Looks like it’s a 12lb Stanley Soft-Face Dead Blow Sledge Hammer. It’s not metal on the outside (there is a urethane coating), but it’s still metal on the inside (steel):

Uh, oh. My E39 has a steel body. Should I be concerned about insurance and repair costs? <seg>

Ahh yes Tesla, the bastion of truthfulness. 

I don’t know what you are on about, from the Tesla web site:

no, they aren’t - there was some videos from the factory tour and the long hockey stick piece is its own thing (there was racks of the pieces in one of the shots).

The other problem is finding repair shops that will repair to sub-micron tolerances.

Agreed. There will be no hail damage claims and any minor parking lot damage is probably unlikely too. There also wont be any painting or blending of adjacent panels for color match.

From what I can see so far, it does look like it’s at least more resistant to dents than a typical body. I mean, I was skeptical of this till I saw Randy Pobst smack the middle of the door with that sledge. Was it a metal sledgehammer? No, but that door was OBVIOUSLY a lot more dent resistant than any other steel…

This is great, but around here we’ve always had an unspoken list of what we call “slut cars.” Every generation had their own set, I’ll use my graduation year as an example:

Ah, looking forward to 1000s of reviews that have nothing to do with the actual car.

I love all of it, it even has great looking tires still in decent condition (not sure what they are) but holy jumpin’ jesus, $75K for something that has probably barely been started in 20 years? Come back to earth please 

You know what? I’m ok with this article. 

Can confirm.

Also, in space, when you fart, it push you forward.

The new Chrysler 200?

To be fair though, if Ford had came up with this design, they would have been put out of business within a week. All the Henry’s in the world would be rolling in their graves, and if they’re still alive, they’ll die, then start rolling in their graves. I am curious to see how this whole thing plays out, cause I saw a…

I think it’s fair to point out how poorly designed/built the Cybertruck is.

Look, I’m not a Tesla Stan but:

Why don't we do this with all our garbage?
