    Good thing, too, because that cheap sombitch will rust to all hell if exposed to the elements.

      No it doesn’t. It’s made of 300-series stainless steel which is highly resistant to rusting. Left out for the elements long enough it would be among the last vehicles in the world with something still left of the body. It’ll probably even outlive Chevrolet Corvette which is made of fibreglass.

      The rust you hear about is not the body that is rusting. It’s iron particles in the air, mostly from brake rotors, called “fallout” that lands on the bare steel causing a chemical reaction which causes it to rust. That iron particle that is, not the stainless steel. It’s surface contamination that can be cleaned off. There’s no damage to the body itself.
