I'm thinking that would actually appeal to some folks as a Mad Max sort of aesthetic.

After the Cybertruck aluminum and cardboard edition. For that derelique fashion

Ooh, that sounds hot as hell.

Make it yourself!

Maybe rivet pennies like scalemail on an existing car

Immediately imagine myself pouring a little bit of nuclear orbs into the front like I'm feeding a small animal.

"Here you go little buddy, eat up.."

You mean next to the weekly sacrifice of virgin blood and ritual singing? This thing is expensive!

Apologise to the car!

For a couple years I worked at a company that mainly sold fasteners. Think nuts and bolts for residential, commercial and industrial use. They came in different grades (strength), materials and coatings based on usage (for example indoor or outdoor use).

I was told by other sales associates that "stain less" was more accurate than "stainless." The reason being that if you expose stainless steel to water long enough, it will rust. However, it will take significantly longer to stain/rust compared to plain steel.

You want to use stainless steel in places where things will come into contact with water but not in situations where it will be submerged in water or exposed to the elements for long periods of time.

Your joke was pretty much how I was taught about stainless fasteners.

Sadly, no amount of money can teach a billionaire such simple things.

"it stains less than cast iron dipped in pig guts"
