I canceled my slate order the day I ordered my Maverick.
If they had stuck to their original promise there would already be a Slate in my garage. Instead, price went up, delay after delay, and after seeing one in person poor quality.

Whether you plan on getting one or not, an attempt at a small reasonably priced ev truck is good for everyone, even if this one fails.

I'm not in a rush to be an early adopter for something as important or expensive as a vehicle from yet another techbro company, but I wish it success, even if it helps the next company rise from the ashes of Slate's pilfered corpse.

Remember the ‘Yugo’ ?
Little shit box Russian looking puddle jumper.
Buddy bought one for $100 right after the company failed.

He couldn’t even get brake pads.

It was an Italian design by Fiat (the people who make RAM trucks) who were famous for reusing parts. The same pads and rotors would fit everything from a '67 124 to a '82 131/Brava and the 127 which was used as the basis for the Yugo. Not Russian, but Yugoslavian. If your friend couldn't find brake pads, he didn't know where to look:

I didn't realize that Yugo stayed in production until 2008.
