    I’d live to see how a similarly outfitted Ford Lightning would do. The long wheelbases on both are going to be a problem, but at least Ford knows how to build a truck.

      Ford knows how to sell a truck. Musk just targeted the 99.99% of truck owners who will never do anything but help their brother in law move a couch once every 3 years, or tow some shitty boat.

      Driving the Rubicon is irrelevant to truck owners.

        The Cybertruck in this story was moderately modified, so I’d assume a Lightning to be similarly modified.

        The Rubicon is literally in my county, and I know people who were part of the group who rescued this guy; they knew he was a joke from the get-go.
