    The Slate Truck’s real base price has finally been revealed

    "the freight charge has been set at $1,450, which is the lowest destination fee of any pickup on sale in the U.S. Combined with the $24,950 starting price, and the least you'll pay for a new Slate truck is $26,400."

    "Ford is working on a more practical four-door electric pickup that will cost under $30,000, while in the red corner, newcomer REO Industries says it will sell a small gas-powered truck called the Runabout, targeting a base MSRP of just $21,500 - no EV incentives necessary.
    Even after these debut, Slate's small electric truck won't have any direct rivals, but success depends on how many of the hordes of internet fans celebrating this truck's creation put their money where their mouths are and follow through on a purchase."
