It'll be fine, looks like they tightened up the spacing, maybe only 18" OC, but hard to really tell from a pic..

Don't laugh. I was confused for Steven segal. Had crowds following me everywhere on the smaller islands. I have to be in a hundred family pictures over there. Had long hair slicked back back then. Good times!

One of my neighbors has an older Civic, had an emergency while he'd drunk too much and I ended up driving it for him. Had way more room in it than the newer Accord. Even today's 2 ton full size SUVs are cramped for me, fill up the front with huge center consoles and floor shifts. My truck has a column shift, more room.

Based on the pics I've seen of your foundation before they poured, and your framing, you have a good builder that has good subs working for him...

Trust me when I tell you that is NOT always the case.

Stuff looks good...
