  1. Slate Hires New CEO Peter Faricy. Ex-CEO Chris Barman appointed new role

    rip. Get ready for the bean counters to ruin it. It was a good run guys.
  2. Will the bigger battery option reduce towing and payload capacity?

    2015 Honda CRV (1.5x) 2015 Honda Accord (1.0x) 2011 Ford ranger (last year saaad 2.0-6.0x) 2015 Toyota Sienna (3.5x) 2015 Suzuki Vitara (Only the 4 door exists now... 1.5-2.5x) And the 2015 Tacoma i4? 3500lb.
  3. Will the bigger battery option reduce towing and payload capacity?

    How is that possible? A 1995 Toyota Pickup had a 115hp 2.2L i4 engine, rear drum brakes, and was even smaller than the slate. It came with a 3500lb towing rating. 3.5x the Slate. Of all the Slate figures, including the mediocre payload capacity, the 1000lb towing rating is the one that stands...
  4. Bench seating for front

    No bench seat from Slate please. That would be too much scope creep with all the additional safety equipment and testing that would drive up cost. Let the aftermarket handle it.
  5. The Donut Story Continues.

    They literally just showed it to be untrue beyond any doubt.

  7. Test drive

    Hopefully the Warsaw plant will have a demonstration center. I'd love to visit the factory. Seems like offering that opportunity would fit well in their "American manufacturing" mantra. "Hey American, come check out our American utility truck at our American factory! It'll be a fun time!"
  8. Home Level 2 charging from generator outlet

    Could you do it? Yes. Should you do it? No. Just take off the generator box feed and replace it with a hardwired EVSE because it will be safer, more reliable, and a better user experience for a very small amount of time expense and effort. But your life is yours, I can't tell you how to live...
  9. The Donut Story Continues.

    Guys this is very transparently a scam for a long list of obvious reasons. The lab results will come back and they will validate some but not all of their big claims. Building one off solid state batteries is not hard, labs have been doing it for decades. That doesn't prove anything. They will...
