But agree, cybertruck is a really silly purchase for numerous reasons. The only reason you'd buy it is to signal your support for Elon. It's a very bad vehicle.

The battery pack is by far heavier than the motors. In the r1 they are also positioned with the wheels (quad) or front/back (dual) so weight distribution is great.

If the slate has a single motor and is RWD then I would assume the weight might be biased toward the rear where the drive unit is powering the rear wheels. Either way the motor is relatively small compared to ICE trucks and that’s where you want the weight anyway for a RWD vehicle.

Am I mistaken?

(Not digging at you, I feel the same way you do. I just think it’s weird and amazing!)

Volume wise it’s of course Texas with Wyoming, Montana, and North Dakota having the largest ownership share.

Unpowered wheels become uni-directional skis, regardless of their ability to turn left and right.

I frequently think about this when weather gets bad! I already have AWB (all wheel braking?). Seems like AWD could make it too easy to get in a situation where my AWB isn’t sufficient to stop
