These three truck are very different, but they also compete on features and price. We have a refreshed 2025 Ram 1500 Rebel with a 3.0L Hurricane twin-turbo I6, a refreshed 2024 Ford F-150 Tremor with a 5.0L Coyote V8, and a new 2024 Tesla Cybertruck dual-motor electric pickup. Last time we saw that the Cybertruck could only go about 85 miles with a camping trailer in tow on a full charge. Now, it’s time to see how they stack up when towing an 8,800 lbs trailer. Let’s go!
This towing review is brought to you by our friends at Weigh Safe hitches.
Here are the specs!

We do two 0-60 mph acceleration runs in each truck: one while pulling a 8,800 lbs trailer, and another with an unladen truck. The results are a bit surprising.
