    Wait, I thought he was just bullshitting his fans with that. He’s actually serious? XD

    Also, I don’t understand what this has to do with bare metal construction of the Cybertruck and why that should present exceptional difficulties. DeLorean figured out how to make bare metal cars more than forty years ago, so it can’t be that hard.

      DeLorean also didn’t use flat panels on the body. Though it might look like it at first glance, none of the DeLorean panels were flat, they all had a slight curve.

      All metal panels are gonna flex a bit in the changing temperatures.
