Congrats man! I got the invite two days ago, but had to leave town for a week. Wanted to do test drive and see a couple colors in person before proceeding, but closest demo center is 3+ hours away, either near Charleston, SC or Raliegh. Either way it's a haul for a 15 minute drive. I live in...

Yep, same email for me. Day 1, within an hour of launch and will know my fate by the end of June. Apparently it is not only driven by how early you ordered or prior ownership (2 x R1Ts here), but how close you are to test drive. I'm in Charlotte and we now have a service center here and i...

I'm 6'3", and i can tell you that I laid down in the one at the Chicago event and I'd have to sleep on a diagonal, or push the front seats all the way up and either sleep with head at rear of R2 and feet hanging over by the front console, or find something to put in between front seat being...

I stand corrected! You're right, first world problem. And i'm not trolling, just still on the fence on the R2. Originally put deposit down thinking it would be better for my son in Chicago given the smaller size and the fun with parking in Chicago, but he bought my 22 R1T and is not interested...

Interesting. If i put in my reservation date and time and am not holding out for specific launch performance flexible, I'm July 14 estimate. If i put in performance specific, it moves to July 18. If wait for lidar, Dec 31st 2026. Problem for me is that i'm torn between getting R2 sooner and...

Well I think I may get an early invite to place my order for the R2 given my first day reservation and having owned two prior R1T's, the current one being a 2024 Quad fully loaded, off road package and even factory full Stealth PPF. Sticker was roughly $96k. Given the R2 pricing with the...

I had a clicking sound from inside that was definitely coming from the rear and it would occur up to about 10-15mph, then go away. The service center inspected the rear drive units and determined that the sound was coming from the left and right module disconnects. They removed them and replaced...

Thanks for quick reply.

Can you let me know where you got the third brake light setup and how it's hooked up? I'm assuming it is either wireless and has some sensor, or it is wired and you have to may need to take off when you open the tent? I have an Ikamper mini on my R1T bed and plan on a long trip later this summer...

Aaah! Didn't think about the R1T vs R1S ride difference when evaluating the R2. Have had two gen 1 R1Ts, latest one a 2024, and I love the ride, especially on long trips. Perhaps it will be best to do a test drive when they open up. The 2024 goes in for service tomorrow, and hoping they give me...

I saw the R2 in Chicago downtown showroom. To me it was quite a bit smaller than I thought it would be and the interior trim not as plush as my two first gen R1Ts. That being said, my 6'7" son fit in both the front and back seats with ease and had plenty of room. The other disappointment was...

I realize that comfort is subjective, but I have had my Gen 1 R1T for years now and have made several 15 hour straight trips to and from Charlotte and Chicago and i must say that the ride in the R1T has been extremely comfortable. I don't get any fatigue or back pain. Do get tired, but I am not...

I hear you! I'm almost 68, and still use the R1T for hauling stuff and doing projects, but wonder how long the technology of the gen 1 will be supported. It clearly will not have the autonomy that the R2 has. I am also wondering if on the top level launch R2 that currently does not have the...

I am seriously thinking of trading my 24 R1T for the R2 launch edition, launch green, but would like to at least see one in person and sit in it. I had a 22 R1T Launch Edition that my son in Chicago has now. I thought it would have been better to wait for the smaller R2 for him to buy vs him...

So i think they got the dimensions flip flopped on the width of the R2. The dimensions with the mirror folded is wider than with them out. Someone's going to lose their proofreading job!
