Cybertruck loading/ hauling 1800lbs+ of Drywall! 

I was going to buy a Cybertruck for this very reason but then realized it was only 50 bucks to rent the F250 flatbed from HD for my drywall runs.

34 sheets of drywall. Impressive. I'm pretty sure that bottom sheet was destroyed. The guy had the tilt too high on the forklift.

Finally! Practical use cases demonstrated. Nice. More please.

THIS is the type of cyber truck video ive been waiting for. Thank you!!

This is what I needed to see, I want to see more Home Depot and Lowes trips. This is how I will be using my CT.

Wow, that air suspension coming in clutch, and the truck looks good while hauling that.

If a tradesperson ever turns up with a Cybertuck (social media truck) they have lost the job.

1800 Ibs is crazy. This is what I like to see the Cybertruck doing. Thanks for the video!

"yeah, can i get half a pallet of sheetrock, and can you make sure you send a nice fracture right down the middle of the pile.... Also can you kinda pierce the bottom with the forks a bit too? I. Going for a rustic look on my walls " 😂

Nice to see it doing work! Would have been good to get a shot of it driving with it too.

Impressive considering the a lot of the load initially was taken up by just the gate! Elon will be proud.

Interesting to see a cybertruck finally used for truck things.

Stumbled across this video while walking through RU-vid for content on cyber truck. Thank you for sharing this. This is one of the things on my personal list that I wanted to see done with the cyber truck hauling all decent load in the box as well as towing. This was on my list, and this definitely covers what I wanted to see for something being hauled in the box👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍 thanks again next thing on my list is is to see them Hall some round bales and use it on a farm

Getting it loaded and making it home are two entirely different things......

Cool to see cybertruck being used as a truck, I don’t think that will be very common, but I appreciate it. Waiting mine to do the same 😅

Finally a real Cybertruck channel I’ll be following. The rest all cares about themselves and how they like to wrap their truck etc… thanks for sharing this video. I’ll be following your channel .

That bottom sheet is destroyed for sure

So brave letting the HD evening crew put 34 sheets in your cybertruck! They did a pretty good job though all things considered. 👍🏻

Wow , that is so impressive, I thought truck was gonna do wheelie with that much load in the back. Great Tesla

well done sir. masterful forklifting!

There are a lot of safety issues that would get us fired at our Home depot store.

Forklift skills need a bit of work, but that’s a real life test for sure. I would not have had the courage to let someone else load my brand new truck like that.

I love my Aussie drop side tray. No rooting around with trolleys or worrying about hitting anything. Forklift, straight up to the side...job's done. There is an untapped market in the US for the types of utes that we use over here.

Good video. Thanks for posting!!

Nice! When you want to unload, just back up to where you want it dropped off, put it in drag strip mode and accelerate away and it will unload itself! 🤣

Seeing that little roll around table hold it was far more impressive than seeing the truck hold it.

For cargo loads, nothing better as a flat bed with side panels. Easier to load and unload. As more affordable to repair if damaged.

Cool video! That was really neat to see!

I wonder if it is better for the air suspension to inflate / rise before the load and not after. It seems the extra load would cause unnecessary stress on the compressor.

That's amazing! Only half of the load is hanging out. Great work truck.

we've had 2 Tesla truck not drive away with loads over 1500 lbs at our store. A motor locked up on one and another tesla the door would pop open and the truck would not move after that. Both took special tow trucks to move them from the lot.

It'd be awesome to know what kinda range you got. I know that weight isn't something you'd haul regularly but that would be a cool stat to have

Isn't the payload the weight of the contents in the bed + the passengers in the cab? What was the total weight available (specifically stated on the vehicle as configured NOT what is stated on the website)??

use of brake lights after load is very nice edition. Engineering top notch

I pick up quite a few loads like this, the trick is to get a piece of sacrificial osb/plywood on the bottom. I have a 46" by 8' skid I bring to go on top of that. It makes it way easier for the yard guy.

this is the kind of content I wanna see ..not "oh hey look at my new wrap and new wheels" content..so over it. I wanna see it put to WORK!

Great stuff

Very good video to see. All the comments about saying you should have towed, and why do that, etc. make me wonder what else a truck is used for? This is exactly what I would do with mine too. Thank you for sharing. Question, do you feel the compressor REALLY struggled? I can tell it did but I am wondering how it sounded. Heck, now I want to know how many psi those bags operate under with this weight?

The sound of the orange dolly before it came into frame made my heart leap a couple of beats - thought the forklift knocked the tailgate off the truck

If that is 4x8 5/8 fireguard it is 70lbs a sheet, over 2,400 lbs loaded in there. When I load it in trucks I tear the papers off and float them in one at a time. It sucks having to pull them out in doubles.

This is the first construction use i have seen with the cybertruck

I’m more impressed with the skills and dedication the Home Depot employees have rather than the truck itself.

Great taste in music 👌

I'm wondering if it would have been better, to have the suspension max out before installing that load?

question how was the drive back how far did you go with this load ?

Now this is where I love an 8 foot bed. no need to tie down, it fits right in there with the tailgate up.

Tailgate looks like it is bending down further than it is supposed to. Might be better to put an extra packer under the load to distribute the weight more evenly. Like someone else in the comments said. I would load one sheet at a time for safety and avoiding damage. At one point I wondered if the whole pack of sheets might snap in the middle.

Wow, you're using a truck to do something that trucks can do!

I hope Home Depot corporate doesn't get wind of this video. We are now expressly forbidden to load drywall this way. Has to be hand loaded. Cool video though.

watching that drywall being loaded was like watching an event at the special olyimpics!!! HAHAHAHA

When a load is pushed in like that, it puts a lot of strain on the drive drain. For ICE trucks, I start the truck, put it in neutral, and apply the brakes. If you leave it in park, the transmission shear pin can break if you have lousy emergency brakes. Not sure about the electrical drive train, but I would get in and apply the brakes as well. My F350 dually has a payload of 7,100 lbs., drives real nice with about 4,000 lbs in the back. Cheers.

its still only 1800lbs. Even my 4cyl transit van (basically a focus with a small van back end) is rated for 1500lbs. The cybertruck is rated for 2500lbs. You could throw a few bags of concrete in there and all your tools in the back seat and it will still be fine. Since brakes dont wear as much and it doesnt have a transmission, compared to a normal truck even if you have to work on suspension in the future id say this of work puts less wear on the Tesla

Sure makes one realize just how small the bed is with that much sticking out the back… Thanks for the vid!

I liked the fork lift. First one if that type I've seen. Only good for smooth floors. Not surprised at CT.

I would worry about lack of proper tie downs . If i had a truck for work i would like tie downs on the outside of the truck bed . Like the ild Datsun 720 or Nissan D21 . Where did all the external tie downs go ?

Would it be better to extend the suspension fully and then load the bed and adjust the height lower, to go easy on the air compressor?

Quicker loading them by hand!!

Wow, the truck just sat there doing nothing like a boss. Totally worth the $100,000 to make you look ridiculous on the road. When you are driving and you see people whipping out their phones to take a pic realize this, they aren’t doing it cause they think you look cool. 😂

Prototype CyberTruck had automatic self leveling suspension. So it will level itself if a heavy load is in the bed. Maybe it comes through a software update.

Nice to see example of doing real work but also shows that for big jobs, unless you live in the middle of nowhere, its just as well to have it delivered to your job site.

how much more regen did you get with 1800 more lbs added to the weight of the vehicle?

Actual video: Somebody puts a bunch of drywall in the bed of a Cybertruck Nowhere in this video is anybody 'hauling' it.

Looks amazing

Thats impressive.

I would like to see it in motion. You know hauling.

👍🏾😎 Truck doing truck things

Is the drywall all the way forward? I know it's only a 6' bed, but it seems like it's also a full foot from the front of the bed.

Good video, congrats on getting your truck. When did you place your order?

Look at the towing test, only 160 miles range on flat ground with only 6000lbs. A model T can beat it lol.

Finally, somebody proves it’s a pickup truck! Nice!

So one issue I see is with the tail gate down you won't have any rear lights being there integrated into tailgate?

How did it drive with that amount of weight?

*These boys are not exactly the brightest tool in the shed, putting a board down under the center like that without side support could have cracked the whole drywall load down the center.*

Wow, first time loading drywall into ANY truck?

I put that in my 1 ton van no problem and close the doors so that the sheets don't get ruined on the way to the job when it starts raining, oh and I can fit 12 foot sheets with the doors closed.

Nice ! Why not lift it before you put the load in ?

I don't like how they supported the end of the stack with a single bar instead of three - 1 where it was and 1 on the outside of each fork before the forklift backed away.

If no one slaps it, saying, "that ain't goin anywhere", is it really loaded correctly?

Does the truck change the shock damping based upon hauled weight? Or an adaptive mode?

can we appreciate the guys that did the loading here

Is there a video on the cybertruck actually driving with that load?

Should've added a tarp on the bed. It would have slid the dry wall easier and protect the liner.

Nice, how much less of range was after loading up?

Id brought a trailer but I gotta say you are willing to use it and thats great!! Id be nervous whole time on a 100k vehicle!

Im really curious how the handling felt driving it home, having that much weight added changes the driving characteristics of any truck. (I drive an extended bed, crew cab F-350 dully, you can tell when the back is loaded.

😂 it’s crazy how people think this truck is not a highly capable truck. It was designed by the best engineers on the planet. Glad to see content like this so people can see for themselves. This is one hell of a truck.

Impressive

Official truck of Home Depot ❤

Would love to see the suspension level back up.

My goodness! The compressor is a beast too. Lets give that a round of applause too. Do you feel the weight when you drive 45mph? 70mph?

I mean at the end of the day, it's still just a truck. It looks different and has covers on the side of the bed, but it's still a truck.

Wow video evidence of a voided warranty. 👏

Probably it something you’ll see most CT drivers doing.

That doesn't look like a very well-balanced load to me. Notice at 3:50 that approximately 3/4+ of the load is behind the rear axle. Is there still enough weight on the front axle to provide sufficient steering control on the front wheels? I thought that the bed length was just over 6-1/2' with the tailgate closed. Assuming those are 4'x8' sheets, it looks like the bed length is 6-1/2' with the tailgate down, because the sheetrock is extending over the end of the tailgate approximately 1-1/2'.

I remember my first day on a forklift.

Sketchy as hell😂. I would load em 1 by 1😂. Thanks for posting.

Looks ok. But illustrates why I don't want a pickup. I haul construction material occasionally, and owning a truck would be handy, but having the load hang off the back like that freaks me out. And you can see how much trouble they had getting the drywall loaded because of the bed. If I get the stuff delivered on a flatbed or a cube van, it's easy to load and unload without damage. Nothing hangs off the back. So as long I only need to haul stuff occasionally, I'll stick with a car and get things delivered. If I start needing to haul stuff regularly, I'll invest in a small flatbed.

Thanks for this video. I'm now cancelling my CT reservation.

Should have put three full-length 4 x 4 Runners underneath the drywall it would reduce weight on the tailgate and do less damage to that bottom sheet

Finally using the TRUCK for something other than flexing 💪🏾👀
