This is an interesting product, but that being said, I already own something the size of a phone in landscape mode that shows all my apps.

If the original plan of ~53kwh and ~84kwh with 5 and 8 modules of NMC cells is what they end up doing, then I would expect the small battery to be somewhere around 200-300lbs lighter. Rumor has it their battery options may have changed though.

I was wondering if removing the midgate would leave you enough room for a mattress! Hell yeah. Where are these pics from?

My favorite part of that story is that John DeLorean didn't actually have any money or cocaine, he was trying to scam the people trying to entrap him, haha.

People interested in Slate would probably appreciate Grizzl-E's commitment to open source software.

They used "SL8" somewhere, but I don't think they've confirmed a model name.

Lol, I'm not opposed to putting an E-stop on the dash. (This photo is actually from someone who spotted a test vehicle, if that wasn't clear to anyone) I'm not a Slate Spy, but I am willing to be...

Here's mine

Look, if Toyota wanted the oil in my 1zz to stay in the oil pan, they would have designed the oil rings to actually work.

I've only personally owned a cheap 240v mobile EVSE (works fine after 7 years). I would recommend checking out the State of Charge youtube channel. They test and review EVSEs.

I don't have any oil opinions, but I'm willing to pretend I do for the sake of internet fighting.

Haha, my rule is: Red Loctite on large torchable bolts or things that you don't care if they become permanent. Blue loctite is for when you don't want to need to torch it, but plan on it anyway. Vibratite is what you want for anything under like, M10. If you need extreme vibration resistance...

The FAQs have mentioned that there would be delivery to your door available at a cost. I'm guessing it would be similar to the delivery fees Carvana charges.

I've very aware of loctite's product range, and stand by my statement.

Seconded. Don't put loctite on anything you're unwilling to heat with a torch.

When I first saw the Slate, I thought it looked so much like a Bronco Sport that the Slate must be what Ford Skunkworks was working on, and they would "claim it" after they saw a positive reaction. That wasn't the case, but I see where you're coming from. I mean, the Bronco Sport has been out...

Carvana was one of the theorized "delivery partners" that Slate vaguely mentions. Theirs deals on used cars haven't been very good for a while now, but their purchasing and delivery system wass pretty solid and easy to use when I was buying my Spark.

So far I haven't had wiring damage from rodents, but anything parked outside for more than a few days will have mouse nests in it. My current commuter is a civic that sat for a few years, and it was absolutely full of mouse poop. I have my family's assorted beaters all parked inside now, with a...

The obligation to increase shareholder value leads some companies down some dark paths. I'm not convinced that sort of short term thinking is a necessary part of publicly traded companies, but the way our stock market works seems to encourage it.

I'm a big fan of Slate re-affirming their commitment to privacy. This was something I was worried would start to change with the new CEO. It's part of the reason I say the Slate can't really compare with anything else for sale. The closest vehicle in specs is the new Bolt, even though it's an...
