two words: not bad...

the Count's not so hot take:
- first thing you should do is disable the lane assist (it is very aggressive and misreads lane borders).
- second thing to do: if you're not using the 3rd row put those seats down or else you're vision is blocked by the 3rd row headrests.
- With aplomb and road 21s, it cut through 6 inches of snow on my unplowed drive as well as the 20 inch high county snow plow bank where the drive meets the road.
- ride quality: soft and meandering on 4-lane roads 60-80 mph; nimble and responsive on curving country roads.
- noise: no more wind noise than our GLS or F-150. The motor sounds will take getting used to but are not terrible. However, there is a lot more noise than any other vehicle I've owned coming from salt, slush, and road gravel into the wheel wells.
- panel gaps: nothing too bad but not quite as tied down as I would expect for a "luxury" brand.
- Chicago SC delivery team was amazing.
the Count's minor gripes:
- R1S rendering on the driver's screen is not the color of the vehicle.
- fixed headrest (1975 called and also suggests a bench front seat).
- L1 charging, holy hell... I assume it takes a while for the software to learn my house but in the first 55 minutes it lost 4 miles.
