Cybertruck engineer pushes back on claims that Tesla EVs rust in the rain — “It’s surface contamination only and can be cleaned off easily.”::A Cybertruck engineer, Wes Morrill, addressed claims Tesla’s truck rusts in the rain and said the specks of rust were the size of a “pinhead.”
Contaminated by what? CONTAMINATED BY WHAT MOTHERFUCKER
I wouldn’t call polishing your car every three days “clean off easily”
Cybertruck engineer pushes back— by admitting it is rust
Never seen a rusty de lorian… just sayin’
It happens, and it’s a very sad sight indeed.
Edit: Yeah, that one is a fake. Sorry about that.
Doing an image search, there are a lot of real ones in various states of decay or oxidization. Certainly takes a lot more time (and straight up abandonment) for a DeLorean to show damage.
Yeah but like outside of this AI image have you ever seen a rusty DeLorean?
Using technology from the present to depict a past relic in a state it’ll be in the future
You just have to think fourth-dimensionally.
Obvious AI-generated image is obvious

Like a, uh… like a cyber truck?
surface contamination only
That’s my engineer LOL
Didn’t he know that the surface is the most important part? Surface is everything!
And this is why you don’t buy stainless steel sinks and cars, unless you want to polish them regularly they will look like shit even just from water stains.
Edit: Stop telling me your sink doesn’t have rust on it. I’m not talking about rust. Most stainless steel will not rust. I’m talking about how stainless steel can become ugly from residual water marks, staines, water with high mineral content, etc Unless you take care of it, clean it and polish it regularly. Maybe ideal for a kitchen surface but not for a big ass ugly car.
Never seen any rust on my stainless steel sink
Yeah just tannin staining tbh
30 years of a stainless steel sink without any rust

I’ll bet you’ve probably seen what, maybe five or six stainless steel sinks in your time?
Stainless steel which has been sufficiently alloyed with Chromium won’t rust. The chromium reacts with oxygen at the surface and forms an inert layer preventing oxidation of the iron in the steel. Cybertruck’s stainless steel simply doesn’t have enough Chromium.
Just wipe it down, then.
Rust grows once it’s punctured down, everyone knows this, no? I guess they only test cars in Texas and California. Still like the trukk
What do you like about it?
I live rural and driving a big ol electric brick is my dream XD
Me too, better options than a stainless steel liability though.
