Watertight but not air-tight?

I added the last little bit to the nomenclature.

I can't find any 'second-person' language in it.

I wasn't aware Civilian vehicles needed a DR rating, especially since these aren't armored or anything. It would be safe to assume that something shooting this would damage it quite a bit.

Can we please get a ruling on this so in the future people will know the reason why Civvy vehicles require DR. I have my thoery, but it'd be better to hear from Wes.

After all, we need to avoid submission rot!

Added an SP value, though I still never got an answer as to why it needed one.
It has 5 SP.

Alright, just need this second-person language fixed:

The word has been changed.

The DR is needed because it is conceivable that a player could be using it for cover. Therefore they need to know how much damage it can take before its ruined or explodes.
