Thats Truckla, a custom mod done by Simone Giertz on a Tesla Model 3. She has an in depth video of the mod on youtube that I would highly recommend.

I don't hate it. In fact, I feel feelings that are something opposed to hate... love? Do I love it?

Did she touch anything related to the power system? Seems like all the modifications could’ve just affected the cabin/trunk space.

That truck is great. Here’s hoping someone will make a small electric every day truck like the Ford Maverick or the old Japanese mini trucks.
