    The best things about TFL getting this truck:
    -It’s going to be tested like no other channel
    -It’s going to actually be off roaded
    -It’ll get a true range test (maybe even road trip…?)
    -TFL will give it a real towing test
    -You’ll do a proper drag race against a lot the cars in your collection that’ll be be exciting
    TFL, you may have spent a lot on this thing, but you’ve bought Raptors, big Ram off road trucks, other Teslas (lol), Hellcat, and modded a ton of cars!
    Have fun with it, don’t regret the purchase too much (unless it breaks).

      Both All-Wheel Drive and Cyberbeast vehicles have the hardware necessary to enable differential locking.
      Cyberbeast has locking differentials on the front axle only. Since the rear axle features two independent motors, it does not require a differential locker for off-road use.
      Cybertruck All-Wheel Drive has locking differentials on both front and rear axles.
      The differential lockers are currently inactive and will be enabled in the future with an over-the-air software update.

    I'm definitely interested in the usual battery of TFL tests, but at this point, I'm not sure what the Cybertruck actual does/feature that earns it the title of "most important vehicle of the last 10 years." I mean outside of edgy styling (literally, haha), and the big screen control center that they already introduced years ago in other models, it just feels like it's a pretty gimmicky vehicle that will not stand the test of time.

I agree with you, I'm not a petrolhead, but I have followed the development of vehicles and even if I'm ok with being a passenger I have always loved to feel the inovations in driving a car and preferably awd trucks for use in my work. But after I was disabled and bedridden after a too high immunresponse from the Corona vaccine made my immune defence system attack my nervous system and destroyed me. And when you are not allowed to drive a car here I live you are completely isolated if it wasen't for family and friends. I'm bedridden but I'm missing the freedom feeling with my car, and in this situation a self-driving vehicle had been a very good solution for me. Best Regards from Arne G in Norway
