Why thank you for finding these for me. I admit, I searched around a bit on Toyota's and Honda's sites and found no such warnings - just generic "make sure to wash your car every couple weeks." It's quite remarkable that you were able to pinpoint this information in such a short amount of time.
So, in the end, would you agree that the stainless steel finish is no more resistant to damage than a typical car? It's no more rugged or durable?
- Kirby64 3y agoDepends on how you quantify rugged or durable. It certainly seems far more resilient to dings/dents/scrapes, which the average car is definitely not resilient to currently. Whether it handles rusting/environmental conditions well seems TBD at this point. Probably worse for “looking nice” after a wash than the average car, but these things are so damn new I don’t want to pass judgment yet.
- qarl 3y agoHaving to immediately wash bird poop off my car doesn't seem rugged or durable to me. I guess we'll just have to disagree on this subtle point.
- Kirby64 3y agoYou’re focusing on a statement from the owners manual that’s no different than any other car with paint, though. You gotta look at the whole picture. Is a ford bronco rugged? What about a jeep wrangler? How about a rivian? Cause every single one of those will look like hell if you drive it off road and have it scrape against tree branches or something. I suspect the cybertruck panels would be substantially more resistant to trail striping… which is a huge plus in the durability/ruggedness side in my book.
