The stainless steel is bullet resistant to many calibers of bullets but not all.

That makes all the difference. I am curious as to whether it is only resistant to .22 long rifle and nothing more powerful.

So he’s just showing even more how stupid he is by shooting that aluminum plated ugly truck.

A 1930 through 1950 car would probably be just as “bulletproof”.

He’s really lucky he didn’t hit the batteries. Especially with the dry grass under the car. Maybe he should check the windows next.

Turns out it was this one

Tesla Cybertruck owner/ YouTube influencer Danny Duncan tests bulletproof claim with the help of a couple "little" friends. He makes a decent living from doing stuff like this.

just like the bulletproof claim.
The bulletproof claim suggests it can stop a .380 auto round, and it does. However, the .380 is a pretty anemic round, and the guy who just shot his own truck is shooting something with far higher energy delivery. Can't tell what it is for sure, but it's certainly not a .380 auto.

Stainless steel is heavy when you make it thick enough to repel a 9 mm bullet.

Brake jobs I did at home, and my 9mm 124gr bullets would go through them.
My .45 would take chunks out of them.

Maybe he'd be willing to test that claim.

Actually no, people aren't saying that. But I'd still like to see him test it. He seems like the guy for the job.
