I’m gonna guess $4k for the extended range battery. Telo is charging $3980 for their longer range IIRC. Recall that one of the forum members said that there was an announcement coming in June that will make standard range much more attractive. The conclusion that I jumped to was that they...

Cool. My brother-in-law was an early adopter of the Saturn. He bought it in 1990 thought it was a 1990.5 or 1991 model. His was an SL and didn’t have AC or PS. My wife and I bought a 1992 SL2 with leather and a sunroof. It was a great car though I do seem to recall motor mount issues and...

I disagree. A lot of people want a small single cab pick-up. I think both Slate and Ford will have success with their pick-ups. I am not waiting for the Ford because I specifically want the small footprint of the Slate versus the Maverick. Additionally, I like the hail proof panels on the...

A lot of folks are registering their reservation here since the 6/24 announcement. Do we think this is new reservation activity or more people finding this forum?

Guilty. This is me.

The Nissan hardbody is what they called the 2nd generation of truck that Nissan sold. The earlier Datsun’s had a single wall bed so a dent in the interior wall of the bed was a dent in the exterior of the bed. I don’t think that was actually a model name. Said another way, when you look at a...

My suggestion would be a set of cam buckle tie downs. Not as heavy duty as ratchet straps but much more user friendly. That is what most people use for hauling dirt bikes. Ancra is a good quality brand of tie downs that I trust. Also, a short section of chain and a padlock is nice to have as...

My guess is that if Carvana is the service provider that you will pay a flat delivery fee to Slate and Carvana is going to deliver it to the address of your choice. If you have a trade they will pick-up your trade at the same time they drop off your Slate. I sold a vehicle to Carvana, I live...

I think it doesn’t need a model name since truck uniquely identifies it. Back in the early days of the Japanese trucks I didn’t think they had names other than truck. Once they came out will a full size than they came out with names to differentiate. (I.e. Frontier/Titan, Tacoma/Tundra)...

Carvana is primarily an online retailer with home delivery as a core service. I don’t think they would be hampered by lack of density of the physical locations since most of their business doesn’t involve the physical locations other than perhaps as a storage site for inventory. Go to their...

I am really happy with my Tesla Mobile Connector that I’ve been using for the past 8 years. If I was going to buy a brand other than Tesla it would probably be Emporia. I have Emporia Vue boxes in both of my electrical panels and I have been very impressed with the company and their service...

Found it. Mitsubishi Diamanté

I imagine if Carvana is their delivery partner they will deliver it to your residence if you want. You won’t need to go to the vending machine.(Perhaps they would charge extra for home delivery?). I didn’t even have the option to drop my truck off when I sold my Colorado to them. They showed...

I drive by one going to work everyday.

Do you remember in the 1990s there was a Mitsubishi that looked more like a BMW front end then an actual BMW? I don’t think Mitsubishi got in trouble for copying the likeness of BMW for their car. I don’t recall the model of the Mitsubishi.

This is huge. I sure hope Carvana invested. I like how Slate controls what they need to control and outsources what others already have great solutions for. I have only 1 transaction with Carvana and it was 5 star.(Sold a vehicle to them outright in lieu of trading it in on my new vehicle)

Wow. Only 3 weeks left.

I absolutely love the Tesla Mobile Connector. I have been using the same one in 2 houses for 8 years. It doesn’t have all the connectivity you are seeking though. I do have WiFi circuit monitoring in my electrical panels by Emporia so I am able to see the gross electricity sent to the...

My take on the situation. The $50 reservation fee does nothing for Slate financially. Those go in to an escrow and sit there ready to be refunded or moved to an order. If someone adds the $250 then the $250+$50 is now a $300 deposit and Slate is able to use that money. These deposits will...

Well the crowd has spoken and determined that the price would be sub $25k.
