New videos of Tesla Cybertruck off-roading appear to show it struggling to climb up a steep dirt hill::One video showed a 1946 Jeep CJ-2A successfully navigating the same hill that the Cybertruck struggled to summit.

I mean what do ppl expect, it looks like it has normal road tires and weighs probably at 5 k pound... Any truck with that weight/tire setup would struggle...not defending tesla but the expectations are quiet off...

I think people expect the truck with instant torque to do truck things

I had Skoda Yeti, which is 4k pounds, I had road tires, and the car is not even considered a true off-road vehicle. But I climbed hills like that easily, sometimes on cruise-control (I'd disabled it here because of a sharp turn)
