I’ll concede that CDs will sound better in my Slate than a record player unless they really tune that suspension.

I said it when CD’s were invented, and I’ll say it again. I don’t care how many digital blocks you break a sine wave into, it will still not approach a true analog signal. That is what the hipsters describe as “warm.” People who hear pops and crackles have scratched albums or don’t properly...

You’re describing exactly how I’m feeling. I had literally read every post until 6/24 when the flood gates opened. Marked everything as “read” once the repeats got to be too much. Back to 4 pages of unread posts *sigh* I am glad to have more members; community is good. More people buying Slates...

Happy Independence Day everybody!

Been saving up since the day I heard about it. Q1 is coming up fast, but I hope to have enough for a blank Slate and wrap, barring some unforeseen major expense.

I’m sorry if I inferred a destination charge could be avoided. Not the case. Parade cancelled due to rain.

Old news so this linked article might be outdated, but there is hope for factory pickup: https://www.slateforums.com/forum/threads/report-slate-factory-delivery-under-consideration-would-take-place-in-this-room.13468/

I miss him. Kept things real. Tried a DM shortly after he dropped out. Nothing. Hope he’s alright.

Submitted. Q1 2027 window. Blank Slate plus wrap. Woo hoo!

Pre-ordered at 8:36 am pacific and didn’t get the 1st shift. Saw it at 5:15 when I woke up but figured everyone in the first 30 days would get it. No biggie…maybe they’ll still throw it in.

Quite the array of reactions for the same truck. Reading through people’s posts, it seems to say more about the people than the truck. Put me down as “ecstatic.” I feel this is a unique moment in automotive history.

I feel the Slate they put up for sale today is better than the one they announced a year (or so) ago. I’m happy to be part of the 1st 10,000 preorders today even with the expected growing pains. Great day to celebrate, Slate Forum members! Cheers 🍻

Pre-ordered. Didn’t see the “1st shift” Slatelet, but got the January-March delivery window. Always planned on small battery so happy to see the range increase.

South Bend. Part of the greater Michiana area lol. Seeing the empty Studebaker buildings growing up helped spur my interest in keeping American manufacturing going. Glad the auto industry is coming back to the area. Go Slate!

I never changed a clock until I moved out of Indiana 26 years ago. Growing up a mile from Michigan, I understand what you’re saying @EV Trek
