    I went away for about 5 days and didn't charge or drive the R1S. When I came home and tried to start the car, it gave me a Motor Fault Detected, unable to drive, and told me to call a tow truck. I did a hard reset to try to get rid of the message by holding the left button on the steering...

    I had to take a weekend trip to Houston with my family of 5 and rented a Mercedes EQS 450+ SUV 7-seater from Budget. I got what I felt was a pretty good deal at $60/day, $85 taxes included. Not bad for a car that retails for $104,400. Here's the link to the MB website...

  13. Additional Second Row Cupholders DIY Mod -- dual cupholder added to center console

    One of the shortcomings I think of the R1S is that there are not enough cupholders. Especially this is meant for families. So yes, I purchased the under dash tray from BestEVMod that has two cupholders so I have four up front now. However, for the second row, there are only two in the center...

    Just got the R1S this past week. Is it just me or is the only option to see the odometer is in the about screen? There’s so much empty space in the gauge cluster screen, why not put it there like 99.9% of all the cars in the world?
