Fantastic news overall, I am very happy with the way pricing and the battery worked out

I'm thinking the people at Slate are breathing easier tonight. Because nobody really knew how Day One was going to go.

Given how slowly a new plant typically ramps production, I'll wager this easily covers the first half of CY 2027 production.

I was absolutely sure the website would be a carnival; but I found it to be pretty damn smooth. GG Slate team!👍

Right ?
I thought the first day would be a nightmare on the web server side.
But response and ordering went very smoothly.
Hats off to their web development IS team.

They go against my "cheapest vehicle that can tow" ethos, but I really like those lights.

I feel the Slate they put up for sale today is better than the one they announced a year (or so) ago. I’m happy to be part of the 1st 10,000 preorders today even with the expected growing pains. Great day to celebrate, Slate Forum members! Cheers 🍻

Wonder how many they have now? That was 10 hours ago.

Well, I had to wait for my paycheck to hit my bank account at 1pm, so at least ten thousand and ONE now.

I keep adding these lights to all of my Slate designs and I don’t know why. 😵‍💫
