> Anyone who really goes off road is looking for a lot of features that are hard to find in a production vehicle. (which is why they often modify production vehicles).

Perhaps this is something that Slate can solve better than Tesla.

Besides being all hype and no production at this particular juncture, the design of the Slate is not geared towards offroading at all.

The customizations available/planned are cosmetic things not of interest to off road. You can put in a different sound system or change the color - but off road wants things like a skid plate that can handle boulders.
