  1. I want my AM/FM radio and that's all there is to it!

    I don't listen to AM radio so I can't say if my EV has any greater interference than my ICE, but my Mach-E has AM radio.

  2. I want my AM/FM radio and that's all there is to it!

    Does the Slate have a spot for a standard automotive radio and speakers? I have to say I wouldn't buy a vehicle without the ability to add an integrated audio system. 100's of automotive components are available off the shelf and providing for it would make good sense.

  3. The 'Slate' effect, will we see a wave of retro EVs like early 2000s cars?

    I would assume fleet, with Amazon being one of those customers. Plus Amazon is a seller of things, so customized parts or wraps provided by Amazon. With no American competitors for 3 or so years, they can sell tons of cheap fleet trucks/SUVs to be used for deliveries, small construction or...
