  1. Slate at Fort Worth Stockyards - photos & impressions. First deliveries Nov-Dec 2026

    You're too modest. That's an intriguing thought and would be popular with me. A flatbed could be a terrific DIY platform.
  2. Slate Auto w/ Tonneau Cover Walkaround from Fort Worth Texas showing (February 27)

    Must be a cool truck because I think I counted him saying "cool" 19 times in a less than 9-minute video. 😆 Love the enthusiasm. 😍
  3. Blank slate narrative is a mistake, and that needs to change

    Your observation has merit. While I enjoyed seeing the slate in someone's hands, and I hope the Leno episode got Slate exposed to people who've never heard the name, I can't help but see it as a missed opportunity, or at least one that could have been so much better than it was.
  4. Article: Why Slate's CEO Isn't Too Worried About Cheap Chinese EVs

    That's perceptive and probably true. It's a goofy situation in the law, but if I were Slate and it worked in my favor, I'd take advantage of it by doing exactly what they're doing.
  5. Feedback on a prototype camper for the Slate

    I think this, or something similar, will be a perfect addition to the Slate truck. I brought up a similar idea in another thread, but you're WAY ahead of my thinking on this. :D

    That's a great idea! It would be like having an old two-door Bronco and taking out the back seat. The vanlife crowd might like something like that, too. I can see that space being built out for a camper.
  7. Battery Architecture Thought Experiment

    Very interesting analysis. Thank you. As a side note question, does the fact that Ford is not continuing with the F-150 Lightning maybe result in freeing up some manufacturing battery capacity that could go to Slate? That is, if Ford isn't going to be ordering from their supplier, and their...
  8. Carbon fiber body kit for Slate Truck

    This guy showed range to be significantly affected by aerodynamics with weight almost not a factor:
  9. Video: Slate SUV top rear glass hinge flips up + cargo area room / size (relative to hockey bag)

    And the music is annoying. That's it; I'm outta here. :cool:
  10. Will Slate Make Their Battery ‘Easily’ Replacable?

    There's also the issue of the high voltage portion of the system, not something to be too casual about. It's likely possible but not everyone has the knowledge to do it safely.
  11. POLL: What are you most interested about with the Slate truck?

    Pretty simple: I just want a small pickup truck and nobody makes one anymore. I might settle for Ford's Maverick, but it's still too big and too full featured for what I want, which is a small and simple truck whose job is mainly to move me around and only occasionally haul a few sheets of...
