Turning perceptions on their heads, this video shows a Porsche 911 wrapped like a watermelon, which had to tow a Tesla Cybertruck after its battery died.
Poking fun at a Tesla advert, these two YouTubers set out to take their Porsche 911 to the Watermelon Days Festival in Utah, so they decided to wrap their porsche to look like a watermelon.
However, disaster struck when the Cybertruck that was meant to be pulling the trailer with the Porschemelon 911 ran out of charge and the tables turned, so that the tired Porschemelon 911 had to pull the Tesla Cybertruck.
In a full circle moment, the Tesla advert, which has now proven to be a bit of movie magic, has now been completely reversed and it turns out a Porsche 911 makes for a pretty good towing vehicle.

When the Tesla advert you can see above dropped, it sparked some controversy because people couldn’t quite believe that a Tesla Cybertruck pulling a Porsche 911 could beat an actual Porsche 911.
It has since been debunked as a bit of movie magic by the EV automaker to encourage people to buy new Cybertrucks, but it still takes up a lot of brain capacity in fans of Porsches and Teslas.
Ironically, this advert would later be an inspiration for these two YouTubers who were setting out to attend the Watermelon Days Festival in Utah.
They wanted to take their Porsche 911 to the Watermelon Days Festival, so they decided to wrap it up to look like a watermelon in celebration.
To get the Porschemelon 911 to Utah for the festival, the YouTubers at Stickshift decided to tow it using a Cybertruck like in the controversial Tesla advert.
However, while they were in the deserts of Utah, the Cybertruck battery ran out, forcing the two to turn the tables and have the Porschemelon 911 haul the gigantic EV.
The Cybertruck became a sort of float when it came to the parade at the Watermelon Days Festival as it was hauled along by the tired Porsche 911.
It really was a full circle moment to watch the Porsche haul the Cybertruck and proves that justice, like watermelons, tastes sweet.
