As far as the seats go it's really up in the air, like they said these weren't the final product. But they have shown a video of 4 people in the vehicle and a bar across the front of the seat to move it backwards and forwards. As the forwards and backwards movement of front seats is almost an...
Those may be an early or new design for the tower racks, they line up with the roof rack if you get it, if not yes they are taller than the cab so things you strap down aren't resting on the roof of the cab.
Let's not forget the Maverick was cheap ( and god will people not stop preaching that point), till it got to a dealership that added all types of dealer markups, upcharges, ect. The Slate won't have any of that beyond the delivery fee, it won't turn into a $35-40k truck by itself.
I think you're being a little harsh. The comments are pretty positive with people seeming to respond well to what was said. I personally agree that it could have gone better but I also feel that the first Slate owners will be the more resoursful ones that dig for the info and will use and...
We do need to talk about this description:
Specifically: "Right to Repair: Why Slate is "open source," allowing customers to perform their own warranty repairs and use a network of 4,000 independent shops instead of high-priced dealers."

I just hope she doesn't act like she did during the recent Q&A, that was a huge red flag to me and if she tries that on Jay's channel it will go over like a load of bricks. This should be considered Slates first real debut and the tone set here will carry forward in a big way.
Yeah problems is it's usually like an $50 entrance fee to get in and you usually need to schedule a slot to talk to anyone from Slate, it's more of a trade show and not a car/gun show.
Some how it almost looks like the towing will be the same. (I would have expected it to be better with its size and dual motor). And of course more expensive.
That whole video was a choice. If this is how they want to treat reservation holders questions then I'm not sure I want to see how they treat customers once we have vehicles in hand (I can cancel my reservation and get my $50 back, once I have a truck in hand it's much harder to get my $25k...
They have said it does not need to be in the dash to start the vehicle.

As far as opening a door with a bladed key the answer right now is yes, the bladed door...
