Not sure if this has been recently addressed, but upon close inspection on the 3D Slate maker it appears the 9-segment LED brake lamp has now been neatly incorporated into the rear tire carrier. Which is adaptable for the open air, fastback, and square back variants. And I must admit it looks...

Have you checked it today? 🙂

This makes the estimated $5k cost of the extended range battery sound like a true bargain! And that includes labor and a factory warranty.

Yes, in NYS the color is listed on the registration card.

Hey Marko: You caught my attention with Donut Lab. Then I found out it was about solid-state batteries. Tell me about the donuts....

Put this guy on Shark Tank and see how they react.

If you’re looking to paint the entire vehicle, wouldn’t it make sense to find a certified collision shop with a full-size spray booth? The idea of removing panels, hood, and doors, even if designed to be removable, doesn’t sit well with me. Where I live, I see a lot of “Caliber” shops that...

At least he gets to drive the company vehicles.

It might, however, be a proper getaway vehicle in the Amish country, with police on horseback 🙂

Yes! But the 8 seconds to reach 60 mph is not exactly going to outrun police vehicles with the interceptor package … lol

Don’t you need to get it wrapped before you unwrap it? 🙂

Not sure if everyone is aware, but if you change the color of your vehicle, either by paint or wrap, most states require that you report it to the DMV and have the registration and/or Vehicle Title updated. Just something to keep in mind.

Remember this guy? Let’s bring him back! “Hi, I’m Earl Scheib, and I’ll paint any car, any color for $29.95. No ups, no extras.” Now thinking paint is a better option than a wrap. You can easily fix a scratch on a painted car; with a wrap, not as much.

By definition, the risk formula for Slate is simple: early reservation holders = early adopters = inherent risk. Any time you take delivery of a completely new product with no real-world experience you become an extension of the company's beta testing program. Is this any different from the...

Word of advice: always involve your Significant Other “SO” with any large purchase. Sometimes it takes weeks or months to strategize the acquisition. It inevitably leads to arguments, but you just have to play the game. Usually it goes like this…. Me-“I’d really like to get that (insert...

Has anyone forgotten to remove cargo on the roof rack before pulling into your garage? You only make that mistake once! 🙄

I wonder what what is the level of “wind noise” we can expect with the bare rack? Also, how easy is it to install & remove?

Did you mean CARMAX? 🙂

If I was an investor, I’d be more interested in a company with a large backlog of orders. The current 150k reservations represents only one year of full rate production. I don’t believe Slate is purposely downplaying the reservation count. At some point Slate will be seeking series c financing...

I want to add accessories that make it look like something this, when I’m all done. Full roof rack, rear tire carrier with Slate logo, roof access ladder, lift kit, all terrain tires, aggressive wheels, fender flares, rounded tail lamps, black wrap, and tinted glass all around. And no tailpipe...
