Bigger frunk

[ejwl]

From the videos I've seen online. The frunk looks a bit small. It doesn't look big enough to fit luggage. I thought the purpose of a frunk was to give extra storage. Having the frunk as a seating area is fine but more front storage space would be optimal.

A fully-grown adult (me) climbing into the Lightning’s frunk. I realized after the latch closed that I usually have my phone with me so I can open the frunk with it if I can’t find the emergency release button. It all worked out okay this time. Please forgive the several seconds it took for me to find the frunk button.

Well. Now @Scoutsie and I know the body capacity for our side “gig”. Very helpful

Did you do this just now for us? Awh that was so nice of you!

I’m confident the Scout frunk will be plenty big for my needs.

@Scoutsie and I were hoping for the double body count and a wash out liner that holds up to bleach! Any chance you and your partner both fit in there? Doesn’t have to be comfortable mind you-it’s about body quantity and not comfort

I also know, for certain, that the Mustang Mach-E frunk is smaller than one Standard SpaceEVDriver.

I haven’t measured any other frunks.

Compared to the average John Doe -I mean male, how tall are you? Just for creative purposes-nothing questionable here-just move along rubber-neckers

Maybe I should have said "downside"? I agree, I'd bet for a good chunk of forum members, that would be considered a high priviledge.

You can be the Pre-Production human measurement unit, and SM can fly you out to all of the events, and you can do important work like:

• Lay down in the back of the Traveler with the seats down like you're camping on purpose.
• Lay sideways on the seats in the back seat, like you're camping on accident.
• Check to see exactly where a tow hitch would leave a bruise on your shin/knee/leg with the offroad package if you forgot it was still there and walked around the vehicle confidently at night
• Time yourself to see how long it takes to retrieve the key, or your phone when you drop it between the seat and the console because you're horribly unlucky that day, and (probably) have hands larger than a toddler.
• Reach from the drivers seat, to the passenger side rear seat floor area, to get something that flew off of a seat/console in a goofy turn, and see what sort of gymnastics you have to do/what sort of chiropractor you need to visit afterwards.

For my part, I volunteer to sit in the seats while covered in mud and sweat, and see how well the frunk handles keeping sweaty mountain bike gear in it for a while. Its a thankless job, but I'd do it if needed. Because I'm dedicated.

“For the people”!

So you and @Scoutsie are looking for a more
Goodbye Earl situation. Got it!

That is impressive that someone actually thought to make such a list.

I wouldn’t go so far as to say impressive but pure entertainment gold-absofreakinlutely

Okay and for the lady Scouters I will:

Test the front and back seats with various hair styles. For example, if I have a pony tail in do I get a neck ache because I can’t put my head all the way back on the head rest.

I will test the pedals with all my different shoes. Driving shoes, tennis shoes, kitten heels, flat boots, heeled boots, stilettos, ballet flats, flip flops.

Next I would be happy to take it on an off road course with my purse and other items in the vehicle to verify they stay put over bumps and around corners.

And lastly, and I know it’s a big sacrifice but I’m willing to do it, I will attempt to get in with a fresh mani/pedi to verify I can successfully unlock the door, buckle my seatbelt, start the vehicle and drive to a designated location without ruining my polish.

That last item should be to verify no paint damage or chipping to THE TRUCK behind the REAL handles where nails always destroy the paint on most cars

Sounds like a pitch for a new game show. I love it.

How many clowns will fit? Isn’t that the standard by which all vehicle storage is measured?

What size cup will the frunk's cupholders accommodate?

Mid sized beer stein from Germany. I don’t do liters. @Cranky Canuck -we need help with your crazy metric conversions on this one
