It's bizarre that they didn't rethink the seat placement in the cab. Every opinion I saw from truck drivers was that they didn't want a centered seat because it impairs visibility, but Tesla's going through with that? Why not put it on the left or right side like virtually every other car? I wonder if they did some studies to convince themselves that it's a good idea.
