Not sure why you didn’t get more answers on this but I think soft shackles are the standard approach, don’t see why hard shackles would be a problem (though not my choice for a kinetic pull).

as I recall, you configured your preorder online. Then you waited 1-3 years for your number to come up. when it was your turn, you got an email and access to the online “shop” page. At that time you could either wait for your preordered configuration to be built and ready, or you could pick one...

Thanks Mark for the details. I would just add that with rock sliders, some things get easier. You're not limited to lifting at the jacking points. You can use a bottle jack to lift partway, place a jack stand right next to it, then add lifting under the bottle jack to get more height. Of course...

3 questions: (1) any issues with storing the bottle jack on its side? (2) why a scissor jack and also a bottle jack? (3) do you keep the compact spare in the R1S as well?

My legs work fine and I'm not in a hurry. The car was always more of a "nice to have".

It will make it to breck but be aware that 4000ft elevation gain can eat an extra 40 miles of range. I would just plan to fast charge in Frisco on the way up so you have nothing to worry about the rest of the trip.

Not related to the update, but you can precondition by using the phone app to turn on the climate control system. Is that what you want or something else?

Me too but it will still flash some of the exterior lights just to say hi.

Really hope this is about a lift or rock sliders, not a center console organizer or whatever

Hello March! Expecting to get the update in the next week or two.

Floor jack sounds a lot easier. I use a bottle jack and the “double lift method” where every time I lift a point, I raise it up until it tilts, then go back down and reposition the jack, then up again. I also do a 5 tire rotation which means only one corner is off the ground at a time...

275/60R20 is 33" diameter, the OEM Pirelli 20" ATs are a 34" diameter. Pick an OEM size in the menu that is 33", like the OEM Goodyear Wranglers.

Also because the "miles" number is meaningless to begin with.

Interesting. Jacking from Low ride height and putting stands under the control arms is not the usual way to do it. I'd imagine it involves a lot of travel to get the wheels to come up off the ground, then lowering way back down to get onto the jack stands. But it if works, it works.

Not sure what your beef is here. You are complaining about your Mach-E. People are reporting neutral to good experiences with their R1. Then you are extrapolating to complain about R2, a vehicle that nobody owns yet. Meanwhile, what other brand are you going to go with? So far, the only ones...

Turns out many people are confused about how big 5" is.

2023 Gen 1. I'm not even going to start keeping an eye out for the update until March.

I gave up trying to understand people after enough threads cross shopping R1T with sedans and hatchbacks. Not surprised by this one

Did you start driving and exceed 5 mph, but it still didn't raise automatically after that?

It's fine, you'll plug in your usb or phone and play from there, just like ... wait ... nevermind.
