Congratulations!! Feel like taking a little road trip to Mount Airy. We can do some max pack testing? I'll buy you lunch. ?

Pics or it didn’t happen.

Also you can flex on all the quad motors by posting up your energy screen showing 400 miles of range.

You didn't say, so I'll ask. Do you like it?
I'll respond with a soft yes. Of course, I was thrilled to finally take delivery, but I still want to get a better feel for it before I really say for sure. A few immediate impressions:

- I'm very happy with the build quality. Vehicle is solid.
- To be expected, but third-party app support is lacking (currently limited to Spotify, Amazon, and Tidal as far as I can tell).
- This is one of those areas I need more time to assess, but Driver+ is pretty finicky in terms of being able to enable it when you want (this is coming from a former Tesla owner that used auto-pilot all the time).
- Ocean Coast interior isn't really white as much as it is light grey. Still looks great, but I'll admit that was a bit of a let down for me. I think that interior would really pop with the black exterior.
- The interior gets really warm. First order of business is definitely going to be to get all the glass tinted.
- For those of you still waiting to take delivery, make sure to take time to look inspect the vehicle while you're a the service center. For me, all the time was spent on initial setup and primer on how to use the console. On me, but it didn't dawn on me until I got home that we didn't spend any time just looking things over. Fortunately, no issues as far as I can tell.

Thank you! Lived in the DMV my entire life and have never actually been to Mount Airy. May have to take you up on that offer!
