New Tesla Cybertruck owners might want to wash winter road grime off their pickup as soon as possible.
Tesla has not yet shared the Cybertruck’s owner’s manual publicly, but in two videos posted online, the apparent guide says that the Cybertruck’s stainless-steel exterior lacks “a clear coat on the surface of the exterior body panels, meaning scratches that appear are in the stainless steel panels themselves.”
The guide shown in the videos also says: “To prevent damage to the exterior, immediately remove corrosive substances (such as grease, oil, bird droppings, tree resin, dead insects, tar spots, road salt, industrial fallout, etc.)”
Manuals for other Tesla models also advise immediate removal of corrosive substances — but “to prevent damage to the paint,” rather than the exterior metal itself.
There wouldn’t be a salty winter in a post apocalypse would there? Like who’s going to be out salting the roads after the collapse of civilisation.
Salt is the least of it’s problem
Maybe not, but spending too much time near the coast lines could do it.
no. climate change means instability - like the crazy winter storms we’ve seen this year so far. the polar vortex destabilizes and sends winter weather far outside the polar region. https://www.pbs.org/newshour/science/why-extreme-cold-weather-events-still-happen-in-a-warming-world
There wouldn’t be a salty winter in an post-apocalyptic world, because nobody would care to spice the streets. Otherwise I agree.
plausible.
We don’t actually know. It’s possible that winter becomes the norm on most of the planet if we muck up Earth enough. Mother Nature will not be defeated by us mere humans.
Technically teslas will die before any other vehicle because of electricity.
eeeh, this depends on which peters out first - their access to power or gasoline. power can theoretically be generated at home via solar and battery storage so…
don’t disagree with the overall premise tho.
