Test drives?

I assume if you back out of a DE you would be able to apply the deposit to another lucid vehicle

No chance of backing out. My comments were about Lucid's sales organization, with which I've had widely varying experiences (some quite good) but too often find very poorly armed with reliable information that you might expect sales people to have.

But I'm a rock solid fan of the vehicles Lucid builds and the way they service them, with three and half years of ownership to back it up.

That is no longer the case. An SA can convert a GT order to DE.

That is dealing with a refundable deposit, though. I'm not sure a non-refundable deposit for a specific model could be applied to a different model.

For reference, I was able to reduce my DE order back to a GT. I don't know if that made it now refundable, though. And it wasn't transferred to a different "model", but it was transferred to a different trim.

I doubt it. When the Gravity Dream orders opened, I tried to convert the order I had already placed for a Grand Touring. I had to cancel that order and place a new order, and the Grand Touring deposit could not be applied to the Dream. I had to pay a second deposit and request a refund of the first deposit (which I received a few days later).

That isn’t the case anymore. It should be able to reapplied elsewhere, but it’s up to Lucid; the terms say it’s non-transferable, but exceptions can always be made. Lucid could even refund it if they wanted to, heh. They just don’t have to.

I have two orders, a GGT and a GDE. I entered my DE order separately because I did it myself online. I did that because I didn't really trust my SA to respond timely, or knowledgeably, based on previous interactions. I am maintaining two orders just in case I decide to bail on the GDE (though I think that's unlikely).

I do hold out some hope that if I were to opt out of the GDE that Lucid might be so kind as to apply my GDE deposit to my GGT.

FYI my emails were, I think, getting spaminated at server level (and not even getting to my junk mail folder). I can't totally confirm that but I do know that the confirmation email for my test drive (thanks for the info, @037 ) was spaminated. I was able to recover that one (24 hour quarantine rule).
