Haven't we all heard "Get out of my kitchen!" ?

If I am correct (?) it was going to be 3mm thick hardened stainless steel. Once they gave up on the exoskeleton idea, did they stay with the 3 mm stainless steel or use a thinner gauge?

Good thing they call it an exosekelton and not an exoskeleton which it definitely is not!

Get a life Crissa.

The Alfas are nice. Pity they didn't have the balls to build them!

Doors can never form a part of an exoskeletal structure. Yes sure they can have ribbing and bracing to help with side impact but they form no structural component in an exoskeleton design. They are a liability in that the overall structure has to be designed to accommodate huge openings cut...

There is no ambiguity about what an exoskeleton is. A Boeing 747 has landing gear which attaches to the exoskeleton. The structural battery pack and mega castings attach to the exoskeleton. The 3 mm stainless steel panels were supposed to be the structure.

Extra weight is the devils only friend. What am I missing. ? The exoskeleton concept is the classical jet aircraft design concept where the entire strength comes from the outer skin. When the Cybertruck was announce it was going to be built as an exoskeleton using special hardened 3mm stainless...

It's now a fairly conventional monocoque construction. It was conceived to be an exoskeleton and as such had heavy gauge stainless steel body panels because they were intended to be structural. They are no longer required to be structural and are just external body cladding which are...

Off topic, I see you have painted the strip between your roof and your doors. Looks good.

It is rather presumptuous that everyone will like what they are getting? Youve arranged your finance and everything and then only do you discover exactly what you're getting??

Yes, I see it is no longer an exoskeleton. Isn't this going to make it seriously heavy because the panels are now excessively and unnecessarily thick. (It is nice that they will be super-strong!)

The one thing we know and makes me sad is that there is no mid-gate between the cab and the bin.

When are we going to hear: 1. What specifications are included? 2. What is the pricing? 3. What is the range? 4. What is the performance? Why is this a secret?

Wrong, not per model - total sales..
