I think the hummer is a really good comparison here. The ground clearance and low center of gravity of the cybertruck will most likely give it legendary off road capabilities. I can't wait to see some footage of one at moab or something.

Depends what kind of off-road. A lot of off-road involves fairly narrow tracks and tight spaces. This is a large vehicle compared to, say, a Jeep Wrangler Rubicon.

The kind of off-road done by people who think that the ford f-250 is a good off-road vehicle.

In fairness, 4x4 pickups do get used (out of necessity) in work situations where the roads can be pretty bad. A lot of oilfield work for example. But that's often a lot different from the sort of off-roading that a lot of people do recreationally where tracks can be really narrow and a short turning radius (and wheelbase) can be really useful.

Can’t wait to see Kanye blasting through the desert in one of these.
