“It does suck, because everybody kind of makes fun of the Cybertruck. To the outside person, it’s kind of weird, it’s ugly, whatever. Once you actually get in it, drive it, you realize it’s pretty frickin’ cool,” he says. “It’s kind of been sad, because I’ve been trying to prove to people that it’s a really awesome truck that’s not falling apart, and then mine starts to fall apart, so it’s just… Yeah, it’s kind of unfortunate and sad.”
The correct glue in the correct amount with the correct pattern against the correct surface will be perfectly fine. That said, they should be bending the edges of the panels around to hold things in place. But I’m sure they’re not.
The type steel they used isn’t easily bendable. In fact, it’s a very expensive process just to get the panels in the shape they are. You also have to replace a whole panel if it gets damaged. Instead of snapping / drilling things into place, I’m guessing this is why they just slap Elmer’s glue on with " the highest quality allowed by law" (Tesla’s words) 3M blue tape. It’s $100k for a reason, but a reason that creates maximum turd polishing for people that bought it.
