A Tesla Cybertruck's Frame Failed This 'Torture Test.' A Ford F-150 Passed

  • During a so-called "durability test" earlier this month, the rear subframe of a Tesla Cybertruck snapped off.
  • WhistlinDiesel, the YouTuber who did the initial destruction, is back with another video.
  • In it, he drops a gas-powered Ford F-150 on some concrete blocks to prove that the steel frame will hold.

Earlier this month, YouTuber WhistlinDiesel did one of his signature vehicle torture tests on a Tesla Cybertruck and a gas-powered Ford F-150. Long story short, the Cybertruck’s frame snapped at the rear after the tow hitch decided to leave the conversation (in fairness, Tesla’s pickup did better than the Ford in other tests.)
