How about it shows only while charging? If I'm driving whatever, but could be a fun way to connect with folks at chargers to share notes on common interests.

Ah that's it, I like it! Keep it to only turns on when plugged in. That to me seems like a good way to tone it DOWN just a tad, just a bit of cold water to prevent overzealous people from, like, filling their entire light bar with every conceivable achievement or something.

I'll add it to the poll.

If it were to do something like that I think I’d rather it be in the app. Maybe show nearby trucks achievements in the app in a tab that you could click on.

I seriously doubt this is technically possible. We have no reason to believe there are enough individually addressable LEDs to make this possible.

No kiddin’.
I find bumper stickers distasteful, mostly because too many people go overboard.

That said, this is tasteful. Kinda like Jeep‘s Badge of Honor. You get those only when you show Jeep you’ve traversed certain off road trails. Mind you, most of these are not easy trails.

But could the light bar even do this? I know it is multi color LED but can it’s controller dictate that on a pixel basis?

Even this guy appears to hate your idea.

Not a fan personally, I think the R1s are too clean to add things like that. We put the stickers on our cooler.

The other place where I feel like stickers are acceptable to me (for places you’ve been, etc.) is on the roof (interior) of the frunk hood: only visible when open, not inside of the car, etc.

Ah I hadn’t heard of this before, yes it’s very similar to this concept, more here:
