Why did the CT fail? Is it only 2WD? Bad power distribution algorithm to wheels? Stranded on belly (low clearance)?
EDIT: Yes possibly bad power distribution, but I don't necessarily trust the source.
Iirc it was mostly a stupid driver with improper tires on terrain that didn't quite look as bad as it actually was.
The cybertruck doesn't have differentials at all, so it shouldn't need locking diff's.
The entire point of having differentials is to make sure the power from the engine isn't being misdirected to a wheel with no traction, but the cybertruck has independent motors for each wheel.
