Not everyone has access to at home charging, such as renters. Iām fortunate enough to live across street from a dealership with level 2 chargers, but if not, that would greatly reduce my confidence in owning an EV. I still think fueling stations could include a few DC fast chargers to raise the...
I still donāt understand why the big oil companies donāt install fast chargers more often. They can set the price to make some money & get the residual business as well. I get that the initial installation is very costly, but economy of scale should come into play at some point.
Quite a few Samās Club & Walmart locations have Electrify America DC Fast chargers. I really wish the media reporting things got their facts straight before spouting disinformation.
Great interview, pricing comments aside. Even if itās under $30K, still a helluva deal! I get more excited every time I talk to someone who hasnāt heard of Slate yet. I like to consider myself an EVangelist!

Went to Navy Pier this weekend to see the Slate up close. The cloth interior looks durable & comfortable. (It was a preproduction Slate, so couldnāt sit in it.) Itās a very robust vehicle.
Iām looking forward to having a vehicle for my local running around & short trips. My EV6 will be for...
Absolutely! My EV6 is a 1st year model, Iāve had some interesting teething issues, but Iāve already put 78K+ miles on it in less than 4 years, so I can handle a 1st year Slate!
Totally understandable! Thereās something visceral about a manually operated vehicle. I have a ā62 Studebaker Lark, manual steering, brakes, 3 on the tree, no AC, no screens, manual locks & windows. Itās very interesting piloting this machine down the road, the physical connection you have with...
I have an EV6 that I love, but in my everyday life, I could use a vehicle I can haul bigger things & not worry about the interior of my car. Also, I love the simplicity of the idea, my EV6 has all the tech I need & itās not all foolproof. The Slate is closer to my ā62 Studebaker Lark in basic...
