Or they need to find some more 21 and 22 inch wheels. 100% of the shop vehicles are on 20's.

Edit: Actually there are 2 on Dark 22's. But still, very heavily weighted towards 20's.
I will say it again, anyone wanting 22 Brights in SoCal, trade me some 20s! I only have 1k mile on them!

While you don't get "pre-increase" pricing (i.e., $75.5k base), it is my understanding that post-increase reservations do still benefit from the same "free" upgrades that were paint upgrade offered for LE purchases (i.e., LG paint, non-dark 20" AT upgrades, and non-dark 22" upgrades). You also get LE badging (which, as an LE owner, is pretty much meaningless / worthless in my opinion as it's barely noticeable) and the free passive wristband included.

EDIT: PER THIS POST BY @Christopher, IT SOUNDS LIKE POST-HIKE ORDERS AREN'T CHARGED FOR LG PAINT, BUT DO NOT GET FREE WHEEL UPGRADES LIKE PRE-HIKE RESERVATIONS DO.

Both of the LE configs posted above have darks so no tire savings on those (darks on LE only make sense if you were buying them anyways since there is no price break for pre-or-post hike orders), and the only real benefit of the two posted are the badging and wristband key (included on both), and the free LG paint on the second one posted, which is likely why they are still there.

Pricing is pretty confusing overall, but for anyone looking to maximize LE saving or value, here's an overview of the "value" (savings) for the "free" upgrades that are available with an LE config (savings are in parenthesis):
  • LE Badging* (Value: $0).
  • Passive Wristband Key* (Value: ~$200).
  • LG Paint* (Value: $0 to $2,500 based on pricing for other paint options).
  • 20" AT Upgrade** (Value: $1,800 for pre-hike orders, $2,500 for post-hike orders).
  • 20" AT Bright Upgrade** (Value: $1,800 for pre-hike orders, $2,500 for post-hike orders).
  • 22" Bright Upgrade (Value: $1,800 for pre-hike orders, $2,500 for post-hike orders).
If your build doesn't have any of the last 4 items, the only "monetary" value / savings for an LE are the included wristband key and the LE badging (if you place a value on that).

NOTES:
  • * = indicates only available on LE / not offered at any price on Adventure trims.
  • ** = indicates not currently offered on unconfirmed, post-hike reservations (for custom builds) outside of the $3,600 "All-Terrain Upgrade" (which bundles the AT upgrades w/ RUS & compact spare, which is a good value if you want those two items).
    • ADDITIONAL NOTE: If you want all 3 items included in the A/T Upgrade Package, shop pricing should actually be ~$300 cheaper (at least for pre-hike orders, based on my shop experience -- they basically discount the RUS from $2,000 to $1,700 with those configurations -- see image below) if you choose an Adventure Trim vs. an LE configured with all 3 options, so it only makes sense to select those on LE if you either (a) value the badging + wristband key at $300+ and/or (b) are bundling with LG paint or one of the free tire upgrades. Not sure if the same holds true for post-hikes since the Adventure pricing (for pre-hike) is actually more expensive for pre-hike orders ($3,950) than the cost of the "All-Terrain Upgrade" package offered to post-hike orders ($3,600).

I would prefer a 22. 23s are more likely to be missing:

Wood trim on back of seats
12 volt out in dash
12 volt outlet in front trunk
Meridian branded speakers

Is it just me (Atlanta SC) but there has only been one R1S in the shop since late thursday and it is Launch RB/Black Mountain interior. Is everyone else in my region seeing the same thing?

Just when I -- and a bunch of other folks -- finally got shop access, the shop (well, my shop) has been empty every time I've checked since 4/27. Am I missing the inflow of inventory because it is being sold almost immediately?
