    The CT is stainless steel and doesn’t rust. When transported it can get iron on it, then the iron rusts. Washes off with barkeepers friend.

      It is actually not stainless steel. Stainless would be austhentic steel. Tesla changes that into martensitic steel. That is extremely hard and still flexible but not stainless any more.

    Two things I discovered that no one told me about: 1-There is another button to the right of the horn to turn on the lower front camera. 2-In the back doors at the bottom is a cable to open each door in case of a power failure--just lift up the little plastic cover. Fun to watch others feeling like kids again. Thx for sharing.

    iIf you get the truck wrapped you loose one of the best features. I can take my CyberTruck and park it anywhere in a Walmart parking lot. They cannot door ding it or cart scratch it. I even had a guy hit me in his old dodge truck while parking next to me. I got out surly expecting some scratches. NOTHING! He lost a little chrome off his bumper but that was it.

    John, I think the "rust" is from the contaminants in the egvironment not the SS (304 austinitic likely). Frequently the SS is passivated to remove the contaminants (frequently iron). I believe you were talking about Aluminum where the Al oxide (rust) is nonpermiable to O2. Also, you are quite right about wrapping and problems with differential O2 cells formed.

    Congratulations! I'm jealous. If the wrap stopped oxygen rust would not be possible without oxygen (oxidization is rust) that is literally how paint prevents rust. That being said the rust they're talking about is surface contamination that can also affect a wrap. Our wrap currently has tiny rust spots on it but the wrap is not rusting..

    The brake rotors are made of iron so they will create iron dust along with all the other vehicles on the road. The rust is likely this iron dust rusting.

      It is actually not stainless steel. Tesla changes that from austhenitic - the stainless steel you know - to martensitic which is not stainless but extremly hard and durable. Your kitchen sink maybe austhenitic steel but is more likely a much softer and more durable chrome vanadium steel alloy.

    What we know as rust on steel is a form of oxidation. When stainless steel oxidizes the it produces chromium oxide in nanoseconds. The creation of the passive layer (rust protection) is way to fast to allow iron oxide rust to form. However poorly done welding or possibly heat coloring the stainless can allow iron oxide aka rust.
    The question is salt. This maybe a nothing burger or it maybe essential. Online material is not consistent. If it were my truck I would protect it if I lived in areas where roads are salted or maybe near a beach. If rust starts to from sanding it back to expose the shiny stainless will restore the protection. Don't try this at home. Not a body repair expert. Follow this advice at your own risk.,
