    Corrosion resistance in Cybertruck may not be perfect

    Adding inverse current has been used for decades and is very effective in preventing corrosion on bridges and buildings that are earth grounded. It has been used (arguably effectively) in the auto industry. And my primary concern is not the body corroding. It's fasteners, structural components...
