Wow.... just read the specs. That is very bare bones!
Will very happily keep my R1T.

If it’s not painted what body is made of, aluminum? Plastic? Another stainless disaster?

I’d happily have one of these for a daily run around and an ICE pickup for real work the R1T can’t handle all for less than what a new R1T costs.

Of course it’s a big assumption that the production price point is actually as advertised.

Pretty cool. I’d be happy to see them out, even if not for me. What’s Slates website? Googling just brings me to the forum posts or news articles.

I love this! Reservation placed.

I'm intrigued. I placed a reservation. $50. If I lose it when they bankrupt, I can live with it. I think for a young demographic, this is offers a compelling value proposition (hell, I want one and I'm not very young).

I played around quickly and configured a fun Cosmic Slate ...

FAQ says every vehicle is gray, you can get custom pre-cut wraps for ~$500

Composite. Basically plastic.

Maybe it will be a Cosmic Slate truck. So many options!
