Makes me wonder if slate's frunk will have a drain so you can put ice in it. Definitely not needed for the first model but would be nice if they have one or have it in a refresh model
Yes, definitely. From the FAQ Page:
  • 8x 16 lb bags of ice for your tailgate (don’t worry, there’s a built-in drain for these special occasions)

Drain hole is good not only for ice but cleaning it out if you are like me and spill something in there.

Just stop real fast with the hood open.

Actually a sump pump, like the ones used to drain a spa would be perfect. Drain that frunk in less than a minute!

Envisioning melted plastic.... :surprised:
Haha. I have one of those. Surprisingly it doesn't heat the table much at all. Apparently the drip tray also works as a heat shield or something.

It's called the "Trailmate", but it should be called the "🔥Flare Master 9000🔥". A spray bottle for flare-ups is mandatory.
