Hey all, sharing some images from a trip out to Yucca Valley / Sunfair dry lake bed. This is a really great spot that you can just drive out onto from the highway and freely roam with your vehicle. Terrain is mostly flat with some small hills and a handful of lower-speed trails. Highly recommend it to any locals in the SoCal area that want a super approachable off-road experience!

We threw the truck into Off-road "Baja" mode and played with front/rear power split using the UI. Uncontrollable laughter ensued. Was very easy to break traction & very controllable on uneven ground. Enjoy!

Thanks for sharing!

Do you know if there is anyway to run it in Baja mode, with all the features that allows, while lowering the suspension to medium height?

Congratulations! Must be fun to exit the queue and finally get to play with the truck. Looked like Mars till I saw the Palm Trees.

I second this question: can you run it at medium height but in Baja mode? Air suspension gets so stiff at full height, I’d like to run it at partial height with adjustable power split

Nice photos!

What I would like to see is the rear steering behaviour when drifting the rear around.
Does it actively steer against the drift to stop it or does it just stay parallel with the vehicle?

This might have different behaviour in Baja and street modes, seeing that Baja mode allows for loss of traction, whereas road modes (until there is a track mode) will try to stop the rear from drifting and braking out. There I'd fully expect the rear to steer against the drift to regain control.
A GoPro camera pointed at the rear wheels whilst doing these maneuvers would likely show this.
