In the largest automotive markets, some sources are suggesting that that the new vehicle market may have reached its average sales peak. Therefore, the lower end vehicle market could be supported with previous owned Teslas and the Robotaxi. This could be why Tesla may not offer a 30K vehicle...
As pointed out earlier in the elephant analogy post. The Cybertrucks front wheels will lift off the ground before any separation may occur. There's your sign you have exceeded design specs.
I tow a 28' WorldCat 7300#, trailer 2500#, gear, 1/2 fuel and water approximately 2000#.

The question is: can the martensitic type of stainless steel Tesla has...
I think painting a CT should be easy and a good choice. With the glass roof and tonneau cover, all that needs to be painted are mostly flat horizontal surfaces. (EASY)
