😊I suppose that the chassis under the Cybertruck will be regular steel metal subject to rust from the salt.
I assume outside of the stainless steel exoskeleton and aluminum giga-castings, any other external structural components needed would be made of either stainless steel or of aluminum.

😊Stainless steel suspension would drive the cost of the Cybertruck beyond our limits.

The vehicles have been sitting out in Boca Chica exposed to the elements right in front of the ocean for many months, some for over a year now, doesn't seem to be an issue.

So I guess most suspension parts will be "or of aluminum" like in some Tesla models and many other brands.

Since I don’t own a Tesla, I can do nothing but learn from other Tesla owners.
