Does the SUV kit make sense?

You could get the 2 tower kits, I just noticed one has a brake light, and use those as a base for a soft top, or open top cargo hauling or whatever.
I feel like by launch they may have a lot more accessory options. Since it's basically modular, and easy self install, they could have 5 different console options and so on.

Those with the optional rear tire could go the old-school route of the third taillight above the tire:

Curious as to how that rear mounted tire works with the SUV package.

IIRC, I think it swings off the rear bumper; i.e. a rear bumper swing mount.

I hope so. Would be a massively heavy tailgate otherwise

And if one wants the spare tire carrier, it will get expensive for the SUV kit. Rear bumper swing-out tire carriers for Jeeps and Broncos are not cheap.

Assuming a rather rare scenario where the vehicle rolled onto one side and let's say the battery is on fire in such a way that egress through the other door is intolerable, the SUV roof has latches that lets it pop off and the occupants can leave through there. The rich rebuilds video shows these in the corners.

My take on the sub is simple.If Slate can make the truck be a dingy behind my RV then the suv kit will be used to pack u stuff with.th stuff currently fits in my four door jeep. But with the covered back and frunk, it would be more room. And lighter.
