    I was referring to the special provision in this post.

    Small vs Large Trucks

    It's a textbook example of POSIWID. If fuel efficiency standards were actually intended to make cars smaller and lighter they'd be adjusted until that happens. Instead, CAFE standards are causing vehicles to become bigger under the guise of conserving fuel. The Purpose Of a System Is What It Does

    Wrapped Orange Slate SUV and Pickup (with white roofs) inside Slate's pre-production facility

    🤦‍♂️ Edit: It's theoretically possible to do, so at least there's that.

    Wrapped Orange Slate SUV and Pickup (with white roofs) inside Slate's pre-production facility

    Funny thing is, the orange one might be the blue one, just reconfigured and rewrapped.

    What's the Slate's maintenance like?

    That's encouraging to know. Thanks. Decades ago a "first year car" was presumed to have flaws. Everyone expected that. Even farther back (say, 1960's and before), virtually all new cars , first-year model or not, were presumed to require a few trips back to the dealer to have some...

    What's the Slate's maintenance like?

    I understand what you're saying. I think the reason you are getting such good results is because you're on the ball about maintenance. You're exceptionally (pun intended) good at making cars last. This.

    What's the Slate's maintenance like?

    Reasonable enough, but 400K with zero failures is the exception, not the rule.

    What's the Slate's maintenance like?

    More frequently than "never". Not even having the parts is a Never-Fail Method of assuring they won't fail. Put the comparison equation in your calculator and you'll get a divide-by-zero error.

    If true, you've gotta wonder whether it expires on New Year's Eve 2026. 😧

    Noise requirement?

    Tire noise varies by a LOT. Here's how I know... I had a Mustang Convertible and read somewhere that getting quiet tires was the shiz-nit for convertibles. I upgraded the Mustang's wheels and put some Yokohama "Decibel dB" tires on the car that were specifically engineered for low noise. Wow...

    A brief search found this (not verified): [...] a provision in the bill allows the $7,500 credit to continue through 2026 for new vehicles from automakers that haven’t yet sold 200,000 qualifying EVs

    Noise requirement?

    It's quite the opposite. I'll let an AI explain... White noise is considered better than beeping for reverse alarms for several reasons. Firstly, white noise is more directional, allowing individuals to easily determine the source and direction of the sound, which is crucial for safety. This...

    Noise requirement?

    That's the whole point of what I wrote. White noise is an alternative to beeping that's more effective from nearby and not annoying from a distance.

    Plus power steering fluid if I understand correctly. Will there be refrigerant?

    Noise requirement?

    White Noise > Beeping sounds White noise is far less annoying and it improves ability to locate the vehicle. From a distance white noise blends in with other noises, so it creates less noise pollution too.
