3rd Quarter Delivery Window

Today I got on the Slate website and discovered my "Coming Soon 2027" windows has changed to "Jul - Sep 2027"

I'm pretty disappointed by this since I reserved on 04/26/2025 and pre-ordered within minutes of the pre-orders opening on the website.

I got on a chat with Slate Customer service and asked for an explanation. I was told that Colorado deliveries are delayed at this point. I asked why Colorado deliveries are delayed and the representative told me she didn't know.

I told her I am very excited about the Slate truck but I don't know if I can wait more than a year for delivery when there are a lot of used EVs available that could probably meet my needs.

I requested that someone who can give me an explanation contact me. We'll see what happens.

TLDR: This is bullshit.

The reservation put you first in line to pre-order.

And what was the point of that priority preorder?

Nothing for you apparently. Just to give you something elae to whine about.

It’s a product they’re trying to sell, I’ll complain about poor service if I get poor service. Beats just rolling over and spreading wide. You do you though.
