  1. I think I am “over The Slate”

    I'm not following. Wouldn't higher charge rates produce more heat? That's what typically happens for smaller devices like phones, tablets, laptops - why would that be different for an EV? Are there any forum moderators here? This discussion should be moved to a thread of its own as it has...
  2. I think I am “over The Slate”

    How would level 2 charging use less total electricity for the same amount of charge?
  3. Who wants this battery in their blank Slate?

    It will be interesting to see how much this technology will cost.
  4. I think I am “over The Slate”

    dark star, I see this as very healthy. Now you can view the Slate truck with eyes not clouded by emotion. Looking forward to further updates on your thoughts here. :)
  5. Slate Website / Configurator Update + New Accessories and Parts

    Must be another hallucination. 🤷‍♂️
  6. Slate Website / Configurator Update + New Accessories and Parts

    Not me. I don’t have a need for an audio system. I outgrew that years ago. If I (ever) want a high-fidelity audio sound system I surely wouldn't want it in my truck, and that money would be better spent on a home theater system. Count me out. Edit: This is a current picture of the...
  7. Slate Website / Configurator Update + New Accessories and Parts

    Fair enough! Ok. Rather strong & pointed phrasing calling this a 'hallucination' but I'll explain my point for you since it appears you don't see your contradiction. Here's my evidence: The point you made was not 'making a simpler to install stereo' - it's about your position that Slate needs...
  8. Slate Website / Configurator Update + New Accessories and Parts

    Except it stands in contrast to the notion of Radical Simplicity you so often mention here. I find your contradictions humorous! Soon you’ll be advocating for subscription based services 🤣
  9. Slate Hires New CEO Peter Faricy. Ex-CEO Chris Barman appointed new role

    Totally understandable. But as you can imagine a business owner/fleet operator might possibly have a different approach in order to manage their fleet. Just suggesting that the forum peanut gallery won't represent all use cases. :rolleyes: This again??? I love you brother but you've got to...
  10. Slate Website / Configurator Update + New Accessories and Parts

    Why not? There's probably room for an air fryer and espresso machine too! Probably. Someone needs to write Slate and demand these features!!!
  11. Blank slate narrative is a mistake, and that needs to change

    I don't see much difference between this configuration and a front-wheel drive, but that's just me.
  12. Slate testing on solid ice & snow at Baudette Proving Ground in MN (video)

    Now I gotta go look up that super awesome front bumper in the Slate maker... 🤘 It just keeps getting better!
  13. Blank slate narrative is a mistake, and that needs to change

    How does regenerative braking produce any more increased wear on the tire than using regular brakes?
  14. Great Interview with Chris Barman: "Slate's Wild Idea To Fix The Auto Industry"

    Ran when parked! lol Forget wraps, we need more discussion about this funky van. Unless someone wants to duplicate those awesome Keep On Truckin' graphics!
  15. Slate Hires New CEO Peter Faricy. Ex-CEO Chris Barman appointed new role

    Some interesting speculations in this thread. It often seems to me that these executives ride a merry-go-round from one business to another! Or Faricy was at home, sitting on the couch waiting for the phone to ring... Either way, I wish them all success. :like: Next step - Slate University...
  16. Problems you are worried about Slate having with the production prototypes.

    It was the Sandy Munro video where Chris Barman claims to be employee #2 (about a minute in.) I couldn't find any reports that showed Rod Copes was ever CEO. Slate Confirms $700 Million in Funding, Bezos Investment Let us know if you have a link to info that says otherwise.
  17. Slate Hires New CEO Peter Faricy. Ex-CEO Chris Barman appointed new role

    I understand you might not intend it this way, but it sounds unnecessarily harsh. It's easy to speculate the reasons for this change in management. Personally, I suspect the current military action against Iran and its impact on the economy plays a role. But in the end, the decision belongs...
  18. Problems you are worried about Slate having with the production prototypes.

    When was Chris Barman hired? I thought she claimed to be employee #1 or #2 in some video presentation.
  19. Slate Hires New CEO Peter Faricy. Ex-CEO Chris Barman appointed new role

    But will the delivery fee be waived for Prime members?
  20. Confirmed: 4x4 all-wheel drive AWD planned for future Slate version!

    Hello bob - I see this is your first post here. Have you driven an electric vehicle? If not I highly recommend at least a test drive.
