This doesn’t answer the question. The question was “why is the lighting tied to the hud?” Your answer is effectively “because It’s wired with the HUD.” Plus a wee bit of what I read as condescension.

I don't know why people keep insisting things are software issues when it's hardware that isn't shipping and software can be addressed in future updates. HUD is not working in AR mode yet, period, and I'm not aware of anyone having seen a working prototype of a fully enabled HUD - only the...

Just to clarify - Without HUD, there ARE some missing lights. Most of the LED strips are not there. In fact, I think the only LED strip you do get in the base package is the one "overhead" between the driver and the passenger. But the ones in the doors and along the top of the dash are not...

I’m a .wav

You're probably right that I'm under-appreciating the frunk space of Air. My 2017S (AWD) has a pretty minimal frunk and I don't use it for anything, really, besides spare cables and an emergency tire pump. As a result it gets opened only a couple of times a year and is never used for "normal"...

AR HUD is definitely not a thing just now.

Sorry to disappoint, but the event as I understand it is called "Everybody Drives Air Event" and is explicitly non-Gravity related.

Oh, Porsche is also an alternative. I have liked the look of the Taycan and the all-new one could be interesting, especially in a Cross Turismo version. But they are small. But if Gravity drifts into 2026, the new electric Cayenne could also come into play.

Can I ask how the payments work on that? Like, did you buy the first one and they are giving you a trade-in against the DE?

did the HUD work in them?

Well, I have to admit it - I am starting to think about a Gravity Plan B. I just don't have a ton of confidence I'm going to get this car any time soon. There's a very real possibility this gets dragged out into 2026. Gosh, I hope I am wrong, but at a certain point I have to wonder: Maybe...

My guess is that some part of the design or certification of certain components was necessary to apply for CARB and held up the ability to even put in the application.

@borski - forgive me if this has already been answered, but what happens to your GT when you receive your DE? Will you keep both? Or are you trading it in for the DE? Or has it mostly just been a placeholder car while you waited for your "real" one?

Who wins the poll if there aren't actually any GDEs delivered in May? ;) (I know there have been one or two stunt deliveries but there's precious little information on those, so it's debatable whether or not they count)

There is a massive mess of construction on 495 right as you leave the Lucid studio at Tyson's Corner, so, uhhh, yeah.

I'm planning on doing a color change PPF. I am wondering if that will be better or worse if I drive it around for a bit first. Not knowing when this thing is going to arrive, plus just getting impatient while I wait, is a complicating factor.

How important is it not to drive it before applying PPF? Is it the risk of getting a chip that might show through the PPF or is it that the cleaning gets more complicated, possibly requiring a clay bar?

Last week, I found to my surprise and delight that my GGT order (Black, Tahoe, 21/22, loaded except technology package, add power outlets) had flipped from "Order Confirmed" to "In Production" and I was able to view a VIN number. When I test drove last Friday, someone from corporate...

The cars demo'ed in Tysons were all GTs *with the HUD option* so they had the full lighting package. Without the HUD there are no LED strips in the doors. As to the "party bus" comment, I guess I'll concede it's just a cosmetic feature, but so is a lot of stuff in a >$100K luxury vehicle. A...

Thanks for your impressions, @HaltheAerialist. Yours is a balanced review and I appreciate it. It is forcing me to look deeper into my own impressions of Gravity to make sure I am not myself getting carried away by hype. Thanks for the reality check. I'm also happy for you that you seem to...
