I remember seeing that too, however I really like the fob insertion requirement if it improves security of the vehicle.

I think I would spray, not roll. And remove the panels for application. Lots of products on the market that may work including Raptor Liner. You will get texture (can be adjusted).

I am never taking the doors off, but I suppose for those who do remove them, mounting speakers in the dash is the only way to go. I suspect if you go Open Air, mounting speakers to the roll bar could be possible.

Took me awhile just to scroll through this. I’m hopeful that the standard phone mount will be easily removable for those that want a head unit with CarPlay mounted where the tablet mount would go. The dash speakers are a terrible idea. Speakers should mount in the doors and in the TOP of the...

Garbage in, garbage out.

Fantastic idea!

Agreed. Preproduction=not perfect. Expecting perfection=unreasonable expectation.

Super helpful explanation…thanks!

I see it. Is that a LiFePO4 12v battery?

Agreed. I think the general expectation for audio quality in the Slate is relatively low. That said, throw enough after market dollars at an audio solution and you can get something fairly spectacular. People will vote with their dollars.

You could calculate it per kWh but I think the result will be the same.

The conjecture is that Slate is investing cycles in optimizing any kind of audio system for the Blank Slate. To me, it’s highly unlikely.

12v outlet or 12v battery? I ask because more than one person on this forum has claimed that Slate is including a 12v battery. I’ll believe it when I see it. Until then I’m going with a voltage step down converter.

My wild ass guess is that the extended battery cost per unit is about $9.5K based on the SK-On info shared publicly. That’s $39.58 per mile of range quoted by Slate. That’s just under $6K for the standard range. Thus the delta is roughly $3.5K.

I’m a cyclist. I need/want a firm seat. Sofas are actually not that different. A firmer seat cushion will hold its shape a lot longer than a soft plushy cushion.

This is the danger of showing early Beta units to the public. Everyone wants to see something that reflects production units and that’s not what we’re getting. It’s frustrating. But also understandable. Next year will be different.

So bottom used for updating.

Was the Space Needle picture part of the wrap or a decal applied over the wrap?

I think the marginal cost is roughly $3.5K. Definitely not minimal.

My morning yesterday got away from me and I did not make it into Seattle. I hope others had better luck.
