Amazon's "see it first" option. lol smart.

Assuming I leave it in the truck 24/7, Id need something that can do 105 F in the summer (not counting sealed in a truck cab in the sun, so 160 F?) and down to -20 F (sometimes worse!) in the winter. Realistically I'd just bring it in and out with me. Anyone leaving a phone/tablet in a vehicle...

Nice. I havent used a CAT myself. Most people seemed to like them. They werent making anything too modern when I started looking, though I think they did come out with a new one this year. I needed a Thermal camera though specifically, which I dont think they've offered at all (iirc). Most...

Name one other vehicle we can go out and buy that we can mod the crap out of as idiot 20 somethings, then get married and start a family and turn into a respectable transportation/grocery getter, then change again to use to haul junk as we move into a bigger house with 2 kids and a dog. And...

Unless someone else makes a car purpose built for people to work on and mod themselves, I don't see a real competitor. You want cheap? Stop buying new things. Buy something off a lease at least. If the warranty and service stations is the big concern, then a DIY vehicle is probably not the...

Some peltiers and a cold plate and its a refrigerator...or a slow cooker, take your pick. :) BMW has these. Ive got coolers that do this. Hell, I've got ICE MAKERS I can run off a 12v I use on camping, tailgates, boat, etc!

Classic example: 0.42 !

Interesting idea but dear gods would I not want that in my truck. Obviously built to 'look cool' but not functional for squat. Like a Slate truck version of a car from 2F2F. :CWL:

But cheaper. Last I checked, Amazon was almost a 50% markup for a lot of things over $100 vs what the actual manufacturer was charging me direct. Sometimes 400-500% (or more!) for things under $10. I also had several really bad experiences where things were 'fulfilled by Amazon' but had to be...

I'd be pretty surprised if they didn't NOT offer it, but then officially paired up with an outfit like Crutchfield to offer an "officially Licensed" Slate package. Slate gets the lic money and Crutchfield does all the heavy lifting in an area they excel at. I suspect we will see a lot of...

If I could, Id skip most the warranty. Would be nice if it could be legal bare minimum and then they sell an additional warranty for people that want one. I'm probably just going to void most of it right away anyways. As far as shops/Service centers..... It's a DIY vehicle, so DIY, right...

Gotchya. Id forgotten about those. We always bypass em at installation. Ive literally never had to deal with it.

Modern Pedestrian Bumpers. :)

Genuinely curious....."handbrake"?

Mostly, yes, thats true. I misspoke. Not counting DAB, DAB+, etc or antenna units with built in boosters/filters, its the Tx/Rx unit that is different. I assumed you were just tossing out the normal "big antenna = better" reasoning. Sorry about that. If all you want is FM, then a 3 foot...

In the videos its one looooong open space behind the 'dash' panels

If I post a lie here, AI can/will source it as a truth. If I then repost the output, It again reinforces the fake answer and another AI (or the same one) can validate the (false) fact as factual again. So on and so on and so on until there is more evidence for than there is against. If...

They get used for surf boards too. Lumber, ladders, Christmas trees, etc.

Google for "rugged tablet" and youll find brands like Dogee, CAT (yes, THAT CAT company), Ulephone, Blackview, Oukitel, etc. Stay away from the weird Amazon brands. These are major brands, just not ones you see much in the US outside heavy construction. Ive got an Ulephone in my pocket atm...

Ive had .....3(?) smaller pickups now with the short length cabs and they all had 'enough' lean in the seats I didnt feel like there was a rod up my back. Several work trucks though, yes, those were less comfortable. Seems like maybe they put more thought into comfort when the person sitting...
