Hi Folks
Just signed up - I'm from Adelaide, South Australia and hope to be putting my deposit down as soon as concrete plans are announced to make the R1T in RHD.
I'm wondering if anyone else has thought that the full size spare would be better served as hanging underneath the body, rather than under the bed?
The practical point being that if you need to swap the wheel out and your bed is fully loaded with equipment or a hard tonneau cover, you'd have to unload the entire bed to get to the spare. A lot of off road 4wd's have theirs bolted underneath the body so that they can be swapped out once jacked up.
I realize this might not be possible given the architecture but perhaps something to consider if at all possible.
And please, get the RHD version made ASAP.
