Pretty much that saids it all. Ain't many of you if any of you like me.
So.. I'm guessing a kumbaya tailgate party with you while flipping "beyond meat" burgers on my new plug in electric grill (powered by the CT solar panels) is out of the question then?

Ordered right there at the event when that bad boy pulled up on stage. It was sick seeing that beast in person!

I'm not getting the truck for those reasons you listed above. I'm getting it because of the capabilities and it's time for me to setup my retirement vehicle. I plan on retiring in 8 years and I'm getting FSD because I'll need a vehicle to move me around after I can't drive any longer.

Well, I see that @Dids deleted his post before I could reply. But I guess they are metal (aluminum?) strips with prongs to grab the t-slot
I have plastic ones used in the empty channels of the 8020 extrusions on my CNC, but those aren't exactly t-slots. They might still work through. The plastic ones wouldn't pull up/out very easily though, so wonder if the ones Dids has are better for that.

That would cover them but I was talking about something like this. They also make ones that sit flat with deck. They are used on cnc machines

With something like those, you could cut a small section out for attachments to the T-Slots, or leave off the ones you want access to.

That's because I intended to post those post in the t slot thread instead of this one. I dont want to get wrapped up in "I ain't like you" because I am exactly like you and I know that's scary for some people.

Ah, I was wondering why that seemed out of left field! Will have to find that thread.... it's the #1 selling point on the truck for me! :)

So, this is an interesting topic. Vehicle exit and entry as a retiree. I have some thoughts on it, so I'm going to start another thread on it.
