    To avoid redundancy, it'll be a parts configuration under "Gavril D-Series". That way, I don't need to copy any of the chassis meshes or .jbeams. It makes tuning and fixing things far easier if there aren't two or three copies of the exact same thing sitting around needing to be modified. The "pickup_body" slot will load a part called "roamer_body", which will contain all of the parts of the Roamer that are different from the D15 (the body panels, interior, etc.). The Roamer's .pc files will also load "roamer_bumper_F" and "roamer_bumper_R" instead of "pickup_bumper_F" and "pickup_bumper_R" (these attach to the frame, not the body).

    and will it have shareable parts with the d15, like, the doors. Every chevy silverado up til 2015 had the front doors interchangeable with the tahoe/suburban, so that means same base of the cab, pillars, roof.
    Or, will the d15 fascia be interchangeable with the roamer fascia so that the fenders fit onto the doors?
    I know this is pretty limiting on design, but companies liked to do it this way, it saves $$$
