It does not weigh 8000 to 10000 pounds. It is listed between 6500 and 7000.
Citation needed. It’s expected to be around 7k lbs, over 8k would put it in the hummer EV territory.

Do you have a source for that?
A quick Google tells me that a 2024 Ford F-150 weight is about 1,000 lbs less than a Cybertruck’s purported weight.
Maybe the were referring to the F-150 Lightning, which is similar weight to the Cybertruck.
> similar weight
At 6600 lbs vs 8250 lbs, Cybertruck is far lighter. In fact it's the lightest EV truck available.
Twice the weight of the Tesla model 3 which is 1800kg, it's pretty extreme.
Most EVs weigh about that much, to the point that some cities are considering amending "No trucks" signs to also say no EVs.

Do they? Model X weighs 5600lbs, here - https://www.caranddriver.com/tesla/model-x - and that's bigger than any of the other, more popular, Teslas other than the Cybertruck.
Far cry from 8-10000. Or even 7-8000.
Tesla 3 - up to 4065.
Tesla S - up to 4941.
Tesla X - up to 5531.
Tesla Y - up to 4416.
Chevy Bolt - 3563.
Leaf - up to 3853.
Mach-E - up to 4920.
ID.4 - up to 4848.
E-Tron - up to 5754.
BMW iX - up to 5659.
Taycan - up to 5121
Kona EV - up to 3715.I like how you just excluded all the comparable EVs. Here they are for completeness, most coming close to or topping out the standard 7k where they will post "No Trucks" signs.
Ford Lightning - 6,893
Hummer EV - 9,063
Rivian R1T - 7,148
Lordstown Endurance - 6,450
Chevrolet Silverado EV - 8,532
RAM 1500 REV - est. 7,500
Alpha Wolf - 7,088Your claim was about “Most EVs”. I listed the most popular EVs, without edits.
That’s shockingly heavy to move around 200lbs meat sacks.
