Not sure if I'll keep on waiting considering how little the factory has progressed.
The one thing absent in their official photos is lots of people working or any trucks actually being built, although I don't know how old the photo is, but you would think it would be updated to see any progress; or trucks in production.

Not comforting, especially when the new Chevy Bolt is going to be released at an MSRP of $29,000 with all the bells and whistles as standard, and so far the estimated price for the bare bones Slate is about $27,000.
Don't get me wrong, I support Slate, but I want a new EV, not a constant "Production will start soon but we can't tell you exactly when you can buy one or what the truck will cost"
The competition is beginning to catch up, and it's tempting, especially if Nissan brings their $17,000 N7 to the US.

C'mon Slate there are customers waiting, cash in hand, and they will only wait for so long.
