Last time I had Ramen I could have powered my Tundra for miles. 😆

Yes it opens the Slate commercial with the smelly hockey bag. I think they are still in the design stage on the slant back top. Not many pictures of it. That is the one I wanted, without back seats and roll bar. I might have to go aftermarket, Leer makes tops to fit almost every truck.

Have you seen any pictures of the slant back SUV with the back window open?

Are you talking about the slant back SUV? I have tried to find a picture of that one with the glass open, and have not seen one. It should open, but I don't see how it's hinged. It might open the same as the other one. The other style uses the same window as the pickup, but the slant back shows...

What I notice is the Amazon Auto prices are less than 5% below MSRP. These were all Hyundai vehicles from one dealer, but I wonder if you could get a better price straight from the dealer. Cut out the Amazon fees. Hopefully it will be different if we will be able to buy a Slate on Amazon, a set...

It wouldn't replace the Sonata which we use for long drives and travel. We can pack the trunk full on that, travel, and get about 33 mpg. Most of my daily driving is less than 60 miles a day.

Yes, too many right now. 😄 I tend to keep them a long time. The 2012 Tundra is the newest.

For me it would be to replace a 14 year old Tundra which I rarely drive since it only gets about 16 mpg. I still need to haul yard waste, mulch, and garbage since we don't have trash pickup. My farthest trip I would need it for is about a 60 mile round trip. I don't need a 6 foot bed. We take a...

Is it still going through the dealerships though? The ones that show up for me shows the dealer's name, and "about the dealership" info. I think it is just Amazon letting businesses sell on their site, for a fee.

Notice the charge port is on the right side, an early prototype. I think what looks like a paper on the window is the front of the charger next to the truck, in the background. I wonder if the pipe thing on the roof might be a thermometer?

Looks so unlevel to me. Like I said, it's a prototype. Nobody could close that crooked tailgate. 😆

The level of the floor of the bed and the tailgate. I thought I said that. They don’t line up. The right side is a lot lower than the left side. It does look like a curled mat, but I have never seen a picture of a Slate with a bed mat.

I think Indiana also has some rules like this. I haven't looked it up recently. It might be one reason (of many) that you can't buy a Slate at the factory.

Why does regen change if it's cold outside? I can understand if your battery is fully charged.

I noticed the tailgate on this prototype wasn't level. The right side was an inch or so lower than the bed.

What are the new prices like, is there any truck comparable to Slate?

I'm wondering if they will give early reservation holders a discount. Do any automakers ever do that? Usually dealers mark up a new model at first just because there is a big demand. Since Slate will have no dealerships, we don't have to worry about that.

Maybe mid-June. 😁

The heat or AC has to be used to maintain a certain temperature range on the battery, so even if you don't heat or cool the cab, it is still going to be running and using more of the battery. I think some people guessed the larger battery may be in the $3,000 - $3,500 range. You can always add...

I was talking about new vehicles, but what good is a vehicle without a title, and you can't license for road use? I know of two tiny vehicles but they never leave their property. I don’t see them as comparable to the Slate.
