This suggestion has been implemented. Votes are no longer accepted.

Seatbelts come standard. A rarity on many Nepleslian cars.

Lord.

Anyway, this all looks good, but I've a couple questions.

1. Is there undercarriage armor?

2. Does it use a simple drive-train to move the wheels? I know it's a little basic, and all visual evidence points to it working like a truck, but I just wanna be sure.
 
As usual, have added blurbs to the articles and will answer your questions here as well.

1. Sort of, in the sense that MRAPs have V-shaped hulls to provide a measure of protection to the crew in case of a worst-case IED or mine detonation beneath the vehicle, then so to does the Outrider. The V-shaped hull is mostly a crew protective measure, though. They will most likely survive an explosion but the vehicle will be totaled.

2. Yes. Added a blurb to clarify that, but the only difference between a normal truck and the Outrider is that it uses the ubiquitous UCF-04a fusion generator instead of a fossil fuel engine. Everything else is recognizably a truck.
