Was very disheartened to find this.
This area is off Jojoba Wash near the Piepkorn slot so definitely within the Anza Borrego State Park boundary.
I only know because I have camped near here numerous times.
From what I have researched these are test trucks with Texas license plates.

Pretty wild. Do you think they are damaging the truck trails?
I don't know, but my guess is most people who would buy a cybertruck are probably not skilled off road drivers.

If you look back on Google Earth, this area has been pretty beat up for > 10 years. Here's a view from > 7 years ago and looks like the Cybertruck is not disturbing pristine ground. Kinda looks like the mess at Diablo drop off. I certainly get what you're saying though, Surfponto.

Yeah we have watched jeeps and other 4x4s use this hill forever.
I guess I was biased due to the fact that they were test trucks from Tesla 🤣
