    The most American made vehicle ever

    I am not surprised that someone who bought a Cybertruck is wholly unaware of the entire first half of the 20th century.

    To be fair, it looks like it would look cooler if you took all the panels off. Probably would not help with longevity, but might be less likely to get arsoned.

      ngl, if it had this aesthetic, I might have to change my opinion on them:

      If I saw one of these with the panels removed; I’d take the opportunity to cut the wire harnesses a few dozen times.

        Don’t just cut it, take a section of the harness out (especially a split or junction). Much more of a pain to splice in a new section than to just reconnect some split wires.

        or uh… don’t do crime. Vandalism bad.

      The cybertruck can’t handle water. In this state, a bit of rain can brick the vehicle.

      Maybe with the panels removed it can dry after a car wash.

      It was. I believe the price dropped to $80k. Still a giant waste of money, but that would be true for basically any price point.

    Don’t forget that the frame is made out of aluminum , so the more repeated stress you put on the frame, the weaker it gets. I’ve seen the frame literally break from towing something. It is a truly awful vehicle.

    There’s plenty of plastic on steel, or steel trim mounted to plastic, in other trucks that aren’t “100% US made.” That’s just how it works. Plastic is light, easily moldable, and doesn’t rust. Of course it’s going to be used to build cars. I don’t see wha anyone is surprised that the swastidumpster is any different.

    There’s not supposed to be a frame there. Pull the side panel off a GM and it’s the same.

    The frame is under the truck. There should be a rigid structure on the flat of the bed.

      It’s unibody, the waffle-like part in the picture between the rear glass and the wheel well is part of it’s frame

        hilariously, the frame is very thin in places and could be bent with a crescent wrench.

      This has clearly been disassembled. You can see the bed which means both the interior and exterior RR panels are removed.

          They’ve got a point.

          Austria gave us WW1, WW2, and Austrian economics.

          They are objectively the baddies.

    Musk built the Cybertruck in his own image: not just the shape echoing his weirdly angular physique, but its construction representing the substance backing his sensational claims. That thing is as solid as his charter cities on Mars.

    American made is just a fancy way to say that the rear quarter panel will rust and fall off within the first month of ownership.
