A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. A showerthought should offer a unique perspective on an ordinary part of life.
Rules
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- Avoid politics
- 3.1) NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
- 3.2) Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
- 3.3) Try c/politicaldiscussion, volunteer as a mod here, or start your own community.
- Posts must be original/unique
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

Good thing, too, because that cheap sombitch will rust to all hell if exposed to the elements.
No it doesn't. It's made of 300-series stainless steel which is highly resistant to rusting. Left out for the elements long enough it would be among the last vehicles in the world with something still left of the body. It'll probably even outlive Chevrolet Corvette which is made of fibreglass.
The rust you hear about is not the body that is rusting. It's iron particles in the air, mostly from brake rotors, called "fallout" that lands on the bare steel causing a chemical reaction which causes it to rust. That iron particle that is, not the stainless steel. It's surface contamination that can be cleaned off. There's no damage to the body itself.
