This disclosure relates to a motor vehicle including a convertible work station. In some aspects, the techniques described herein relate to a motor vehicle, including a bedside panel including a door. The door is rotatable relative to a remainder of the bedside panel between a closed position, in which the door is substantially flush with the remainder of the bedside panel, and an open position. When the door is in the open position, the door provides a worktop and a compartment located interiorly of the bedside panel is accessible.

The invention relates to a haul truck body, comprising a front wall and two opposing side walls. Each side wall presenting an inner surface and an upper edge portion extending rearwardly from a rear end of side wall towards the front wall. Also, each side wall presents an upper reinforcement element which is integrally formed with the side wall and extends along the upper edge portion of the side wall. The invention also relates to a truck and a method for manufacturing a haul truck body.

A trim element for a tailgate of a motor vehicle. A receptacle is formed in the trim element which is open towards an inside of the vehicle and in which a warning triangle received in a case can be placed or is placed. The receptacle has: a rear wall portion having at least one elastic clamping element; two front restraining portions; a support portion; and the clamping element, the front restraining portions and the support portion are designed in such a way that they are in a form-fitting and/or force-fitting connection with the case when the warning triangle is placed. The rear wall portion has a guide portion above the clamping element which is curved concavely towards the inside of the vehicle and along which the case of the warning triangle can be introduced into or removed from the receptacle.
