Why in the hell are backseats and the trunk off limits?
The SVX Trunk is tiny and too low to fit an entire PET.
As for the backseats, one of the biggest complaints about the SVX is that its really hard to get into the backseats because the Seats do not go forward enough. They go forward so little that I couldn't fit the PET between the seats to move it back there as I originally tried to. I really need to stress, the Commodore PET is a big, long and wide Machine.
The only thing I think i could've done better in retrospective is to take a rope of sorts and also fasten the top part, maybe between the monitor and main Unit, that way there would've been no way that it could slip in a crash or Breaking situation. Guess I just didn't think of that at the time, gonna keep that in mind next time tho
Literally anything you can do to change the idea that the computer is going straight through the wind shield during a collision is a massive improvement. That could easily kill someone.
It’s all personal liability.
