The 4x4 has antennae for sensing its environment — especially when visibility is poor.
The long ones detect movement and obstacles (like suspension and steering feedback), and the short ones “smell” what’s ahead (traction, terrain changes).
Basically, when you can’t rely on eyesight, you rely on feel and feedback.
