Yes, that was part of the proposed modification. Adapting/cutting the foot and disassembling to cut off some length from the center, allowing it to collapse further. Not sure if that's possible since no one has attempted it, but it doesn't seem like a good idea either. The modification...

My theory is that they may have set out to make them compatible but something along the way dictated they could not be so they made the mounts different enough that they could not be modified to work. I imagine they don't want people attempting to modify the R1 bars, either the shape of the...

Yeah, that would fall under the "Incidents" tab. I don't know what the thresholds are though, so it might not catch everything. Like a bump in the parking lot might rely on Motion Cam and not trigger an Incident. A sufficient pothole at speed can trigger an Incident (ask me how I know), as does...

I took some additional measurements: A: 34.5" B: 39.5" C: 6.5" (from edge of shelf to underside of floor. Note that the shelf slopes.) D: 10.5" E: 21.5" F: 8.25" Other measurements: Width of cargo floor panel (between wheel wells): 41.5" Height of plastic side (vertical delta from B to A): 4"...

I think the key thing, especially for a road trip where you might only get 2 days of continuous recording, is to star/clip any incidents you think you'll want to save. You can't view the continuous recordings from the vehicle, only the manually triggered clips + incidents/motion cam, so if you...

Here are some pictures of the standard and Compass valve stem covers side-by-side. Honestly, its hard to tell they are aluminum. When I took it off my car, it was heat soaked so it didn't have the tell-tale feel of metal. As I've been inside for a bit, it has started to cool down and I can feel...

I just took my drive out to check. Road Cam records constantly and saves 15 minute chucks of all 4 camera views, grouped by driving session. Looks like putting it in putting it in park (and maybe requiring the driver to exit, not sure) ends the session and the next drive will get a new...

I don't think so. It's Universal Hands Free, it doesn't require you to touch the wheel at all unless it detects something it can't handle and wants to disengage (eg a high speed turn). It uses sensors in the rear view mirror to monitor the driver's gaze and alerts if you take your eyes off the...

There was a post a while back of someone showing the R1 crossbars sitting atop their R2. The feet are substantially different and will not fit in the mounts as-is, though some people were wondering if they could be modified to fit. I haven't seen anyone attempt that modification yet though.

Yeah, those charts are for the data in the spreadsheet (ie just orders). The header is probably just a typo from copy/paste as the Reservations sheet was created first and likely just copied over when orders opened up. If you want more detailed order stats, I put together a dashboard here...

The car has some baseline overhead but that should not really change as you increase the available charging power. That means if you are losing say 500W out of 1440W on a 5-15 plug, you'll still only lose about 500W out of 2880W on a 6-15 (240V) plug. Since the overhead is so significant on a...

The steering wheel supports vibration (eg for lane departure warning) and full actuation (eg for lane keep), not sure if the vibration is just fast actuation or a separate mechanism. As for driver attention, I think it just displays a warning on the screen and plays chimes, then eventually...

No, it comes with basic black valve covers. I replaced them with the Compass ones immediately. The compass ones are bigger and feel nicer than the stock ones too.

I started off using the Tesla J1772-NACS adapter (same as the Rivian one) and kept it in my driver door pocket too as my work chargers are all J1772. No rattle/sliding really. I just got the A2Z adapters (both J1772 and CCS) though, both of which come in a case. The CCS one will probably go in...

100 miles is just standard practice for paperwork. Your car will not have anywhere near 100 miles on it. Mine was 100 on the paperwork and 16 on the odometer. It's just a buffer so they don't have to worry about it so much if they need to take it for a test drive or two during inspection. Could...
