The stainless body is not good for cars because if you get in an accident, the stainless panels will not crumple, which is needed so the panels will remove some of the energy instead of you taking the brunt of the accident force. Also, the "jaws of life" can't cut through stainless metal, so the emergency crew would not be able to get you out of the car, and every second is important is you were bleeding.

Most stainless steel I have seen on "big box" store brands of home appliances is pretty thin and low quality. It is not Sub Zero, Wolf, Miele, quality.

You don't see many refrigerators with stainless steel interiors either.

Generally, pickup trucks are designed to sell the macho image, have unneeded massive grills and their hood height swallows small cars and pedestrians right in front of the truck, making them essentially invisible to the driver. The cybertruck follows the trend of "I do not give a rats a** about OTHER road users. You want to be safe? Drive a bigger pickup truck!" It is a short-sighted attitude that kills hundreds of people unnecessarily every single year. The cybertruck is merely accelerating the arms race on the road.

I remember there being something about the Rivian being extremely expensive to repair. There was someone who got a damaged back fender and the repair was said to cost a lot. Don't remember the details, but effectively the repair involved replacing a very large part, a about 20% of the skin. Some one managed to cut out the damaged part and weld in a replacement. Some paint and it was as new, and a lot cheaper than the official quote from Rivian. Now if it had been stainless things would not be as "simple". Experts can do a fantastic welding of stainless, I've seen it. But it takes a lot more than being comfortable with a TIG to make it invisible on a plain steel surface. Actually I'm not sure it's possible. Swapping the whole panel would be the only option and quite expensive.

@shadeburst 5 ай бұрын

Galvanizing is good at rust prevention, up to a point. Not everyone is going to keep a car on the road for forty years, like a collectible 911 or Corvette for example. The zinc coating on galvanized steel works on the sacrifice principle and when it has given up all its ions, rust can now go to work on the underlying steel. In a world where cars get scrapped after five years because they won't pass the roadworthiness test, stainless steel seems like unnecessary overkill. But let the consumer decide.

Many of the car accidents from 1980 or before involved more neck injuries due to the increased mass of the steel bodies. However as this is a niche vehicle safety standards aren't as high in the minds. Look how many celebrities have wrapped their Porsche around a tree.

I think the other issue that could come up with this truck is the danger of those that let the truck battery deplete to unsafe levels thus being locked into a tank or if a malfunction happens with the battery what do you do? One Tesla caught on fire with the driver inside and he had to break the glass to get out, how do you get out of a tank with a raging inferno about to start underneath you?

A couple things: Deloreans were built using a lot of fiberglass in the construction(like a corvette) of the body with stainless steel covering it all. The Cybertruck isn't even that safe for the occupants as the sturdy and rigid construction results in a lack of crumple zones. If you have an accident, all that kinetic energy needs to go somewhere, of the frame of the car isnt absorbing it, then the passengers will have to in stead.

unlike other stainless steel cars they don't use space-grade stainless steel there is a pretty difference between the grade of stainless steel used between the DeLorean and the Cyber truck.

The original point of the stainless steel was to support a minimalist exobody construction that would lower production costs. In the end, they didn't get it - it ended up being a (mostly) unibody design anyway.

No, the original idea behind using SS was to be edgy and make a statement. Anyone who has worked with any production will tell you that painted mild steel is way cheaper.. This is pure Musk - form before function.

If it crumples less that must also mean less shock absorbtion for passangers in an accident, doesn’t it?

A truck is supposed to be practical and something used for work for the most part. I know I use mine for commuting but I also use it for hauling stuff sometimes on the weekend. The Cyber truck is simply a vanity item

@Gringorican 5 ай бұрын

Most trucks are vanity items tho. Almost no one really needs to tow 10000lbs or carry 1500 on an open bed. Yet the Ford F150 has been the most sold vehicle in the USA for multiple decades. People here want practical but also equate minivans (an actually practical vehicle) with getting their balls chopped off... Fragile masculinity is so real here it's ridiculous 🙄

@giansideros 4 ай бұрын

Couldn't you commute in a smaller, more fuel efficient vehicle and keep the truck for when you actually need it?

@grahamsiebring5227 3 ай бұрын

Kills me that people say the Cybertruck is impractical and yet drive a gas guzzling truck to work for no reason. the Cybertruck costs about 5-6 cents per mile to drive, but an F150 (assuming $3.50/gallon and 17.5 miles/gallon) cost 20 cents per mile. That is almost 4 TIMES more expensive to drive PLUS more maintenance. Many people buy fancy supped up F150s for 60-70K (not that different from a dual motor Cybertruck). When you do the math, the cybertruck just makes more sense. Only exception being those who need to tow. EV trucks just cannot do that long distances. But honestly how many people buy a truck for that purpose? @@giansideros

This does not include the rusting problems that starts within 10 days of ownership. You MUST detail-clean the truck. If its washed outside in the sunlight will damage the panels. $5000+ for a wrap may help, but that will also hide rust. Oils, dirt, bird droppings MUST be cleaned off the CT ASAP or it'll stain. So it needs to be kept indoors.
