From the Wikipedia page:

> Unlike most vehicles sold in the United States, the Slate Truck is not expected to have any Internet connectivity

Well that's certainly a sentence. It wasn't true just 20 years ago. It makes me wonder about the world we've grown into with deeply intertwined apps becoming not only the norm but expected.

The idea is there but I'm wondering about the execution. Here's hoping it takes off.

if the truck becomes popular enough post-market modifications will probably be sold as an extra.

If this thing really comes out in a couple years by the time it's ready for mass production to hit consumer hands there will probably be 2 or 3 self driving kits designed for it. The mods for this thing would be amazing.

A buddy of mine who creates shaped interactive art panels with oleds for disney and other groups interactive events texted me about this, installing video panels on this is going to be a breeze.

I'm more excited about this as a platform than even as a car, this is going to be like browser JS, the Lisa and VW Bug for creating an EV tech skill pipeline.
