Ford is promising a mid-sized EV pickup by 2027 with a budget price, made possible by new manufacturing techniques.

    I’d totally rather a company with the supply chain and mature market for parts. Slate truck is hoping to fill the low cost, no frills, extra customizable electric truck segment.

      Man, I hope Slate trucks sell like fucking hotcakes. The lack of creepy spyware makes that the only new vehicle I’m considering.

      … what? You just said Toyota doesn’t have a proper supply chain or market for parts? You do realize Toyota is literally one of the biggest and most mature car manufacturers and has been for years right?

        I’d rather have a Toyota than an off brand alternative.

        I think they mean they’d rather have Toyota, but right now there’s only the promise of Slate.

        If your argument for not liking a company is because of a partial investor being a rich guy, I sure hope you walk everywhere. Else be a hypocrite.

      I’ve been looking forward to the Slate truck too, really hoping it’s successful. It would be a perfect upgrade from my 07 Ranger.
