2026 Slate Slate Truck review
Slate Slate Truck: capability first, comfort close behind. Illustrative review
8.5/10 OffLot expert score
The 2026 Slate Slate Truck sits near the top of its class. Bed and tailgate features are useful every day; cab is quiet at highway speed. Upper trims get expensive quickly and fuel economy drops sharply when towing, so test the trim you'd actually buy. Starting around $27,000, it undercuts most direct rivals.

Twelve thousand miles in. Nothing has gone wrong, dealer service has been easy, and the towing stability still impresses passengers.
