Interesting lift mechanism, but not wide or long enough for my use case (motorcycle), but may help others with lifting a large wielder or small but heavy item.

Not large enough for even a small, square skid, so not sure how useful it will be to commercial users.

Thanks hridge2020.... great find.
This will be my new preferred option if Tesla doesn't engineer an integrated solution.

A lift for a motorcycle? Just drive it up the ramp into the lowered rear of the CT. I mean, it doesn't get much easier than that. A lift would just complicate things too much for that operation.

There are many videos on why driving a motorcycle into the back of a truck is a bad idea.

And I do plan on using the ramp and the ability of the CyberTruck to squat to make it easier.

But that is pretty much the heaviest thing I plan on moving regularly, so I am not a good example for a lift gate. I did wish I had one on the moving truck I rented when I moved a piano...
