That's the well but yeah... It's hard to tell from that how deep it is and wide it will be. I'miking the idea for an accessible toolbox area that @Dorbiman had talked about in his post.
I thought it looked great. I'm going with just the truck though, so no extra seats for me. There were some "rough edges" to it but I realize this is a beta and that the production models will be cleaner and maybe utilize different materials as well. Parts will probably have been redesigned or...
I'm not a manufacturing expert but I think you're forgetting that they are not planning on a conventional auto assembly plant. Pretty much the same thing rolling off the line and a huge reduction in parts/assemblies. And no paint to boot. 😄
