    Dash cam power

    Yes, I get your point. Everybody wants to request a feature on a product that's supposed to be intentionally lacking features to save the customer money... However... The doors are already wired for optional power window motors to be mounted and plugged in. Also, the dash is wired to accept...

    Aftermarket sunroof - Suitable for Slate

    Slate Auto's website contains very, very little detailed information about ANYTHING about this truck. The website seems to be just a pleasant tease to get people interested and excited, while not informing. Of course, it's still very early and maybe they don't want to promote a feature they may...

    Virtual dash cluster

    There is so much confusion over whether or not the Slate Truck has a screen. The fact that the customer can add their own phone or tablet to the dash seems to be making some people assume that the stock truck, therefore, has NO screen. Also, journalists like to say "this RADICAL DISRUPTOR EV has...

    Foldable Soft top

    The removeable rear roof is shown here in this here video @ 15:15 I get the need for the roof panel providing rigidity, but if they can do away with the roof over the rear passengers, why not the front cab roof which has 1/3 the square footage? I am not an automobile engineer.

    Removable top over cab - or large sunroof/moonroof, t-roof like Pulsar NX

    My favorite thing about my Jeep is the ability to drive 9 months of the year topless and doorless, so I'm a little disappointed that the Slate isn't (yet) showing an option for cab roof panel removal. They built that ability into the SUV shell option, but it just isn't the same. So many...

    Electric Power Mirrors Add-on PLEASE

    The mirrors look like they're in an a roomy enclosure, and I saw in a video a journalist asked a Slate rep if power windows were an option and the rep said to "stay tuned."

    Electric Power Mirrors Add-on PLEASE

    I share the impulse to want to add on things I don't currently have. Only one car I"ve ever owned had power windows and it would be one of the few addons I would consider for the Slate. LOL. Everyone in the media is going crazy over the hand crank windows on this truck (!) and I want to install...

    Virtual dash cluster

    When the shifter is placed in R Reverse, the 4" screen behind the steering wheel automatically displays the backup camera's POV and when the shifter returns to D Driving mode, the screen would revert back to speedometer. Simple and automatic. I heard that using a smartphone in the cradle is...

    Slate's open dash panels are ideal for Amateur Radio / GMRS!

    I saw a video that showed USB ports in the compartment directly above the climate control knobs. Also, I think I saw another 12V port in the frunk, which would be a perfect spot for a portable cooler when shopping or camping. And if they're smart, there would be some kind of port presence at the...

    Slate's open dash panels are ideal for Amateur Radio / GMRS!

    I was thinking the same thing. A terrestrial radio antenna should also work beneath the plastic fender or wherever, no cutting, no weather, no theft.

    I was literally googling around for an stl last night.

    Are you actually going to BUY the Slate Truck without a Test Drive?

    This is simply false. Slate Auto has said, repeatedly, that showrooms will be open in all major metropolitan areas where a prospective customer can test drive it, put their hands all over it, ask a thousand questions and maybe, for a small fee, make sweet, sweet love to it. I made that last...

    Option to make a Slate pickup a flatbed?

    Slate an American kei truck. If success comes...so will variations galore. Patience.

    Do we know if Slate is on this forum?

    I know a certain someone who IS on this forum:

    Another pessimistic viewpoint video - "Is the Slate Truck a Winner... or a Total Flop in the Making?"

    I've also seen many of these pessimistic takes on YT, and nearly all are the same POV. These pundits always pop off with arrogance and a desperation to be seen as seasoned experts. They are almost always looking at things from a very narrow and negative perspective: to say obvious things that...
