@DuckTruck When are you set to take delivery? I asked my guide about the impact of changing to FE interior and I was told it would delay my delivery. I am leaving it as is right now but will reconsider once I get to see some in person.
I'm not sure when I might see delivery. That's interesting to hear about the impact Forest Edge may have on delivery timing. I wonder if the possible change this close to delivery is what drove that statement. Any idea?
It is not light blue or white, it is light grey. The configurator makes it appear too white. On my displays the "table" picture looks light grey but several have mentioned it appearing light blue. You have to keep in mind that the white balance of the picture could be off and your display is not likely to be properly calibrated so don't expect colors to appear true.
Have you been contacted by a guide yet? My guide has told me I should still expect delivery by mid-late November. That is if I do not change interior. I do know she said some changes wouldn't necessarily impact delivery, but didn't say which ones. I was concerned about my feelings toward color since I haven't seen them in person yet. I guess we will see once they start test drives in September and more people have adjustments based on them. Thanks for sharing your experience!
Unfortunately not something they are willing to support at this time.
Good to have you back! Wow, two weeks in Hawaii sounds great! To be honest, if I could've switched places with you, yeah, I still wouldn't have. Besides, that could have really awkward for your family. I love Hawaii, but Normal Illinois just hit the top of my list of favorite fantasy getaway experiences of my life. And that's saying a lot. My Passport is kind of beaten up, with more planned abuse of it going forward, pandemic permitting.@DuckTruck - and here I was thinking I was the lucky one spending 2 weeks in Hawaii away from the rat race.... Congratulations on such an awesome experience! It's taken me a while to catch up on all that I missed while I was on vacation. I guess if I was member of the month for my pictures of the truck in April... you have to be member of the year!I guess my only question is were there any R1S sightings on your trip?
My Guide and I have been in contact quite a bit, but no firm date as of yet. I haven't changed a thing since I finalized my configuration in the first five minutes of it being opened to us. I have added pretty much every new accessory as they've become available, but the basic LG/FE/AT20's hasn't changed.
My thought exactly, the black or maybe even the ocean also with the forest edge wood i think would look nice,
Perfect, that's a big help. Thank you.It is not light blue or white, it is light grey. The configurator makes it appear too white.

Edit: perhaps this photo from the event might provide you a better idea (although if your display is off it still may not look right).
Due to Covid inter-island travel was still questionable when we booked our trip so we chose to stay on Oahu for the entire trip.... although I do like Maui also. We are a bit of a Disney family so we split our time between Waikiki and the Disney Aulani resort. This was a make up trip for my oldest missing her senior trip to Europe and Mediterranean cruise that was cancelled in 2020. It also allowed me to make up a shark swim that I had booked for my youngest that got canceled when we were in Hawaii back in 2018. We had booked it for late in the trip and it ended up getting canceled due to a small boat advisory.... and there wasn't enough time in our trip to have a redo. We weren't going to make that mistake again so it was booked early in the trip this time!
Hey DuckTruck, I had a couple of questions if you have any insight. Did they ever mention if there was a heat pump for the battery management system, or are they not concerned about that? Just curious if anyone asked how cold weather affects range, or if they felt it necessary to add later on? Also, did they say if the charge rate would reach 350kW someday with updates, or if needed an 800 volt architecture for another generation? Thank you
