I personally would not define it as a Truck. I would describe it as a Hardtop Cabriolet Utility, as opposed to a Coupe Utility.

That said, I’m a Aussie, so a truck is something with a rigid ladder chassis and a detached tray, box or platform.

Even if you stripped the quarter panel skins off a Slate, it would still have the substructure of a Ute.
