Just picked her up 2 weeks ago, and had the wrap & tint done by Scott Solar Auto Spa in Dallas (highly recommended). I love this truck!!

It’s a mix of Xpel Stealth and Ultimate (glossy on the shiny black parts, including bumpers and window trim). I went with Prime XR Plus on all windows (including front), but pretty light all around (55 front sides, 70 everywhere else including sunroof). This is my second time getting a large vehicle fully wrapped & tinted at Scott Solar (first one was Maeve, my Sprinter), and I expect it won’t be the last.

April 2019 reservation, switched a couple of times between R1T & R1S. Very happy with the T. Adventure (manual tonneau eventually), 20 AT, off-road, OC interior.

Just wanted to share my experience so far and some pics! Took the R1T off road for the first time today (my first time off roading as well), and it amazing. There wasn’t a single obstacle it couldn’t get through, and the ride quality was great considering I was getting bobbled by rocks underneath.

This is genuinely the best car I’ve ever owned. Faster than most sports cars, can keep up with pretty much every off road vehicle I saw today…. This thing can literally do it all.

Yes it’s got quirks and small issues here and there, but the last four months with it have been amazing.

We have matching cars! Well matching assuming that’s a black mountain interior color I see. Compass yellow with 20” AT brights has got to be one of the rarer combos out there. I based my color/wheel combo off one of my Dream cars as a teenager…a Dakar yellow BMW E36 with style 24 wheels:

Hello R1Twin! Yes it is black mountain. Everyone who looked at us funny when we told them our truck would be yellow has said they really like this color combo. Carry on #TeamYellow!

I was on the fence for white on white , changed to yellow with ocean coast ,after changing from max to large I hope to have a better delivery this year instead of 2024 .

I plan to hydro dip all of the plastic trim in carbon fiber with gloss clear coat to protect the plastic finish.


cheers to all

Delivery has happened. Was a Max holdout until that dream was crushed. Recieved shop access same day and got this beauty. Got everything wanted except of course powered tonneau. My build is late 2022 and has the silver speaker plates which look nice in the Ocean Coast. Super Happy, didn't find any real issues. Maybe pulls a little to the right but might ne in my mind from other threads I've read lol.

Amazing the difference in color with sun vs shade. All colors at the service center were like this. A close 2nd after seeing them all in person was Canyon red. Blue is really good as well. They had a ton of white and gray. I'm just so done with those being seemingly the only option on most cars nowadays.

Absolutely killed it in Mammoth this last week. Never needed to put socks on. Trekked through 3ft of snow and icy roads with no problem.

RAN chargers in Inyokern and Bishop were fantastic and worked flawlessly.

I swapped over to the 20" Dark wheels on my Stealthy Banana. Original standard wheels are now the dedicated winter set.

So I ordered a Compass Yellow from the shop last week. CY was not my first choice but when I saw it in the shop I jumped. I have been really worried having never seen this color in person. The pictures in this thread look very different from each other. My my concern was looking like a bright yellow corvette/sports car, yellow city maintenance truck, or a taxi (some of these pictures look like that) or just looking obnoxious in general. Realizing it's pretty difficult to take a photo and then translate the color perfectly on my specific screen accurately, I ordered a CY water bottle from the gear shop so i could get a better look. I'm actually very surprised as to what I pulled out of that box. It is certainly nothing I've seen on the road (not a taxi, maintenance truck, or sports car). I can't really describe it other than it's a lot more muted and less yellow than I would have guessed and very fitting of an adventure truck rather than a sports car. Still deciding if I love it or not and looking forward to see this actual color contrasting with my 20" AT darks, but so far I think I'm happy with my surprise.

I would never describe my truck as "muted" and I wouldn't use the water bottle as an example. My bottle doesn't look much like my truck color. Either way, if you like yellow, you're gonna love it and if you don't like yellow, you probably wouldn't have chosen it in the first place!

My truck came with the 22" darks and it looked awesome! Then winter arrived in Colorado and the 22s weren't gonna work. Managed to snag a set of 20" darks and it looks great and is a tank in the snow. Now I'll have appropriate shoes for each season.

Congrats on your new truck and, rest assured, you're gonna love it! And I bet you'll fit right in around LA...
