Hello All!
Very happy to have found this solution.
I am in the USA and have a Slate truck on order.
https://www.slate.auto/
This new small pick-up does not come with a radio.
I am currently developing solution for this vehicle.
Now, I have:
1) old Car PC (Takes in 12V power and has 12V ACC line for power on/off)
a) Intel i7 with 4GB of RAM
b) Integrated GPS (I don't yet know how to access this)
2) USB SDR Solution
3) USB Sound Input/Output device
4) 13" Touchscreen display
Soon:
1) USB BT device
2) USB CAN Device
I look forward to sharing updates on customizing this solution.

Re: Slate HU Solution
Quick update:
Added: USB BT, USB WiFi, Microphone input
I have a USB to CAN Device, but that will have to wait until I have some idea of what kind of CAN data is available in the truck.
Customized start screen
Working features:
Storage Media, FM Radio, BT Audio, Wireless Android Auto,
Here is a quick video of the startup of the setup on the desktop as I work on development waiting on the truck.
