I have so many thoughts on this slate truck. It's a electric truck, but it is the ultimate most barebones truck
00:00:07
possible. And then you can customize your way into the truck that you want. So this base truck will be $27,000
00:00:13
allegedly. Allegedly. And it'll be completely empty, bare bones, no stereo, no displays, no tow hitch, no paint.
00:00:23
It's just plastic, molded plastic. And if you want to change the color, you can wrap it. And if you want to add a
00:00:28
display, you can add it. If you want to add a speaker, you can do that. If you want to add power windows, you can do
00:00:33
that. But it is fully blank to start. The appeal is obvious. It's cheap and it's customizable. Yeah. It's also
00:00:42
beautiful. Well, that's debatable. If you go on their website, you can play with the the customization. Wait, did
00:00:46
you have that? I want to make the most expensive slate possible. Well, so that's the thing. Oh, you can't do that
00:00:51
yet. You have no idea how how expensive the most expensive slate is because you don't know how much the extras cost.
