Just got this email from Slate: SIGNED. SEALED. DELIVERED?

[evtruth]

Yah I didn’t get emails ether but they have my address anyway maybe a lottery thing you think ?

Could be, but it's also a possibility they only sent the email to people who they didn't have an address for. Email marketing apps are pretty connected and sophisticated these days, so it's likely they have some sort of connection back to their server(s) from their mailing list vendor to be able to do some sort of lookup on whether or not an address is completed or not.

Hmmm true we will have to wait and see for now

Me either. It got delayed past the point where I needed a car and had to make other arrangements.

Same, and when it was finally an attainable thing it was too expensive. plus my 2017 Volt was doing just fine, and still is honestly. I miss having a pickup though, and the Slate fits my needs perfectly with the added benefit of being able to transform into a small SUV if I need to move my family around when the minivan is not avaliable for whatever reason.

I need someone to come out with a full EV minivan with crazy range for road trips with the family...

Just got it as well. Honestly though, they can send me all the junk mail they want as long as it's Slate-related.

And results in my Slate truck 😁

I think there may have been a problem on their end. couldn’t put my address in originally. Not surprised, it happens a lot. I mentioned to Slate and fixed. But I haven’t received that email.

All Im thinking is "what's in the box"

No email for me 😕. My guess … the gift might be a 3D printed Slatelet / fridge magnet. That way you’ll be reminded all day long of your new ride.

a "limited edition" slatelet for reservation hoolders would be really cool honestly.

I remember supplying my mailing address with them the night of the reveal, as I was making the $50 deposit. I've had a couple personal emails back and forth with one of their reps, fielding some basic questions about batteries, and one additional generic emailed promotional item that came in the other day. But nothing in the way of physical mail just yet.

I too already had my address in their system, and I did not get an email.

...the gift might be a 3D printed Slatelet...

While I'm a big fan of 3D printing for prototyping and small batch runs, I would imagine the economies of scale would kick in way before their 100,000 reservation holders for such a thing. At that point, it would be cheaper and much nicer to make something like a hard enamel brass pin with a Slatelet style clip back.

Not that I'm expecting a gift of that caliber or anything. A simple postcard that says "Greetings from Warsaw!" would be cool enough!

They did. It’s the VW Buzz.

Not cheap and I don’t what kinda range your looking for but it is Mini-Bus.
