Ok, the trend has always been to over promise and under deliver. Even the Ford Maverick did not meet their release date and that was Ford with every resource they could possibly need... And they couldn't do it. Shell I mention the Cyber Truck or has that running joke lost traction. I can't...

You may be right in which case this plastic truck will never make it to market. Another Slate killer will be if Ford ever gets off it arse and produce a regular cab Maverick with a 6' bed like it should have to begin with. To this day I haven't seen anyone in the back seat of a Maverick when I...

I guarantee there are way more than that. I didn't know you could reserve one until something like 9 days after it was released (when I reserved it) and also only accidentally found this forum after doing Google searches for Slate. On top of that, I didn't notice the reservation tracker until...

Ok, just did some research on this Glass-Filled Polypropylene Composite material this thing is made of and how to protect it. Looks like you can apply a high quality Plastic Ceramic Coating like Gyeon s or Adam's. Best time to apply will be when it's new with proper prep and decontamination...

Not a clue what any of that stuff you just said is 🤪

I was thinking the same thing. Not very well thought out unless it's part of a plan to sell replacement key fobs. I'll stick with my Torx screwdriver set. I can also see a lot of theft happening with your custom headlight covers and such. I see an opportunity to produce after market Torx...

They are awesome. I would actually pay a little more if these were an upgrade

We just got rid of a newer Subaru Forester and we hated that lane keeping assist. Felt like a pin ball machine and you were bouncing off the walls which are the painted lines. Much more smooth and enjoyable in our new Volvo

I just had my new SUV ceramic coated but while I was deciding I was also considering Paint Protection Film (PPF). Both offer great protection and PPF is pretty much the same thing as a vinyl wrap but it's clear. If you have to keep your vehicle outside then vinyl will only last between 3-5...

Yeah, their probably in the wind by now. That's what Elio Motors did years ago, partnered with Pep Boys for all their service and support. Too bad they didn't make a single vehicle that sold

If that's what you want then Tesla offers it

Then you get into custom builds and numerous color combinations. These are not going to be produced in the numbers to justify numerous color runs. If some people want a Blue truck then how many Blue truck orders are required to make just Blue trucks for awhile. I don't even like wraps because...

Agree. I like getting in my truck and starting it up and having music come out of that magic box on my dashboard. Don't want to sit in my driveway and try to link everything up and wait for the satellites to align before I listen to my Rock and Roll. I also purposely leave my cell phone at...

Because I'm a Boomer and my cell phone is not part of my body like it probably is for you

Nothing. You nailed it. Produce only the basic truck like your doing and sell all the upgrades on Amazon. Establish a survice and support network by partnering with an established service center like Pep Boys or the like to provide the service people expect. Nothing like buying a truck and...

I'm kind of a Detailing Enthusiast and love the clean Slate color, it will match my SUV. How do you care for and protect this composite material? Can I just throw down an old school coat of Carnauba wax or does it need something special? Don't want a vinyl wrap because you'll have to replace...

Reading some of these requests like heated seats, steering wheel, leather seats, lumbar support, etc . . These people are looking at the wrong truck. Maybe a Tesla will suit their needs better. My first car was made in the 60ies so just A/C is Huge

Slate: Develop a basic single speaker radio we can plug into the center dashboard. Thank you

Completely agree 👍 Boomer here and I leave my phone at home on purpose, it's not an extension of my body. Hopefully Slate will develop a plug in basic FM radio with a single speaker for the center of the dash. Some pre wiring and antenna would be great. Will remind me of my 70ies era Chevy.
