I had that, but after getting a chip fixed at Safelite, they cleaned the wipers and glass, and now I don't get the vertical stripe anymore. It must have been something on the blade at delivery, because it started the first drive home.
Also, enjoy your adventure now! No reason to worry about what might happen that won't cause bodily harm. But make sure you know how to use the patch kit before you get there!
Just general anxiety about it. No actual damage other than a few chunks of the 21s missing due to sharp rocks. And yes, I'm probably an idiot for doing that drive in the 21s.
I think we all got that email. Did not realize the implications (or worry about them) until I was on the top of Hagerman Pass a few weeks ago... Not that the spare would have held up on the way down, I suspect. For those saying we should have ordered one with a Compact Spare, here is your...
I received my R1S in mid-June, worried that any one of these problems would come up, and prepared to be disappointed. I was really worried about the AC noise, as I had understood that most R1S were having problems, and that the vibration in the pedal was alarming. I have been pleasantly...
Caribou Ranch 4WD Trail outside Nederland (north 7 miles). I'm an idiot and forgot to take off the aero covers. Carried much of the trail back home with me in the form of mud...
DTown: which Discount Tire location in Denver did you use? I'd love to go to one with experience messing with your truck, before they get their hands on my R1S...
I did that trip a few times last week for soccer tournaments and swim meets. The Kum & Go charging station was quite efficient, and the little side path on the other end of the parking lot is a good place to hang while charging. The Georgetown charging station, if you ever need it for that...
Can't believe I missed it. That is the only charging station I have used so far other than my house. Spending way too much time at Dick's Sporting Goods while charging, though.
My neck is a bit sore from the power starts over the last few days... does that count? if not, no issues so far. AC has not made any unusual sounds, and it was 106 in the parking lot the other day. That being said, I'm in Colorado, not Texas, so we have pretty mild heat here.
Just got a VIN for R1S at 10,5XX; Forest Green, Black Mountain interior with dark wood, 21s, quad motor, Adventure Package, underbody protection. November 2020 reservation date.
I'm a November 2020 pre-order R1S with quad motor and pre-March 2021 pricing, and they did move me up, so not sure what is going on with yours. Sorry to hear, though.
