Вставка
- Опубліковано 18 кві 2024
- I finally tried towing with the Tesla Cybertruck. But I didn't just tow any trailer... I towed the future of trailers.. the all electric Pebble Flow! And.. I was the only person in the world to do this!
This thing is a game changer especially with electric cars because of the dual motors and a battery pack!!

I think a review from you is worthless. You claim to have zero experience or knowledge about trailers or campers. That's like watching a car review from someone that has never driven a car. Plus, you have the vibe of a marketing promoter / paid salesman. That said, you're perfect for the low grade brainless content of UA-cam / TikTok.
@obimk1104?
“Car… child safety… pedestrian avoidance”…?
This is a truck towing an electric RV.
Nothing about child safety or pedestrian avoidance - though Tesla’s are top notch at those things… got the highest scores ever on Euro NCAP widely considered the toughest and most complete assessment of modern vehicle safety tech.
Cybertruck will be just as safe to people inside it and out.
Tesla has AI that prevents pedal misapplication instances when people are near the car as in parking lots.
I’ve seen about a dozen videos where this feature has saved dozens of kids lives, or at least they’re not crippled.
So chances are the only “shit car” around is… yours? 🤷♂️
Banff is awesome. So is lake Louise and Jasper. Btw- I think u had a video on sleep masks. Which one do u recommend?. And have a great time
@@jeff1232 Manta Mask! still use it today. :) Yeah have to go to Banff
Typical asian tesla hypeboi
Burst out laughing when Stefan says, "Just go." 😂
Hahaha
2:02 “I have never hitched a trailer in my life! 😃”
💀☠️💀☠️💀
Thank you so much for towing the Pebble Flow with the Cybertruck. Our Cybertruck is still on order, and we were looking at the Lightship Electric Trailer, but you have changed our minds and we're preordering the Pebble Flow today. Even the interior decor is superior to the Lightship. The interior height is improved in the Pebble Flow, so that concern we had is gone now. We can't wait!
I saw the production model. They didn’t let me put it in the video.. it looks even cooler on the outside
Fools and their money are soon parted and you fit the fool. Surely you voted for joe. Fully lobotomized by your irrational fear of the element carbon to the point you buy this scam junk
Don’t buy the Cybertruck. You are making a big mistake. It’s already got a total recall a few months in, what else is wrong with it? Get your money back and at least wait until they fix all the bugs. If you don’t wrap it? You have to clean it nonstop. You can’t use a carwash with brushes if you don’t spend money on a wrap. The steel is rusting it’s low quality stainless. Big mistake, cancel and wait. Always a bad idea to buy a year one model of any car.
I think for the money you’d be way better off with a model X. You can still use it to tow a trailer minus the reduced range. But it’s a more practical vehicle and they are cool.
Or just buy a real pickup truck with an engine.
@@rexrocker1268yeah a recall that Tesla caught early in production that only affected under 4000 cars. Whereas Ford issued a recall on over 3 million vehicles but no one ever mentions that.
@@donkstonian Ok? Cybertruck was out for like a month and only delivered that many. All cars have recalls. But Tesla really does have a terrible record.
And if you have a fender bender? Have fun waiting 2 months for a corner panel to be replaced. I do give Tesla some credit, they give you a loaner car, but it won’t be the model you bought. My boss had an X, had to take it in several times for electrical issues, it was brand new. Then someone crashed into his car while he was having dinner. That took over 3 months to get fixed and he had to use a Model S. He was a tall and fat man, Even Model S couldn’t handle it with his big butt lol.
lol “I still have a family. For now” 😂 0:55
as someone who has towed many times, having a good camera showing the hitch is much faster than controlling the rv itself. however, this does give you the ability to completely protect the trailer from theift by moving it so that the hitch is completely blocked against the wall. its an ev trailer so chance of some theif just picking it up and pulling is pretty low, but i guess thats cool.
but honestly, as someone who has towed an rv multiple times, this is not ideal at all. you never want to need a specific trailer to tow with your expensive pickup truck. the plus of having extended range is cool and if you live in it, this would be pretty cool. but most people park their trailer for long periods of time and having so much technology involved, makes it extremely susceptible to rats and other pest related damage and once a wire gets bitten off here, it becomes a much greater issue than a normal trailer because its all connected.
Interesting! Good points!
I think there are about four companies that I know of that are working on putting EV motors in the wheels now, but I’m willing to bet it won’t be long before it could be an option with many trailers to extend the range of the tow vehicle.
I have a gas tow vehicle now that goes from a normal unladen range of about 380 miles, to 225 miles with the trailer, so it’s great for a gas or EV to get back half the range. Plus the party trick to me is with all the solar on this trailer, you can recharge the EV while camping.
Been waiting to see this combo for a while. Thanks!
CT VIN released and awaiting delivery. Pebble reservation 10/2023. Best of both worlds. Needless to say, I am giddy in anticipation.
Congrats!
With current housing prices in California, I’ll buy this one instead of real house 🏠 😂
Do the numbers first. It might be worth it, but you need to do the numbers. ( capital outlay and operating costs )
@@JoeyBlogs007zero percent chance you can find a home that’s this nice for $125K lmao
That’s way too expensive for what it is
My eyes are burning looking at this
Thank you, Chris for sharing this video. I didn’t know this amazing equipment exists, I love it.❤
So great how they fixed so many of the concerns with traditional trailers
Thank you so much for showing us amazing cars with the safest and most robust technology. I love this video.
i love the way chris puts so much effort into his vids new sub added
yay!
@@EverydayChris yes the legend replied
I came here curious about Cybertruck range towing this monster, was amazed by Pebble design. Well done guys !
Well done, answered a lot of questions. This set up is what I am saving up for.
I was gonna say something funny about how Americans re-invented something Europe has had for the past 75 years - the caravan. but in honesty this is a great new development combining all the best things from caravans, motorhomes, trailers even a little tiny house and food truck sprinkled in there, and last but not least the electrification, system with motors and all that. its awesome and I hope it does well!
bro this thing is amazing
Fantastic video! I am excited for the Pebble Flow trailer and Cybertruck!
Thanks God i found this video, i was about to buy a Gas powered Rv, but this is the way to go Thanks Chris
Good for you Chris! This is big!
Seeing how happy he is just doing what he loves makes me wish I had the secret to that type of happiness in general
Love the production value of your content as it’s evolved over time. Well done video.
Thanks man! The pebble team helped a lot
@@EverydayChrisEither way, it’s been cool to see your channel leveling up. Good stuff my man.
Nice, informative vid and very cool product! Might be interesting configured as a food truck.
I've been waiting for this combination ❤❤
it's a slick combo
Excited for this! I kept getting ads on my Instagram for the Pebble RV and thought “this would be great with the Cybertruck if it Ives up to its promises”
It does. I can’t say much but the range efficiency is insane
CEO looked agitated to be there 😂
“Just Go” 😅
Hahaah
CTO
This is epic. Bc the trailer assists with the drive.
Weight is always a concern for travel trailers. By my back of the envelope calculations, that 1500lb of batteries, motors, etc. will get you an extra 50 miles of range. Well, maybe less since I didn't take into account the extra 1500lb in the mi/kWh estimate. Don't forget that you're going to need 2 fast chargers at each stop, one CCS and one NACS. The 45kWh stated capacity is also almost exactly the estimate for the Cybertruck range extender. You could buy one of those, a normal trailer, and a duffel bag to hold all the leftover cash.
Trailer GVWR of 6200lbs, actual weight? 5000lbs? Battery should only be 500lbs for 45kWh, motors and drivetrain vs standard axle probably plus 1000lbs?
Moving that weight by itself would likely take 500wh/m, but there may be a big aero advantage behind a tow vehicle given its shape. Not sure how much power they will "drive" it forward with, but I bet there could be between 90-100 mile range improvement, 45kWh/500wh/m.
Putting the range extender in the CT is basically a permanent add, leaving that weight in the trailer seems like a better idea.
Says it can charge an EV from the trailer, so maybe only one plug in to charge both at the same time, need to see what the outlet port from the trailer is, along with charge controller capability.
Cash outlay, you are correct. Way overpriced.
Looks like an awesome product. I wonder how the Pebble Flow syncs its wheel to road speed to match the speed of the vehicle towing it.
I want to rent one, including the hitch! I can see them becoming available in a couple sizes. I’d like a smaller one (I drive a Y). I can easily imagine a couple of friends renting one too, then camping somewhere in a group! Gimme!
Wow I never expected myself to watch a review for a trailer! Glad I did!
Gotta say this combo is very cool. And they thought of a lot of cool things with the Pebble. I'm excited to see how well the Pebbles hold up.
Saw this project about a year and a half ago, then saw in person at the LA auto show a few months ago, immediately after I put my deposit on it, still waiting 👍🏻😎🍺
Soon!! I saw it at the la auto show too!
The Cybertuck & Pebble Flow combo is really intriguing. I would love to travel North America in this combo.
14:18 - That's such a great idea. I should lower my light switches and thermostat to 28" instead of 55". I hate not having to kneel down to operate switches and control panels.
Absolutely cool, but backing and connecting a trailer isn’t all that difficult. It takes practice, but it’s an easy skill to learn, especially with backup cameras that can see the hitch and tongue.
Wow---The Peble can maneuver itself like European trailers have been able to do for 30 years!
Thank you for sharing ❤❤
Except for those huge windows I love it. ❤
I am literally at a realtor's office watching this. I'm about to go look at a 350k house that still needs work. What should I do?
The house probably
Wow!!!!! Congrats on the new trailer!!! 🤩🔥👍
Haha not mine! Just testing it! Thanks though!
Wow this is so cool!
I know right!?
how big would the battery have to be to make it worth towing cross country? and is taht smallenough to build an RV over it?
Great episode. I thought that take off from a stop was very impressive. But I’m a newb and have only read and watched shows about towing big trailers.
It seems as though I’m not alone 😁
So I really appreciate seeing you set it up without much more experience than I’ll bring to my CT towing adventures.
And the more I see the Pebble the more I think I might consider it… I’m dreaming of a Living Vehicle (but who isn’t right?). This is 1/4 the price and it has 2 more motors.
Is the Pebble something that can get a protective wrap to match the one on your Cybertruck?
haha. I had one with the motors engaged but they said I had to take it out since it's not ready yet officially
Can’t wait to see a video of a camping trip somewhere cool with some awesome cooked meals!
1 - Perhaps - when you lock the door from the inside, the door step outside could retract? .. and obviously visa versa - when you unlock the door - put the door step back into place. Make this a customisable option. It would really say "do not disturb".
2 - I think the outside window tinting needs to have intermediary steps or levels of opacity - perhaps even allowing the top of the windows to stay more transparent than the bottom? I think the transparency of the windows in the Cyberlandr can be adjusted - just no scaling of transparency between the top and the bottom of the same window...
i3 - In my current Caravan, the biggest use of Water is washing dishes. I like the idea of a small 4-people dish washer - as it will save water and give us all more camping time. Please look into that option!
Second place is the shower - so I hope the shower head has a fine mist option.
4 - Where is the spare tyre?
5 - I believe an awning is coming. If there was a "wind" detector - perhaps the awning could automagically wind itself in so it does not get damaged? ... and can we have flexible Solar Panels on the Awning as well please!
6 - Can we have a Camera at the rear - that links to the towing vehicle driver seat?
7 - What about Proximity sensor driven outdoor lights to light up the outside for when one comes "home" - obviously also with a timer system as well as fully On and Off.
If it help out with the towing/ less pull on the car can you use a tesla model y
This is so cool!
Love this! Really hope we get a Pebble in the future that can be towed by a Model Y!
Stefan looks super annoyed
Sickest set up on earth!
so cool
CT + Pebble Flow= PERFECT COMBO
It’s so sexy
That is awesome trailer!
Very fitting. Great video I just subscribed to your channel
thanks Chris! Great name!
Tesla has towbar..... OH MY GOD ITS SO REVOLUTIONARY
I just wish it would be available in Europe too. I would love to travel around in this. Greetings from Iceland.
Great video!
It’s the futur. The main interest is self-propulsion RV’s connected to EV’s with little or no effect on your EV battery. The Lightship 1 is another great RV by EX Tesla engineers. I wonder how this could affect this new breed of RV licence category and insurance costs ?
Love this! Now make one for half the price and size!
Imagine a tear drop one or one that can tow with a model y!
The trailor looks well-built and i like the material they choose, However, I think the price at this point is out of reach for average American family; for 100k you can basically stay in expensive airbnb for years isn't it.
Must be such fun, go 90 miles stop, park unhitch trailer, park again, wait for charge, flatten ipad watching movie, move truck hitch caravan, plug in ipad to charge off truck. Repeat every 90 miles.
Imagine going from california to new York at oregan trail pace.
I was super excited when I saw the first official release video for the Pebble Flow and now this. I was wondering how long it would take for someone with a Cybertruck to get an opportunity to tow one. I'd be interested to see benchmark numbers comparing towing an equally heavy trailer that isn't the Pebble. I want to know how much of a difference the Pebble's own motors has on the overall range of the Cybertruck in this scenario.
coming soon!
Great! now i want one.
all electric rv towed by tesla ev car sounds super good!
it must be a true home away from home all in that minibox! i'm intrigued!
Yeah! Exciting!
Wheel pivot point will lead to a lot of turning issues. Why didn't hey put the wheels further back? WATCH OUT FOR THAT SWING!
good video ..............Sir can you tell me , the Pebble Flow Solar can Recharge Tesla Cybertruck thank you
When can we find out the range with it on the CT? 🙏
this is the coolest thing
Holy sh*t! I wish I had this setup!
How do you super charge when towing this?
could utilize more of roof space for solar panels and side roof line also for more panels - more panels = better for longer living in these things without worry of running out of electricity. Now if they make roof and side roof line collect rain water and filter it out and store it in bigger fresh water storage that would be a lot more amazing for longer living periods in these things.
Great to see, but the first problem will be when you go to charge and you find out there are bugger all drive through chargers and you have to unhitch first.
Luckily it’s as easy as the press of a button.
The biggest issue I saw in other towing videos the cyber truck just doesn’t have the brains yet to adjust its range which is a big problem. The trailer is what I have been saying is needed as it has the motors, get the trailer and the truck to talk and share power and range it will be a real beast of a setup
What happened to the Tesla trailer that was unveiled with the Cybertruck on the websiye
Any way for power to flow from the Pebble Flow to the Cybertruck, to charge the Cybertruck (even if relatively slowly?)
Yes you can!!
11:31 bidirectional NEMA 1450 plug.
I so hope that one day Tesla creates a 'motor home' extension that fully 'docks' into cyber truck. Cyber-Docking. 😂
Just wow!!
The regenerative breaking on the trailer itself is a good safety feature imho
This is awesome. You can go camping for a week, and if you have sun, probably more. If you need to charge your EV too, you can charge it. I'm assuming the solar isn't game changing but if you don't need to use your car that much you could potentially just live off grid like this indefinitely. Just need sewage and water hookups but whatever
Yeah that's cool. It has a battery to charge your car too. Yeah
Can it link to Tesla vision for sentry security and Tesla trailer awareness while driving? Trailer braking control would be very good too 😊
You can mount the ipad in the truck and see a 360 view of the pebble while driving
We towed a 21' Safari Condo trailer with our 2020 Model X. Cut our range in half. Having the powered wheels would be a huge improvement. We also bought a Trailer Valet which you hooked up to the trailer hitch and provided the power to move the trailer into your campsite space. Really helpful when your dining room is on the hitch end of the trailer. It was always a crowd pleaser when we'd hook it up and "drive" the trailer into our site. Obviously much nicer to have the system built in.
I’ve been towing a 17ft Safari Condo for 6 years with my 2017 Model X. At 55mph on a level dry road it cuts the car range by 35-40%. I plan my charging stops carefully and it’s not a problem. The Pebble Flow is very impressive but too heavy to tow with an X which has a max towing weight of 5,000lbs. I wish Pebble had made a 20-21ft lighter version. I don’t need such a big trailer.
@@user-um8jt1wz8l I wonder if the wt is still an issue when the trailer has powered wheels.
@@k8923 The answer to your question is difficult to determine. In theory, a trailer with its own powered drive train that can be controlled so that the tow vehicle does not experience the trailer weight should mean that an X could safely tow a trailer that weighs more than what Tesla says the X is rated to tow.. But if you asked Tesla about that I believe they would take a conservative approach and say “We don’t recommend that!”. And consider this; what if, while you were towing your Pebble Flow with your X, the Flow drivetrain had a failure and the wheels were no longer powered. Suddenly your X is towing a very heavy trailer far exceeding its rated weight limit. To me that is a potentially hazardous situation if you as the driver had to make a quick maneuver. Low probability of occurring? Yes. But very dangerous? Yes.
THANKS CHRIS 🙏 FOR SHARING THIS UPDATE ON PEBBLE,🤔 MAYBE YOU CAN BE A LITTLE MORE ENTHUSIASTIC 😬💚💚💚
Awesome video 😎
Thanks 😁
Does the pebble flow have cargo caravans
so dope
Great vid thanks
Can we talk details ? How long this operate in one charge ?
I was at like 60 and it said 1-2 days
IMO having a handle that is like a power-assisted wagon could be more helpful and faster than an app. I always worried about hitting something in summon mode on my Tesla.
13:51 : wow... Space grade panel gaps! That cabinet door looks like it's dragging on one end. The ceiling looks just as bad. Hopefully the production version has more attention to detail than the "pre production prototype."
How efficient was the Cyber Truck with the electric assist from the Pebble? It's common knowledge now that towing kills range. Have you tested how far can the CT drive with the Pebble?
much more efficient... can't share details but coming very soon
My guess is the 180-230 mile range. Jerryrigeverything towed 10k lbs and it went 97 miles or something, this weighs about half that and is more aero dynamic, so I imagine this is roughly the realistic range when towing.
Why does this have a CCS plug? Why not NACS?
At $100k it certainly isnt cheap, but for what it is, if the company can take off this is amazing.
Could you charge the EV with these solar panels form the RV? And through the tug wire??
Yeah it has reverse charging
Water and food bowl for dog right in front of the door where you gonna trip over em 😂
What's the range pulling that thing? 50 miles? 25 miles?
Chris says that towing cuts EV range because of the weight being towed but that is not accurate. There are multiple factors. The primary reason range is reduced while towing is because of the added aerodynamic drag of the trailer (which is why Pebble focused on streamlining the trailer shape) and that drag increases significantly at higher speeds. Just going 65 instead of 55mph makes a big difference. Also rain and headwinds cut range noticeably. The other factor is rolling resistance (having additional tires on the road) and then weight.
all true.
another problem is you cant increase the range of the EV while some massive diesel trucks can have up to 2500 miles of range and cross entire deserts very easily.
Not true. Let's Assume it's perfect aerodynamic, no any resistance from air. You need to apply extra energy for it everytime accelerating. Whence you are driving up hill, you need to apply other extra energy to against gravity. It's physics.
Can the Pebble RV solar roof charge the Cybertruck?
Yes. It charges the battery and you can reverse charge the CT
They should put an electric motor on the trailer to help with the range it could actually push the truck while truck charging the truck and when truck is pulling the trailer the trailer can be charging that way you get unlimited range
Yeah that’s on there bro lol
I can't wait for the Pebble Flow Mini to come out!! ❤ 5,000 pounds UVW?
