PREORDERED!! 🙌 Have You?

I'm Day 2 and got Jan-Mar. Think I was helped by being in DFW area. Dallas and Austin are the two big EV towns in Texas so I think they always planned to ship there early.

I imagine southern California is an early delivery area too.

Pre-ordered. Didn’t see the “1st shift” Slatelet, but got the January-March delivery window. Always planned on small battery so happy to see the range increase.

If location matters, can I change mine to Warsaw, IN? I mean, the site does seem to indicate that picking it up directly will be an option, and I don't mind a road trip.

Same here. I also need to see a list of accessories prices or a link so I can dial in my options. 205 range!! Christmas just came early

The builder has most of the prices. Some still TBD.

Not sure of the battery size yet (still combing through), but my desired Garage truck is under 30k

Easy, there's only one battery choice.

Chat: "estimated 109 minute wait"

Reserved 4/25/25 with a Jan-Mar 2027 delivery date (WA state). Pleasantly surprised with the larger battery and final price. Can't wait to get ours! 🍻

Class 1/2 hitch - what can you tow ? 4 pin ?

It's not a Class III where you can have trailer braking, lighting, etc with a 7 pin.

I thought it said 2" receiver? I'm guessing 4-pin set up?

I placed my preorder a little bit ago!

Didn't see anything about 1st Shift.

Reserved on 5/11/25.

APR-JUN 2027 delivery window to Southern California.

Had a day 2 original res for South Carolina delivery. Was scrolling down and happened to see the "if earlier" box. Checked it.

I did too

Regarding my "Delivery Window Coming Soon", Yolanda D responded in the chat (which estimated a 77-minute wait but was just a couple minutes, tops):

"In the coming days and weeks your specific delivery window will be updated - stay tuned!"
"We want to give you an accurate window to plan - thank you for your patience."

Obviously, I knew I'd be waiting many months for delivery, regardless, but waiting for a delivery window is unexpected. In the immortal words of Inigo Montoya, "I hate waiting." (But the Dread Pirate Roberts did say to "Get used to disappointment.")

I did check that I'd be willing to get earlier delivery. Do I think there's any chance of getting it in 2026? Well, to quote Miracle Max, "It would take a miracle." I suppose I should stop with Princess Bride references now. Continuing too long would be inconceivable!

As you wish

 

[EV Trek]

I got that too

I thought it said 2" receiver? I'm guessing 4-pin set up?

Sorry, I forgot that 2" is a Class 3; just threw me off as the towing weight is so low and a 10% tongue rating of 200lbs...

I don't know why Slate isn't pushing the LFP more on its website. That's such a pleasant surprise to us long-time devotees. I'm thoroughly aggravated that they changed the names on all the colors though. Is "Pool Day" the same as the Atomic Teal I really really want? Who knows!
