    Expected price now "Mid-Twenties" for Slate truck

    Because what people say on the net is inaccurate. In this instance it's based on observed opinions, with references. Now let's leave this thread to discussion of the OT.

    Expected price now "Mid-Twenties" for Slate truck

    Fair enough. There's where our opinions diverge. I'm saying value is objectively the amount paid by the buyer, not what someone else thinks the buyer should have paid.

    Saw that. 🤔 To their defense, price isn't determined by cost, rather it's determined by what the market will bear If cost is so low they can do penetration pricing AND make a profit, that's pretty impressive!

    Expected price now "Mid-Twenties" for Slate truck

    Good luck with that! It's considered the most reliable engine they offered in those years, so the only way to go is down from there. The Actual Value of a specific car is is known precisely when a sale happens at an agreed-upon price. THAT is the value logic, plain and simple. As illogical...

    Production Date Poll: When will Slate Truck production begin?

    My heart says November. My head says February. I split the difference.

    Is Slate the name of the truck or the name of the company building it?

    D'oh. 🤦‍♂️ Makes sense when you put it that way.

    Slate's Entire Marketing Campaign is Completely Wrong

    Posted without comment, because a promotional picture of a guy putting flower stickers on a Slate says enough on its own.

    Expected price now "Mid-Twenties" for Slate truck

    The value may not be there for you. That's perfectly reasonable. 30K+ for a 90s Civic is insane!... for me. For someone else it must not be. See also: https://bringatrailer.com/auctions/ You picked a Ford Ranger. Perfect example! That truck has a Cologne engine. I know about that engine...

    Will the SUV/Fastback Roofs be available with no window and no extra seats??

    The Cargo Kit is the Panel Van option. Question number 2 (after AWD) of the Five Top Questions People Ask in the Rich Rebuilds video was whether you can order the SUV Kit without the seats. Her answer (paraphrased) is yes, you can get the Cargo Kit instead of the SUV Kit to have that. Link...

    Adding a screen for AA/Carplay is WAY cheaper than I thought it would be

    Does anyone know if any of these screens specifically has the ability to withstand extreme cold / heat so it can be left in the car during extreme weather?

    Aptera-style solar panels in SUV option.

    One of the main reasons I'm on here is because I like to Learn New Stuff. Today I discovered there's an energy "duck curve". Who knew?! Thanks!

    It can easily be converted into an SUV. Maybe someone like the way it looks. Maybe someone likes the way it makes them look. Low maintenance is a huge advantage. There are countless others. Another way to look at it is what the Slate Truck can't do, like require a transmission repair. Those...

    Will Slate provide an AWD Retrofit Kit for the OG Slate Truck?

    You could, but i think that may be missing @JoeUser's point. I think what @JoeUser is saying is that for the OG Slate Truck to accept a DIY AWD Kit the truck -- that specific model -- would need to have certain attributes that may not be (and likely aren't) built into the truck. @JoeUser...

    How much day-to-day technology is enough?

    The predecessor was called Remote Start. Press a button on the remote and the car starts. Remote Start predates smartphones, much less Connected Vehicles.

    Slate portfolio speculation

    On the Bright Side, tilting a dump bed by hand builds character. ;)

    Expected price now "Mid-Twenties" for Slate truck

    Comparing a brand new Slate EV truck to a 27-year-old F-150 requires ignoring a lot of attributes of the Slate and the F-150. The Slate's attributes add a lot of value. That's just reality too.
