There’s a story in the news right now about someone crashing into seven parked cars at the Dallas Stars parking lot but the part I’m interested in is how this somehow ripped a cybertruck in half?? Like clean in half??

The frame is super thin and flimsy cast aluminum. I saw a vid the other day where a guy put the weight of a slightly overloaded trailer on its trailer hook and it ripped the whole back end off

Significantly more durable

Makes me wonder how it’s managed to handle or tow the loads I’ve seen put on it ….

Under normal circumstances very little of the weight of a trailer rests on the hitch. But sometimes, like going over a big bump out the crest of a steep hill, a lot more of that weight is suddenly resting on the hitch and the cybertruck is not correctly designed for those edge cases.
