    Got any photochopperz in here with mad skillz?

    I have two builds saved. One for the way I'm going to purchase my slate, and one for what I'm going to transform it into eventually. The main thing they have in common is the white lower half-wrap. I love the two-tone look like the silverados in the 70's. I'm posting the pics below. What I'm...

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

    At least he doesn't whine and complain about not having 4 doors like the AZA guy with his take that nobody will buy a 2 door.

    Tesla Supercharging ?

    I have a maverick. Even if the slate cost 30K I'll still buy it because I'll never have to repair any of the 2200 moving parts in an ice drivetrain. I've had a string of bad luck in gas cars lately. 2017 Colorado with a rear diff that kept eating bearings, Scion engine with low tension rings...

    Electric Power Mirrors Add-on PLEASE

    Back about 10 years ago I bought a 69 C-10 which was something I had always wanted. The passenger mirror drove me crazy. The right door window crank was barely working and required a crap-ton of torque to turn so going out and around the truck was easier. But the damn mirror wouldn't stay in...

    What are your personal MUST HAVE Add-Ons/Accessories for your Slate?

    Thanks! I'll look into it, but it seemed to me that the friday deal for the public is outdoors and probably won't see a lot of the stuff on display. I hope to find someone who has been to the friday event and can tell me about it.

    Electric Power Mirrors Add-on PLEASE

    Me in a vehicle with manual mirrors: 1. Get out and go around to passenger side and make best guess on alignment. 2. Get back in and see I guessed way off. 3. Get back out and adjust again. 4. Get back in and see it's almost there. 5. Get back out and make minor adjustment. 6. Get back in and...

    Anyone have a wrap on a car now?

    I wonder if that "starting at 500 dollars" is for a full wrap kit, or a partial wrap kit.

    Why are folks comparing an ICE/Hybrid to a BEV?

    oh HELL no! At my age I can't drive more than 75 miles till I need to pee again.

    Why are folks comparing an ICE/Hybrid to a BEV?

    I own a maverick hybrid and love it, but I put my deposit down on a slate day 2. I love the mileage on the mav and it is great value for the price, but it only has one advantage over ev to me, and that's the ability to drive 400 miles on the interstate at 77 mph, or 600 miles in town. Other...

    Thread for posting battery breakthrough articles. Tech is changing rapidly.

    I'll be posting articles here on new battery tech. Used to have a blog called halsbatteryblog a decade ago. STILL waiting on solid state, lol. In any case, innovations like LFP, Sodium ion, new anodes, cathodes, and electrolytes are coming along and improving batteries every day. Looking...
