Elon and Jon Delorean are the same guy. Stainless steel is not stainless. It corrodes. It picks up every tiny smudge. It's a bad material for body panels and we know this because we figured it out decades ago. At least the Delorean still looks loving cool and can be repaired and improved because it's just a car, in 5 years when the Cybertruk's electronic systems or software shits itself, who is going to be qualified fix it? And at what cost? It's a useless consumer product that has no lifespan.

would be interesting to see the chemical analysis of the stainless. very much doubt he used the good stuff.

did they avoid carbon steel tooling in manufacturing? not a chance.

there was some fluff story about how there's an openly gay matador in Spain now, and I replied with something to the effect of "who cares if he's gay, I still hope a bull gores him"

Seems like it's hard to actually get banned unless you are a posting enemy of one of Musk's groupies. Like you can just cry about cancel culture or whatever and get reinstated.

The delorean used 304, which is food grade stainless, so the stuff used in kitchens, cafeterias, etc. easy to clean, very rust resistant, etc. Still very much not ideal for use on a vehicle.

The cybertruck uses 301. 301 is cheaper and has less galvanic resistance, with a slightly better impact performance, but the panels are so thick that does not matter. They cheaped out lmao.

reports seem to be 5-10 years (if some other issue doesn't total the car before then)

a friend of mine has a 2012-ish model s (he's not a Tesla guy but the kind of nerd that put together his own home solar setup to charge the car and tie back into his house etc) and his apparently is still good for 50-70% of the original range depending on if you need the heat/ac etc

Fascinating, spending so much money on a car and in 5-10 years you’re getting half the range you should be. Then you have to spend $20k or more I guess to install new batteries or get a new car. Very environmentally friendly.

I have no plan to ever get an electric vehicle with batteries.

yep, you throw them into the ocean (their home) and buy a new car

real talk though, imo most people that buy a tesla are not the kind of person that keeps a car for more than a couple years anyway. teslas are garbage intended to be thrown away after several years, but they're only barely worse than most other new cars, especially new evs

looking at the thread that article linked there's not actually any rust lol, it's just flecks from the factory or transport, and the op was told that they were all rusty as gently caress by his tesla guy??

Just making sure I understand, so tesla stock is rising because the company is incorporating in a different state so that the CEO can drain the company of 50 billion dollars, but also there's a significant chance it won't even work because if a shareholder sued again in Texas it'd go to a jury instead of some Delaware business friendly judge?
