I hate the Cybertruck as much as the next guy, but all of the photos I saw were wraps.

I removed the photo link. The rust issue has been widely reported and I have seen it first hand.

Bonus issue: Tesla's new and improved 4680 battery cells.

Lots of other sources regarding the production difficulties and performance issues with this "revolutionary" new battery. Feel free to find some of these and share.

Here is a teaser to get you started:

Tesla positioned the 4680 battery as a foundational breakthrough, promising lower costs, longer range, and manufacturing simplicity.

Over time, progress failed to match the original narrative, making the gap between ambition and execution increasingly difficult to ignore.

Bonus issue: Tesla's battery manufacturing operation is dumping toxic metals into the environment.

I mean rust thing. Has _any_ CT actually rusted or it was just couple of millimeters of contamination from external sources?
