    Slate Video: Lawn Tool Fit Check

    Love how this became a discussion on lawn and garden equipment instead of the truck’s cargo capacity

    Slate slams Tesla as a “self-driving spaceship”

    Hey, they’re talking about me! I have a self-driving spaceship and want a Slate as a great second car

    But that makes our trucks more expensive

    This might be a Drag on Slates success.

    I agree with absolutely everything. And I know for a fact that Elon won’t change, Tesla won’t fire him, and Slate will have to come in under $25K to have a chance. I’m calling it now: Tax credits will be gone before this truck is out and Tesla will release a stripped down version of the Y for...

    So how are you mounting you 50 cal

    My local gun shop has a legit M2 for sale for $25K. I want it, but I also want the Slate. Of course I’d love both, but unfortunately the bank account says I have to choose one or the other.

    Bench seating for front

    Bench FTW! Had one in my first truck and would love a reunion.

    This might be a Drag on Slates success.

    The CEO might be a big-mouth, but Tesla is still king of cars. Slate will need to keep their unveil prices to have a prayer of a chance of remaining in business. For the record, I’m a Tesla owner but fully rooting for Slate to succeed.

    V2L connection (vehicle-to-load) confirmed. Power tools & appliances w/ your Slate truck

    There’s no way V2L will be standard. It’s a bare bones truck with hand crank windows! We’ve become quite pampered these days. Slate is hitting full reverse and bringing us back to the 80s (you didn’t see any outlets in those beds)

    Did anyone else get a phone call from Slate today?

    Wonder if that was intentional?

    Nissan rolls out new 3rd generation Leaf. 300 mile range.

    New Leaf seems solid. Price is decent. Tesla is struggling hard with customer relations right now, and their new Y is considerably more expensive than the Leaf. That being said, I’d bet my life more Ys are sold than Leafs (leaves?) in the next year.

    Silly Ideas; Slate specific racing/rally series.

    This slow car can’t go fast lol. 8s 0-60 and 90 mph top speed. It’s all but impossible to get a speeding ticket in.

    Tailgate party, anyone?

    You think so, huh? Welp everyone’s entitled to their opinion šŸ¤·ā€ā™‚ļø

    Tesla Supercharging ?

    I guess we’ll see if Slate gets access. They have the proper charge port and a relatively small battery pack, so I would think they’d certainly want the option.

    I think they could make the bed shorter if they just believed in themselves

    Did anyone else get a phone call from Slate today?

    Same for me, though I don’t expect a call anytime soon. I just reserved this month lol

    What was your first vehicle?

    I’ve been a truck lover since birth. My dad, despite having never owned a truck, bought me a used ā€˜01 F-150 when I got my driver’s license. White/single cab/long bed like this one: I wish I’d kept it around now to compare it to the Slate. It didn’t have cruise control or power locks/windows...

    Tailgate party, anyone?

    I’m sure the babes will be flocking to the simplest, cheapest truck made today lol

    Article: Ram CEO: Slate Vehicles Won't Be So Cheap Once Buyers Get Done Optioning Them Up

    I’m planning to get mine entirely blank with no add ons. It’s what the Slate is supposed to be, and that’s enough for me. Even the wraps, I think, are a little silly. The SUV kit has its place, but just about nothing else does. It should be a dependable, reliable, simple vehicle, not something...

    Will you be installing a Level 2 charger?

    I already have a L2 charger in my garage. A L1 isn’t sufficient for how much I drive, but definitely for some people it will work.
