If Slate did not opt in to match, Californians get zero rebates. If Slate opted in to match, then Californians get $3,500 off the total OTD. Buyers in all other states will wonder how Slate can afford to take $1,750 off the same trucks that they are paying full price for. They'd want $1,750 off...

That is the easiest solution. No need for an elaborate build though. It can be just a simple SB168 Slatelet that anyone can add for $1,750. 🤦 For California folks, it will get us $3,500 off the OTD price. We are still about $175 short because of taxes on the full purchase price. Beats $0 rebate.

I just found out about Alpha Wolf and WOW. They look amazing. Gemini got mixed up after image rendering and referred to one of my builds as Alpha Wolf.

That yellow is growing on me. I am afraid that the $1,550 price tag is going to look reasonable soon. 🤦

I hope he can get past the marketing campaigns and evaluate Slate's potential based on his needs. Slate is a good truck even for folks who opted out of certain firmware updates. Most of us had gone through this last year with the colorful set of hand-crafted steering wheel covers, seat covers...

Thanks for sharing with us!! 🤩🤩🤩

Slate wearing the Macho Kit Powered by Gemini Here is your top-of-the-line, ultra-macho version of the electric truck! I’ve added all the rugged upgrades needed to transform it into the ultimate heavy-duty beast, including: A Massive Lift Kit & Off-Road Tires: Aggressive mud-terrain tires on...

@007 we need to use $24,950 as the price to calculate the total, then take $3,500 off.

The portrayal of a mother and daughter is refreshing. I do understand that many would fine this cringe worthy. With zero background in marketing, I had to consult my know-it-all nephew about the reasoning behind this collab. He threw so many marketing terms at me but my layman understanding...

I believe they mean "... to negotiate from the car's total out-the-door price which includes doc fees, taxes, and registration costs." It really is just the price of the car. For us, there's no negotiation on the $24,950.

It would be awesome if the price includes installation prior to delivery. With such eye catching colors, I can imagine the excitement of seeing it fully wrapped in one of those colors at the time of delivery/pickup. I noticed that the first-shift accessories are supposedly to be delivered with...

Sales tax in my area is 10% 😳 and we need to add destination fee when it is determined. I remember vaguely that during my short time in sales, one extra sharp customer argued about how the rebates were taken off the total OTD instead of the sales price of the vehicle. I forgot if that was the...

Visible is $20/mo with unlimited data/tethering. On my budget Motorola phone (Android 13), the hotspot stays on all the time. You can specify that it never turns off in the settings. The hotspot feeds a rearview wifi cam and music-only phone in the car and also a secondary Android 14 phone for...

This might help. If I remember correctly, sales tax is based on the zip code of the address that the car is registered at. https://my.caredge.com/out-the-door-price?

Perhaps this one will restore your faith in Slate?
