This is what a 145" wheelbase gets you. CT has a 26 degree breakover angle despite 17" ground clearance. This is NOT an acceptable offroad vehicle.

lol right by me. CT is the dumbest vehicle made in a quarter century.

Every generation needs its own Pontiac Aztek as a benchmark of rock bottom. I have to admit, though, I do like the Aztek look better than the CT, which I never believed would ever happen!

With the CT, not only is it not built for off roading, but it seems like most of it's owners don't really know what they are doing out there. Lots of obvious rookie mistakes like not airing down or taking a bad angle over an obstacle.

the R1T has basically the same breakover angle.

While I agree with you. We only have 0.3deg advantage in breakover angle from documentation.

26.3deg for the R1T
26.0 deg for the Cybertruk <--surprisingly hard to find that number anywhere FROM Tesla.

Using the formula found here: 2*[arctan( (2*Clearance)/Wheelbase )]

R1T - 135.8in WB and 14.9in Clearance = 24.75deg
Cyber - 143.1in WB and 17.4 16in Clearance = 27.33 25.2deg

Not sure what's up with that, guessing 17.4 isn't the right number there. I should have looked harder before the first post.

**EDIT**
Looks like 16in is the office clearance number - From Tesla Website

Think about what you just wrote man... "the Aztek looks better than.." how far have we sank as a race when someone can make a statement like that? Is there no turning back? ?

Seriously, did that dumbf**k think he was going to make it over that dune top with that steep dropoff on the other side in such a long wheelbase/heavy vehicle? Not a chance, not even close

To be fair, the CT sure does seem to be breaking bad.

^ I almost missed that due to the beautiful crystal blue sky.

And that's why I have an R1S...

Cybertruck is better for hauling fireworks and volatile chemicals. Also better at cyberassault vehicle wrap decorations.

I hate to judge people's judgment by the way they dress, but...
