Just found my problem. <%= collection_select(:Vehicle, box, list, box, box,
I previously had :vehicle. Which I'm assuming wasn't actually being recognized as Model type due to case. Weird that it still functioned on the index but broke on the show. Either way it works now. Weird little glitch I guess. I could understand if it didn't work at all lol. Thanks for the suggestion Colin!
