What's the point of using more expensive stainless steel just to wrap or paint it anyway? I mean cheap metal car frames are currently painted with high tech layers of paint specifically designed to protect the metal underneath for as long as possible. Elon, like always, tries to fix something that isn't broken and makes it worse. Everything Elon makes is just shit version of something people already invented.

I'm looking at 20-30 year old pick ups online and most have a little rust in the wheel wells but that's it. The body and frames of these old trucks hold up quite well. So explain why a new Cyber Truck is going to have more rust on it than a 1999 Ford F-150 that has faded paint but no rust on the body? Make that make sense for me please.

So elon doesn't ever need to be intelligent or offer a good product he just needs to offer a different product and blame all his failings on some bullshit like the failures actually reveals his innovation.
Most people will sell you a product that will eventually break because making it better it outside of their financial interests in fact it's actually illegal for them to care about the consumers because they are obligated to make shareholders as much money as reasonably possible.

They are too strong as they are.
Part of the reason they had such a long FAA investigation after the first flight is because the flight termination system failed to immediately end the flight once it was determined the rocket wasn't making it to orbit.
The FTS blew a giant hole in the rocket immediately on command, but it still remained in one piece as it tumbled end to end for almost a minute. eventually enough fuel mixed and ignited to end it.

So you have the option to do what you want with it instead of being restricted just to whatever the manufacturer offers. Most manufacturers don't offer this ability to choose for yourself and some people still get a wrap on their vehicle or paint it a different color than what came on it. Perhaps even more would if they had the option to do so. This presumes, perhaps incorrectly since I have checked, that doing so doesn't invalidate the body warranty but at least in the US, the law strongly favors the buyer when it comes to aftermarket modifications to automobiles.

WDYM, there are plenty of options to mitigate and slow down oxidation reactions, it's a question of how much are you willing to spend. Easiest is material change, although I doubt there will be that much rusting issues so long as he actually used 304 stainless in lieu of some cheaper SS alternative like 410/420. I think 316 is slightly more resilient to corrosion too, from there, metallic materials become radically more expensive with nickel, copper based, and titanium alloys being three "affordable" options, could also look at anodized aluminum but IMO that material is hot garbage for mechanical properties. Could also offer a few options like nickel electroplating on the stainless steel which would make it very unlikely to ever corrode. If you want a cheaper cost alternative, could look at phosphate (or oil impregnated Black oxide which is even cheaper and lower quality) too if you don't mind black coatings.

No joke, get your hands on a nitric/phosphoric acid blend, dilute it down to 2%, then “passivate” cyber truck owners fucked up exteriors. Anyone with any knowledge of how passivation works knows that it makes stainless steel IMMEDIATELY shiny and protects it by restoring the chromium layer. You can make a stainless steel tank go from opaque trash to like new almost instantly. Charge these retards 1000 dollars and watch them marvel at how “YOU MADE IT LOOK BETTER THAN IT WAS BEFORE!”

Of course care would need to be taken not to corrode non-compatible areas of the vehicle, but thats nothing a little plastic sheeting cant fix. Charge 1000 a pop and youll be good to go.

Japan's economics are different. They use increasingly large taxes on older vehicles to strongly motivate Japanese to buy new vehicles frequently. The used cars are rarely sold domestically but instead are shipped out of the country to be sold in developing countries where they command a good price due to used Japanese vehicles being in good shape. Japanese automobile makers don't need to use planned obsolescence because government tax policy does that for them. Instead the value of the used cars being sold outside the economy helps support domestic purchases of new vehicles continuously.
In a country like the US, the tax policy is the opposite, with heavy taxes on new vehicles that decline to nearly nothing on old vehicles. This makes it easier for low income people to afford them but also undermines the market for new vehicles. Adding in planned obsolescence helps bring some of that market back to new vehicles.

I really like old Japanese cars. They rust like nothing else though. The solution is to:
-wash your car frequently, even in the cold. The brine used today can destroy your clear coat.
-wax your car. The wax or ceramic coat will serve as a sacrificial layer.
-spray fluid film on every non-painted surface and inside every cavity(framerail, quarter panels, rocker panels, fenders, wheel wells, control arms)
-use stainless or aluminum components when something has to be replaced, such as exhaust, brake lines, tension rods, control arms, etc.
-keep drain holes clean
-spray boeshield T9 on bolts and fasteners, use galvanized fasteners when possible.

You can keep cars 99.99% rust free just following these easy steps, and keep driving your 30 year old car in the winter with no issue.
Aluminum frames will still get fucked up by salt, as seen on audis, and even if they didn't, their capability to stand up to frame stress is not on par with steel, ad the frame will be worn out before a steel one rusts to an ineffective level.

These will not work on cars in the same manner, as there is no sea water to serve as the electrolyte, just air.

Its 100% possible to keep a car daily driven on salt roads and in great rust free condition, bit it takes work. Most people treat their cars like a toaster or a tv, not tue complex machine it is.

These are basic things so I guess I should also tell you that you should inspect the brake and fuel lines for rust damage. If they look good, spray them in fluid film every fall. If they are rubber, replace them with braided stainless steel at your soonest convenience. A set of braided hoses should only run you 100 bucks, are an easy DIY, and will keep your brakes in proper working order. Rubber hoses will be destroyed in a few years by calcium chlorate exposure.
Unless you go off road, modern all seasons are perfectly fine. I live in Central Michigan and have never used snow tires.

>why would it be?
Because a major marketing point of the cyber truck is the fact it's using the same materials as starship

Not that the material is super special either way (both are 301)

I don’t like the cybertruck but I do believe the mild rust will give them an amazing weathered look that collectors will be gushing over for decades to come. I think this is actually a feature. It’s not really gonna effect experience

This is like asking why companies don't sell working games. Cause then they wouldn't be able to lock patches behind DLC.
Don't want braindead AI? Want finished quests? Want functional balance? Better fork out $40.

It's hilarious, isn't it? Especially since it's a far left school full of crazies screaming about the white patriarchy keeping them down but then they do things like that pic and can't understand why their cargo cult actions don't magically make new inventions appear (along with lots of money, which is capitalism, which they hate, but still want).

One constant I've found in every loser I've met over my life is the fear of failure. The one constant I've found in ever successful person I've met is the willingness to try something, fail at it, learn from it, and try again and again until either successful or learning that the task isn't currently possible for reasons other than fear of failure.

Reading up on the rust issue, pretty much every other board and media source has concluded that it's surface rust that easily wipes off and not something that's going to degrade the body during our lifetimes. Like any new product, the Cybertruck is going to have issues. Tesla's other vehicles certainly have had plenty of them but so has the first generation of about any automobile by any company. Always wait until the second or even better, third generation of a vehicle before buying one. That goes for most tech too. Let someone else work out the bugs.
