I replaced my aging Toyota Tacoma with a Cybertruck. When it finally came out, I was a bit disappointed with the Cybertruck’s range stats. I didn’t realistically expect it to have the full 500 miles promised in 2017, but when I finally bought mine a couple of months ago, my range expectations were admittedly low, but the actual range I got was impressive. Add to that the truck has the largest bed of the available full sized electric trucks, plus drive by wire, rear wheel steering, 48 volt architecture, etc., I am pretty happy. My biggest gripe was the lack of a spare tire.
F250 diesel guy here for 35 years in construction. I sold my last truck and moved to the model S. I was so impressed with the S that I bought a Foundation Cyberbeast. I use it like a truck maxing it out with no problems ever. I just finished a loaded 2500 km road trip this week. Range anxiety is a thing of the past. Believe the Tesla estimated range on the screen and charge when it says to. Simple and fun to drive. A sports-car truck. It does more than my diesel and powers my cottage for 5 days to boot. I did pick up a nail but that was easily fixed roadside with a plug and pistol grip inflator.
If you’re really worried about it, Falken Wildpeaks are the GOAT for All Terrain tires with very very good performance in wet and snow
currently running 265/70/18 Falken Wildpeak AT3’s, will most likely be upgrading to 275/70/18 Toyo RT Trail tires, unless I can confirm that 285/70/18’s will fit with no rub.
I went with falken FK460 silent core (which is with ev foam). I like them so far and was about 1100 out the door (installed, balanced and tax and all).
I bought my miata with some pretty thrashed Falken Azeni RT615Ks on them and they grip pretty good, and even with the tread worn down to the wear bars they're not completely terrifying in the wet.
As someone who has a 04 2wd I can tell you best thing is a good set of tires. I run Falken Wildpeak AT4W's 265 65 17 we have decent snows in the winter I just lower the air pressure and go on my merry way.
My wildpeak AT4Ws look great and offer really good grip on and off road. Bad ass tires. Cons are that they’re really heavy so MPG dropped from 24 to 18 highway, and the ride of the tire is pretty bumpy and uncomfortable, from what I understand it’s bc they are load E rated tires, for heavier full-size trucks so the taco can’t really offer the weight to squish the tire down to a comfortable ride. The MPG dropped was expected and I’m okay with it, but the bumpy ride is a bit disappointing. I would buy load C rated tires next
The side walls on the Falken tires are very soft (like butter).
I currently have a set of Falken Rubitreks on my Landcruiser and coming from street tires, are just too rough for me on my commute.
