The man sieg heil'd TWICE on camera at a political event. No, he wasn't being "awkward Elon," as his protectors have disengenuously suggested. He has inserted himself into far, far right politics, including Holocaust denialism. He not only allows hate speech on Twitter/X, he commits hate speech...

Plz scroll up and re-read post #4. I quoted another person mentioning plastic parts falling off cars and I simply replied making a joke about metal parts falling off CyberTrucks. That's all that was. I was not referring to airbags at all. You imagined that.

I thoroughly agree. I'm not planning on any SUV kit upgrade. At this time, I've no need for a second row of seats or rollbar or shell at all. But I do brainstorm stuff like a soft top shell over the bed as opposed to a tonneau cover or a truck tent or camper shell.

Huh? I don't understand your comment. When did I mention airbags? What is a very bad joke? My swastikar joke? I'm not a nazi, Elon is.

Don't they prefer white Toyotas?

My old Jeep hardtop was a solid 200+LB piece of equipment and a tiny chore to install, uninstall and store. I kept it hoisted up to the garage ceiling and only used it in the winter and got rid of it after about 3 yrs. It was always in the way and I don't miss it one bit. The soft top is a...

I'd prefer that over that huge metal boomerang that flies off Elon's CyberTurkeys. If you put 2 of them together you might be able to form a rudimentary swastika.

WHAT?! How, I ask you, HOW is this possible?* *internet sarcasm...

The power door locks have wiring jumping the door gap and supposedly the optional power window modules utilize the same wiring. I believe it's routed through a rubber sleeve boot. Speaker wire could probably use the same.

He's a CEO of a major carmaker. His base salary is multiple millions/yr and his bonuses are many more multiple millions/yr. He doesn't know what poor means. He doesn't relate to someone who CAN'T pay for everything all at once, so he assumes everybody's gonna fully load it up on day one. Only...

I apologize for attributing your comments to a d#$@ CEO. If they were in one of your comments, I must have skipped it over. I also have difficulties dealing with people's personalities. I have allergies and lately there's a lot of crap floating around in the air.

God, a major corporate CEO acting like an internet bully troll. Literally trying to mean girl shame people for buying an affordable car. I miss the days where people who were in charge of stuff at least "seemed" to be grownups. To me, being desperate to conform is what is weird. It's a sign of...

Folks, I'm seeing on here some of you posting quotes for wraps in the THOUSANDS. I'm not shocked about high prices, but I'm disappointed that anyone goes to the trouble to get quotes for wraps. I'm not a seasoned pro at vinyl wraps, but I've done a few and I can assure you that they're not that...

I've heard that mixing old and new batteries isn't a great idea anyways. I bet it's part of the reason Tesla cancelled the CyberTurkey's Range Extender product. I don't have a serious need for Slate's larger battery, but I'm leaning towards getting it mostly for resale value. It seems that...

Rage sells. Half the videos on YT are designed to provoke our anger. I'm not immune sometimes. I've posted one or two cynical YT "Slate truck is a FAILURE" videos myself. I find them to be an amusing part of the Slate Truck story, and a great way to get discussion going. Strangers bond when...

USB cables are prone to failure and need occasional replacement, so I'm assuming the Slate's phone dock will be designed to facilitate cable replacement. I hope. It would make sense. Phone batteries have a limited number of charge cycles, so I'd never use the phone mount unless I could remove...

It's anybody's guess. IDK if the base Slate truck has fogs or not or whether one needs to purchase a bumper upgrade to get fogs or not. I actually hope it doesn't have fogs. I do need them, but stock fogs are usually junk. I want to DIY my own. Even super-cheap Amazon kits are great. I just...

My commute is only ~30 miles/day, so I plan to L1 charge btwn 9PM-5AM twice/week. I have learned that 120V Level 1 charging is best for battery health if you have the time and don't need to drive many miles daily. Slow L1 trickle charging stresses the battery less and may lead to longer battery...

Yeah, it's crazy how far cars have come since when I was a kid, safety-wise. Crash testing was a thing in the American automotive industry since the 30s, believe it or not, but they weren't PUBLISHED until the 70s (according to Google AI). I was a little kid in the 70s and remember all the talk...

I get that YOU think that YOU'RE BIG INTELLIGENT OR SOMETHING, but if Chinese autos were as awful as you believe, then it would be in Big American Auto's best interest TO LET THEM IN AND LET AMERICANS SEE HOW AWFUL THEY WERE. It would be GOOD for selling American cars. DUH! The truth is: China...
