Slate Marketing is making me lose interest.

I know I can’t ship anything in the bed or cab to Hawaii. Lots have tried.

I'll be honest, I jumped to reserve the slate as soon as I heard of what it was. It peaked my interest immediately with its highly customizable nature, keep it simple stupid design. But does anyone else feel put off by the marketing? All of the ads are some highly metro version of this little truck. I have a little homestead and am planning on getting it to commute to work as well as pick up bags of grain, hay, chicken feed, whatever else I want to put in the back. I plan on putting some grippy tires on it and making it look more offroad than a starbucks runner. All of the advertisements I see are catered towards artsy, city dwelling people. I want to see it do a little work. Get a little dirty. It's starting to feel like I'm not a part of audience.

Edit: I still plan on buying one and I have the cash set aside. But its discouraging.

I just about cancelled my order when I had to watch Jay Leno shuffle around the Truck in a wrap with his name. Are they kidding? Is that their audience?

If there is one thing this thread validates, it’s pretty much
“all about me” world. Entertaining for sure 🤪
