New videos of Tesla Cybertruck off-roading appear to show it struggling to climb up a steep dirt hill::One video showed a 1946 Jeep CJ-2A successfully navigating the same hill that the Cybertruck struggled to summit.

The only difference is that when it comes to repairing the clutch on the jeep, you can just go get a coffee with your Tesla because it doesn't have one. I bet that the Tesla just needs a lower gear to win that competition. The jeep wins because it's very light and has a low gear.

Repairing a clutch in a jeep like that isn't a big deal. Those things were actually designed to be repaired in the field easily.
