There were a few with the Forest Edge interior (I actually drove a Compass Yellow with FE interior), and it is beautiful! I am still sticking with Ocean Coast, but honestly, you cannot go wrong. All the interiors looked beautiful.
This is what I'm thinking of getting. Please tell me you have pics!!

Awesome! Do you have to depress the brake and floor it? Or is it as simple as mashing the pedal?
Just smash the pedal and hold on. I was shocked at how quiet it was--we hit 91 with my window down and I could still carry on a conversation.

Looks like a batch of First Mile invites went out this morning - I received one at 10:33AM CT and there were still some times available even for today.

What about the pedestrian warning sound when you are moving slowly?? What's that like?
I heard it on a couple of trucks. It was very light, kind of pulsating sound

For anyone that was able to attend the First Drive events, wonder if you brought or saw others bring kids? I have a time slot for this Saturday and wondering if it'd be enjoyable for my 6-year old to tag along for the drive. The sign-up lets you register kids but curious on any perspectives on those who attended.

Instantaneous Torque, once of the many benefits of EV's!

This would have been smart I do have to say some of the guys there didn't know much one guy was trying to tell me the mugs weren't snow peak and I was trying to explain to him that they were... they are these stackable snow peak mugs and felt very nice.

That reasoning sounds pretty weak. Doesn't give great confidence in the reliability.
Or, a non-negative view of that could simply be that they didn't like people constantly opening/closing it which would obstruct other's view of the bed and other features while they do that. Closing the cover essentially blocks anyone else from viewing the bed until it's re-opened, so they might have locked it to "Open" to let the most amount of people see the bed itself.

So minimal buffeting with the window down? Just the driver's window, or any others down? I often drive with my windows down, but many newer cars have so much wind buffeting, I can't.
