Yes, put mechanical on rear as well and best of both worlds for everyone and all van be happy. He made a great point on old school mechanical child locks vs improved tech of today.
I am in mechanical exterior is better love Gen 1 implementation.
Its always great to see more options, but if they dont come to market. I've ran the following on my truck for almost 3 years. Great people and very customizable.

Easily a 100 miles. Assume you go to “town” once a month. That’s how I often go and stuck up. Overall Costco does save a good amount but you need a decent sized family. Their credit card has great points and 4% off on EV charging as example.
Dynamic diode small cubes. You can change lens but went with yellow for snow. Used a cheap switch panel with blue tooth to turn off and on. There was a member that sold the brackets for the lights. Not sure if still doing it or other aftermarket options now.
This is where the industry is going. I'm going out there but after latest revisions to FSD, I think everyone that can afford similar suites will buy / subscribe in 3 years. 6 years to where my youngest likely won't ever own a car on her own, she will be 20.

Overall agree no regen would be best course of action on ice. They should have an ice mode.
Im glad rivian stepped up at least to get us snow mode. I love our M3 for my son but since cant reduce regen I had it slide on ice with regen starting to kick in. Pucker fast and I worry about him...
Swisstrax no issues unless using my quickjacks. The 7k works but feels a little dicey so after first time went back to one side jack on my rock sliders.
Something is definitely wrong somewhere. Depends on wheel size and tires but my R1S with 21's and mostly interstate driving at 75 is about 2.3 lifetime. My R1T with a mix of 20's all terrains and all seasons and very mixed driving is just over 2.05. Both are Gen 1 Quad's, driven hard.

My 1989 Mustang LX Convertible has been left behind by Ford.
The Gen 1's were developed in 2019. The hardware is dated but they are still updating software as they can. For $75K, I have 3 vehicles in 1 and I get updates still for free every 2 months. If anyone is upset, they are under 35...
The "teslafication". The main reason I dislike FSD. Doesn't mean everyone is like me but love the Comma AI experience a lot more than being left to what the AI algorithm thinks is best. Having esay input and set speed in gen1 is still my jam.
Overall my last trip on FSD was great but having...
