Great pictures!! I'm on pins and needles about the frunk measurements - really hoping that it will fit my Lifetime 55 qt. cooler: 27" l x 17.6" w x 17.25" h.

Mine is white and was a lot cheaper when I bought it a few years ago! True story, a bear came to my campground one year and couldn't get into it. Of course he could have if he tried harder, but I think there were easier targets nearby. He did put teeth marks in my smaller cooler that I use for dry goods.

I just want a Modern Spare donut to fit.

I had noted that the SLATE logo was a decal, but forgot about it. Just went hunting through the photos from the NY crayola event to see if anyone got the VIN, doesn't look like it.
Could have tried to figure out which truck was newer.

holy mother of ..... what am I looking at? This thing is fully on its own weight and has that much open wheel well space? Is it massively lifted???
That’s truly a head-scratcher. I would have no problem fitting AT’s in that well. Gotta be something else to it?

I didn't really look up at it. The truck is bigger than it looks in photos. Not a monster like the rest being sold, but I think the cab is tall enough that it shouldn't be an issue. I actually am back to thinking about needing running boards for my mother to be able to get in if I am driving her somewhere.
With or without the lift?

so many interesting variables.

I assume the one at the event didn't have the lift, it would only be 2 inches difference anyway. Definitely higher than the Chevy Trax she normally is in. Thinking will have to have her with me when an event we can get in the truck happens, or will have to see when I get the truck how easily she can get in.

I have a sister locally with same limitations so I’m very interested also.

Some great pictures have been posted so far.

I got there at 10:15 and had to leave just before 11:00.

it was great meeting you, Harley! And I forget their names, but I met a lovely couple who read the forum..

Here are some photos that I haven't seen.

I grabbed some basic measurements of the frunk, but Harley has those for now.

I also tried to get the measurement of the tailgate open to the ground, but got, not surprisingly, strongly chastised for opening the gate. Oops! Anyway, it's 20" from the bed of the truck to the top of the gate. Maybe that can be subtracted from another measurement.

This truck feels like the one I saw in November. You can see that the rear window doesn't look to be sealed.

With the dent in the rim at 11:00, at least we know this gets driven.

Good point!

That low angle of the photo really makes it look odd. The earlier photos of the truck in this thread look more natural.

It was pretty crowded early on, but I should have tried getting more photos.

Not a problem 9suffix. Had afriend there, same, not allowed to open. She measured to floor, 29”. Sounds close.
