I never noticed the wheel wells before. Man, that's an ugly truck!

Stainless steel still rusts. It just rusts far slower. Having a bare all stainless steel vehicle was stupid.

The best bit is in the last paragraph.

Some Cybertruck owners say their fellow Cybertruckers are blowing things out of proportion, and one said it’s a good idea to not “...drive it in the rain, or get it wet.” ... Others are in favor of their Cybertrucks developing orange stains, saying that they’re looking forward to the patina the stainless steel may develop.

Todd "Rust spots are a feature, bro."

Clint "Nah, man. You done fucked up. You should have known not to drive your truck in the rain. What were you thinking!?"

Todd "Orange spots look good. I'm not experiencing cognitive dissonance. Nope. Totally normal to have as a brand new $100K rust car. I wanted this to happen."

They probably used equipment on (things that are not stainless steel) and the stainless, contaminating the stainless. ( Any cutting/sanding/buffing equipment you use on stainless steel should either be new or only used for stainless previously, iircc. )

Did they not clear coat the steel?

Because. Because they're made of stainless steel.

NGL.. This made me laugh out loud.

It looks like surface contamination to me, which can happen when iron or non-stainless steel gets embedded into the surface of the stainless through abrasive action, like scrubbing a stainless sink with steel wool, or as some people have stipulated, iron dust from the rail carriers during transport.
