    Slate pickup sighting in downtown Warsaw, IN! (w/ frunk, bed, charging port closeup)

    I see this feature as a benefit and the engineers probably designed it this way to make loading & unloading the frunk easier. By lifting that grille piece out of the way when opening the hood, it opens up that front frunk area for a lower loading height.

    Another shot where you can see its size compared to Cybertruck a little better. The Slate is gonna be the easiest pickup truck ever to parallel park! Look at how little space it takes between the lines :like:

    Slate EV Truck Will Be U.S.-Exclusive, for Now (Article)

    5' foot bed works just fine for the vast majority of midsize and compact pickup truck owners. The Maverick sells great with less than 5-foot length bed. The Tacoma with 5-foot bed sells in much larger numbers than the 6-foot bed version.

    Not sarcasm. Genuinely excited to see the factory labeled as Slate Auto now. Just spent a few minutes looking around the area on Google street view, as if I was driving to visit the factory.
