That Yakima would create some serious drag...I usually think of those for long range trips, which could not seem to be the ideal use case for Slate ("fast charging capabilities, notwithstanding)...but, I get that they are putting out snippets to stay in front of folks.

The sled should be mounted upside-down.

Looks like they're working with Yakima? Maybe the Slate truck (blank Slate or with SUV or Cargo kit) will be included in their list of makes/models, to see if a particular rack/accessory will fit your vehicle. If so, that's great news! Hope they'll be talking to Thule and Malone as well. (I've got my eye on some Malone crossbars and a kayak cradle.)

And maybe this means that they're closer to determining the actual dynamic roof load too, which I am very interested in knowing.
