Ford X Vice President Sundeep Madra clapped back at Musk’s claims, asking him to send a Cybertruck over to the Ford headquarters so they could set up a fair match – essentially, a tug of war between the two vehicles.
hey @elonmusk send us a cybertruck and we will do the apples to apples test for you 😉😉😉https://t.co/H3v6dCZeV5

While fans of both Tesla and Ford are psyched for the possible rematch, auto experts agree that the tug of war contest probably wouldn’t be a great way to test the difference between the two vehicles, especially since traction is necessary to fully test torque.
