the Cybertruck comes out with a five motor truck just to drop the competitor’s jaw.
Too freaking funny!
