feature, not a bug, they want you to buy their $4000 BOSE upgrade which is actually $500 of equipment.

I read this as the parent complaining about other car manufacturers selling you crappy default stereos so that you'll upgrade, not that Slate is excluding a stereo on this truck to upsell you.
In fact, I would be rather surprised if you could buy $4,000 worth of stereo equipment for this car, given their promo materials seem to include a $100 bluetooth speaker below an iPhone.
The parent comment was about the general trend for car manufacturers to do this, not the manufacturer in question.
Do you have any proof or even a hint of a reason that this will be the case? Or is this just nonsense?
Their FAQs even state: > Built-in infotainment systems raise a car’s price, and they become outdated quickly and have high failure rates.
It seems unlikely that a company saying this will throw in a $4,000 infotainment system in a $20,000 vehicle.
