I'm tempted to attend that event. I figure I could take a power nap after work, then get out there by event opening, get home, then recover on Sunday.

Third coast better be next

I hope the next event is in [my_location_here].

They have been promising the events will come to the Mid-Atlantic/ Mid-West for a year now.

I’m getting pretty damned tired of seeing all the events in California and New York.

No offense to California and New York, but damn!!

 

[JRE]

Added to my calendar. I had to bribe the wife with a nice lunch afterwards.

New plan! Power nap, do Slate event, squeeze in a visit to the California Science Center to check out the new Space Shuttle Endeavour exhibit, crash at my in-laws, then head home.

I may call out Monday... But I'll bring a tape measurer and get measurements for the frunk!

Hey, as long as you're there check out the dash panel to the left of the steering wheel, does it open or what? thanks

If I can make it out there I'm checking out EVERYTHING I can.

Hopefully both configurations will be present and accessible.

Coolness - sounds like a fun trip. I'll be standing by for those frunk measurements too! Really hoping that my 27 in x 17.6 in x 17.25 in 55 qt. Lifetime cooler will fit there.

Could you please measure the depth of the roof and hood please? 🙏

I am considering flexible 200w solar panels, they are about 31*53 and 31*55.

I'm not going to promise anything, but I'll make a list of things I can realistically measure and inspect.

No idea if this is possible, but I would love to know how wide the roof is (side to side on top).

I feel like I'm going to look like a lunatic running around a pre-production truck with a pen/notepad, tape measure, and a big ol' S&!T eating grin.
