Try reversing the truck. And preferably up an incline in conserve mode. I'm noticing some weird shaking in my R1T. When I'm in all purpose doing the same, it is buttery smooth.

Well that was fun.

HOLY **** that truck is fast. Like, woah.

Drove in a truck identical to the one I have on order, aside from AT tires/20" wheels vs the 21" with road tires I ordered.

Man it's nice.

Didn't have the newest software, but that's ok. My Pixel 6 in a case charged instantly on the charging pad.

Conserve mode rode very harsh in the lowest setting. Same with sport mode. Being that low is good for efficiency, but bad for bumpy highways. And the pogo effect on bumps with the super sensitive gas pedal is a real thing.

Did you just call to ask for a test drive?
I just called and asked if it was possible to get test drive. They said they do mobile drives out of the venice hub and by end of month they may begin to do mobile drives out of the costa mesa service center.

Great, but only to reservation holders?

Did they ask you about it? Did you tell them without them asking you?
They had pulled up my account so they knew my delivery time frame. I told them I was hoping to get a test drive in before we signed the contract.
