I was nervous, I had never seen that color in person.

It was a gorgeous day, and the wait was very short. It suddenly appeared on the horizon, and oh my what a beauty. It is subtle enough not to be obnoxious, but still have a OH MY effect when you see it. People stopped by to ask about it ALL the time - I love it. After 4 days, I am totally in love. It is exactly what I expected and at the same time, the driving is unlike anything I have driven before. First EV here.

Almost a year to the day since I ordered, despite my Compass Yellow - Ocean Coast combo, I was surprised to get it so soon. Actually scheduled for the Oct-Dec window, I was able to get it September 23.

I have only one defect discovered on the way home, the 3rd brake light/safety at the top of the cabin does not work. I opened a ticket for it but not too worry about it.

Included a few for details of the new Ocean Coast interior. Wood is black now.

I had last minute cold feet about the "white" seats, but they are not really white, more light grey with may be a slight tint (looks bluer on the picture but that is my camera). The clearer interior of the Ocean Coast makes the truck looks even more luxurious.

Any chance you can get a picture with the door open, showing some of the yellow on the outside and OC interior, all in the same shot. I've been considering that combination, but I'm just not sold yet.

Loving the yellow more with each new picture that comes out.

Happy to !! I know I had the same issue. It is a yellow but has that "orange" tint - most visible on last picture when in the shade, but looks like a brighter yellow when in full sun (original pic).

Such a pretty yellow. I'm not a huge yellow person but this would be as close as I get. Great looking truck!

Saw the yellow on the highway yesterday in SoCal, looks really great in person. I had the same feeling about the red, in pictures was not a fan but in person both colors pop in a good way! Congrats!

I especially like how the yellow exterior relates to the headrest and grab handle accents. Congratulations!

It looks lovely. Can you tell us what else about the order---so I can order what you did, when my time comes... We've just been reserved since this July so I realize it maybe awhile.

Compass Yellow has a lot of orange in it actually when you see it in person - it's not for me, but a really nice color overall.

The only thing I don’t like about OC is the airbag. Otherwise I like it more than my BM interior and it looks really great with the yellow. That’s a courageous choice, this is coming from a guy with RC.

Regardless I think the yellow looks good with this car. Congratulations.
