I think that the designer of the Tesla cybertruck used the same old but proven 3D design software, as the inventor of the bullet bra.
Can be like : "Free bra with cybertruck purchase !"

I'm honestly surprised they aren't making codpieces like that and all the Alphabros be wearing them.
Actually though, I have a hunch that there's another source for the design. Eh, I don't even want to spend the time/energy getting a pic. Its KKK hoods.
No, sorry. I was responding to eager. You are right. I just watched it. I guessed wrong that that would be a separate youtube video.
But i have one question, why did they have to use the bulldozer with the Dodge ram pickup truck ?
They did not use the bulldozer to keep the front of the cybertruck down. Is the cybertruck that much heavier than a Dodge ram pickup truck ?
Like around 2000kg for a pickup truck i recall.
They explained they did use the forklift to hold the front of the Cybertruck down (they didn't jam the forks through the front, they put cables or something on the front axle to the forks below the truck). They had to forklift the Dodge over there because it didn't have an engine in it, which is why they held the front of it down by just punching the fork through the grille. They also explained that it had been in an accident and the hitch had already been bent some. And it still held stronger than the Cybertruck.
Being real, this isn't that big of a deal (they even say as much in the video). It was more to prove that the other guy's video where it happened wasn't a one off (which is what Tesla fanboys have done is just dismiss it as some outlier that happened because of the ridiculous abuse the guy put it through) and the reasons why it can be recreated in other ways. Basically showing that what they explain in the video is true (that it can happen multiple ways, and then showing such).
Actually they do explain the real issue at hand here, is that because it is the aluminum frame that is failing and not even the hitch, that every time you tow (I'd also wonder about hauling significant weight in the bed), you're stressing that, and aluminum will just get weaker over time as that stress compounds. Steel doesn't really suffer from that (at least in a meangingful way, although I'd take issue with his claim that steel would be as strong 30 years later as it was from day 1).
jerryRigEverything tests the tow weight limit of CT vs regular steel truck.
10k pounds fail point for CT. steel frame took 10k fine but they couldnt go heavier because the excavator started lifting up.
the fail point is the cast aluminum frame. they will either have to switch to steel or buff up the thickness so much that the benefit of casting might be negated. cast parts are probably fine for commuter cars but not towing.
I'm sorry but you must not live in America. If I want to tow a 36' single axle trailer with a Geo Metro, it is my right!
Most likely they do neither. Best thing they could do for towing is either offer specialized trailer (that can balance weight, reducing the stress point this video exposed, probably add battery and/or generator to offset the range loss from towing, maybe even small motors so you can maneuver it some without even needing a vehicle, would have saved the Cybertruck lost recently when launching a jetski).
I remember when the domestic brands tore Toyota to pieces when they used a c frame on the Tundra. I could see Tesla flipping it, doing steel frame and aluminum body. Do anodized aluminum for the luxury dudebros, but then going with maybe plastic even for work versions.
