Except the panels fit quite well if you see one in person. They don't rust either. EV haters like to say all sorts of crap and no, people that buy them don't necessarily care if they are saving the planet either, but they do like to save their wallets when it comes to maintenance and gas.

Maybe if they spent a few extra dollars on a better grade of stainless steel instead of the light show, it wouldn't be rusting. Out where I come from in Arizona, we call this "stupid money".
@@anthonyxuereb792 All steel can rust, it depends on the corrosive agent it contacts, either its water, blood or ferric chloride. Stainless steel has some resistance to rust depending of the grade but it's not stain proof. My guess is those panels are made from some low grade stainless with low chromium content or high carbon %.
Between the Frunk and the Instrument Panel you’ll find the Heat Pump system, a variety of low voltage control systems, safety systems, autopilot and infotainment, the front motor(s), vents and air filtration, and did you say there was air suspension? That takes up space and has a compressor, somewhere. It all adds up!
I do like it, except for this. But I do like it, except for this. I do like the ride, except for the uncontrolled braking. Sounds like he's trying to convince himself he's not a 'tard.
If you buy a bottle of phosphoric acid, just wipe it on the stainless wherever there are rust stains, leave it 15 minutes and then wipe it off. I use it on my boat and it just wipes away.
They need to grain the sheet metal, then passivate it, then shoot a clear over it. In the nuclear industry, press brake tools are wrapped, welding tables are covered with stainless, and everything is passivated. It's the only way to keep stainless from rusting due to ferrous metal contamination.
Indeed, it looks so damn Cheap to make, no bodycurvs or nothing... Lets hope the " Gaps" are some what better on this one, must be very easy to line up the panels at least xD
I heard the bed has to remain up while driving as the brakes lights etc the license plate cannot be seen to the traffic behind you. There goes the truck element to it.
Yeah, the DeLorean is mechanically a piece of crap but at least it looks cool and has attained iconic status in film & modern culture. The Cyber Truck seriously looks like it was built from direct reference to a sketch drawn by a 3yr old who was handed a crayon and a piece of cardboard to play with.
My stainless-steel knives have rust on them sometimes... it's not the stainless rusting, it's other metal or material contaminating it. A Scotch Bright pad makes it go away. Whereas parts made from regular steel rust through and you can't buff it out. Also, my experience with getting my Model Y was great and yours with getting the CT is not typical just for some context. It's a new product and it's not fully ramped yet.
So you waited 5 years for this product, paid 40k more than you were told you had to, it has rust on it already and the customer service at the "dealer" was rude? What the fuck...
I know, for $100+k, I’d expect the red carpet laid out for me. I can’t believe people are paying that much for so little. It’s the most basic looking interior I’ve ever seen.
@@Chris-cb9ln No, Elon did. When it first was announced he told us the Cybertruck would have a 500 mile range and cost $60,000. I’m an Elon Musk supporter but he flat out lied about those numbers.
“As far as the gaps and things it’s pretty good” 😂😂 the panel alignment was off at that rust section and the panel gaps appear to be a consistent width of a river 😂😂 Any car marker with those panel gaps would be laughed at.
@@TheNuzzman - riiiight, so because you Mustang has inconsistent panel gaps, that’s ’normal’ for US vehicles? 🤣 I suggest stick with Jap/Korean/German cars, the. You would understand the attention to detail required for making cars….
Ironically, most full-size, top-trim ICE trucks have a video screen/camera in the rear view mirror. They don't need it, but they have it. The cybertruck needs it, but instead of adding this cool piece of tech in an obvious place where people could use it, they put the rear view camera image on the center screen...with the 482 other things that all have to go through that screen. Stupid decision.
Do Not try the self driving mode. Seen cybertruck owners around here nearly running people down like in a movie. You are going to run into random carts in the parking lot, into trees and poles, bikes, and possibly pedestrians. Bad news. And don't accidentally get your fingers caught in the truck or hood or door.
you cant go self driving mode. it doesnt exist for this product yet. interesting you've seen people nearly mowed down by something that doesnt exist yet.
@@GudieveNing Absolutely correct, no FSD in Cybertruck yet. But if he can't find something bad to say he will simply make it up! But weirdkitty07 is correct in one thing, slamming the door on your finger in a Cybertruck would hurt, unlike slamming the door on your finger in any other car!
Actually, as a pick-up driver for the past thirty+ years, I am greatly offended by referring to this thing as a "truck". I can't imagine anyone would really put dirt, gravel, manure, lumber, etc into it.
Elon Musk is a snake oil salesman. In order to get gullible fools to buy this POS he had to change the definition of "truck". You & your truck are now considered dinosaurs therefor all dinosaurs are obsolete. I'd challenge anyone to a head to head match up between their brand new CyberJunk and a 20 year old Ford F250. Towing, payload capacity, off road capability etc. People will complain that it's not a fair comparison but I say if you're going to call that abortion a truck it better perform like a real one.
They didn't want you to have it brand new in freezing weather. You'll see why in about 6 months - when everything can be blamed on you because it's been "working fine" until you got your hands on it.
How do you get type approval with all those corners and hard thin edges, they are not pedestrian friendly given the level of litigation you get in the USA. Also note that just because it’s made of stainless steel it does not mean that it cannot rust, just like cutlery and sinks etc, if you have surface contamination on it long enough the chromium oxide passive layer breaks down and hey presto … rust. Leave it dirty or contaminated long enough an the metal crystals in the surface will fall out leaving pitting on the surface.
Yep, it's only interesting because it looks weird... But the novelty has certainly worn off. I think sales will drop off once the people who bought them for the hype start selling them and the market is flooded. Like the H2, it was super hyped up when it came out, and then no one cares about it a few years later.
They need to build a more rounded version There are way too many sharp edges to get cut on! And i would hate to get a dent as it would be costly to fix! No bondo and paint could fix it... One thing for sure, you would be getting your exercise parking all alone way out front to prevent door dings!
Hi Tyler, Steve Magnante here. I think Tesla needs to do an exclusive run of Merrimack Editions, then follow them with Monitor Editions! They'd surely be IRON CLAD collectibles! -Steve Magnante
I saw one of these exact same model Tesla’s last night, May 8.. I was behind it leaving a baseball game. My wife noted how little view the driver has because of the angle of the rear window. It is almost horizontal… actually, seeing it in person from all angles, I was surprised at how stark the styling is..basically flat panels.. looks almost like something a first grader would draw with crayons in art class..
Dude, what were you thinking? With the reception at Tesla you received, I would have walked. Guessing you can put it up for sale, not sure anybody with CZcams would buy. Picked up my new BMW M4 yesterday. The Genius guy, spent 21/2 hours with my introduction to the car.
@14:53 "...but as far as people making fun of the gaps and things, they're actually pretty good; everything looks well lined up on this truck...". Rewind a couple of minutes earlier (and also at the very beginning just seven seconds into the video) when Hoovie is zooming-in to point out the rust patch on the edge of the fender panel, and we clearly see that the edge of the fender he is highlighting out is alarmingly out of vertical alignment by at least 1/8" with the corresponding edge of the A-pillar it runs up to.
It looks like a gull-wing aluminium checkerplate toolbox. Like........WTF did they design it that way? Is there even any cargo space in there somewhere? It tortures my eyes. 💩🙈
This is what I don't understand. Any other manufacturers, this sort of quality would be unacceptable, especially at this proce point. When are people going to start holding Tesla accountable. They are quick and literally nothing else. Their tech is way behind, their quality is beyond a joke, and the design is just different and nothing else. These vehicles are one the level of the Mitsubishi Mirage. Such crap.
...have you met the fans of Tesla? Listen to any of them, and you'll know exactly why "Super genius Musk can do no wrong", these people are as bad as flat earthers.
Steady now. I'm in the UK and many years ago owned a first generation Mitsubishi Colt (Mirage in the US) and it was both practical and reliable. Plus, I could easily get spare parts from a Mitsubishi main dealer for very reasonable cost even though it was going on fifteen years old. Will anyone be able to say the same for a Cybertruck? I agree with your main point though: everyone seems to expect a low level of quality and willfully ignore it because it has a Tesla badge nailed on the front of it.
@@danielkim1527 take it down a notch dude. I can certainly afford a cyber truck and I agree with that Ryan guy, this thing is ugly as sin and the Build quality for the price point is fucking absurd.

6 month ago, I bought an electric car. It runs well and the AWD is marvelous in the hellish Norwegian winter. We like driving the car. The wife in particular. Mostly I only get my hands on it for wash and cleaning. I have no doubt that it'll be a car that will depreciate a lot. As I say to my wife: "Lets earn som new money. That will solve the problem".
Most people don’t understand stainless steel, stainless steel doesn’t rust unless it has surface contamination such as ferrous metal dust from another source lands on it, this will start to permanently mark the stainless steel. But separately, stainless steel will tarnish, this is just the stainless steel dulling over time due to other surface contamination but is not actually damaging the metal, stainless steel hand railings and boat fitting will tarnish, this can easily be polished out. Bottom line, everyone who has one of these truck should accept that you will be doing a lot of polishing every day with wax to stop it tarnishing, just because it’s stainless steel doesn’t mean you can be lazy about looking after its appearance.
Stainless steel can rust it depends on the grade. The softer the stainless generally the more corrosion resistant, Hard stainless can develop surface rust but won't rust through like iron or steel.

@@anthonyxuereb792it was a joke
@@21cabbvge Thank God for that as I took it seriously, stainless steel shouldn't rust right?
@@anthonyxuereb792 All steel can rust, it depends on the corrosive agent it contacts, either its water, blood or ferric chloride.
Stainless steel has some resistance to rust depending of the grade but it's not stain proof. My guess is those panels are made from some low grade stainless with low chromium content or high carbon %.
Looks like a "truck of the future" from a low-budget 70s sci-fi movie!
And just as functional.
Damnation Alley
Actually the Truck design was a drawing that Elons young kid made of a car lol 😆 😆
That was kinda the point lol
That’s why I want one
Between the Frunk and the Instrument Panel you’ll find the Heat Pump system, a variety of low voltage control systems, safety systems, autopilot and infotainment, the front motor(s), vents and air filtration, and did you say there was air suspension? That takes up space and has a compressor, somewhere. It all adds up!
Whenever I feel bad that I got into collecting pocket knives, I remember that there are people who bought a Cyber truck.
What you're actually feeling is called... buyers remorse
No maintenance RIGHT ..... TESLA TURD
First time on Hoovie’s channel?
@@ItzzzBeamo fair question
I do like it, except for this. But I do like it, except for this. I do like the ride, except for the uncontrolled braking.
Sounds like he's trying to convince himself he's not a 'tard.
I've got sympathy buyer's remorse for him.
My grandmother used to say "a fool and his money are soon parted".
Some people are just loaded and don't really fall under that umbrella.
Soon partying 🎉
@@zoltrix7779 If that were true in his case, he would have paid cash.
If you buy a bottle of phosphoric acid, just wipe it on the stainless wherever there are rust stains, leave it 15 minutes and then wipe it off. I use it on my boat and it just wipes away.
They need to grain the sheet metal, then passivate it, then shoot a clear over it.
In the nuclear industry, press brake tools are wrapped, welding tables are covered with stainless, and everything is passivated. It's the only way to keep stainless from rusting due to ferrous metal contamination.
When Hoovie says it's "the dumbest purchase I've made in a very long time," that is saying something.
First time?
At least he is honest.
nah arguably this is the worst.
is he maybe the dumbest ??? just ask :-)
Don't see how anything could top the Fisker Karma but sure
Hoovie the Star Trek jacket is more impressive
AGREE
Picard's Captain's jacket. He influenced its design as he found the normal uniform uncomfortable.
Indeed, it looks so damn Cheap to make, no bodycurvs or nothing... Lets hope the " Gaps" are some what better on this one, must be very easy to line up the panels at least xD
I also agree screw that truck
The “ red shirts” have the highest mortality rate!😳
I heard the bed has to remain up while driving as the brakes lights etc the license plate cannot be seen to the traffic behind you. There goes the truck element to it.
Love your Star Trek jacket....Night Rider!
My two main takeaways from this video as well 😂
"Everybody wants one!"
If I wanted a stainless steel hoopty with shoddy build quality, I'd get a DeLorean...
Yeah, at least the Delorean looks good.
@@boundish1 exactly
Absolutely. That car is a legend. This thing is a kitchen sink.
He meant that every 8-year-old wants one.
Yeah, the DeLorean is mechanically a piece of crap but at least it looks cool and has attained iconic status in film & modern culture. The Cyber Truck seriously looks like it was built from direct reference to a sketch drawn by a 3yr old who was handed a crayon and a piece of cardboard to play with.
When the brief is 'how much divorced dad energy can we pack into a vehicle?'
😂 Perfect summation. All it's missing is a chesty secretary just a little past her prime.
My stainless-steel knives have rust on them sometimes... it's not the stainless rusting, it's other metal or material contaminating it. A Scotch Bright pad makes it go away. Whereas parts made from regular steel rust through and you can't buff it out. Also, my experience with getting my Model Y was great and yours with getting the CT is not typical just for some context. It's a new product and it's not fully ramped yet.
Hey that's cool a Fireplace on the Screen as it Burns to the Ground.
So you waited 5 years for this product, paid 40k more than you were told you had to, it has rust on it already and the customer service at the "dealer" was rude?
What the fuck...
I know, for $100+k, I’d expect the red carpet laid out for me. I can’t believe people are paying that much for so little. It’s the most basic looking interior I’ve ever seen.
None of us believed it would be a 500 mile range truck for $60,000 as Elon claimed it would.
@@user-vx7vi3vq1c Did you write down that prediction somewhere when this truck was announced with specs?
@@Chris-cb9ln No, Elon did. When it first was announced he told us the Cybertruck would have a 500 mile range and cost $60,000.
I’m an Elon Musk supporter but he flat out lied about those numbers.
Where did Hoovie say that the "dealer" was rude? I didn't hear that...
“As far as the gaps and things it’s pretty good” 😂😂 the panel alignment was off at that rust section and the panel gaps appear to be a consistent width of a river 😂😂
Any car marker with those panel gaps would be laughed at.
That's the kind of panel matching you'd get on an early Rover SD1. They rusted straight from the factory as well. 48 years of progress!
@@chinnyvision - I guess Tesla stole the wrong blueprints 😂
he has lost his mind
Well,I saw a video with the panel gaps on the 2024 Mustang,so all car makers do not make quality a priority,also paint bubbling on a new car.
@@TheNuzzman - riiiight, so because you Mustang has inconsistent panel gaps, that’s ’normal’ for US vehicles? 🤣
I suggest stick with Jap/Korean/German cars, the. You would understand the attention to detail required for making cars….
It almost caused a wreck driving up a hill but THANK GOD the OTHER DRIVER was paying attention lmaoo
It is surface rust. Nothing to worry about. It is the imperfections in the surface
In a world of a zillion Cybertruck videos Hoovie manages to make his entertaining enough to make me watch till the end. Kudos.
That’s our Hoovie wearing a Star Trek shirt!
Yeah Hoovie made it interesting and funny, he has that knack!
That’s true showmanship for you right there! That young man is gonna go places I tell ya! 🤣
First cybertruck I stuck more than 1 minute, Hoovie makes it fun
I watch almost all of his videos to the end. There's no one else like Hoovie.
Love that panel alignment above the rust
That's standard with almost every Tesla bought!
Why did Elon Musk manufacture a massive refrigerator that fits in people's garages 😂🤣👌💯
I do love how you can dice carrots closing the hood (bonnet).
Ironically, most full-size, top-trim ICE trucks have a video screen/camera in the rear view mirror. They don't need it, but they have it. The cybertruck needs it, but instead of adding this cool piece of tech in an obvious place where people could use it, they put the rear view camera image on the center screen...with the 482 other things that all have to go through that screen. Stupid decision.
My Chevy bolt euv for 20k has it….
Do Not try the self driving mode. Seen cybertruck owners around here nearly running people down like in a movie. You are going to run into random carts in the parking lot, into trees and poles, bikes, and possibly pedestrians. Bad news. And don't accidentally get your fingers caught in the truck or hood or door.
Cybertruck self driving, (Autopilot or FSD) isn't available yet.
@@GudieveNing. Seems to be the problem then.
Ssshhh don't tell him that. We want to see the video! :D
you cant go self driving mode. it doesnt exist for this product yet. interesting you've seen people nearly mowed down by something that doesnt exist yet.
@@GudieveNing Absolutely correct, no FSD in Cybertruck yet. But if he can't find something bad to say he will simply make it up! But weirdkitty07 is correct in one thing, slamming the door on your finger in a Cybertruck would hurt, unlike slamming the door on your finger in any other car!
Customer service? No way…. 🤦♂️had on my i4 1,5 hour introduction on pick up.. Sales guy was fully committed to explain everything to me.
Could you cancel the order when the price doubled, or were you forced to take it?
When I first saw the Cyber truck I thought, it must be a test mule! I never thought someone was dumb enough to put it into production. I was wrong!
It's like the Homer Car
Over 2 million pre-order reservations, figure at least 250k - 500k final orders, time will tell.
@@hiloviking It’s one of the ugliest vehicles I have ever seen. And how many people can afford a vehicle that costs $100K?
Since there are hundreds of thousands of people who are dumb enough to buy one, it made sense to put it into production.
Exactly what I thought but no…
Congrats on your 100K+ Pontiac Aztek.
Except the Aztek was actually fairly reliable.
That is an insult to Pontiac Azteks
God damn I see it now🤣
LOL
The Aztek looked way better.
Seems like Nevr-Dull would be good on any of those rust spots. Very cool truck.
How is it that a car that’s new have rust on it already? What did they do to it?
Actually, as a pick-up driver for the past thirty+ years, I am greatly offended by referring to this thing as a "truck". I can't imagine anyone would really put dirt, gravel, manure, lumber, etc into it.
Elon Musk is a snake oil salesman. In order to get gullible fools to buy this POS he had to change the definition of "truck". You & your truck are now considered dinosaurs therefor all dinosaurs are obsolete. I'd challenge anyone to a head to head match up between their brand new CyberJunk and a 20 year old Ford F250. Towing, payload capacity, off road capability etc. People will complain that it's not a fair comparison but I say if you're going to call that abortion a truck it better perform like a real one.
Same with those pavement princesses I see everywhere.
Someone could test how much it carries just by giving Musk an enema
Congrats, you discovered the target demographic this will be sold to
People call SUVs trucks all the time and it drives me nuts, lol
They didn't want you to have it brand new in freezing weather. You'll see why in about 6 months - when everything can be blamed on you because it's been "working fine" until you got your hands on it.
Ah, the Tesla truck with its myriad razor-like parts for "severing"-quite the unexpected feature! "love it" 😊
How do you get type approval with all those corners and hard thin edges, they are not pedestrian friendly given the level of litigation you get in the USA. Also note that just because it’s made of stainless steel it does not mean that it cannot rust, just like cutlery and sinks etc, if you have surface contamination on it long enough the chromium oxide passive layer breaks down and hey presto … rust. Leave it dirty or contaminated long enough an the metal crystals in the surface will fall out leaving pitting on the surface.
Everybody doesn’t want it.
The novelty of this truck is already wearing off.
The novelty wore off as soon as it was put on paper 😅
Yep, it's only interesting because it looks weird... But the novelty has certainly worn off.
I think sales will drop off once the people who bought them for the hype start selling them and the market is flooded. Like the H2, it was super hyped up when it came out, and then no one cares about it a few years later.
Yeah. And now it's only the most efficient electric truck with the largest bed, the most comfort and the best tech.. Oh no.
@@NO3V , efficient at what... making its way from one charging station to another?
@@stephaneperron727 turning provided energy into propulsion. I am not surprised the concept of efficiency is new to you.
They need to build a more rounded version
There are way too many sharp edges to get cut on! And i would hate to get a dent as it would be costly to fix! No bondo and paint could fix it...
One thing for sure, you would be getting your exercise parking all alone way out front to prevent door dings!

I saw one of these exact same model Tesla’s last night, May 8.. I was behind it leaving a baseball game. My wife noted how little view the driver has because of the angle of the rear window. It is almost horizontal…
actually, seeing it in person from all angles, I was surprised at how stark the styling is..basically flat panels.. looks almost like something a first grader would draw with crayons in art class..
are those ripples in the left rear quarter panel?

Dude, what were you thinking? With the reception at Tesla you received, I would have walked. Guessing you can put it up for sale, not sure anybody with CZcams would buy. Picked up my new BMW M4 yesterday. The Genius guy, spent 21/2 hours with my introduction to the car.
Wow this thing makes the pt cruiser and Pontiac Aztec look amazing
@14:53 "...but as far as people making fun of the gaps and things, they're actually pretty good; everything looks well lined up on this truck...". Rewind a couple of minutes earlier (and also at the very beginning just seven seconds into the video) when Hoovie is zooming-in to point out the rust patch on the edge of the fender panel, and we clearly see that the edge of the fender he is highlighting out is alarmingly out of vertical alignment by at least 1/8" with the corresponding edge of the A-pillar it runs up to.
It looks like a gull-wing aluminium checkerplate toolbox. Like........WTF did they design it that way? Is there even any cargo space in there somewhere?
It tortures my eyes. 💩🙈
On the plus side, you can probably trim hedges with it without any additional implements.
This thing must trigger so many mechanics and industrial designers. As in they're jealous that something this shoddily put together is $100,000.
yeah, I noticed that too.good eye
@@Thobeian
Jealous? Mystified.
This is what I don't understand. Any other manufacturers, this sort of quality would be unacceptable, especially at this proce point. When are people going to start holding Tesla accountable. They are quick and literally nothing else. Their tech is way behind, their quality is beyond a joke, and the design is just different and nothing else. These vehicles are one the level of the Mitsubishi Mirage. Such crap.
...have you met the fans of Tesla? Listen to any of them, and you'll know exactly why "Super genius Musk can do no wrong", these people are as bad as flat earthers.
Steady now. I'm in the UK and many years ago owned a first generation Mitsubishi Colt (Mirage in the US) and it was both practical and reliable. Plus, I could easily get spare parts from a Mitsubishi main dealer for very reasonable cost even though it was going on fifteen years old. Will anyone be able to say the same for a Cybertruck?
I agree with your main point though: everyone seems to expect a low level of quality and willfully ignore it because it has a Tesla badge nailed on the front of it.
Stretch…domestic (US) market vehicles are known to be trash quality through and through for decades. This is nothing out of the ordinary.
@@danielkim1527 take it down a notch dude. I can certainly afford a cyber truck and I agree with that Ryan guy, this thing is ugly as sin and the

That’s why we are ALL here!
“No serious issues” after you said it emergency brakes on steep hills is wild.
In all fairness, Stellantis products have been doing that since 2022 haha. My work van will switch units then panic stop if someone in the next lane turns anywhere without a signal

6 month ago, I bought an electric car. It runs well and the AWD is marvelous in the hellish Norwegian winter. We like driving the car. The wife in particular. Mostly I only get my hands on it for wash and cleaning. I have no doubt that it'll be a car that will depreciate a lot. As I say to my wife: "Lets earn som new money. That will solve the problem".
Most people don’t understand stainless steel, stainless steel doesn’t rust unless it has surface contamination such as ferrous metal dust from another source lands on it, this will start to permanently mark the stainless steel.
But separately, stainless steel will tarnish, this is just the stainless steel dulling over time due to other surface contamination but is not actually damaging the metal, stainless steel hand railings and boat fitting will tarnish, this can easily be polished out.
Bottom line, everyone who has one of these truck should accept that you will be doing a lot of polishing every day with wax to stop it tarnishing, just because it’s stainless steel doesn’t mean you can be lazy about looking after its appearance.
I'd imagine brake dust would be a real problem with these things
Stainless steel can rust it depends on the grade. The softer the stainless generally the more corrosion resistant, Hard stainless can develop surface rust but won't rust through like iron or steel.
Yippie, you can buy a 100k daily chore
It's not "never stain" it is "stain less." A big difference that most folks don't realize.
Hmm, I wonder how a TRUCK would ever be exposed to surface contamination
It's a refrigerator
Refrigerators are rectangle.
This is more of a scalene triangle.
😂😂😂😂w
Nah. Fridges are cool.😂
A very angry refrigerator.
Refrigerator on wheels lol
I’ll give this a thumbs up for the algorithm, not for the dumb truck. Hoovie, you’re awesome, and love the realness of your approach on this vehicle.
