The difference, at least for me, would be that a bed topper limits access to the bed from the topper window & tailgate, while the non-SUV cargo kit sounds like there's access to the bed from the cab. At the Philly Zoo event I asked about access to the rear footwell area in the truck...

Absolutely! I really like the size and the general vibe. For me, it clicked more in person than in the photos. Even more psyched now. I tried attaching some photos, but they wouldn't attach. Maybe they're too large? I'll try here with only one and see what happens. The Slate exhibit is at the...

Just got back from the Philadelphia Zoo. No new information to share other than they are working on various wiring hookups in-dash, but final configuration is still TBD. And it sounds like the window cranks have been reworked so they operate in the proper direction; driver CW & passenger CCW...

I just got my ticket and parking for Friday. The $27 admission jumps to $39 for Saturday and Sunday, yikes! I'm wondering if Slate will do a themed wrap for the event. I'm recalling a TV show from the 1960s called Daktari. One of the vehicles on the show was a zebra striped Jeep pickup. It was...

Anyone else attending the event at the Philly Zoo next weekend? I'm thinking of going on Friday. Saturday and Sunday there's a Boo at the Zoo event too with kids in Halloween costumes and such, so Friday is the only day I'd consider going. I'm a bit miffed that it requires a $27 admission and...

Regarding circuit capacity, you don't want to exceed 80% of the circuit amperage to charge an EV. The circuit rating is for peak amps. EV charging is a sustained load. To safely charge at 30 or 32 amps you need a 40 amp dedicated circuit. And because of the temperature swings, the connections...

I agree with Susan...covered storage with windows but no rear seats. I'd prefer the fastback. The fastback seems to not reuse the rear glass but has something different. Pretty sure that's still being worked out. Will either one have defroster wires imbedded? Also, I realize the truck bed...

I grew up with manual windows, so that is no big deal. Kind of retro-cool, actually. However, that doesn't necessarily make them bullet-proof. The '80s Chevy Citation comes to mind. They used a tape type of regulator that broke over time and then the window dropped into the door. I'm hoping...

I have to agree. I had an '81 Scirocco, the prior generation. A coupe utility hatch sounds great to me. You could even s-can the back seat like the CRX I had after the VW.
