''Musk, Jeff is behind you''⚠️
Bezos does a Musk, but in sandals and black coffee! 👌
Slate Auto, a new startup personally backed by Jeff Bezos, launches:
A super basic electric pickup truck starting at under $20,000 (after incentives). 🚗
Yes, you read that right. ✔️
How basic? ❌ No screens. ❌ No entertainment system. ❌ Not even a radio.
What does it have? A phone holder and manual windows like in the 80s. ✅
- What else do you get?
- A range of 240 miles. 🗺
- 100% American made. 🇺🇸
- Option to easily convert it into a 5-seater vehicle. ⚡️
And the price before incentives? Just $26,000. 🔥
(For comparison: Musk's Cybertruck? Starts at $81,000!)
And now for the real question: 👀 Is Bezos cleverly using Trump's new tariffs to push an entirely US-made vehicle, at the price of half a supermarket trip?
Bezos is essentially saying: forget shiny steel and futuristic design, whoever wants a real electric vehicle shouldn't be afraid to scratch it.
First deliveries are expected by the end of 2026. 🗓
So what do you choose?
