Looks like Dallas will be getting a First Mile event. What about H-town! Sad. Going to call CS to see if I can get in.

Sadly I still don't have any notice of this event in my account nor have I received any email yet. Wonder if they will skip over me since my preorder is for R1S? I'll definitely be checking my account more frequently now.

I don't know much about the first mile events, but I'm about 15 miles north of Dallas so hopefully I can partake as well.

I have my address set in Fort Worth but nothing yet. I'm guessing it'll be going out primarily to early preorder holders first like some of the other events.

Is this a full on first mile event, or just mobile demo drives?

By asking CS really nicely over and over again I got in to first mile in Sonoma, CA. And I don’t even live in the same country

It is a First Mile Mobile Drive that says Dallas but when it booked it showed a Plano address. I then requested to meet them at the Service Center in Dallas which they agreed to do it there.

I originally tried to book it with my Fort Worth home address but it did not like the zip code. April 6th for me.

I received the invitation via email at 1:38 PM.

I had sent them an email requesting to know which color between Red, Blue and White would get me a truck earlier this week which may have triggered an invite for me. :rock: :clap:

I hope everyone in the DFW area gets an invite.

I live in Fort Worth and don’t have anything on my account page either. I have a relatively late reservation, Jan 15 2022, but may try to contact customer service to see if I can join in.

That would be even better for me, i'm in Allen. Hitting up CS now to see if maybe I can get an invite. Thanks for the heads up!

Ahh. Got it. They probably aren’t going to have any more First Mile events anymore due to the costs, so individual test drives make sense. Glad that some of my fellow Texans get test drives. I am not confident they will be able to do test drives in all of the large cities in Texas. I would love to get a test drive if I can, but at this point I will take the car without one.

Ya’ll please post pics! And if you can request a specific color, can someone please request a red, yellow, or limestone R1T that would be appreciated. We need more pics of these colors!

From CS: "Invitations going to preorder holders being prioritized based on their location, preorder date, and location. Rest assured, more invitations will be going out so I would definitely keep a close eye on your email!"

If it is like what they did in San Diego, they do it in waves. So, do keep your eye out. You may be getting something in the next few days.
