Looks fantastic. I’m curious if the fender flares and wider stance will meaningfully impact efficiency. I’m definitely lowering mine, but still unsure about the fender flares

They will impact efficiency some, but probably not much since it's already a brick. I added aggressive off road tires (and went from 21" to 18" non-EV Method MR707 wheels) to my Tesla that raised the ride height by about an inch and didn't notice much of a difference.

That's a dying platform. Slate needs to up their marketing game. They need to take notes on how Lego saved themselves when they marketed Bionicle.

It does look great lowered. Might have to go aftermarket to get that look though. I tried to recreate it on their site but after lowering and changing wheels and tires, it doesn’t get as low as this rendering.

Looks like a kids toy to me. Needs an active suspension to be useful as a real truck and trailer brake controller, more.

Not ment for a real truck, most pickup owners don’t use a pickup for much more than a car anyhow

I’ll be keeping my full size for towing ect

I may have to do the same. I've gotten used to the adaptive CC, remote start and other do dads my all optioned 07
F250 doesn't have and would like to replace it. I also fell in love with electrics back in the late nineties when we had to approve them for hyway use and i got to test them all. Fell in love with the GM EV1 back then a fun car to drive but only a 45 mile range.
