  1. Actively considering cancelling reservation.

    the way i see it, is I really have nothing to lose by letting them hold onto my reservation. It's fully refundable at any time, and I'm not necessarily hurting for an extra $50 for now. In my most recent convo with Slate (they must be so tired of me by now lol) they referenced the Warsaw article...
  2. New Slate event at San Clemente CA - Saturday, Jan 31

    I saw a post on facebook from someone after the OC cars and coffee in January, I'll see if I can find the pics they posted. still the blank slate at that one.. agreed they should be better about posting these events on their social media
  3. Well they didnt say no

    I got curious about who these people are and searched up Slate Agent at Slate Auto on linkedin, not trying to be a creeper or anything but I found a bunch of them listed there. Most of the agent team seem to have several years experience at other automotive companies
  4. Well they didnt say no

    agreed. hopefully they pay attention to these forums and take some notes
  5. Well they didnt say no

    I actually asked about this too because there's a lot of car theft in Fresno, well moreso the bay area, and this is what they told me back in November: For the external panels, even though you can see some fasteners from the outside taking a panel off isn’t as simple as removing a couple of...
  6. Well they didnt say no

    I called in earlier this week and tried to push for more info, the agent flat out said there's a lot of internal conversations and plans that can't be shared yet since it's not publicly announced. I'm sure they all signed NDAs when they were hired, so they don't necessarily want to lose their...
  7. Anyone Else Concerned

    The CEO just interviewed with newsweek on Monday and shared this quote about the factory progress: " “Today, we’re finishing the last concrete pours. We’re in the process of wiring electrical systems for our robots and putting more robots in place. Remodeling office spaces to take them from the...
  8. When do you think reservations will convert to orders?

    yeah, a non-refundable deposit would make sense so they could gauge who's actually planning to or has the means to buy the truck.
  9. Q&A with CEO Chris Barman (Dec 16, 2025). Slateforums gets a shout out 🙌

    You can still send your questions to their support team, seems like they're the same ones who are answering all these Q&As. With this trickle of personal replies, they're probably just working down the list of 4000 questions. You can chat with them pretty instantly or email and get a response...
  10. Actively considering cancelling reservation.

    I believe the Q&A video started with Chris saying they received over 4,000 questions... that would be a looonngggggg list to post on their website
  11. Early deliveries to be region based, with early reservations prioritized

    It would be silly to think that a vehicle startup company would begin their delivery process by shipping cars across the entire US following on a singular "line" according to reservation number. It's simply inefficient and would cost millions of dollars to facilitate. I remember when Tesla's...
  12. Special Q&A for Reservation Holders w/ Slate Auto CEO

    exactly what i was thinking, i hope the stream isn't just reiterating information already shared
  13. Special Q&A for Reservation Holders w/ Slate Auto CEO

    I'm trying to think of questions only Chris can answer, especially if we have to wait 2 weeks to hear what she says compared to instantly chatting in with one of those Slate agents
  14. Special Q&A for Reservation Holders w/ Slate Auto CEO

    might be only for reservation holders, I got one but my husband did not. Told him he better reserve!

  18. What level of DIY are you planning for your Slate?

    I love the basic truck, but am personally considering a cool wrap, fastback SUV kit, and the higher suspension kit! However, I don't even know how to change a flat tire 🥲 lol I know Slates' motto is "We build it, you make it", so I'm assuming only the blank slate will be delivered and the rest...
  19. New touring event dates are up on the Slate Events page!

    Looks like they added locations for philly and sacramento's stops
  20. This Is So Boring Now

    I called them the other day to ask what the next plans are, seems like they have some big announcements planned to come out over the next couple weeks. The guy said their roadshow is set to start up again in October, but they're probably taking another break for holidays and EOY
