That’s about how I feel too. Worth considering. My hesitation was reinforced, perhaps unfairly, at a prototype/mockup event. It wasn’t very long ago, and prototype had a little too much slap-together feel. I know it was just a prototype, but I was hoping for something that looked a little closer to ‘ready for production’ if not exactly ‘finished’.
New factory, new build methodology, new employees. I’m going to need about a year of consumer feedback, personally. But I’m glad there are more intrepid souls ready to buy now.

That’s my driving pattern too. Probably averaging <5mi since I don’t drive most days, but yeah, 30 is as far as I’m likely to go when not on a trip.
You might also want to check out the Telo truck. It’s a little more biased toward passenger space. It has 4 doors and a bed in the footprint of a Mini.
I wish the Telo was a bit more modular like the Slate design, with easily replaceable parts. And currently their rear glass is structural, so you can only remove the lower part of that rear partition when you put a shell over the bed, making it less like a normal SUV. I am also a bit more nervous about their viability/capitalization. Will they be around for a decade or more? Hope so, but not sure.
