This thing may be ugly but there are other concerns for people using this like a real truck.

-The bed is not easily accessible from the sides

-It's unibody(ask Honda about that)

-It's stainless steel which would make repairing difficult. You will now have to paint that raw steel after hammering out any dents after an accident just like the Delorean

Thank you! I was thinking the same things. More concerned about using the vehicle as a pickup than the design. I didn't see places to mount a rack, and only a few places that might be holes for straps.

Why would you paint it? It's not painted in the first place.

  • Do you know what is involved in "hammering" out dents in a collision and how the metal looks after? Also you may need to then fill some surface irregularities with a filler.

    This is why Deloreans that got into accidents were usually painted.

    Of course if you can easily replace an entire panel with a new one, this can be done. On cars the rear quarter panel cant be "replaced" like the front quarter panel which is just bolted on.
