at least in April/May they weren't selling they were heavily discounted especially leases were super cheap. I did see like 4 on freeway in last week, none before then so maybe the reviews are convincing people.. happy with my new Dune with its flaws
It is a huge animal!
I didn't see a heated steering wheel listed. Is that possible for $137,000?$127,905 standard sticker price
GM vehicles do not need a "pet mode". You can just leave the vehicle on and lock it. They have a timer function that can be disabled. Ford works the same way.Really a nice looking SUV, and i'm sure does not come with all the creaks and rattles of my Gen 1 R1S. Build quality on my Rivian has really begun to eat at me
Bigger frunk than the R1S, much better range. More outlets. The only thing is it sounds like it does not have a dedicated pet mode and the dash cams are not actually functional yet. I use pet mode constantly for our larger berner, so if they can figure that out, i'd happily jump ship.
You are right regarding the climate, but the purpose of Pet Mode is for bystanders who see the animal inside, think it's trapped and in danger, and break into the car trying to save it. This is why Pet Mode exists so that there is a message on the screen for bystanders to know.
Most vehicles in Phoenix have the windows tinted so dark you cannot see any screens from outside.
Are there many busybodies going around breaking windows to “save” animals?
Oh yes! Haha. It was not a feature that was introduced ahead of time. It was rolled out by Tesla in response to many incidents of bystanders doing just that and Tesla owners having their vehicles damaged and the police called for that reason.
thanks, that's super helpful to hear to be honest. I have been thinking about selling off my R1S rattler for some time now. Good to know there are viable options. Probably wait a year or two for depreciation on the Escalade to set in and pick one up for 60%-70% of the original MSRP. After years of anticipation, my R1S has been a disappointment unfortunately.
