    Focus, focus focus on getting Blank slate to the point it becomes the platform of choice for many years with an expanding array of function driven accessories, 4wd/awd, bed mods, cab mods, battery upgrades, motor upgrades, etc that can be applied to a blank slate of any vintage.

    Slate's Entire Marketing Campaign is Completely Wrong

    If I understand correctly, if marketing aimed at fleet, construction, etc isn’t apparent to us they must not be doing any Or doing so incorrectly?

    DIY vs OFT (Open For Theft)

    Not completely drawn out yet, but my thought has been add at least 2 or 3 truck mounted, motion activated cameras (s340) that feed into my Eufy Security system. It already runs on my iphone/ipad. I’d be able to monitor my dogs and watch for ne'er do wells.

    The Bright-side of the EV Tax Credits Going Away

    So I have a friend who decided last year to upgrade from her Leaf to a Kia. Of course she got the new EV credit, but she was even more excited to find a way to use the credit on the Leaf resale which resulted in a better resale. She was excited to relate that with the original credit, the local...

    The Bright-side of the EV Tax Credits Going Away

    kinda like those who profess to only use other resources and not the fed $ to pay for prohibited services. I’m still looking for that list of folks so upset with this bill that they absolutely refuse to accept and will refuse any of the tax reductions. And the addendum saying ā€œrole me back to...

    Aptera-style solar panels in SUV option.

    The title of this thread being Aptera has me hopeful of an Aptera like solution, which I assume entails no additional battery other than the EV. Of course Paul is correct in detailing that a home system is more complex and definitely more expensive than simple PV array. I have a robust home...

    Aptera-style solar panels in SUV option.

    If you are aware of a home based, solar array only system please share. I definitely want one. Almost limitless might be overkill. What number of panels and total wattage would you consider appropriate for charging Slate standard battery, extended battery?

    Suggestion: DIY Delivery Center @ Slate Plant in IN

    A choice borne by those who chose. My doing so would not be an early choice. Having never even driven an EV let alone own and know how to take care of a maiden voyage from Indian to Long Beach would be an adventure. how many charging stops in 2100 miles?

    Factory Lift Questions

    Pretty sure that all indications are lifting/lowering will occur after blank Slate production.

    This might be a Drag on Slates success.

    Thinking about the fleet aspect. If Slate produces a truck that is dependable, easy to maintain, and style is retained, I would image business keeping them extended periods yet pushing to the used market while still decent values.

    Did the "big bill" just end EV Tax Credits for Slates? [WARNING: NO POLITICS]

    Reservation List - Delivery Order Priority?

    True, kinda a mess. yes, they have a 100% renewable goal. each county controls the building/permit process, hampering making solar more doable, supposedly getting better. the major power company has been an impediment saying infrastructure can’t handle excess solar, but improving windfarms have...
