The YouTuber attributes the flaw to the aluminum composite used in the Cybertruck's structure. In contrast, Ford's traditional truck frames, including the all-electric F-150 Lightning, use steel.
WhistlinDiesel then dropped a gas-powered Ford F-150 on concrete blocks to prove its steel frame's durability. The F-150's frame bent but did not break after 40 drops from 5 feet high. The Cybertruck, priced at $100,000, is rated to tow up to 11,000 pounds. However, the hitch snapping off raises safety concerns. The YouTuber claims another Cybertruck lost its tow hitch on the highway after hitting a bump. Attempts to get a response from Tesla were unsuccessful.
