This... actually makes sense. But I think the stakes are higher with brushed steel. And when it comes to lampooning bad decisions in car design, Cybertruck is in good company with DeLorean which had similar issues and enjoyed a similar comedic reception.
- _ea1k 3y agoThere are a few DeLoreans in my area. They look really nice. I've owned one before, the finish was a little finnicky and very fingerprint prone, but ultimately held up better than painted finishes from the era. The plastics on them tended to degrade pretty badly, though. For a truck, stainless might turn out to be a pretty good choice. Fingerprints will always be problematic, though.

I dunno, I've never been much of a gearhead but the few times I've owned a truck I didn't really care if there was moss* growing on the damned thing. But those were pickups, and I used them for pickup things. I dunno how to square that with the notion that a truck is ruined by a fingerprint. * for those of you who don't live in the rainy bits of the pacific northwest, this is not an exaggeration
