Seating
Exploration into the idea that we dont actually need seating that folds out of the walls when the walls themselves can act as seating. This will mean less parts that need to me moved and used - and also means that we can use the notion of hosing down the interior. Ill add more as i do it.
i suppose the good thing about having a wall seat idea is less manufacturing costs, and it is a seat all the time, it isnt popped down, or slid out, it is a seat that can double as storage space.
the idea is that u sit on the wall, so that in tight situations you have more space to move more people.
this ultimately means we can fit more equipment in and lots more people.
maybe we could have pop out seats on the exterior of the car, like the boot area?
