Seriously, have you seen the specs and capabilities of Cybertruck compared side-by-side with El Camino?
Are we comparing a vehicle that has been out of production for a long time to one that has never been in production?

My 08 Silverado doesnt flex at all with full load on,
so that argument about necesary flex doesnt fly.
I think we should call "trump" on that. Even MT there is flex in the frame that will let the cab/bed gap change. I have not looked under one for a long time, but I bet if you do you will see the engine/transmission is mounted at 3 points, not 4. This is so the parts that must be rigid can move in relation to frame, let the frame flex. This also is why body on frame can haul a higher percentage of MT weight than unibody. The change to stainless might change that.
