I had an Ascent and that thing drove so smoothly I had to set cruise control so I wouldn’t speed. I caught myself at 90+ a few times.

I pity the fool who buys a Ford.

When I saw the title of this thread, I thought I was on a kink forum and got a little excited.

It would be The swap meet gave me an ideaIt would be fun for people to make their own personalized statelets and trade them (like challenge coins) at these events.

If this was a hobby car and I planned to switch out the wraps regularly (once a year), is it just an exercise in futility or is learning to wrap/unwrap something that could be fun? and what kind of tools do you need to make it not frustrating?

I’m not sure if they will do a different model. Part of the business model is the accessories and the models over the years need to be similar for them to optimize the flexibility of those. However if they do a second model I expect that it will be a van style that allows for sliding...

That would be great but even if that doesn’t happen, I hope the community gets together for regional meetups so we can see everyone’s build out and hang out. I know as soon as I get close to my delivery, I’ll work on one for Colorado/Wyoming

I’m kind of in the same boat but it also occurred to me that I don’t really drive for fun anymore, just practicality. I’m more tempted to do more short fun drives and nearby day camping trips if I have something I enjoy being in. Right now I drive less than 6K a year.

I know customization is one of the key differentiators of Slate and one of the things that attracted me to it. I’m also excited to go to Slate meetups and seeing the diversity is designs. However, for me personally, there are so many combinations I like, I don’t know what to start with. And...
