Suspect that is really dictated by the State. I know here, finalize everything, get Temp plates and DMV ships plates to the dealer in about 3 weeks. that could prove interesting given the location of Slate pickup. Could involve a Temp in that location and reregister/Title where you live?

I can imagine some of the CSR team is challenged.

Or if Slate is building own seats take a page from Ford and make a convertible center seat/console to go between the bucket seats.

So either carry gas containers for your mower in the bed or get an electric mower

Sounds like OP may have a fantastic business opportunity, reconfiguring the Slate Dash to his superior design. Likely make enough to pay for his Slate and then some. me, I’m hoping that if a simple audio that it remains hidden behind the Slate panel or if I out for the Carplay type it replaces...

Agree, I think remove & spray could be a very good look.re work but might preserve the lines better.

yes, flat packed for DiY, but the FAQs seem to indicate any options can a paid install, either their post production point or partne. As for items like wheels, tires, bumpers, things that are replacements I would’t think one would have to buy both the original and the replacement unless you...

Hopefully you get to visit one of the live Slates in person soon and report back. TBH I don’t have a problem with the layout. My priority of use would be phone, tablet, radio, eventually probably tablet. I would hope their position does reflect some safety of use as far as visibility and reach...

could be mistaken but thought there would be a post production area to install paid to install accessories and wrap.. seems that would make sense especially for items that replace blank Slate items to reduce transport of those items.

Now I’m thinking if that 12x12 access panel can be modded into doggy door config with my topper .

Agreed, but I think the pervasive mindset is things are replaceable, not repairable. Many of use grew up in the repairable era. We need return to that thinking.

Soooooo, is that $$$ just resting on the pavement?

Ok, 20 miles per day @ 7 days =, 140/ week, round to 150, the projected mileage of a standard battery 1000 cycles divided by by 52 weeks/ year = 19.23 years

Almost ashamed to admit my lack of knowledge in this area. My home batteries are warranted 10,000 cycles, so over 27 years if recylced every day. possible life time warranty for me. 😁 So, if I understand correctly, someone with a Standard battery and 20 mile commute could possibly be doing 1...

What is definition of an EV charge cycle?

Let’s hope Right to Repair is the rule, not the exception.

So a curious thought this morning. What if Slate’s $25,000 number really is their goal number at actual production and not $25,000 today that will be adjusted for inflation.

Reminds me of my tractorshed

With the removable panels and liners of various colors could be some interesting combinations, even changeable if panels are relatively inexpensive.

Primers can make a world of difference for adhesion. In an earlier life I was a R&D tech for coatings. One of our products was the GTO elastomeric bumper. 3 part paint system - primer/color/gloss. Proper prep important as well.
