Florida man drives the 2026 Tesla Cybertruck Premium AWD and declares it the 'best pickup truck ever made'

It was high praise from this Florida man, as he declared the 2026 Tesla Cybertruck Premium AWD the ‘best pickup truck ever made’.

Wherever you look on the internet, there’s somebody with an opinion on the electric truck.

With how polarizing Tesla vehicles have proven to be, there’s no shortage of negative opinions.

But you won’t find any of that with this YouTuber – he’s a huge fan.

It feels like everyone and their dog has an opinion on the Tesla Cybertruck

The Cybertruck holds a very distinct place in the automotive world – even people who don’t know much about cars can recognize it instantly.

And with that level of recognition, comes a whole lot of divisive opinions.

People either love or hate this angular electric truck.

In the former category was a man who said it was the first vehicle he was excited to own, while one mom from California also gave it a hearty endorsement.

But then there are the critics who don’t mince their words.

One need only look at this Rhode Island mechanic to see how fiery the criticism can get.

Fortunately for Tesla, it won’t be hearing such words of condemnation from YouTuber carswithtrace.

Why did this Florida man declare it the ‘best pickup truck ever made’?

“So Tesla decided to give your boy the key to this Cybertruck Premium, and I got to say this thing is massive,” Trace declared.

And he wasn’t kidding – this Cybertruck measured at 18.6 feet.

That meant there was plenty of space inside the vehicle, both in the cabin and in the bed.

“Lot of room in the back. I mean, a lot of room, a lot of storage space,” he said.

“If you want to travel with your pet, you want to put them in the back, lay their bed down, have all this space in the rear.”

He noted there was also plenty of headspace, even for someone who was over 6 foot in height.

But there was one small area of critique, and trust when we say small has two meanings here.

“Only complaints that I have—this little rearview mirror, and then this little [sun visor] right here,” he said.

“Wish they would have made it bigger. No, this is pretty small. Wish they would have [given] you more mirror view.”

He took it out for a drive, letting the Full Self-Driving speak for itself out on the open roads.

It performed beautifully as it stayed within lanes, navigated turns smoothly, and adjusted its speed in line with signs on the road.

All in all, this guy was singing the truck’s praises.

“When it first came out, I was a little bit like… I don’t know, they just don’t look too good to me,” he said.

“But now that I’ve been able to see them more often, I like the light bar in the front.

“With this truck being as massive, I thought that there would have been a couple of blind spots, but the camera situation… I don’t really have many blind spots.

“And I know that some are going to say, ‘Oh, well, I don’t like the full self-driving or whatnot. I don’t want a car driving me.’ I think what many have to do is literally experience it themselves.”
