Did it happen?

I sent a picture of my truck to my wife when I picked it up and she thought it was grayCrazy how different FG looks in different lighting. In shadows it’s a deep darker green. In direct sunlight, the lighter Army green. I bet most people seeing those two pics would say they are definitely different trucks.

nice! curious what your approx VIN number is? I have same spec coming and its in the 4500s.
Gorgeous. I will be driving through Kemmerer from Park City to Jackson in a couple days. Expecting delivery of R1S, LE, LG, FE, shortly. Whets my appetite…. Thanks.Had a great delivery experience yesterday. Not the best pics, but here it is…. LG/FE.

Heading to CO? Not many charging options currently on that route. I was surprised that EA prioritized a station in Evanston vs. Rock Springs. Way better for me, but just seemed Rock Springs would serve both the I-80 straight thru and the CO to Jackson/YNP routes better. I did put in a formal request to EA for Evanston, so maybe that had some influence. ?‍Gorgeous. I will be driving through Kemmerer

Oh interesting. 1000 later than mine. There goes my batch theory for my FE build.5590
Traveling from Park City to Jackson in a couple days. Met with the Wyoming head of transportation and roads and his team several weeks ago in Jackson. He presented the state master plan for E charging. The challenge is two fold: take care of residents and make sure tourists going to the parks are well served. Right now tourists with EV’s are staying out of the state, using Idaho, for example, to get to Yellowstone and the Tetons. Wyoming is losing tourist $$$ because we have so few chargers. Tourism is #2 source of revenue in the state. Chargers will also encourage people here to buy EV’s.Heading to CO? Not many charging options currently on that route.

My original was in 4500s and my replacement is around 5000. My 4500 was shipped before Lonestar but the 5000 afterwards (I’m same service center as him). Seems like it was a very large batch that didn’t necessarily ship out in order?Oh interesting. 1000 later than mine. There goes my batch theory for my FE build.
What was wrong with the “original”? I’m trying to figure out if mine was rejected and repaired. I haven’t taken delivery yet. It’s supposed to be moving to the LA service center this week.My original was in 4500s and my replacement is around 5000.

Ah got it. Well hopefully my 4500s doesn’t have the same 12v issue.My original was 4623 so you're not getting mine. It was a 12V issue - which one would think could easily be fixed and shouldn't be an issue for the new owner - but they were having trouble figuring it out in a timely manner. I suppose there is still a chance I still get it if they fix it and the new one fails PDI.
