Watch A Tesla Cybertruck’s Rear End Completely Tear Off In This Ridiculous F-150 Durability Battle

YouTuber WhistlinDiesel is extremely entertaining while also being — in some ways — insufferable (no disrespect). The channel is a guilty pleasure that I only occasional partake in, but this video showing the destruction of a Tesla Cybertruck is absolute gold. I cannot stop watching it, so I’m going to share it with you, dear reader. Watch as the Cybertruck’s rear gigacasting literally tears off the truck, which, it turns out, is literally bomb-proof.

My god this video. I know, I know; this guy does some really strange and over-the-top and nonscientific nonsense, but sometimes you just have to turn off your brain and allow entertainment to fill your mind with happy chemicals.

It’s OK to watch, just this once. Trust me, it’ll be worth it:

 

After struggling to figure out how to charge the Cybertruck, the host, Cody Detwiler, begins the test by taking both vehicles over a large stack of logs:

Both trucks manage the obstacle, though clearly the Cybertruck — with its big 35s and fully independent suspension — offers a significantly better ride. From there, WhistinDiesel and his team race the two trucks, and the electric Cybertruck unsurprisingly destroys the gas F-150.

After that, the two machines go over some big cement pipes — well, one of the trucks does. The Cybertruck manages to crawl over the top of the line of pipes, though it ends up high-centered before it’s able to drop off the end:

The F-150 comes to the rescue, yanking the Cybertruck off the obstacle, though the tail end of the stainless steel-skinned machine hits that last pipe pretty hard:

The F-150 is unable to crawl over top of the pipes (I bet with a bit of a run-up it’d have managed, but WhistlinDiesel just called it at this point):

The Cybertruck comes to the rescue, pulling the F-150 off the obstacle, though, then this happens:

After that, the crew of content creators straps “C-4” to both trucks, and the Cybertruck withstands it quite nicely! Check out what one pound of “C-4” does to its door:

And now compare that to the aluminum door of the F-150:

The rest of the video shows the Cybertruck’s numerous build quality issues, its steer-by-wire failure making it hard to tow the thing onto a trailer, and other problems, though it does ultimately demonstrate the truck’s superior off-road capability and the toughness of its body panels.
