What would you rather have? I’m in Colorado and I know off roading has a following but I’m not sure just how popular it is 🤷‍♂️ So the question is do more people care about the Cybertrucks off road capabilities or care about long range towing?

I’d assume that with the CT, “off roading” is a bit more often like “overlanding”

a truck with this wheelbase, etc., isn’t exactly an ideal trail pig**

but if you need the cargo capacity for overlanding, the trade-offs make sense






** I keep waiting for Tesla to brag about the brakeover and departure/approach angles; until then, I assume they’re not exactly class-leading

Buying a truck so I can tow my track car to the track. So I guess towing and range is more important.

I do not like having to make a choice here. If I drive a long distance chances are good that I will need the off road capabilities but I cannot use them if I cannot get myself and the toys there (and back). It’s a package. If your poll said: (1) offloading, (2) towing, (3) range, (4) some combination of 1-3, or (5) other I would think you would get better information.

We have our UTV for off roading but we need towing to get it where we want to go.
