A $20k electric truck with manual windows and no screens? Meet Slate Auto
A $20k electric truck with manual windows and no screens? Meet Slate Auto
Owners can buy kits to add accessories and features to the Slate Truck.
I would buy one, were it not for 2 major problems:
- There's no way it's going to cost $20k with the Trump tariffs in place
Slate Auto, the reportedly Jeff Bezos-backed electric vehicle startup- yeah... I'm not giving my money to fucking Bezos.
Exactly my two issues.
I was so excited for a split second. I'm tired of every damn EV starting over $50k because they have to cram in every stupid feature dreamed up in the marketing department, but Bezos? Fuck that guy.
The one EV I would have bought is the Kalashnikov CV-1. The fact that it was just a concept car, and from Russia, were a bit of a problem. But as square wild-looking electric cars go, I would have sprung for that one.
Omg that thing looks gorgeous, it's a shame the company is owned by bezos
Honestly electric windows are just one more thing to break in my opinion.
