Cybertruck engineer pushes back on claims that Tesla EVs rust in the rain — “It’s surface contamination only and can be cleaned off easily.”::A Cybertruck engineer, Wes Morrill, addressed claims Tesla’s truck rusts in the rain and said the specks of rust were the size of a “pinhead.”

      It happens, and it’s a very sad sight indeed.

      Edit: Yeah, that one is a fake. Sorry about that.

      Doing an image search, there are a lot of real ones in various states of decay or oxidization. Certainly takes a lot more time (and straight up abandonment) for a DeLorean to show damage.

        Yeah but like outside of this AI image have you ever seen a rusty DeLorean?

          You just have to think fourth-dimensionally.

      Have you ever seen a rusty Cybertruck? All this talk is based off one single forum post from an owner who didn’t even know what he was photographing.

      That’s because the Deloreans you do see are typically pristinely restored. LOTS of Deloreans had rust.
