I want Slate to keep their opening model cave-man simple. I'm no troglodyte either since I've got enough digital #$% to launch a moon rocket. I will say I'll likely employ an Ipad when traveling unfamiliar areas so I can actually see/hear traffic conditions and determine crossroads etc. But...
What I love about the Slate is the vintage, utility look with a nod to those old farm Fords, Dodges and Internationals that kept running for decades. I pretty much abused my old Honda Element which had the plastic side panels and they held up great after skis, kayaks and bikes crashed into them...
Well Teach your Subaru has likely spoiled you. I have 350 feet of gravel drive that we don't plow since the stones will end up all over. None of our other 4 wheel drive type vehicles over the years could top the Outback. When it was gone, I began buying snow tires for various vehicles and YES...
Well I DO like my Mach E. Yet over on the Ford forum, they are again batting back and forth the issues with getting doors and liftgates to lock or mostly UN-lock using the various software methods. Sigh....I mean how hard is it to make a key fob small and powerful that people will employ and...
I will likely just use our Odyssey van until it drops dead. But would like to use a Slate as a local workhorse vehicle that I don't have to take seats in/out like the van. As SichuanHot noted, I too am fixed on the price staying near where their original guestimates are. Which seems based on the...
I am one of those "troglodytes" who will not be with phone in hand every waking minute. Or even in my possession on certain days. Totally digging the freedom from tech at times and like others, REALLY fed up with tech that doesn't work. Or takes precious time out of your life to learn and diddle...
I like that they are re-purposing an existing (possibly eyesore ?) facility. We are too quick to develop every inch of open land here in the US. Of course I know that there is a huge difference if the property was a metal plating plant or dealing with pFAs chemicals. Hoping the printing plant...
