The only real accessory I need other than the big battery is some speakers, but I’m almost certainly going to do that third party. I expect within a couple weeks of the truck actually getting into people’s hands Crutchfield will already have the necessary accessories and speaker sizes sorted out and there will be guides on how to get it all sorted out.

I don’t use my sound system too much so I’m happy to ride in a quiet EV for a little bit. I’ve been noticing lately how much of the sound I hear in the car is just the engine, so that’ll be a nice change of pace.

am curious how much road noise we will hear. I like the quiet if am not hearing a engine but the road noise can be annoying after driving a Tesla for a few days.. so I am def planning my sound system accordingly.

I've noticed that more media sites are starting to put out "Slate, everything we know" posts in the last few weeks. My first reaction when I see one of those is "They don't know anything".

But it does tell us that media can already taste a gazillion clicks in two weeks.

I heard on the Engineering Explained channel during a video about EV tires that on an ICEV the drivetrain makes up ~50% of noise in the cabin but less than 15% in an EV, which is why the road noise feels so loud in an EV even though it’s overall quieter.
