Depends on how new and fancy your truck is and whether you find yourself needing one. I know if you go back far enough they don’t have them, so I imagine at some point they became an option and perhaps more recently they became standard. I’ve never needed a truck myself (having a buddy with a truck is often enough for the odd job) so I’m not sure.
I mean, my angle grinder runs on drill batteries? I’m pretty heavily invested in a cordless battery system for power tools and lawn equipment.
And that’s kind of the problem with stainless steel. My dishwasher has a stainless steel front and it looks like the inside of a shower drain 6 minutes after I wash it.
Sure, there are cordless power tools. I am not sure what you’re saying.
As for your dishwasher: I’m sure it has received surface treatment as the people designing it made the connection dishwasher ——> water in their heads, so you end up with a surface that, while proudly displaying every fingerprint, at least doesn’t immediately pick up surface rust. Or it features one of the 20 types of alloy that are more resistant to rust. That apparently didn’t happen for the Cybertruck.
In any case, what I was saying: maybe plain stainless wasn’t such a great choice for the body of a car. Maybe if you really lean into it and intentionally add to the rust / accentuate the shoddy exterior, the overall design could work as DIY’ed, end-of-the-world, Armageddon - style Mad Max vehicle. I could see that.
doesn’t it have an inverter built in? with sockets in the tray bed area?

Does the cybertruck specifically have a 110V inverter?
Yes, you can get the “Powershare” option which will include 2 110V outlets in the cabin, 2 in the bed and 1 additional 240V outlet in the bed.
They have enough power to run an angle grinder, but that’s also about the only positive thing I can say about that car.
I can’t believe how run down it looks in OP’s picture, given how recently it was made available.

I guess what I was saying was it should be a moot point if there’s 110VAC available, your truck grinder should have its own power.
inverter: exactly. my question was intended to be rhetorical, since, well, as you pointed out.
to be fair, archonet is slightly right - a cybertruck owner wouldn’t need an (extra) inverter, since they likely already have one built-in.
