Cybertruck vs Raptor R: Ultimate Off-Road Duel 

It's more AMERICAN than most "American" manufacturers! So true!

@@sterlingswildwest actually it's more American made than the raptor.

“American Mircowave”😊

@@katieskinner67cooks the competition in seconds

…and also powered 100% by American energy. Raptor owners can’t say the same. Haha

Man, if you can find one for us, would do it in a heart beat!

@@sterlingswildwest what's your number?

@@sterlingswildwest what’s your location? If it’s closed by, I can bring my beast

@@sterlingswildwest Bring a cyberbeast and get a 3.8L whipple on the raptor r, if the raptor R loses. Build the engine do a midnight performance 10spd let it eat that 3.8L whipple and show the world why EV's are stagnant. You cant do anything with them lol. All for 1/4 of the price with the raptor R btw.

Right?

Yes! 🙌

😂😂

But you don't have a tesla

@@juliabingham4819 Sounds like you're a hick from some southern state

Thanks for the feedback!

You need to look up his story here on YT. He defected from Czechoslovakia in a hand made flying machine in the early 80s

@@sterlingswildwest This makes him even more bad-arse! Thanks for the story!

Wow! I gotta check this guy out. It looks like he’s living the dream.

They had off road on later in the video

Right?

It’s called “Kick the Dust” by Ryan Taubert. I’ve appreciated his talent for years!

@@George_Shonia appreciate the kind words! We have plans to do more with it off-road because that’s what it’s all about baby!

Awesome!

Exactly! 🙌🙌

Yoooo, thanks for the kind words Greg! The cybertruck is an absolute blast!

lol right?

Right?

LMAO no it didn't. The Raptor can easily do things Cybertruck can't imagine. Going fast in a straight line on a smooth surface is NOT offroading. Try driving them hard on some bumpy terrain and watch the Tesla fall apart.

Thank you! Yeah me to. It was a hard pill to swallow 😂

He is INEVITABLE!

Goonies!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

@@sterlingswildwest The plane guy look like Bruce Dern the army guy from The Burbs....

100% 😂

That’s awful!

You're correct. I think there was a little confusion when I said "this beast" in the middle of the video.

Thank you! We have more cybertruck vids coming. Most don’t realize that Tesla is all American and people can actually like both 🙌

Then it dies in 100 miles pulling a trailer. I saw one video the cyber truck died in 51 mile pulling 3000 pounds up the Rocky Mountain. Maybe one day it will go further, then I’d consider getting a ev truck.

​@@kennycyrus7731one CT or ask CTs? There's a difference

@@hui975 is the battery different in them? I really don’t know, they hauled half of the country with a ford, Chevy, CT, to see who got to the destination first. The ford and Chevy were close and the CT was a day behind for charging time. I’ve also seen where Frito Lay bought a fleet of Ev trucks and they can only use them for short runs, because of battery life. I think the batteries die fast under load, but are ok for daily commutes.

Thank you!

🙌

Now that would be amazing! Just wish there weren't so many limitations on range with the Cybertruck! But that would be an absolute blast!

Thank you so much!

The cybertruck is such a beast!

i was ABOUT to buy a cybertruck, had my reservation, got the email, was ready to make it happen, then i saw a R, not a regular raptor but a R in a showroom here in FL, i decided just to take it for a test drive, holy shitttttttt, its unreal, it commands respect and i would take it ANY day of the week over the cybertruck, i pulled up to a light the other day in my R next to a cybertruck and a little older lady was driving it, makes me laugh honestly, because that is the type of person driving those things, every time i see the cybertruck i like it less and less and love the R more and more....

It’s interesting! The cybertruck in extract mode sits several inches higher than the Raptor. Most Raptors have 35 inch tires and so does the cybertruck. The CT and Raptor weigh within 100 lbs of each other. It’s crazy how similar they are

Glad you enjoyed it!

That’s why I own both because I tow and an EV can’t tow over 100 miles without a charge where my gas hog F150 can tow for 500 miles without a refuel. I think both technologies are awesome! 🙌

Ha right?

Or just buy a 3.8L whipple with a midnight performance 10spd call it a day. The EV crowd will be shocked get it lol SHOCKED lol......

😂😂😂

Amen brother!

Thanks for the input!

Luckily the “tow ball” just happened to be connected directly to the “hitch point” And only the CT had a tow ball. The other truck had a recovery loop connected directly to the “hitch point” 🤷

Absolutely!

That’s a great compliment. Thanks man!

Thanks for the feedback!

lol it’s ok to like both. I own both and love things about both. The CT can win in a straight line but the raptor kills the CT in high speed off-road. It’s an apples to oranges comparison and it was fun seeing the feud between the all ICE and all EV crowds. 😂

You're thinking of the rear wheel drive only model. This is the dual motor foundation series!

Hey Mike, thanks for the support man! Love you guys!

All true except for the Raptor being ugly 😂

@@444thunderstr0ke the cybertruck’s launch in the quarter mile is unmatched!

​@@sterlingswildwestUpdated Rivian beats it in a drag race.

​​@@TroySavarybeats this model

@@alanrickett2537 For the 5 people in the world who think trucks are for drag racing, I guess that's great.

@@TroySavaryUnless the Rivian is doing better than 11.0@119mph no it won’t.

Haha, i've heard of that show, never seen it

Absolutely. Finally some who gets it! 🙌

It’s not. It’s the dual motor. It’s a beast all the same 🙌

100%

💯 R any day over that heap. Plus, wasn’t even the right off-roading. Let’s see these results in the Raptor’s TRUE environment. Not this groomed hard packed dirt stuff.

Yeah, blow that engine up! You know it's already built to the max it can handle and still make it 100,000 miles. Then it's time for a new engine and tranny. The Cybertruck will go at least 400,000 miles on the same drivetrain.

@@ZipZoomZip the Cybertruck can't seem to be delivered without big problems. Also you can get a Raptor R to 1300hp. And if you want more you can build it. Cybertruck is a pos and everyone is finding that out

@@Falcon-mc5fs I feel sorry for people who can't see how hard some people have tried to create the narrative that the Cybertruck is a POS. It's the exact opposite and the vast majority are delivered without any problems of consequence. The suspension is awesome, I've beat mine to hell and back over the last 4+ months and all that's happened is I've knocked 3 out of 4 of the lower wheel fairings off. Oh, and I got some fine pin-stripping from driving through mud and heavy brush, buffed it out two days ago with my random orbit polisher, looks brand new again. There is something to be said for a metal truck with no coatings on it. If you can't see how scared some people are of a truck this advanced, this capable, and this tough, that just means you are more gullible than your average person.

😂😂 right?

He is, without a doubt, our favorite person!

I actually thought Ivan was the actor Bruce Dern...

Thanks for the feedback!

Dang I wish I wanted to own anything GM. Thanks for watching man! 🙌

Right? We actually lost footage on 2 cameras on that day. That episode was actually shrunk by 10 minutes from the content we collected. Was extremely frustrating.

@@sterlingswildwest Ugh sorry to hear that. Yeah these are the tests I am just super curious about cause we know torque and speed who should win. I assume eventually the computer controlled suspension and motors are going to be able to outperform the Raptor in certain tests maybe not yet

He’s married to his work.

Thanks for the feedback!

Most of these reviewers don’t know how to Offroad. Cybertruck is definitely a capable truck. Over slow rock crawl it’ll take it. Raptor is a faster truck at high speed off road. I’d love to have both.

Thanks for the feedback! Stay tuned we are doing more off-road comparisons in future vids. Wish the CT was ours so we could have beat on it more 😂

Well there’s a lot of truth in that comment 😂

😂 love it

Heck yeah! 🙌

Also, check out the video we released this week where we put the cybertruck against the Raptor R in more off-road tests (suspension, articulation, climbing, handling etc)

Hard to go somewhere that doesn't have internet service when you have Starlink 🇺🇸

Yo, thanks so much for the kind words! We originally wanted to do the tug of war on pavement, but our buddy who owns the Cybertruck said he wanted to wait a while until we go all out, so hopefully soon!

Didn’t want to do that to Ivos brand new truck but watch the next episode to see why 😂

?

@@sterlingswildwest auto correct what spare tire rims if that. I don't want to pay 1k for a spare tire.

Correct, it's the foundation series dual motor cybertruck.

Did we say it was an Apples to Apples comparison?

Cheese grader is a new one! haha love it!

Right?

Nope just a regular beast but a beast all the same 😂

@@sterlingswildwest holy crap that’s impressive for just being the dual motor cyber truck 😂, wonder how the R would do against an EV lightning with Extended Range pack as that one is pretty similar to that cyber truck… I have one if you wanna do some testing 🤣

@@ericalvarez4066that would be awesome! 😎

Absolutely. Would have been nice to have access to it for a few more days.

@@sterlingswildwest great job though... Didn't mean to crap on you too hard. Thanks for your work!

Because there’s a quarter million in new trucks and that’s really hard on the running gear 😂

Right?! But put them together in the mile and things would be different!

@@sterlingswildwest it’s just wild to me how hyped up that raptor R is and to see it get destroyed like that blows me away. I thought for sure the “R” would’ve drug that refrigerator. Ford needs to try again.

@@sterlingswildwestWell that is only because the Cybertruck is limited to 114mph and the CyberBeast to 119mph which is its trap speed in the 1/4 mile. Without those limiters it would destroy the R.

@@ChosenMJ Well there is a hack for the S Plaid to get it past 217mph so there should be one for Cybertruck at some point...

@@sterlingswildwest Looking at the strip down of the Cyber the battery/floor looks tall enough to get 2 plaid battery packs in it... aka creating a 200kw Cybertruck - Plaid 2.0.... (fit Plaid motors = 200+ mph)

Thanks for the input!

What part is the silliest do you think?

@sterlingswildwest Nothing personal. Ever since the CT has been released, it's been silly, unreal extravaganza after another. Most "cake eaters" simply don't do crazy things with our everyday drivers. Why would you. Most "cake eaters" don't have extremely rich relatives or patron accounts. I'm not impressed with going worp speed. I've been there done that in old school vehicles, none that cost more than $1500. Did the side by side. "Let's see who's fastest" in two wheels, large number of CC's VS gears VS an astonishing lack of common sense. Sand and dirt can be abrasive in places that don't like that kind of thing. It can hide, you'll never find it till-. If I had a $120 k just laying around waiting for something to do (I don't, never will), and I was suffering from extreme brain damage and was hallucinating a lot and and found I had somehow bought a CT, chances are it would not ever do silly things, most likely after I recovered from the brain damage, it would be in my personal well guarded and alarmed museum.

Haha but easy on a quarter million dollars worth of trucks 🙌

torque

Both weigh the same!

😂

🙌🙌

Thanks for the feedback!

😂😂

😂😂

Exactly!

...so cheap plastic grilles, stacks of Ford recalls, and dent-easy panels are more practical? People have been gaslighted so long they can't cope when something comes out better.

Dents are just cosmetic. The Cybertruck doesn't have the frame or the suspension to do what a Raptor does. That cast aluminum unibody will be cracking in any serious Baja-style running. ​@@tmytco7664

@@tmytco7664it’s not better cause it doesn’t have the capability to tow anything for more than 100 miles. Wth you gonna do with a truck that can’t tow far? It’s pretty worthless for a truck.

@ndb_static_6850 that's bullshit. MOST people don't use the truck for hauling a trailer. But the horrible reliability, dents, and shitty gas mileage are always present.

Wrong

Raptor has it all!

Nothing compares to the RaptoR

Thanks for the feedback! 👍

Right? A little piece of me died inside 😂

You're right, it's the Foundation series
