Suggestion: DIY Delivery Center @ Slate Plant in IN

Would that be January or July? 😆

I set the temperature in the app to 28° and it added one more stop, not sure that’s taking into account that I would like it to be 65° inside the truck and not 28°

The things you don’t even think of when it comes to EV when you’re not an EV owner

That would be June, not July not January, back to the planning board

I only know because I can't run in EV mode on my Jeep when it's below 40F...it simply refuses to dip from the battery. Due to complaints, this may have been fixed somewhat in a firmware update, but I've never been to the shop. Bonestock firmware April 2021. My tail lights remain dim when Regen breaking. 😗

I love this idea. One thing to be aware of about the state of Indiana ... our auto dealership laws are still stuck in the 1950s. I haven't heard much about how Slate plans to tackle this yet. Tesla's approach 7-8 years ago was interesting (and successful):

I could see slate lobbying for an exemption in Indiana law for an Indiana based manufacturer to be able to direct sell in Indiana.

I would just take my 8.1L gas powered 2500HD GMC and a trailer. 8 miles to the gallon to pick up my EV. 🤘🛻
