Please google these products for yourselves. $800 for a hard tonneau cover is a bargain. The powered ones run close to $3K. Aftermarket. Now go and find a powered cover in a parking lot. My sample size is #LOLMinnesota, but you don’t see truck people buying powered tonneau covers around here...

Same!

I’m desperate for this delivery window update. I’m “late” to the party with a 2/19 reservation ?

Not quite as you’ll affect the Cd as well. A simpler way to look at the variables that go into the drag equation is to think shape, air density, airspeed squared/2, and size. Hooking a trailer up changes the shape of the whole thing (vortices between the vehicle and trailer) as well as the size...

Fun video to watch, thanks for sharing and driving all of those miles. I’m sure this has been posted elsewhere, but for those that haven’t learned this yet, the drag the motors have to overcome is affected by 1/2 the square of the airspeed of the vehicle. In still air the number that goes into...

Thanks for the replies. The numbers I massage for towing in A Better Route Planner tell me that most of the trips I take are possible with one long charging stop with the Max or two long stops with the Large pack with the current charging options north of the Twin Cities. You’re confirming that...

I tow my boat or pop-up camper all over the Arrowhead from the Twin Cities. Until our charging infrastructure makes a Great Leap Forward, I’m sticking with waiting for the max pack. Or I’ll have a Silverado EV by that time. Am I alone? Is anyone with the large pack using their R1T for towing...

I’m willing to bet that for most users the storage of the manual cover won’t be an issue save for the rarest of moments throughout the lifetime of their ownership. Only need to take out one or two of the four pieces? You’ll simply toss them in the bed Or back seat. For my use, and relying on 14...

That’s why I ended my post with “If enough folks say they want the manual cover, it will go into production immediately. Reward poor performance at your own risk.”

I can’t understand why anyone would continue to configure or accept an R1T with this tonneau. Look around any parking lot and you’ll see very few electric covers out there. Here’s my take: I‘ve had a manual tonneau on my pickups since ‘08. Not once have I wished for a coin slot or electronic...

Article in the Star Tribune and elsewhere today- Xcel to install 730 chargers around MN with most being of the 150 KW variety. I’ll let you do your own googling. If the RAN was up and operating or if this starts becoming reality, I could see passing on the max pack. But I’m still waiting on a...

I wonder if we’ll get updated “safe to drive ice thickness” guides from the DNR any time in the next few years?

Guide tells me I was assigned a guide as a result of being invited to peruse the R1T shop. I will have access to the shop until I buy one from it or my truck is scheduled for production, per my guide. I spoke with a family this weekend using their R1T in the same manner I plan on using mine...

I heard back from my guide this morning. I was told first half ‘23 still.

Guide assigned 7/22/22 for my 2/09/19 max pack reservation. CS chat convo 7/22 told me no changes on delivery window, chat was prior to guide assignment later in the day. My configuration is confirmed… What’s very confusing to me is that I was told during my test drive on 6/10/22 is that once I...

This answers many of my questions. Thanks very much.

Stopping in to say hello. Guide contact yesterday despite wanting manual tonneau and max pack. My configuration is now confirmed and requires me to contact my guide if I want to change.

Ah, I see. I promise to keep you all posted and I’m dying to see if I’m the only one in this boat.

“ “Tonneau We have two lockable tonneau cover options, both of which will protect against light weather. Our powered tonneau cover integrates into the truck and slides automatically with a touch of a button. It can also be operated remotely through our app. Our manual tonneau is easily removed...

I’ve been allowed to peruse the store for several weeks now. Despite the early “this invite won’t last forever!” impression, there’s been no indication that I will lose my store access.
