That's... Not that great. For comparison, the 2022 Chevy Bolt has a similar sized battery (65kWh) but about 260 miles of range. The weight's a little less than the slate at 3,600 lbs though it still wouldn't be enough to gap the difference in performance. There's either some heavy drag introduced by the truck or some drive system inefficiencies.
To be fair, you really shouldn't be driving a pickup truck long distances anyway. They're for hauling loads around town. If you need to move something across the country, a pickup truck is a poor tool for it anyway.
