Are Tesla Cybertruck Tires TRASH?
Some Cybertruck owners are complaining that their tires are wearing out quickly — like very, very quickly. One user reported that he’s nearing the end of his tread after just 6,000 miles of summer street and highway driving. The Cybertruck weighs nearly 7,000lbs / 3,000kg, so its tires are going to grind down faster than…

How to Make a YouTube Video in 1987
Decades before software like Premiere and iMovie made video editing cheap, easy, and accessible for everyone, the only option was chaining a conglomerate of vintage 80s technology – multiple camcorders or VCRs and a TV – to craft custom analog video. Then the Videonics system changed tech history forever. With professional-grade setups costing up to…

I Traveled 8,000 Miles For The Camera That Killed Polaroid
Nearly 50 years ago, the Polavision camera blended Polaroid’s revolutionary instant film with on-demand home video – and the result was a landmark advance in analog technology that would become a mystery of science and a winding international journey into vintage tech. Because now, generations after Edwin Land bet his half-century legacy of innovation and…

Uh yes, my 7500 lb diesel I’ve put over 50,000 on my all terrains and they are only at half their tread life. And yes my truck has plenty enough torque.

Tesla owner here. I get about 35,000 to 40,000 miles on a set of tires that should last 50,000. This was a known and expected issue because the vehicle is heavy and has an extreme amount of torque which can grind tires down faster. So while all Tesla’s do this, the Cybertruck seems to be extreme.
Zero chance I will buy a cybertruck. I’ve owned multiple Teslas (3/Y) and love them so for whoever is curious on build quality, reliability, user satisfaction I can say it’s pretty high. Though I will never buy another Tesla now that Elon is totally off the deep end.😂

@@joeleebristol yeah they’ve had problems. But in fairness every Tesla Model has for the first 6 months. Not defending it, just saying I’m sure the build quality will be fine in a little while. I still don’t want one though!

I promise the c-suite execs of other car companies hold views you’d find abhorrent as well, but are just quiet about them.

I don’t get the Elon comment though. It’s like saying “I’m not gonna buy Apple since the CEO is gay”. If the product is good, why bother looking at the CEO? You’re likely to not agree with many corporate heads all over the world, which would mean you’d have to stop using most of the tools and products you use everyday.

When you have over 600 horsepower (800 for the 3-motor variant) and a ~3 second 0-60, it’s inevitable regularly using all that acceleration power will destroy your tires.

It’s cause they weigh so much lol just buy a heavier load rated tire

Better rated tyres are available and cybertruck owners should be encouraged to upgrade. Not hard is it?

For godly sorrow worketh repentance to salvation not to be repented of: but the sorrow of the world worketh death. (2 Corinthians 7:10)
Let the wicked forsake his way, and the unrighteous man his thoughts: and let him return unto the LORD, and he will have mercy upon him; and to our God, for he will abundantly pardon. (Isaiah 55:7)
For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord. (Romans 6:23)
