Pretty sure some of the videos show the frame.

Yes, I believe they call it the Slate Board? A play on words of skateboard

Real trucks get most of their tow rating from the strength of the frame and since the Slate has little to no tow rating I assumed it was a unibody. I could be 100% wrong and would like to know.
I believe it's a cab(internal steel support /cage of sort)on frame. One unit...

It’s a unibody. Welded space frame, not cast (like Tesla uses).
