A collector generally only collects guns, not ammo. You don't need a million rounds for guns that are too valuable to actually use.

It didn't require steel wool, it just made the job faster. A green scrubby has done the same job. The stainless steel sink didn't rust just because it was touched by something rusty for 2 days. And it definitely doesn't rust just by holding water for 2 days.

You're now just twisting this into irrelevant bullshit. Have a nice day.

Not after 2 days. High grade stainless steel, which these trucks are obviously not using, will take a lot longer than that even with abuse. That's the entire point of stainless steel.

I've given no examples of how stainless steel can rust. You gave the example to start with that had something else rusting and touching stainless steel. High grade stainless steel will not rust after 2 days.

Stop trying to twist things to make your argument look better. It isn't working...

The stainless steel didn't rust. The cast iron pan was accidentally left on the corner of the sink for a weekend with a little water under it. The rust wiped off very easily, because it was transfered from the iron into it, which is all that's happening as long as it's not left there for a significant amount of time.

The truck was driven in rain, with no snow or salt involved, and began rusting after 2 days. That's a low grade of stainless steel to rust that fast.

It was in rain for 2 days. It shouldn't rust after only 2 days.

I have. I scrubbed the rust off with steel wool. As long as you don't leave rusted iron against stainless steel for years, it's fine. And that's not what's happening here.

If they had picked the correct grade of stainless steel, it wouldn't rust just by being outside. Cheaper grades rust, higher grades don't.

You're comparing 10 years of rough abuse with metal being thrown into them constantly as well as all the acids and salts used in cooking against a year of just existing outside.

Edit: it's not even a year outside...it was 2 days.

One Cybertruck Owners Club forum member says they started noticing small orange flecks appearing on his truck after driving it in the rain for just two days.

Stainless steel, also known as inox, corrosion-resistant steel (CRES) and rustless steel

Don't give me that bullshit. If a kitchen sink that sees water every day doesn't rust, neither should a $100K+ truck.
