Introductions & Welcome Thread 👋

I'm excited about this little truck as a second vehicle for local errands and hauling stuff around. My current car is a CRV, and I've had the back seats folded down for 5 years straight now. I basically never have more than one passenger, and use it mostly as a truck, but without the ability to get sheets of plywood in it. The Slate looks like it solves a bunch of pain points for me in a cool customizable package.

This looks interesting, I have a 2023 Hybrid Maverick

Looks like I’ll be comparing my 2024 LTX lux pack, copilot 360 hybrid at $28K 533 day wait, to the Slate. My Maverick will be a tough competitor to beat.

Current ride is a 2021 Mach E with 103k miles on it. We also own an F250 to haul a horse trailer but we recently moved into a large city and will probably sell truck and trialer.

The Slate would be a great city car for us. Use it with the square back SUV topper and no rear seats. Makes a great dog hauler as well as hardware store/grocery getter.

Not concerned with the minimal range, 150 would be fine for our city use. Currently I am charging the Mach E on a 120v outlet until I can get a whole house power upgrade from 100 amp to 200 amp service. For city driving that has proved to be more than fine. If I go out of town it does take time to get back up to 80% on 120v but has been manageable.
