I was super excited to get on the list in Sep’19 for the R1t. A lot has changed since then, no longer tent camping, Covid purchased an off-road camper for beach camping, and over landing. Just returned to Texas from a Grand Canyon trip towing the trailer with a GLS550. Seemed like head winds every day, granted I know it’s March, but managed to get any where from 8-11mpg towing a 13’ 2000lb trailer. Felt like an eco-terrorist. Got back to Texas and swapped out the GLS for a new RAM ECODIESEL. Can only imagine the range impact on an EV in those towing conditions. I can’t imagine owning two trucks, so I changed my reservation over to the R1S. Still plan on towing with the R1S, but I feel I have options. Still adjusting to the mental shift from the R1T to the S. We went from the compass yellow on the T to the launch edition green on the S.
