Garmin makes a similar product called the PowerSwitch which uses an app on your phone for switch control: https://www.garmin.com/en-US/p/718849/ Another cool “stick on” product is this Alpine wireless control knob for their Halo series head units...

It’s part of this thread. Not a known fact, but assumed based on what Slate is showing and what other manufacturers have done.

USB ports in the left hand corner near what looks like a head unit power connector.

Another moron who thinks the Slate is competing with family cars. Or thinks Slate is trying to make a family car and screwed up. Or thinks everyone wants a family car. Yup, that’s why the Porsche 911 exists. I hope he doesn’t quit his day job.

Wireless switches don’t just magically connect to DC loads. There needs to be a wireless hub /fuse block that those DC loads connect to plus a negative ground bus bar. Is Slate going to include this wireless hub as standard equipment but make the wireless switch bank optional as an accessory...

Interesting question. If I'm Google, I want more people using my apps and will try and make it seamless for that to happen. They make their software extensible. It probably took Ford three years to make a decision to support Google Maps after realizing that Google wasn't going to pay them. I'm...

The wrap I have in mind is specific to my small business.

Its a pretty cool design. Assuming it can either be USB-C or iPhone Lightning. I'll need the latter because I'm rocking an OG SE.

Other than a custom wrap, A/T tires, and door speakers (maybe sub too under the passenger seat), everything else will be Slate accessories.

Snagged this screen grab from the TFL vid. See that panel that is bolted on? Perfect place to mount a speaker.

Dimensionally is there even room to put a third seat in? The Slate is pretty narrow...much narrower than the Scout by 9.3". If yes, I could see Slate offering a bench seat replacement for the two individual seats. It might look a lot like the rear seat(s) for the SUV Kit.

I’m planning a factory pickup too. Most likely flying into Chicago, renting a one-way to Warsaw then a nice easy drive back home mostly on i90. I might bring an inflatable mattress to camp it.

I think a 245/65R17 (maybe 70R17?) will fit with the lift.

Most likely nothing, but I would use the receiver hitch for other things.

Tesla's most successful product is hype.

I saw one with what appeared to be metal bars between the buttons. Sharp.

2” receiver please.

I would but I actually don’t care about the results. No interest in removing doors.

If you make a comparison table listing Slate features in one column and then other vehicles in adjacent columns, it becomes obvious pretty quickly that no other vehicle checks the same boxes as Slate.
