A Model 3 owner's first thoughts on the Slate truck as a potential budget adventure rig. He's camped with his Model 3 before, so he's looking at it from that perspective.

That’s my plan. I have a Nature Nest Roof Top Tent I plan to mount over the bed for bone-docking around the Southeast.

Weekend camping rig will be my Slate’s main job.
Cargo top, suspension lift, spare tire and all-terrain tires would be all I need. Fender flares and the roof racks just to make it look scrappy.

Love it. I can give you some ideas about interior setup. www.EigerOverland.com
