The only thing I learned is that they will honor DIY warranty repairs - an industry first. Pretty cool.

The survey needed a None option.

Not concerned in the least. Also not convinced we'll see a 2026 delivery.

Sounds like Slate is not for you. I recommend you get your deposit back and move on.

This statement confuses me. Why wouldn't this assembly line be way more efficient than a typical one?

You're completely missing the build objective of this truck: a radically simple, low-cost electric truck that minimizes features and parts to keep the base price affordable, while offering modularity and user customization.

Seriously. My eyes rolled to the back of my head upon reading that subject line.

Me too. I put a deposit down on a Ford 150 Lightning in the first 24 hours and then watched a year+ go by as people who put deposits down well after me had their vehicles delivered.

You know the $50 is fully refundable, right?

Agreed. I already have a four-door hybrid Maverick. It's not an either/or choice, it a both!

My daughter leased a Leaf in Denver. Zero dollars down, 24 months at under $150/month (thanks to Colorado incentives.) The car was so awful she turned it back in after 12 months and paid off the lease balance just to get out of it.

I anticipate 3000 miles a year, 100% under 100 miles. Yea, I'll be fine.

I drive an '87 VW Westfalia. If I can successfully merge, you'll have no issues.

I'll be putting a deposit down - zero risk - and I love my Maverick. Still swooning over the Slate, but prefer not to have all my eggs in one basket.
