depreciation of inventory also can reduce income tax. Though at the time the item is sold, the items have a reduced cost basis. Many states have property taxes and so there can be taxes on inventory. neither indiana nor michigan tax inventory

I couldnt find any hard data, but AI seems to think 2 doors are around 2% of total pickup sales. That would be about 58 thousand (2.9 million pickups sold each year) Now there is an SUV form factor, but then the pricing is starting to overlap with existing EVs like the chevy equinox which you...

california pretty much bans those.

it sounds like slate is going to be selling through an existing dealer network. So there must be national chains that can act as dealers (carmax/autonation/lithia or something?) that wont take too much margin.

I would think they would pick a standard that already exists so there is already a body accessories that fit.

This is how FUD works. When you think about it, if they even had a picture they would have put it in the PR. They literally have nothing.

dfw is one of the hardest cities to drive in. The way the road splits in 3 directions with only last minute instructions is absolutely bonkers.

Its not a waste of money for you... I live in the south, it barely gets cold here. Lots of people live in california and it doesnt get cold there. 3500 invested will double every 7 years so it might be worth it to get the smaller battery. I personally will probably get a blank slate truck and...

Absolutely you should buy whatever meets your needs. A product team creates a hypothetical user profile and builds towards servicing that. You might be out. However for sure people say their house is too large. Have you heard of the term downsizing? Once people become empty nesters they often...

the interesting thing is that pep is 0-30 and the 0-30 of the EV will be better than most ices.

ive been driving a 4.6 tundra crewmax with an 8 second 0-60 for 15 years. It is fine for highway merges. I rarely even need to floor it all the way. amazing how the auto industry marketing has us brainwashed for all this stuff we dont need.

they are typically around 350. It is set to that so the average person has to get gas about once per week. With an EV you can charge daily.

The average annual miles driven per vehicle in the US is around 12,000 miles, with a standard deviation of approximately 3,500 miles, according to information from various sources. This means that most vehicles (roughly 68%) will fall within one standard deviation of the mean, which is between...

I 100% want AWD. But the reality is in my tundra, over 15 years, ive only had to use it for one week in an ice storm and a few other times where I thought it might be better to have it on.

depends on how much it is. if it is 3K and the truck is then 28K it is still cheaper than other comparable electric suvs which are actually crossovers. But I agree, there is much more competition in the SUV space. Bear in mind though you can remove it and have a truck when you need it. The...

Im down to 6000 miles/year these days since I work at home. For family outings we take my wifes car. I going to try to go purely blank slate. I will want a hitch (for bike rack) and a tonneau cover for secure bed storage. she has 60 miles of PHEV range and that is enough. We actually force the...

My wife loves her mercedes mbux infotainment. it requires her fingerprint or a pin to sign in and has a bunch of stuff that is useless for the core purpose of driving. the one thing it should have (it has the cameras) but doesnt is 360 dashcams.

just another vote for bench seat. Increases the seating capacity by 50%! Have 2 younger kids (oldest drives herself) and often have to drive two kids. If we need to haul everyone, will take wifes car.

I use a trifold rigid on my tundra and it is great. Opens in the front and the back

Slate said under 20K with the federal tax credit. You then take it as law that it is 27,500. Then after the vote to cancel the EV credit, slate said mid 20s and didnt correct an interviewer when they said 25K, you ignore that. We have multiple posters doggedly hanging on to 27,500 without...
