I would upgrade, but I don't think telling my wife that I need a new quad because I want that fancy metal car that comes with the welcome kit is going to work. I've bought 4 cars in 5 years, I think I'm at my limit.
Counterpoint: These are model year 2026 cars, so technically it's next year already.

Isn't Connect+ supposed to be free for life with the Gen2 Launch Quad? Or was that just a misunderstanding—they do receive a free wristband and bonus fob, right? Or is it only commemorative RJ lithograph, and those ultra-premium Launch Edition valve stem caps? 😉

Yes to Connect+, no to the wristband.

My Welcome Kit arrived a few days ago. I haven’t even taken delivery yet. What happens if someone with a Welcome Kit doesn’t end up buying? 🤷🏽‍♂️

I’m planning to bring the fob to delivery next week to try to pair it with the truck. I can’t imagine it’s already paired.

The die cast model is HEAVY! While the kit isn’t super valuable or anything, it’s a really nice little touch for the Launch Edition.

Took a photo with my OG print and letter.

I'm still waiting for my adoption paperwork to come through.

I'll also settle for placement in a living will.

I think this whole thing is pretty damn cool for those that have swiped up into the Gen 2 Quad.

But, it's funny the entitlement in the comments on IG etc from Gen 1 Quad launch edition owners crying that they should also be receiving something for being the most loyal launch owners etc etc etc. We got a heavily discounted price compared to other vehicles/non early bird preorder holders, and given the massive inflation of the time. I think we got a pretty solid deal given the wait we endured and the end performance of the vehicles delivered.

Just my 2 cents...

Reminds me though, I still need to get my R1T drawing framed 😉

Completely agree with you. Early adopters usually get a unique deal that makes the initial wait worth it.
