Soon to be added to that list, the army of Redditors that insist the Slate truck is the ideal vehicle for them.

People report struggling to buy a Ford Maverick. Shadowy organizations can't stand it that Americans demand Kei Trucks and get legislation so they can't get them. Increasingly I see rural people driving compact cars... Maybe they'd like a big-ass truck but they can't afford one at $90k.

Not having power windows or a radio with Android Auto/Apple Carplay was a mistake. It would have added $1,500 to the price, but those features are big quality-of-life improvements.

The Ford Maverick starts at like $2k more than the Slate truck.

... and that's very little compared to most alternatives on the market.

Yeah, mainly I mean I don't get the hype over it. At $28k with no EV tax credit it makes no sense to me. Just get a Maverick, it's actually got features.

My original point was that I expect a big difference in people's stated vs observed preference on this one.

Maybe if it was priced like a Nissan Versa.
