Oh wow, it’s actually made from stainless steel and not some shitty mild steel. I should get me one, this would be a lifesaver in Michigan

Stainless steel still rusts when exposed to salt and water.

The stainless in the cyber truck is 301, which is less corrosion resistant than 304 or 316. You can read all about stainless corrosion in Appendix A.

Until you got a dent and had to replace an entire panel at a huge cost.

Yeah the point is that if you care about denting it, something is wrong with your choice of tools, not the tool you chose.

Or just treat it like a real truck and give zero fucks about the dents.

Let’s be real, if you want an EV and a real truck, you’re going to buy an F-150 Lightning, Silverado EV, or RAM EV and get a truck that’s at least somewhat compatible with normal truck accessories, and has a service network that’s not going to just offer you Uber credits when you need to get to a jobsite

How are you going to treat it like a real truck? You can’t load anything on it.

Anyone who is going to spend that much on a truck is going to care about the dents.
