2) Where normal attributes are bootstrapped to Character heros, the Vehicle ones are bootstrapped to the RaceVeh (VehicleBase in my case).
3) The display of the Basics tab in SR5 changes depending on which set of attributes is being used.

Everything else is functioning like a normal hero, where weapons, etc are picks on the Vehicle race, correct?

1) There's some overlap on the attributes - Body, for example, appears in both, but Charisma is only used for characters, and Handling is only used for vehicles. But they're all in the attribute compset, and where they're used is just a matter of tags.
2) yes
3) it's based on a tag on the hero that tells me the character type
Yeah, vehicles are just another character type in SR5.
