    240v Plug Type

    Totally agree with the plug for the truck but I was referring to the input plug which appears to be a standard 3-prong 120 vAC. I then believe that you can use the Nema 14-50 truck plug with other input sources.

    Slate isn't building the truck for us

    I had to order my 2-door truck and only wanted one option or accessory the trailer tow package. Now I don't tow very often and still need a solo truck to carry some things. 2=doors and no accessories is just fine with me.

    Who’s Reserving the Slate EV: Everyday Americans, Young Professionals, New Drivers, Contemporary Seniors, Auto Enthusiasts

    Have been interested in EV for years but the price tag for a small truck is unheard. Have an older Silverado WT and it has roll up windows, so that's my selling point.
