⁠@@Ezekiel903 I have been saying the same thing about Tesla and other Auto manufacturers for a few years now. We are just at the threshold where they will start implementing the Cell Phone and Laptop sales model. Every new update will reduce and increase battery usage, and life. They have already adopted the micro transactions model with these new EVs and are pressing hard to initiate that into existing and newer ICE vehicles, wanting to charge monthly for pre installed and payed for at purchase heated seats, auto start, heated windshields, etc, etc.

Unlike most of these off-road vehicles you refer to, the Tesla is extremely heavy and requires very stiff tires which cannot be aired down like others to give you the edge for the traction. Sadly as nice as it is it is basically a mall crawler. I would like to see it compared to a Subaru in the same situations. Considering my son and wife have them I'm still not a fan of the Subarus and currently looking to purchase a 2023 Tacoma with a V6.

@@rmat9023 To more easily see this think about a truck on a 30 or so degree incline. Gravity is trying to pull the truck down the incline. The more weight the more it pulls. If we add enough weigh it will break lose and slide back down. It is more complex that this but it illustrates some of the problem. The cyberTrucks were designed to be inexpensive to build. Yes they are high now but they are also profitable after 1 quarter of production. The casting eliminated around 400 parts. No significant paint shop will save huge and the line does not wait for paint to dry. If they get a handle on managing the SS this could be the shortest fastest build ever. Short + fast equates to lower cost.

Yeah I read in the Cybertruck Manual to Remove wheel fairings: Cybertruck has pieces of plastic trim that descend in front of the wheels from the rocker panels on either side of the vehicle. These are the wheel fairings. The wheel fairings increase aerodynamic performance and range, but may be damaged while driving off-road over rough, uneven surfaces, rocks, or obstacles. To prevent damage, remove the front wheel fairings before off-road driving. For more information and instructions for removing the wheel fairings, refer to the Do It Yourself Guide (see Do It Yourself Maintenance).

Thanks for testing like this, not just another tesla person learning to offroad. The locker would really help and I am at a loss why it is still not available. Maybe hard to find a way on an AWD to keep people from turning it on during regular driving? There are a number of oddities I have also seen from other videos. The cut power rather than brake lock, but also I do not know why none of the adjustable height vehicles do not find a way to increase the ride height without stiffening the heck out of the suspension. There has to be a way to do it that is not completely expensive. Also I know that the electric motors have full torque from the start line but I still think a two speed gear ratio would really help with the low speed off road heat buildup and resolution of the motor like a stepper motor and allow low speed finesse.

E-lockers are not a safety thing. Self driving is. Tesla sucks as an actual automotive company and they used to be a tech driven company. But they're having issues as usual with research and development especially with more volume they are selling now. I worked on them when they pulled the techs too help with quality control on the assembly line. What I saw was the reality of a government backed tech company making cars (aka Tesla) compared to a Ford or Mercedes assembly line. They are going to fall behind very very soon in their own game. It's going to be the opposite of what investors say along with critics on the big legacy brands.
