Nothing Fun
Yes, the Pouch, just couldn’t recall proper name.
in same inability to recall, I’m sure I recently saw (In a video?) the Slate battery, exposed from underside with 3 Pouches installed and 2 vacant slots.
i would expect the bus contact to be somewhat spring tensioned which would initially hold in place and any excess space taken up when cover reinstalled, making assessable from underneath possible.
WarrantyLiability very likely an issue, but I suspect some 3rd party could take a hard look.
That’d be interesting to see that, if you see the video please let me know!

I highly doubt pouches are being installed directly into the entire pack without first being installed as mods, but always want to learn more

I hope you are over by $3K, Pat!
Those numbers are what I predict will be when it finally becomes available.

My past reservations (Ford and GM) have all increased by the time it was ready for ordering.

Ford Lightning was not too far off - about $1500 more than originally quoted (Lariat)

The biggest jump was the Chevy Silverado EV WT that went from an initial $42,000 price tag to $65,000 for a consumer base EV truck (2WT).

Yikes re: silverado! I thought I just read they were going to do a much better job on pricing going forward? I haven't seriously consider them to date, Hummer EV crabwalk, notwithstanding.
