I'm thinking this was all about getting the content creators listed to create something about the slate, not showing to the public. I'll be watching their work to see if any do anything.
I'm thinking, at least short term after I buy the slate, this tablet with line-out and a mini amp to two speakers either in-door or the slate ones that go behind the dash panels
I'll use this while figuring out what exact components I want for a full double din mid-range installation with sub
I hope there is a truck there, but please take many photos of all the stuff these people are making if it's for the truck, which I assume is the point of the show.
Have fun doing the audio. It's easier than it seems. I've done so many in my life. First was a quadraphonic 8-track in a Ford Falcon. I've never done a double-din though. Looking forward to it.
I was happy with my hybrid Mav. I bought it a year earlier because I was tired of waiting for ford to get off their skunkworks ass and give me what I wanted. I don't remember exactly how I came across it but I saw the video the day it came out. It was like the clouds parted and an angelic...
In 1969, a year where muscle cars and land yachts and station wagons ruled supreme and gas was cheap, the lowly beetle and it's offshoots sold over 400,000 vehicles in the U.S. The beetle alone was 370K. I think 100K slates a year is very conservative.
As much as I want to see them, I considered driving 10 hours to Nashville. But now that they won't let you sit in them I'm thinking I might as well wait till they start showing actual line produced trucks with the actual plastic panels and almost finalized design. Maybe they'll even let you...
Just a little weekly post from P.R. listing any interviews done, stuff coming up, or progress on the plant. Or just shoutouts from the employees. Any info would be appreciated no matter how small. Slate is already the most transparent company out there. This would only make it more so.

I give Musk full credit and admiration for developing evs that a lot of people love to own. I drive 13 miles through Frisco, McKinney and Plano Texas once a week and I play the "count the Teslas" game. I stopped playing when my count got over 30 per trip.
I was dead set on buying a model 3...
Maybe it's my generation, but if our first car was a passed down family four-door, it was a "drive of shame" going to school every morning. NOBODY wanted to be seen driving a four-door. At one point I got the family 67 Falcon Futura 4door with 3 on the tree. In an act of desperation, I put...
I'm so tired of everyone thinking that having 2 doors will kill sales. I've never been more confident that Slates will sell like cups of water in hell. Hoping for an ipo so I can buy in.
