That's disappointing for sure. I'd see if there's some legal recourse - or at a min, get something from LEER saying they'll honor the price when the cover is back in stock and treat your order as a back-order.
Well I ordered mine last Wed, and it finally came in today. Big box in the garage. Waiting for my daughter to come up with her 25 XLT hybrid and I’ll put it on for her. Too bad Amazon has them back up to $1150.
The photo doesn’t show it fully folded up. It folds flat up against the rear window. There’s 2 side supports that snap on to hold it vertically so you can use almost the entire bed. It covers up the rear glass but not the high brake light
The one on my Lariat will get some water in when driving in the rain , but it's very minimal. Water only making it it from around the sides/front. I have no issue putting luggage, etc in the back and closing the cover. Not rainproof, but very good.
FWIW, after I got mine a year ago, and my daughter then picked up her Maverick, I used the website camelcamelcamel.com to set up an Amazon price watch for me in case the price ever dropped down to the $650 I had paid for mine. They had been running around $1,000 and thought if it ever went on...
Yep I got mine and paid $650 for it and thought I had a steal. This is even better. My daughter will love it. It does a great job keeping things secure and dry. I also appreciate you can fold it up and still use the camera in the lariat with tow to see what's behind you. Nice that you can also...
Only $399! Usually $1100!
I have one on our lariat that I got a year ago, and I just ordered one for my daughter’s XLT. Great quad fold. No idea how long the deal will last…

I picked up a couple of replacement antennas from Amazon. We're on the fringe of reception for one of the last, great, independent, all music FM radio stations (WEVL 89/9 FM - google it, they stream too). I was hoping that a different, slightly larger antenna would reduce the noise and...
It has AC, power door locks and cruise control standard.
Looks like they're not offing a power window kit (maybe later?) so slow roll-ups for now (deal killer),
and also no power mirrors and no blind-side monitoring (double deal killers).
It wouldn't take much to make the SLATE more appealing...
Though not ideal. if your home has an easily accessible electric dryer outlet already in place, there are manual and automatic plug sharing switches that will enable a dryer outlet OR switch to an EV 220v charger outlet automatically. Amazon sells these for relatively cheap and can allow basic...
The problem is anyone on a shoestring budget looking for a first car, probably doesn't have at home level-2 charging as an option (apt? Condo?), so any EV, even a $27,000 one, is probably not the best play (a hybrid/PHEV or EREV might be better).
If you have the money for the SLATE as a 2nd or...
No power windows (yet)
No power mirrors (ever)
No blind side monitoring (I suspect they'll add it one day per insurance ratings, if they are in business that long)
,,, and the price doesn't include destination or other fees (that are often included in comparison to Bolts, Leafs, etc).
If you...
