System Brief
→ Vehicles — System Brief — the readable system-wide rollup: top tripwires, component-by-component table, recurring upkeep, biggest-cost decisions, and the strata-vs-detached split. The component notes remain the source of truth.
Profile Scope
All six vehicle components are universal (apply to any home type — strata, detached, townhouse). Research covers both profile-specific variants where relevant (e.g. strata parking rules, detached driveway access). Profile-specific notes are documented within each component stub.
