Good grief, they go on about being "flat pack" and easy to put together but offer no photos of it as shipped or during the assembly process...

Worse yet, they are playing tricks with the perspective. Look at the loading ramp. That's actually the rear gate unmounted and used as a ramp. But see how photographing it from that angle makes it look so much longer.
The entire thing is a deathtrap. A used toyota pickup is better in every regard.

Yeah, I couldn't help but think there's probably a reason no normal car or truck on the road has completely flat sides.

Don't the LLVs that the US postal service uses have flat sides? Similarly for UPS trucks and the containers that eighteen wheelers haul. Seems pretty normal to me.
