Just curious, how many people
participating in this forum
have actually made the $50 deposit.

There is a list (pinned at the top) of people who have reserved a Slate.

I am aware that there is a list on this forum.
But my understanding is
that it is not the official Slate reservation list.
They are volunteers and accordingly the list does not include everyone who has actually made a deposit.

Likewise, this forum does not require a Slate deposit in order to participate.

So, I have a hunch
that many of the forum participants
have not made a deposit.

What does it matter? Not official. This is such a small sample, but still great IMHO.
If someone on here is a negative poster and thinks a Reservation adds credibility, they can just lie they have one.

There are 317 reservations listed on the tracker. Most of them have a reservation number attached. There ya go.

Okay. Thank you for that
The Slate Forum indicates there are:
Members 1,192

So, only 27% of forum subscribers
are in the tracker.

Even if a similar number of subscribers are depositors who have not added themselves to the tracker, that would still mean that about half of the forum participants have not made a deposit.

I am closing this poll today.
I screwed it up and cannot change choices,
only add additional ones.
I may try it again later.

I’d be willing to bet a good chunk of people signed up for the forum when the hype was high, and never returned.

it’s a $50, refundable deposit, not a marriage license

People can lie on a poll, just like they can lie on the tracker. I’d only take into account those on the tracker thread that have reservation numbers. Quite a few are missing those.

I didn't show my reservation number in case someone can use it, somehow. Just being paranoid. 😁

Not worried.

Have had 4 reservations and all posted on forums sites and never had a reservation stolen.
It's tied to your email/phone and credit card.

Of the 4 reservations, I was able to order and purchase (Lightning and Mach E).

The 2 reservations that never came to price fruition (GM Denali EV & Chevy EV) were quickly refunded back to my card.

Easy peasy....
