Caught this part in Motortrend's article on the Slate Truck:

Slate’s guiding principle for personalization is if a change wouldn't harm the Truck or people, it’s fair game. That’ll even extend to warranty repairs that can be completed by an owner.
This principle is also key to Slate’s intent to open-source much of its ecosystem, allowing handy creatives to design and fabricate their own accessories. Slate draws inspiration from online marketplaces in the crafts and 3D-printing spaces for building a community around this vast potential.
Love that it's going to be an open-source ecosystem. Should hopefully mean plenty of official documents and reference sources posted by Slate. This thing is going to be a dream for DIY tinkerers and wrenchers.
